Searching For A Loving Companion


It Has Been Awhile Since I Shared The Passing Of Mr Bear. I'm Sure Those Who Read My Words Felt My Pain. I Had My Moment Of Grief And Now I Must Move On.
Recently I Have Been Watching The Greatest American Dog Contest Every Wednesday Night On CBS. It's Basically On The Same Format As Big Brother But You Compete As Couples. A Couple Is Evicted At The Conclusion OF Each Show. Those Who Had The Weakest Performance In Competition Are Subject To Be Eliminated. The English Bulldog Whose Name Was Tillman Brought Back Alot Of Memories When I Once Shared My Life With An English Bulldog Named Ugly. Watching Tillman Ride On A Skateboard Was Amusing In Every Sense Of The Word.
I Am Ready To Commit Myself To A Four Legged Companion. I Would Enjoy Having Another English Bulldog. HOWEVER, All My Internet Searches Have Landed Me In The Minimum Price Rage Of 1,400.00. Maybe Rich Folks Don't Bat An Eye When It Comes To Price. This May Be True But It's Really Too Rich For My Blood. In My Opinion If The Common Folks Were To Agree On A Dog's Worth The Starting Prices Will Lower. In The Meantime I Will Continue My Search For A Four Legged Buddy.
I Try To Be A Patient Person With This Being No Exception.

Bird Man From Danville?


I Have Always Had The Desire To Be A Bird For The Day. Err I Mean Shortly After Breakfast, If You Know What I Mean. I Know The Early Bird Get's The Worm And That's Why I'd As Soon Skip The Worm Thing.
No ,For Real! On Many Occasions I Would Watch Birds Fly Around The Skies With All Their Manuevering Around Obstacles Never Missing A Beat. The Flight Of A Bird Is So Free-Like, Giving Me A Peaceful Feeling Of Freedom. Not A Care In The World As A Bird Darts In And Out Of Natural Or Otherwise Maze Or Near-Like Illusions.
Yes If I Could Be A Bird For The Day I Would Choose To Be A Robin. I Would Enjoy Migrating Into A Tropical Region Annually. I Would Be The Last One To Arrive And The First One To Leave. I Don't Like Snow So That Would Mean I Would Come Home To Illinois About Mid April. Just About Time For Mushroom Season. Mushroom Season You Ask? Yes I Believe All Things Are Possible. Do You Think For A Moment That Only Humans Hunt Mushrooms In The Woods? I'm Not Saying Birds Eat Them But It Could Be Possible. I Do Honestly Believe That Deer Eat Mushrooms. What Bothers Me Most About That Is The Deer Will Remember How Good That Mushroom Tasted. Before You Know It All The Deer Will Be Eating The Mushrooms Leaving None For Us Humans. Ok I will Hold Off On That Discussion For Another Time.
Back On The Topic At Hand. Yes I Would Enjoy Being A Bird For The Day. If You Haven't Before I Hope You Do Someday Take Out A Moment Of Your Day And Watch The Birds. What A Peaceful Feeling It Is..........
