Is this heaven? No, it's Icicle.

Truly, lab heaven on a crisp Autumn morning.

New Toys? What's That?

Annie's two favorite toys are chewed up, raggedy old soccer balls.

Happiest when I play soccer with the balls.

Does it get any better?

We Shall Never Forget

There were many heroes on September 11, 2001.  The dogs who rescued then searched for remains are certainly among those heroes.  The struggled in horrendous conditions and provided valuable service.  And aid to the people who were also involved in the rescue, search, and recovery.

There is, as far as we know, only one of those dogs still alive.

Thank you to all of them who worked hard on those minutes, hours, days, and weeks after 9/11.

Riots

Around 5:00 PM the girls begin to get restless.  This is a mild version of the riot that takes place in my office.  As you can see, the office manager, Sage, remains calm.  She wants me to work as long as possible.
