  • This is a beautiful story and a great testimony.
    Enjoy.
    Click here: The Harmonica Man Sorry, seems you will have to cut and paste it. Darn it, I am just not computer smart.

  • Sharron, isn't that the greatest story? They said this fellow was in northwest Washington. Have you ever come across him? Maybe that sounds like a dumb question. When we were in Costa Rica and the folks there found out we were from Canada, they said they had a friend in Canada, and did we know them. :)

    Thanks for sharing that, Sharron.

  • Fran, thank you for checking out the site.
    I have not met him, but he is an angel on this earth.

    He is only 20 miles from here, but its across the Hood Canal, and in a different county.
    BUT I would be proud to know him.
    Hugs.

  • that man certainly is a bright spot on earth.

  • Thanks again for checking him out.
    I wish I had posted it properly.
    Yes, he is making kids enjoy music..what a gift.

  • @Kipawa:

    …the folks there found out we were from Canada, they said they had a friend in Canada, and did we know them...

    LOLOL!!! :D

    Yeah, you know every one of the 30 Million residents in a land mass that's 3,855,171 square miles. Hehehe

    Gotta love it.

  • AJs Human - the people were so nice in Costa Rica that I felt I was breaking their hearts telling them I did not know their 'friends'. In CR, you are considered a friend after only one meeting. A beautiful country with beautiful people and a fabulous hot and dry climate on the west coast that ANY basenji would just love.

  • Ms. Fran: I didn't mean to sound harsh or deride Costa Ricans…I was just giggling about the image of you having a friendly little block party with 30 million of your closest friends...

  • AJ - don't worry at all. I totally read that the right way/how you meant it. :) The friendliness of Costa Ricans is incredible. If I asked them if they knew a Costa Rican I know I would not be surprised if they did know them! They are such a social group of people - sitting on the curb near the church and just watching folks and waving to them. At the time I was working full time in a very stressful job, and I just envied their simplicity.

    This story has some elements of urban myth in it - see http://www.snopes.com/critters/crusader/stuffedtoys.asp As they point out its not only stuffed toys that are treated with anti fungals/bacterials - fillings of duvets/doonas/quilts/comforters/ pillows/cushions/pet beds are all potentially treated with the same chemicals. Also there is no details that if you wash toy/quilt whether the chemical is removed/reduced. I would also be very surprised if there were any standards imposed on what is deemed appropriate or safe for pet toys - there seems to be little or no regulation as to what can be fed/added to pet food around the world. That is not to say that there are very good manufacturers of pet food/toys who take the research upon themselves. However if I went along to my local craft store and bought a commercially available filling, how would I know whether it had been treated or not?

    Holy smokes - I'll pick the second one. I was never a big Whitney fan, and in recent times it has been sad watching her trying to sing her big hits. This fellow just aces this song.

    That guy is my hero! We met a man a few years ago with a 3-legged lab, he had dived in and fought a gator to save his dog. The dog lost a front leg (Gators have really nasty mouths) but was happy and healthy…and alive! Anne in Tampa

    @Quercus: :rolleyes: Ugh…maybe instead of marrying a dog, he should enlist people to stone and club him while he is 'mating'. Unfortunately I can't get the image of the original dogs being murdered while breeding..... Personally, I don't think he should be allowed to breed, but your suggestion is the next best thing.;)
