Spring is in the air. Flowers are beginning their journeys... and don't forget, so is love. Spring is such an amazing catalyst for romance. Look around.. see people living and see people loving. See people living to love and loving to live. Happy Spring, friends, happy spring.

Sharing.


































Maybe it's just me but I feel like there's been a lack of great animal pictures on here lately. Also, I wanted to share a couple of my favorite found notes in response to Jim's post; from Found magazine. Don't forget you guys, this is NOT a party building.

More on Millan

I did some research on The Dog Whisperer. Kind of what I was thinking. He doesn't actually know anything about behavioral science in dogs.

so i was at henry's tonight, and out of my peripheral i caught sight of these die hard baseball fans on television, whose love ones had  passed on to glory. and if you're  a die hard baseball fan whose loved one has met an untimely end, and is now residing in a better, more peaceful place, with the lord or jesus, then what better way to celebrate the life of this  beloved then by having them eternally placed  (via ashes or corpse) in an urn or coffin that celebrates the team that you two held dear during his/her wonderful life among the living? the answer: an eternal images line of major league baseball urn or casket. well thats all well and great you say, but what if my deceased was not into baseball, what if he/she was into...say star trek or precious moments? i will tell you what then, and i will say good news, i will also proclaim that you my friend, my friend who is going through such a trying time of darkness and despair, can purchase them a coffin/urn that honors the devotions of this loved one whilst she/he was alive, be it precious moment or star trek.

Bop Bob Perona

The speech Obama gave today on race was really good. Read it here.

Then, if you want to get really mad, go read the headline on CNN.com.

EDIT: Looks like they changed it....before it just read "Obama Says Constitution Stained by Blood of Slavery"

dogs

hey guys....read this about Cesar...this is kinda how i thought they would feel.



"On September 6, 2006, the American Humane Association issued a press release condemning Millan's tactics as "inhumane, outdated, and improper" and called on the National Geographic Channel to cease airing the program immediately. [23]
In October 2006, the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants wrote a letter to the National Geographic Channel regarding concerns "that the program may lead children to engage in unsafe behaviors." The Association called for a change in the program's rating of TV-G."

"Poem in Thanks"
thomas lux

Lord Whoever, thank you for this air
I'm about to in-and exhale, this hutch
in the woods, the wood for fire,
the light - both lamp and the natural stuff
of leaf-back, fern, and wing.
For the piano, the shovel
for ashes, the moth gnawed
blankets, the stone-cold water
stone-cold: thank you.
Thank you, Lord, coming for
to carry me here - where I'll gnash
it out, Lord, where I'll calm
and work, Lord, thank you
for the goddamn birds singing!

this little guy stole my heart... and simultaneously, made me get up and dance. this is a 3:04 minute video.. kinda long as far as youtube vids are concerned, but you should seriously listen to at least all the way to 2:51 - -it's my absolute favorite. :)

we and neti


this beautiful little gem is a neti pot. we love it. at first, it really feels like you are drowning -- drowning. but once you realize you're in control of the situation, it's totally cool. it all started on saturday when i could barely breathe.. and andy was like, hey, what about this thing i saw on oprah. so, we bought this little guy at Kroger's Scotts for 10 freaking dollars. it's brilliant. seriously. brilliant. we love it and don't really even understand how we lived without.

we attached some videos of us irrigating our nasal cavities -- it may seem like we aren't enjoying ourselves, because of our twisted faces and how ours eyes close involuntarily.. but, we do love it.
