    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.

    @Kipawa:

    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.

    I love all kinds of music- I do like hip-hop, I used to dance with Joe Tremaine Dance Co., so anything you can dance to works for me- but I cannot handle the hard rap stuff! I have a friend who's in a pretty good band out here in Discovery Bay. The band is called Sagacious Past- if you get a chance, check them out on YouTube. They're a metal band.

    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?

    Saw it in Chicago @ (what else) The Chicago Theatre a few years back. It was a great interactive show for all ages.

    I totally forgot to mention Placebo and the Moody Blues, that is two more of my favourite bands and I totally forgot to mention those in my first post > shame on me < hahaha I like Juno Reactor too, ohhh I like so many music, and you are so right that nothing beats live music, well when it is performed well ofcourse, sometimes people better shut up live and let their music get sampled :p I went several times to Bon Jovi, 1x U2, 1x Pink, 1x Rammstein , 1x The Cure and I am finally going to Depeche Mode this year !!! I also wanted to go to Rammstein, PLacebo, The Prodigy and Muse this year, but I was too late for Rammstein and Muse and well to be honoust….cant spend all my " extra " money on concerts at the moment ;) I wish I could hahahahaha :p

    I think in AKC they have to be 7 yrs old. In CKC they have a pee wee class where it's even younger, 4 yrs. And in UKC they can be 2! lol And I think in the youngest ones they can have an "assistant" handler. :) I know I've seen Laurie Soutar going around the ring with her granddaughter in UKC. She has Lakilanni Greyhounds and are regulars at the lure trials. PS, that's for juniors. I think for the breed ring there is no age stipulation as long as they are in control of the dog. Kathy?
