Banjo the dog and I are sitting here, drinking a cup of hot tea (he does pretty well holding a cup for not having opposable thumbs) and carrying on a discussion about what we’ve learned from the last month. We’ve both had a rough month — my job status changed and he lost his soul-mate Molly the dog. He gave me some really good advice and I thought I’d share his words with you.

1. Always be positive. A dog that wags his tail gets more pets than a growling one.

2. Blaming yourself for something you had no control over is as fruitless as chasing your tail.

3. Always bury a few bones for a rainy day.

4. Your real friends are the ones who still will pet you when you roll in crap.

5. Just because someone puts a collar on you doesn’t mean they own you.

6. Cherish the moment. The treat. The nap. The walk. The scratch behind the ear.

7. If you want friends, be a friend. How do I know this? I’m man’s best friend aren’t I?

8. Always be excited when someone you care about comes home. Greet them accordingly. When they leave, act like it is the biggest tragedy ever.

9. Fiercely protect your territory. Your people. Your pack.

10. Happiness may or not be a warm puppy, but it works for me.

Which is more messed up? The one that pets the crap coated friend or the one rolling in said crap?

What's a rainy day?

I like this one the best. Burying a bone is one of my favorite activities.

Fixed it for ya'. You must have me confused with a normal person. I've told you people before that I was a porn film star in my younger days. Don't you remember the old McDonald's slogan about the Whopper? "It takes two hands.........
