Trucks that play by themselves are no fun.

Oh, man, I loved my old Tonka truck. Those things really were nearly indestructible!

Loyal Dog Won't Leave Injured Friend Behind

Quote:

You don't have to speak Japanese to understand the sympathetic tones of the two men observing these dogs who are also disaster victims -- and one loyal dog refusing to leave his hurt friend's side. There is so much we don't understand about the emotional lives of animals. But we know they can suffer tremendously, and we know they care for each other.
We wish all the people and animals of Japan heartfelt concern during this incomprehensibly difficult time. We know that the people of Japan will respond like these two friends, never abandoning each other in this time of need. Ganbatte kudasai! ("Don't give up!") -- Global Animal

[ UPDATE: According to a facebook entry, a resident of Japan, Kenn Sakurai, is reporting that both dogs were found alive in Mito, Ibaraki. And thanks to the efforts of Japan Earthquake Animal Rescue and Support, the two dogs are currently in the care of a local shelter.]

[ UPDATE: March 16, 2011 --CNN is reporting that both dogs received medical attention. The injured dog is currently at a veteranarian getting care and the loyal dog friend is at a shelter. In summary of the mens' conversation in Japanese: at first the two thought the injured dog was dead. They immediately called a vet for assistance for both dogs. The men say they wish they had brought food to give the dogs. We will continue to follow any updates on this story and the status of the injured dog who is reportedly still weak. - Global Animal]

Unfortunately a lot of kids don't have your courage... They are scared!

I told him to stop, but he came at me anyway, so I grabbed his arm and threw him over my hip. He looked up at me from the ground in shock, but soon regained his composure, jumped up, and came at me again. As he did, I grabbed his arm and made an even more impressive throw over my shoulder. He got up and came at me a third time, and once again, I grabbed his arm and threw him over my hip. About that time, someone hollered out that the coach was coming. I was glad. By that point I had already demonstrated all the tricks I knew, and one of them twice!

I have got one of those trucks in my back yard for my grand kids, but no elephants...

No elephant?

Must be used. That or your elephant snuck off in the intervening years.

That's why I love dogs.

Better than a wife.

Well, except for some things.

Never did see a dog do the dishes.

Ben will do all my dishes, if I let him... I prefer to wash them in the sink, though...

Nothing better for cleaning up a dropped egg on the kitchen floor than a good dog!
