I called a friend who is a popular magazine publisher. He said when they do a movie list the Jerk will be on it. De nada.

Shoot me a link with the friend invite.

Question for dog/pet owners

Anyone have any experience with:

-Cushings disease in a pet?;

-the use of a dog wheelchair device for a dog who has gone lame in the back legs?; and/or

-longer term use of rimadyl by a dog?

I'm so sorry to hear that your dog is having problems with his / her joints. I don't have experience with that particular problem, but the Displaced Dog was on SAMe for a few years to help improve his liver function. SAMe is also used a lot for mild depression and for osteoarthritis in humans. My vet said that after a year on the supplement, liver function was improved dramatically, though I don't know if the depression and osteoarthritis improvement would also be there. The Displaced Dog did have trouble getting up in his last few months, but I think that was more due to his exhaustion from congestive heart failure than problems with his joints. He never had problems with depression. They make dog versions of SAMe, but my vet said that they're essentially a more expensive version of the kind sold at Whole Foods or Walgreens for people, so I just picked it up at one of those two places and followed the dosing instructions on one of the pet SAMe websites.

Anyhow, I think that rimadyl has some adverse liver and kidney effects, so you might want to ask your vet if a supplement of SAMe in addition to rimadyl would be a good idea. Rimadyl was especially made for dogs, so I imagine there's a lot of data on its long-term effectiveness.

Good luck! I did everything I could last year on making sure that the Displaced Dog was as comfortable as possible in his twilight, and I'd do it again in a heartbeat. He gave me nearly 16 years, and it was the least I could do to make sure that I was as good to him as he was to me. He died in August, and I still miss him a lot.

BTW, I got a note last Monday from the Puppy's breeder that a surprise litter was born on December 27th. We'd thought that it wouldn't be until late spring that we'd get a new puppy, but it looks like we'll be picking up our baby girl on Valentine's day. She's 8 days old today, and the breeder sent me pictures of four itty bitty balls of fluff this afternoon. Mine, I think, was the tiniest of the balls. The Puppy isn't going to like losing her only dog status at first, but I think she misses having someone else to boss around. The cat just doesn't work for her.

cop with no heart?

http://www.dlisted.com/node/29983
  • So, Charles Barkley was busted for DUI in Arizona early this morning. According to the police report, when the cop pulled him over for running a stop sign, Charles said he was just in a rush to get his dick sucked! If I was the officer, I'd let the bitch go on his way. I'm all about hos sucking dick and getting their dicked sucked.

    TMZ says the officer wrote in his report, "He told me that he ran the stop sign because he was in a hurry to pick up the girl I saw get in the passenger seat. He asked me to admit that she was 'hot.' He asked me, 'You want the truth?' When I told him I did he said, 'I was gonna drive around the corner and get a blow job. He then explained that she had given him a 'blow job' one week earlier and said it was the best one he had ever had in his life."

Years ago, I was driving my dad's car, and got busted. I told the cop "please let me just take his car home then you can run me in." I was just a few blocks from home. He drove it home with me.

See, I just think for the joy CB has brought Phoenix people the guy could have driven Charles over, let him get the ole pipes cleaned, then brought him in.

I used Rimadyl for pain management when my Pixie-dog got bone cancer. It didn't seem to help much.

That said, i think that glucosamine made a huge difference in her mobility pre-cancer.

Rip Torn (I know, obscure celebrity) got a DUI last week here in my little hamlet. The cop who arrested him (who is a relation of a friend of mine) was just going to follow him home, but he was so drunk and obnoxious, and swearing at the cop in the local eatery/bar & grill, that the cop gave him a DUI as soon as he got in the car. It was in the police blotter, along with the list of people who were "driving too fast for conditions" &c.

He had to appear in Superior Court today (per the aforementioned Police Blotter).

The two most interesting tidbits I have left of this story. UNTIL NOW!!

1. He is 77 years old
2. His real name is Elmore. WTF?

Ha, I just learned that Girls Aloud singer is married to (Chelsea player) Ashley Cole, and . . . he cheated on her! I wonder if the Girls Aloud girls like to read Spice Girls biographies so they can find out what is going to happen to them next.

Couldn't you have put Holy Grail in its appropriate spot and have your assistant re-number the remaining movies in the post for you? For me, this list is tainted.

Wink I am sulking

because for the first time in many years, I didn't go somewhere warm for the xmas break. So to avoid the crushing disappointment that will occur were next xmas break to be similarly bereft, I am in the process of planning and booking the BITCHIN'EST beach break in the history of the world. Or at least in the history of my world.

I think I've got the hotspot picked out, but any suggestions for bitchin' beach locales would be considered and much appreciated. However, as I really don't like traveling all that much, please remember that I'm not going to Fiji (or whatever). That's just too damned far.

From the looks of it, the Spice Girls were a beta release. I suspect Beckham will be interested in upgrading to the newer version.
