At some point yesterday, there was a playful APB put out on my balls. Let me assure you, they will not be on display on this blog. Frankly, they are not fans of sunlight. Additionally, there’s always the risk of moisture out in the open and we all know what that would mean. So rather [...]

Dr. Dolittle, I am not. But we grew up with all sorts of pets: a rabbit, a turtle, fish my brother’s first grade teacher had to give to someone when the summer came, and, of course, a dog. We even once “had” ducks. They were “ours” because one day a motherducker decided our front yard [...]
