Sorry Porsche, but there’s another even better Candidate for President than any the Republicans can muster up! My German Shepherd, Ele (for Elegant) is a great listener with a decisive action-oriented approach to any crisis–barking, lunging, growling. In our long–one way conversations–she has indicated by her soulful looks and sighs that she can do the same for the out-of-work and disenfranchised citizens of America. Ele for President in 2012!

Porshy’s problem is that she won’t lie, except to take a nap.

It’s always thrilling to hear about somebody living their dream, making it reality. In your case it took real talent to write such a great book , but also the spunk to actually get it published. Kudos! Be our inspiration!

Hello, Shelley! Congrats on your houseboat book! I’m living in DC and trying to stay dry! Are you ready for 2011? I have a hard time keeping my blog up to date too.

Comment on Oil Spills and Mine Disasters? by Iris

I agree – we need some alternative for power generation. However, there is that creepy feeling that the next suggestion will be more nuclear plants. Hopefully not.
On a lighter note – I heard that Rush Limbaugh said that the ocean will take care of itself. Something to the effect that oil is as natural as water. With people like him educating a very large fan base – I am struggling to stay hopeful for a planet-friendly power production solution.
