The First Dog Governor of California

Covid lockdowns, Zoom classes, extreme and contradictory restrictions and mandatory vaccinations set off a firestorm and Californians demanded change.

But the politicians didn't listen and some ignored their own rules, so the people elected Lenny, a tiny Chihuahua as governor of California.

The Happiest Place On Earth

Yesterday my gardener and I discovered a whole gopher community has formed in my backyard. Little piles of soil are everywhere!

An hour later the situation grew worse when the gophers formed a homeowners association and are now demanding a swimming pool, free beer and TV sets.

And if that wasn't enough, one of the gophers mooned me.

I’m at my wits end! I never kill gophers so I’m asking my gardener to return next week with gopher repellent. 

But there is an alternative! I could leave them at Disneyland, officially called "The Happiest Place On Earth," where greater happiness would await them, and like so many Disney characters before them, they may become a major attraction.

And if they do, they will learn never to moon people.

With Love To All - Dick

Wisdom Older Than The Buddha

Dear Reader: What you are about to read is real.

We live on a busy street located just one block from an elementary school. There are 3-stop signs that stop traffic in front of our home and each school day morning for about an hour, I greet the many people taking their children to school or driving to work. 

Nearly all the adults are stressed, most because they're worried about something they fear will happen or something that has happened that upsets them. They are distracted, not living in the now. Their bodies are here, their heads are not.

My Dog's New Name

Dear Reader, 

As you may recall, I have a dog named Carter. He lives full-time with my next-door neighbor who walks him, feeds him, takes him to the vet and does all the other wonderful things pet companions do. I have no involvement. 

But lately, when my neighbor jogs by with Carter, I think she wants me to walk him, which I have no intention of doing. So to be diplomatic, I’ve changed his name.

Is This A Miracle?

Today in my local market, I tried to buy a special cereal only to find it was on too high a shelf and I wasn’t tall enough to reach it. At first I thought it was the lord telling me not to buy this cereal.
