The ladies of the family informed me that "boogie-men" are a phase that toddlers go through. In this case, Quicksilver's "boogie-men" is a fear of bears.
That fear was put to bed today.
"Zeus is one of God's Guardian angels" we told her. Zeus is our German Shepherd
We called Zeus over and praised his big, sharp teeth. Quicksilver was all ears.
"Bear. Shiny nose?" Quicksilver asked (about 23 times).
"Yes. Zeus will bite him. Bite him lots of times. Chase bear down the driveway" I assured her.
Quicksilver was comical as she would "jab" with her hand and make a biting motion with her hand...fingers and thumbs extended like a dog's teeth. "Bite bear!!!"
"Yes. Many, many times" I repeated.
"Zeus will protect you. He is on Team Xyzabc and he protects us" I reiterated.
I firmly believe that God gave us dogs for that very reason. They are one rank of the phalanx of guardian angels that God arrays around each one of us.
Getting spidered
I am getting a huge number of untraceable hits. It is on the order of 10x my normal traffic and it has been going on for about 10 days.
I must have hit some trip-wires and I am getting spidered.
It is what it is. We live in tumultuous times.
Humans don't destroy dogs. Fortunately dogs are unaware of this fact.
ReplyDeleteCould you explain this comment Dan?
DeleteI suspect his brain wanted to say "Humans don't DESERVE dogs" but his phone's auto-correct had other ideas.
DeleteAh, that makes more sense, and I agree.
DeleteI wish I was as good as my dog thinks of me.
Also, in your intuition vs rational post I trust my Dogs opinion of others more than mine.
I think they can smell psychopaths.
Yes....and I hate autocorrect. And the inability to edit comments.
DeleteWe truly do not not deserve dogs.
ReplyDeleteHmm. I denote that this month's views to date are three times what last month's were. Mine seems to have started on 19 October.
Check backwards in your post timeline and see if there is anything back there.
ReplyDeleteCold dark winter for Europe? is the most controversial post in the timeframe when the hit rate jumped.
DeleteI discussed possible targets in Iran that Israel might hit to apply maximum economic pain with minimum military exposure.
Based on what Israel DID hit, it was being read by the Israeli decision-makers.
