Sparky is a good lad, but sometimes, he does the wrong thing.
Turns out that he isn’t chipmunk-blind. Sparky probably brought the chipmunk in, and it probably left out the patio door last night.
Only click if you can tolerate seeing a guilty dog hoping that I’m a moron.
It’s embarrassing that the next mayor of New York City can’t lift 135 lbs, while a retired teacher in Ohio can bench 180 lbs. My brother and I are doing two sets of 12, at 140 lbs.
More embarrassing for Mamdani is that he made the attempt without knowing for certain that he can lift the weight. Not a good look.
Sparky had his annual physical exam last week at Apple Hill Animal Hospital. Dr. Grossman was more meticulous and engaged than my doctor. She is more understanding as well. She said that he was a little overweight, but he’s pretty active for his age so we shouldn’t worry about it.
His teeth aren’t great and he has a little cyst on his belly, so next week, Sparky is going in to get his teeth cleaned up and the cyst removed. Doc isn’t too concerned, but she wants to get it tested.
The doc called this morning with the results of his blood work. He’s good on everything.
Politicians like to spend other people’s money, and there isn’t political benefit in being responsible. This is starting to bite us in the ass.
President Trump is a real estate developer and is comfortable working with debt. Cutting the deficit is not something he worries about.
After Archie and Indy left, Sparky and I hung out for a while, then he crashed. Señor Piglet was exhausted.
Sparky must have been an only child. He likes novel experiences, but grows weary of other dogs playing with his toys.
Archie and Indy were good dogs. They liked to play and to nap.
I only left the house once during the slumber party, and kept a close eye on the dogs. Didn’t matter, they were fine. Closing off doorways wasn’t necessary.
The College Fix: Survey shows teachers despise ‘equitable’ grading policies
‘Equitable’ grading is a policy that was being implemented prior to the Covid lock-down. It is designed to never fail a student, regardless of the student’s lack of aptitude or effort. During and after the Covid lock-down, principals embraced the policy to hide their failure.
‘Equitable’ grading was encouraged by the federal Department of Education and implemented by school districts without anyone ever talking to teachers.
This is breakfast of the last day. It’s long, but it captures everyone just hanging out.
RCP: It’s Feeling Really Like 1988 To Me Right Now, Democrats No Longer In Touch
The DNC is eager to rule over a land nobody wants to live in.
Dogs need a couple of long walks, and I am so pleased that they don’t mind sitting down by the creek, just relaxing.
