Out of the Blue

Yesterday's trip to introduce Gunnar to his Uncle Sparky went great, everybody got along famously, and by the end 14-year-old Sparky was horsing around with the youngsters like he was a puppy himself. Gunnar did leave a submarine-sized turd in the bedroom, but it cleaned up pretty readily, and he was forgiven for his toilet training shortcomings. This morning, however, Hudson the wonder dog resumed her recent spate of picking on the other dogs in her trail-running pack, focusing on large males and unfamiliar faces, as she seems quite determined to exert her dominance over the group as alpha dog... if this continues as it is, I may actually have to stop taking her out to run with this crowd, which would be a shame.

Really? I didn't think that much of Timeline. I didn't think it was terrible, it just didn't grab me that much. I did like Jurassic Park quite a bit though - which I read before the movie came out.

Ditto. Liked the first Jurassic Park better than the second, and really haven't been "grabbed" by his later stuff. I think he writes books thinking they will be turned into movies now instead of just writing good books.

Anyone else like the book "The Relic"? MUCH better than the movie, IMHO. The authors (Lincoln and Child) have become some of my favorites to read. Didn't care for the sequel as much, but their other work has been pretty enjoyable.

At what point do the rest of you just start ignoring Halsy's rantings? I do, and don't feel that I am really missing anything. I really have no need for wild conspiracy theories and hatemongering.... It gets old after a while.

We traded in the wife's Ford Escape for a Grand Caravan yesterday. Minivans have come a long way from the 84 Caravan my folks owned when I was young....

It's not easy being a cast-iron bitch. It takes discipline, years of training... A lot of people don't appreciate that.
