Finally, a chance to get online! Well... Sock is pregnant (we're pretty sure) so that means pups in 12 weeks. I really enjoyed her last litter so am looking forward to it.
Read some unusual books recently. Has anyone else read the Chopper series? They would make a good tv series, although given the horrific violence, I am rethinking that in the latter part of this sentance. Let's just say, the books are worth a read, particularly the first 4.
God I'm tired. I got no sleep at all last night, and it made me wake up feeling sick. On the bright side, I will sleep well tonight. I'd better. Me not fuction sleep well without, to amend Homer somewhat.

This is one of my favourite crime stories of 2005
Police: Robber was run down five times, then shot self
Things were looking good for one Milwaukee robbery suspect. He had just successfully held up his victim, who had given him some cash — but his escape plan hit a snag.
Instead of whisking the man away from the crime scene, his getaway car mowed him down.
According to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, the 29-year-old man, who has not been identified, allegedly threatened another man at gunpoint in a parking lot at about 2:45 a.m. on Oct. 23 and demanded money. As the victim complied, a truck that police believe was the suspect's getaway vehicle drove up in reverse and accidentally hit the man and his victim.
Things were about to get worse.
The driver panicked and fled in the car, leaving the suspect to limp away with the cash. Then a woman, who police say was a friend of the victim's and witnessed the holdup, drove up in her car and rammed into the suspect.
The woman allegedly backed up and hit the man two more times, the report said. When the woman reversed her car and prepared for a fourth go at the robber, the man reached into his pocket to grab his gun and in the process accidentally shot himself in the leg. The woman then bumped the injured man a fourth time.
Milwaukee police arrested the alleged robber and took the man and his victim to the hospital. According to the report, the victim was listed in satisfactory condition, while the alleged robber was said to be in critical condition.
Police are looking for the woman driver.
So who is Sock pregnant too? You are in Wgtn still I supposes - so how did you choose a dog? How are you??
Posted by: toni at January 18, 2006 09:28 AMHeya mate! Um well Sock got crated up and flown on down to Chch, so she is pregnant to Charlie Brown, the same stud we used last time. It works out economically to do that *as long as* there is nothing terminal wrong with the litter or if the litter does not take. If we don't have saleable pups we're out the airfares.
I'm ok, freezing my ass off in Wgtn and haven't done any decent painting or anything in months. It's really annoying but that's the way it seems to go sometimes.
How are you mate? I should pop over and catchy-up on your blog... god, internet! hooray!
