Rerun waits



Rerun's been moping around the house waiting for mum to come home. Poor thing seems so out of sorts. Apparently when my dad took him for a walk this morning he plopped down halfway at a bus stop and refused to move, and had to be carried for a while. (Yes, he really is the baby of the family.)

Oh wow that is one truly adorable little dog! Pets are more intelligent than most people give them credit for. My cat knows how everyone in the house feels, especially when they're sad, or when something significant is happening: eg the parents' big divorce.

on a separate note, hope your mom is doing well. :)

Rerun's so cute. I take care of a Cairn terrier too... they do have such adorable expressions, absolutely capable of melting hearts.

Am drawn to your blog because of Rerun...

All the best to you, your mom and the rest of your family. Good luck!

Verbal agreement

From a Grauniad Guardian article on James Dyson , inventor of the dual-cyclone vacuum cleaner: He still has one major ambition. To become a verb, in the same way that Hoover - or, as he puts it, "the alternative" - has done. I suggest to him that people are already using his product but still saying they are "hoovering". He smiles. "I don't think they'll be doing that for long," he says. That struck me as unusual - it's very rare for a firm's leader to say that he wants his product to become a verb. Lots of other companies like TiVo and Google have tried desperately to avoid their name becoming a verb, for fear of the name becoming so generic that the trademark gets diluted. But then, the Languagehat archives seem to show (see comment near the bottom) that Dyson's big on turning his name into a verb. *** Sadly, due to its distinct lack of vowels, the chances of "sng" becoming a verb seem close to zero, regardless of whate

Dog blogs, plus the I look like my dog "contest"

I've just discovered Puptastic , another dog blog, and learnt the following disturbing facts: 1. The dog most likely to eat you when you're dead is the Dachshund. Beware the hot dog! 2. Some people look a lot like their dogs . A lot. But only if they own pedigrees . Actually, I've heard about this study for a long time - it made its rounds on the Net a while back. It's a selection thing. Anyway, the post had a link to pictures of what they claimed was a "I Look Like My Dog" contest (urban legend alert - I think it's more likely to be just a series of regular Cesar ads), including this one: Update: some quick Googling shows that the idea that this is a dog-resemblance contest is almost certainly not true. Presumably the "winners of the 'I Look Like My Dog' contest line was meant to be facetious, but people have taken it seriously. In reality, these were ads done by ALMAP/BBDO Sao Paulo that won some Gold awards at the 2000 Cannes Lions ( thi
