Some say that having a certain breed of dog says something about you.  I know a few of the dog breeds we have among us in blogger world, and this list I have encompasses 50 breeds (unfortunately no mutts on the list).  So let me post the four I know about and then I thought it would be fun, and a breath of fresh air from the hot political fire out there, if you want to know what the breed says about you.  So here are the four I know about....

1.  Golden retrievers (me and chatter 9ep).  Golden retriever owners are generally laid back people who love the outdoors.  They enjoy spending time with their friends and family and many have jobs where they help people.  Most also devote some of their free time to volunteering and frequently donate to various charities.  Some can be a little too trusting.  Favorite TV Show:  None.  They would rather be socializing. 

Okay, some of that is true.  I love the outdoors when the temperatures are modest to cool.  I still haven't adapted to the Texas heat 26 years later. 

2.  German shepherd:  Owners are often serious people that tend to be a little shy around strangers.  People that don't know them may consider them to be aloof.  But once you get to know them, they have hearts of gold and will do anything for their friends.  They can be fiercely loyal and enjoy helping people.  They always want to do what is right, morally and ethically.  Favorite TV show:  NYPD Blue.

3.  Dachshunds:  Dachshund owners love people and good parties.  They can be somewhat stubborn.  When they want something, they don't give up until they get it.  These people love gardening, especially digging up things.  Favorite TV Show:  Ground Froce.

4.  Siberian Husky:  Husky owners are busy people struggling to keep their family, work, and home lives all together.  They are kind hearted people that will do anything to help someone in need.  They love sports, especially cold weather sports.  They tend to not like the dentist or doctor too much and avoid going unless absolutely necessary.  When they are sick, they like to have others around to take care of them.  Favorite TV show:  Northern Exposure.

So what other breeds do we have out here in blogger/chatter world?

I've been in MUCH need of a makeover for the longest time. I want to get the latest fashion in clothes, latest haircut, latest facial hair for men, the works (all to my liking of course.) If anyone knows of a contest where people can enter to get a movie star come and give them a makeover then let me know.

KSBJ a few years ago did a contest for a back to school type deal where a famous singer came and took the winner to a mall and helped them shop with a $5,000 shopping spree. Now THAT"S the kind of contest I'm talking about winning ya know?

I was out on assignment in the Texas Medical Center last week... when the photographer I was riding with, Eckhart, stomps on the brakes... and claims, "Why are there bras all over that yard, and I'm not covering that story?" 

We had to "pop a u-turn, LEGALLY of course,  :)   and go check it out!  He wasn't joking... see for yourself! 

You can't see the signs or the BEAR DISPLAY sporting a bra... but it turns out - someone has some very clever friends.  Signs that read - Happy 40th Birthday - we support you were also in the yard. 

How would you feel, if you walked out to a surprise like this?

Laugh? - or cry?

See that face? I just love that face.

That is my "Little Man". I recieved a letter in the mail the other day from his school letting me know he was nominated and accepted to The Art School for Children at UofH Clear Lake. "He shows an exceptional ability in the visual arts."  He starts on Sept 20th and goes for 8 weeks, every Saturday.

I'm sooooo proud!
