Our Circus Dog


Toasty is in training to be a circus dog. As a matter of fact he has graduated beginner doggie training. We even have the picture to prove it. Here's Toasty running around a hoop .

Mormon Blogger/Mormon Messages

Click on the title to check out a neat website. The website contains all sorts of video's that answer all sorts of questions. Why with "Home Box Office" treading where angels fear to tread, perhaps presenting "Why Mormons Build Temples" is an indirect way to respond to to an explicit breach of implicit promise.

Blood and Communism

I'm in the habit of donating blood. I have donated over 5 gallons in my life. When you go to the refrigerator to get a gallon of milk, remember that.

Today's experience was a little different. United Bloods Services asked me to donate platelets. Platelets can be donated every other week if you want. Well, I agreed since I don't do much on Saturday mornings. The phlebotomist was a very nice lady and had an interesting accent which I couldn't peg. I asked her where she was from and she said Cuba and then unsolicited, she said "Castro has ruined our country. Communism is a very bad thing. Kids today don't understand how bad communism is. It is scary. But where am going to move? Mars? Well I'm safe here, for now."

She immigrated to the US in 1993 and is very proud that she and her husband working together can make their mortgage payment of $800. Now that is humbling.
