I swear that if some idiot sends me one more email about an ebook not working without telling me the name of the book, and if it is a student or instructor I am going to find the hard covered book and shove it…. oh, never mind.

Dear Dogs:
When I say to move, it means go someplace else, not switch positions with each other so there are still two dogs in the way.
The dishes with the paw print are yours and contain your food. The other dishes are mine and contain my food. Please note, placing a paw print in the middle of my plate and food does not stake a claim for it becoming your food and dish, nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing in the slightest.
The stairway was not designed by Nascar and is not a racetrack. Beating me to the bottom is not the object. Tripping me doesn’t help, because I fall faster than you can run.
I cannot buy anything bigger than a king size bed. I am very sorry about this. Do not think I will continue to sleep on the couch to ensure your comfort. Look at videos of dogs sleeping, they can actually curl up in a ball. It is not necessary to sleep perpendicular to each other stretched out to the fullest extent possible. I also know that sticking tails straight out and having tongues hanging out the other end to maximize space used is nothing but doggy sarcasm.
My compact discs are not miniature Frisbees.
For the last time, there is not a secret exit from the bathroom. If by some miracle I beat you there and manage to get the door shut, it is not necessary to claw, whine, try to turn the knob, or get your paw under the edge and try to pull the door open. I must exit through the same door I entered. In addition, I have been using bathrooms for years, canine attendance is not mandatory.
The proper order is kiss me, then go smell the other dogs butt. I cannot stress this enough. It would be such a simple change for you.
To which I (“comment from Janet Tate Crum”) would add: all 3 of you will not fit through the dog door simultaneously. Attempting that maneuver does not result in you fending off the ferocious raccoon/squirrel/renegade leaf any faster. It just results in blood and yelping.

Question of the day….
How is it possible that I taught the same amount of material we are teaching today in a 1260 hour program in 945 hours. In addition my students wrote out their notes line by line on paper, and did not have everything handed to them on an iPad. And…. I was able to have them do all the labs, plus we did some really neat additional projects (any of my prior students remember your home-made keg coolers?).
This question comes up because several of my instructors are complaining they do not have time to cover the material and do all the labs.

So:
1) We have government employees going to food banks to feed their families.
2) Tampa International Airport has opened a food bank for the federal workers that are working without pay.
3) The Canadian Air Traffic controllers are sending Pizza’s to their US counterparts to attempt to help them out as they are working without pay.
4) The FDA is sending its inspectors back to work, without pay to safeguard the food supplies.Who would have thought.
I promise you this would be solved fast if the Air Traffic controllers would get all the planes on the ground and close US air space and the TSA would close all checkpoints and not allow people through security.
Someone would have to make a choice…… does the military build a wall…. or does the military re-open air travel? Not enough military trained to do both at the same time.

Peanut has this down to a science. She will go out, fake squat, and come back in for her treat. Then she is right back outside again and goes and really does her business and then comes back in for another treat.

When people say the current administration is doing a good job because unemployment rates are down I wonder if they really have any understanding of how unemployment rates are calculated? Who collects these numbers?
1) Unemployment rates are calculated based on the number of NEW unemployment claims
2) Unemployment rates are calculated by the number of people collecting and filing unemployment reports.Now, these numbers are suspect because they do not always include the long-term unemployed. What do I mean by that? Well, most states unemployment ends after 26 weeks, some go out to 12 months. Now, let’s say that you have used your 26 weeks unemployment and stop filing because what’s the point? You aren’t going to get anymore benefits.
Because you stop filing the government no longer counts you among the unemployed.
In some states the unemployment compensation is so low that if you make ANY money over $20.00 in the week you will not collect anything. Again, people stop filing. Why bother? So, the unemployment reports now no longer count you among the count of “unemployed.”
So, is our administration actually making a difference on the unemployed, or are they riding the waves of people falling off of the unemployment roles?
Sometimes it’s good to look behind the numbers and see what makes them.
