Beaming

I love you.

Reach Out

And touch someone you love.

Cat got my tongue

I know something I can't tell.

Read My Mind

Go ahead.
You know you can.

Inside

Drop it sister.

I don't wear the lead inside.

Dog Psalm #78

Sometimes when you get to the bridge
you're not sure if you want to cross it.
Listen to the quiet voice deep inside,
it will tell you what to do.

Hey Roy

So there was this big black lab down at the job site.

All day my people played with him. 

"Here Roy. Down Roy. No Roy. Catch Roy. Good Boy Roy!"

Then his person called him to get into the truck - 

"Come Smokey!"

Smokey?

Apparently his person had said "Here Boy" 

and my people thought he said "Hey Roy."

Go figure.

But Roy is a good dog name.

Elephant in the living room

Hey. What the...

Does anyone else see this?

Well, if it smells like an elephant it must be an elephant.
I thought it would be larger. Go figure.

Excuse me, are we going to talk about it 

or just keep it?

My doggy UMWELT

What it is like...

It is close to the ground...

It is lickable...

It either fits in the mouth or is too big for the mouth...

It is full of details...

It is in the moment...

It is fleeting and fast...

It is written all over their faces...

It reads like a poem but the text above is an excerpt

from the table of contents of

INSIDE OF A DOG What Dogs See, Smell, and Know.

Dog ear a page or two for your person

so they may better understand and learn from you.

Smile Detection

Something bad happened to the camera. Now the LED screen shows a spider web of cracks and big jagged black spot.  So it seemed time to shop for a new camera.  And that is when we discovered a new technology called "face detection" that senses when the smile is most natural.

More and more life is like a Ray Bradbury story.

In the above photo I'm fake smiling.

And in the photo below I'm smirking.

Would a new camera have "allowed" it?

Maybe we can just power on with the broken LED?
