Claire,
I love the name you gave the puppy, that is sooooo cute, Fiddler on the roof. I can't believe anyone would be so mean as to set a firework off in an animals face. That is awful! I'm sorry you got hurt walking the dog but I'm thankful you were able to catch him. You would have felt terrible telling the owner that you lost him. I love to hear about the differences in our cultural traditions. I've never been overseas but would love to go someday.

Love the poem! You've inspired me to write one also.

No one should be mean
to our gracious Queen
For if they are
you can be sure
The boomer women will hunt them down
push their noses into the ground
and stomp on them
and blow bangers in their faces and
kick them and really hurt them bad!!!!!!
