Thank God Its Friday


Well the painter have returned, and its generally pretty quiet here today so I will spend the good part of today doing laundry and vacuming. But then I have to wonder is this the still before the storm? After all Dan will meet Sully my Newfie this evening that should be quite the event as our son Dan thinks we have way to many dogs as is. I am thinking about renaming Sully...Angus, or Datanyo (the fourth musketeer)

Politics and Fido

...a Latin name meaning "I am faithful." As such it is a terrific name for the average protective and loyal family dog. However, it gets its popularity from a celebrity tie-in. Apparently, Abraham Lincoln, a largely self-educated but very erudite man, named his dog Fido. Americans followed suit in droves, putting the dog name Fido firmly in the top 20 names. Lincoln’s choice of Fido for his dog’s name was perfectly logical. Fido is the Latin for faithful, which when dealing with any pet dog is entirely appropriate
