being kind to cats might be one of the best attributes of a dog – shows empathy
Interesting take on our assignment. It reminds me of what Woody Allen said. “I don’t want to achieve immortality through my work; I want to achieve immortality through not dying.”
I would miss Rufus Dog, he’s a good pup, one of the best, a dog among humans. I think the first lets blog off that I played in, you said you wrote 3000 words and posted 500. Made me feel good. very sensitive… esp for a dog. cindy @urbanverse
Being a cat person myself, I am consoled by the deceased’s kindness towards felines. And fondness is invoked for anyone that can play a banjo that well. Say hello to Lassie and Ol’ Yell’er!

There you go again… 🙂 I finally had a chance to quote Ronald Reagan in context!
Nary a day goes by when I don’t trip all over the extra words I brush off my desk onto the floor…

I agree with Steve – that part was my favorite! I’ll give you a good belly rub for that one. ; )
