Coolest thing I saw in Arkansas last weekend: a biker-chick's t-shirt that said on the back does this bike make my butt look fast? She looked like a major ass-kicking momma, and her butt DID look fast!

Left my dog in a doggie camp when we were out of town last weekend and she's been acting like a dog ever since she got home. She made some buddies and I think they must have informed her that she's not a person. I'm not sure if I'm ok with it, though - she's not as cuddly as I'm used to-- but she seems very happy and like she had a good time... Bitches - who understands 'em?

Finally, whoever recommended the book (I'm thinking it was Tam???) Redcoat by Bernard Cornwell - THANK YOU so much. Excellent book - one of my all-time favorites. Brilliantly written with no schlock that made me cringe -- just believable character development and exciting battle scenes. Great stuff. A fast and very entertaining read. I highly recommend this one.

Camp Bow Wow on Irving Blvd. You can bring all your crap for your dog (toys, bed, etc.) and they are incredible. George is one of the owners and he's a super guy. Their website is here:

A fast looking butt would be a pretty wonderful thing to have. Maybe I need to buy a motorcycle.

OMG! I have got to have one of those shirts!

That shirt sounds rockin' ... and I can appreciate a rockin' t-shirt.

My favorite t-shirt says, "If you can read this, the bitch fell off."
I gotta go buy myself a new scooter. Brain damage is so in fashion now and my yearnings for it grow impatient.
Right.

Btw, meant to say yesterday that the White River is knock down gorgeous.
I used to go there when I was a kid.

barbara - maybe so. Maybe Tam will tell us how good it feels to have a bike that makes your butt look fast.

tam - it was pretty cool, and she looked hot. I couldn't think of a thing wrong with a shirt like that

will - yeah, the right t-shirt will spread good cheer

ben heller - wow - is that stiff upper lip comment? I'll keep it up, by golly.

dick - yeah, I've seen that one too, and it cracked me up. I've also seen one that says on the back "If you can read this, the bitch just passed you." LOVE it!

yeah, White River is wonderful. I wanna canoe it. And the Buffalo too. Maybe this fall for a birthday trip or something when the leaves are changing. It's near where all my family is from.

When we sent our dogs to jail while we were on vacation, they thanked us by coming home and REFUSING to go to the bathroom outside.

Like they were on strike or something.
