video iPod Books on tape, music, movies, TED lecture videos, Mythbusters, Peggle...

a book on the history of China a lot to learn, better take advantage and get crackin'. I hate my American "history education". How are you going to be a citizen of the world if you are ignorant of world history?

Rottweiler I had a 110 pound rescued Rottweiler that would love to sleep on my legs (very painful for my legs). Everyday with "Zeus" (the name given by his previous neglectful owner) felt like getting beat up after school, because the dog was so strong and physical, even though he loved me through and through. Some games we would play: (1) "play" biting my hands and arms and feet until throbbing with pain and bruised (2) jumping six feet in the air and bringing me down from a full run (I am college linebacker sized) and "play" biting my hands and arms and feet as I lie dazed on the ground. Remember, these were the games he played with people he *liked*. I am a big guy, so I could wrap my hand around his muzzle, to scold him when he got too out of control. I can't imagine him allowing anyone else to do that. If I was to be physically abused in prison, I would prefer it was by my own loyal Rottweiler.

Rob my house, my Rottweiler will just shed fur on you...

Good thing my dog sleeps on the couch all day, would not want the couch to drift off of the ground, and float away...

My half-Rottweiler/half-Black Lab puppy girl, Susie, is pretty durn useless. She is a scared, anxious little thing, the rustling of a trash bag can send her scurrying. Susie is a sucker for anybody who tells her she is a good girl and gives her a pet on the head and a tasty treat, so professional burglars could get past her will no difficulty.

And, since Susie is such a fraidy-cat, she gets excited about anything she can bully, like a tiny baby in a stroller, or a very tiny dog, or an old weak person. Susie will bark and snap her little teeth, and make a total disgrace of herself. She is completely harmless, but it is still painfully embarrassing for me, the guy who is walking her through the neighborhood. My neighbors think I harbor a vicious dog -- they don't know that I just have a noisy fuzzy cream-puff on a leash.

A whole lot of uselessness, in a black fuzzy coat. That is my Susie dog!
