Elwood: It’s 106 miles to Chicago, we’ve got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it’s dark and we’re wearing sunglasses.
Jake: Hit it.

Rule of thumb for speeches
A good speech has a beginning, an end and no middle – D Wilson, teacher
This one comes from one of my high school math teachers who gave an address at our commencement. It’s something I always try to keep in mind when I have to give talks and presentations.
Pooh quotes
A couple of my favourites from Winnie the Pooh
For I am a Bear of Very Little Brain, and Long Words Bother Me – Winnie the Pooh
Owl, you and I have brains. The others have fluff. – Rabbit
Poop watching
We have firm poop!
Probably only something you’d hear a dedicated dog owner say out loud.
The last week or so Nala’s been having issues with really soft runny poop, so finally we decided to drop the fish based food altogether. We had her on 1/2 lamb & rice and 1/2 fish/sweet potatoe for the last few weeks, but after the soft poop started up again, we decided to go with straight lamb & rice food. It’s the 2nd day and the poop has started to get more solid. This is a good thing. Nothing worse than trying to pick up soft mushy poop at the dog park. Hopefully it stays this way.
