As always, remember that … Continue reading The Worst 66 – See Spot Run

Question of the Week #406

From Gregory Stock’s The Book of Questions: For $50,000, would you put to sleep a healthy pet you love? How much more or less money would it take to change your answer? Now, I know what some of you might be thinking: "50 grand? That's a lot of kibble!" But hold your horses (or cats, or hamsters) … Continue reading Question of the Week #406

Twenty Two – Bloganuary

Welcome to Bloganuary. It’s this thing that WordPress is doing to encourage bloggers to post something every day by providing a regular prompt. I think that “Bloguary” would not only sound better but makes more sense. Maybe they’re saving that for next month. But if they go with Blogebruary I’m dropping out. Anyway, today’s prompt … Continue reading Twenty Two – Bloganuary

Question of the Week #355

Hey there, fellow animal lovers! As usual, our Question of the Week comes from Gregory Stock’s The Book of Questions. Picture this: it's a scorching hot summer afternoon, and you're crossing the parking lot of a bustling shopping center.

Krypto… The Super Dog

Ladies and gentlemen, it's time for you to meet Krypto. And here he is... Adorable, right? To properly tell this story, I need to go back a few years. Then I need to fast-forward to last September. Then I need to jump ahead to roughly three weeks ago. Are you with me so far? Remember … Continue reading Krypto… The Super Dog

A to Z Challenge – Krypto

Welcome to the 2021 A to Z Challenge! My theme this year is DC Comics. And that’s mostly because of my undying affection for the comic book characters and stories that I grew up reading in the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s. So stay tuned all month to (maybe) learn a little something about 26 corners … Continue reading A to Z Challenge – Krypto

Question of the Week #211

Would $50,000 be enough money to induce you to take a loyal, healthy pet to the vet to be put to sleep? Absolutely not. If we're talking about a sick pet for whom arguing the case of prolonging its life means added suffering, yes, put it to sleep. But not a pet that's clearly part … Continue reading Question of the Week #211

The Story of Duchess

A couple weeks ago, I got a text from one of my roommates asking me if I was cool with him getting a dog. Of course, I'm cool with him getting a dog. As long as I'm not the one that has to be responsible for him. Fine by me. I feel like, most days, … Continue reading The Story of Duchess

Perchance to Dream

It should be no secret that I have some pretty bizarre dreams. I can't remember if I've ever mentioned it here, though I'm sure I have at some point, that I'll go maybe months without remembering any of my dreams. Then I'll have a string of nights where my dreams are just freakin' weird. Last … Continue reading Perchance to Dream

Question of the Week #99

You are driving late at night in a safe but deserted neighborhood when a dog suddenly darts in front of your car. Though you slam on the brakes, you hit the animal. Would you stop to see how injured the animal was? If you did so and found that the dog was dead but had … Continue reading Question of the Week #99
