    The two most common things in the Universe

I read this in the WSJ in an article about critical thinking:

The same person who rationally analyzes all her portfolio options also believes she was abducted by aliens. The same person who critically parses newspaper editorials for lapses of logic believes in astrology.

J@h, so sorry to hear about klaus. They are members of our family and when they go, it leaves a tremendous hole in our hearts.

Judith, share a hug with Klaus from me --- or you take the hug and give Klaus a pat. I'll be thinking of you and sending good thoughts out Tejas way.

He was better today...I am hoping we can delay taking him to our vet til the 30th, when our vet gets back in town...he's scampering around Europe right now.

He seemed almost perky this afternoon.

This is vexing...

20415. judithathome - 10/21/2006 3:57:26 AM

Klaus seemed perky, not the vet.

Though he may well seem that way, too, swanning around the south of France.

Thoughtful...please drop me an email...

What is Klaus doing scampering around in Europe?

20418. Jenerator - 10/21/2006 10:14:53 PM

;-)

20419. judithathome - 10/21/2006 11:11:38 PM

Klaus is probably enjoying the south of France very much, having pate and escargot and crusty bread with wine. He's very cosmopolitian.

20420. Jenerator - 10/22/2006 2:00:18 AM

Nice of you to send him off for vacation.

20421. judithathome - 10/22/2006 5:07:05 AM

Since we always leave him in the kennel whe we go on trips, we figured it was time...only fair.

I'm sorry to hear about Klaus, Judith. I had to have Callie the Geriatric Hund put down in January. It was very difficult.

20423. TheWizardOfWhimsy - 10/23/2006 10:53:41 PM

You can always tell when jexster's been around!

Condolences on your loss, Judith.

Hi bubbs!

20424. judithathome - 10/24/2006 12:54:34 AM

Actually, it was decided today by us that Klaus is going to be put down this Thursday...my friend found a vet who is coming to the house and she said he will just go to sleep after she administers sedatives. He has been getting steadily worse over the weekend and I think it's cruel to let him continue to suffer or maybe have a severe incident and have to be rushed to the cold and clinical vet's clinic. This way, he will be at home, with us, and not in pain any longer, and not upset about having to be taken to a place he hates.

This was a hard decision and it's killing us...but it's better this way, for him, and eventually I hope for us. I can't bear to see him in pain.

You are kind and brave and you have given me the sniffles.

Judith

I was thinking about Klaus last night and all of our cyber doggies. We come to know them like we come to know their owners. Chili Cheese dog, Klaus, Callie, and a slew of other pups from other boards. Klaus is a rockstar in the cyberpup world.

I have a new cyber pup, Harlan, pawing at my elbow as I type. He's about 4 months old now and 23 pounds of fuzzy wiggle.

Hey Wiz!

My black and white springer, Hanna, is getting grey around the muzzle, rather like me.

She's still going strong, which I think is down to the border collie in her mix. Still loves to go out and hunt with me, it's her favourite thing in the world, besides food.

Sad to hear Klaus is so ill, whatever becomes him, he had a grand time I'm sure with you and Keoni.

20428. judithathome - 10/24/2006 6:18:12 PM

Thanks for the kind words, folks.

20429. PelleNilsson - 10/24/2006 8:28:38 PM

Sorry about Klaus, Judith. He was almost a Motie in his own right.
