From Benji the Hunted, a film that Siskel and Ebert fought over. It’s sad what happens to that obvious wolf dummy in the end…

I discovered the meaning to life this evening
Posted in deep thought, music on October 31, 2010 | 3 Comments »
I’ve heard this song before, but I never actually listened to it as I did this evening. Source. The meaning is in the last part of the song: Into a dancer you have grown From a seed somebody else has thrown Go on ahead and throw some seeds of your own And somewhere between the [...]

Posted in dog breeding, tagged saluki, the dog fancy, The Saluki on October 30, 2010 | 23 Comments »

Not a bad music video for this song: Source. I get this sentiment at times. My Myers-Briggs Personality Type is INTJ. However, I have taken it a few times from different sites and have received an INTP. I would call myself an INTJ– but with that caveat in mind. My I tends to be very [...]

Gerald of Wales included this legend in his Topographia Hibernica : In Ireland in 1182, a priest travelling from Ulster into Meath, and having to pass the night in a wood, was sitting by a fire which he had made, when a wolf accosted him in human speech. He was, he said, a man of [...]
