I day-dreamed for a dog's life today...

Nice to see my daughter for the weekend- maybe for thirty minutes other than the drive back to Oxy.  Who did she REALLY come home to see ?

Watched "The Blind Side" last night.   I liked it, even though it was a feel good movie- it is a true story.  Sandra Bullock was very good (looks great as a blond). I liked her in that kind of role.  Was it a "Best Actress" performance ?  I couldn't say, since the Academy Awards are political awards.  So if the politics were right....

 

One day, a blind man and his dog are walking down a street, they come to a busy intersection, and the dog, ignoring the high volume of traffic zooming by on the street, leads the blind man out into the thick of traffic. This is followed by the screech of tires and horns blaring as panicked drivers try desperately not to run the pair down.

The blind man and his dog finally reach the safety of the sidewalk on the other side of the street, and the blind man pulls a cookie out of his coat pocket, and offers it to the dog.

A passerby, having observed the near fatal incident, can't control his amazement and says to the blind man, "Why on earth are you rewarding your dog with a cookie? He nearly got you killed!"

The blind man turns partially in his direction and replies, "To find out where his head is, so I can kick his ass."
 

 
Mildred was a 93-year-old woman who was particularly despondent
over the recent death of her husband, Earl.

She decided that she would just kill herself and join him in death.

Thinking that it would be best to get it over with quickly, she
took out Earl's old Army pistol and made the decision to shoot
herself in the heart, since it was so badly broken in the first place.

Not wanting to miss the vital organ and become a vegetable and burden someone, she called her doctor's office to inquire
as to just exactly where the heart would be on a woman.

The doctor said, "Your heart would be just below your left breast."

Later that night,

Mildred was admitted to the hospital

with a gunshot wound to her knee....

A lady found out her dog could hardly hear, so she took it to the veterinarian.
He found that the problem was hair in its ears, so he cleaned both ears, and the dog could hear fine. The vet then proceeded to tell the lady that if she wanted to keep this from reoccurring, she should go to the store and get some "Nair" hair remover, and rub it in its ears once a month.
The lady goes to the drugstore and gets some "Nair."
At the register, the druggist tells her: "If you're going to use this under your arms, don't use deodorant for a few days."
The lady says, "I'm not using it under my arms."
The druggist says, "If you're using it on your legs, don't shave for couple of days."
The lady says, "I'm not using it on my legs either; if you must know, I'm using it on my Schnauzer."
The druggist says, "Stay off your bicycle for a week".
