... Ouch. I am requesting cute dog stories to cheer me up. --Catherine & Zoe the sadly impoverished but soon-to-be warm again cockerchow Would you like to hear about how Spenser - after we converted to forced hot air and a heat pump - took to barking down one of the registers? He still does it once in a while. Near as we can tell, it is always *just* before the heat turns on. We figure he's cold and he thinks that's what starts the warm air? What was the children's book about the dog who barked to make the sun come up? I've looked for it a couple of times but no one at Barnes and Noble (or even an elementary librarian) seems to remember it. It might have been one of the Harry books? ~~Judy (who loves, loves, loves her heat pump. Especially every month, year round, when the electric bill comes. And every fall when I'm *not* doing firewood.) |

LOL................Judy, that was a good chuckle.
I used to have a cat who weighed in at 22 lbs and in my living room there was only 1 forced hot air vent. Guess who hogged the vent and you'd have to chase him off it or else you'd freeze. He was in his glory when I moved to an apartment with hot water radiators. I swear he never moved off them in the winter except to eat and use his litter box. Celeste "Judy" wrote in message ...

It will be nice to have a new, reliable, more efficient heat pump, that's for sure. I should save on electric bills too. Thanks for your note! --Catherine & Zoe the cockerchow |

I wish I could have seen that kodak moment. Did anyone get any photos of this incident? It seems like a waste if no one did manage too. Even though the occurance at the time was not suppose to happen. It's those things in life that make one smile. Gwen |

like a waste if no one did manage too. No, it is amazing how few pictures I have of field work, considering how much time I have spent there. Of course if you factor in the grit in the wind and the mud on the cold wet fingers and dirty dogs shaking and stinky birds pooping and plowing thru swamp and bouncing over rutted roads perched on the back rack of a four-wheeler driven by Buba-the-lab-trainer, which although hell on the butt is better than standing for hours up to your knees in stagnant water holding a rotting dead duck swarming with flies as the sun cooks your neck and ants crawl up your crotch... I'm sorry, what was the question again? ;- Here's a good picture of Shammie holding a duck, though: http://mypeoplepc.com/members/chinch...2OK9s/id8.html Someday, I'll get around to putting some more pictures up...
