I sat on the deck this morning and thought some thoughts.
.
.
Why don’t dogs wear flip-flops in the summer?
.
.
How many dog CEO’s are there among the Fortune 500 companies?
.
.
How many Cardigan Welsh Corgis does it take to keep the sun lit?
.
.
The frog gave no answers, but he never does. I like to hang out with him though. His stoic quietness is rather comforting.
Those are very intelligent thoughts from you Checkers. You must have learned your stoicism (is this a word?) from your frog buddy. You’re both very cute (and stoic).

BTW, you’d make a much better CEO than many of the ones out there!

1. no flip flops because you don’t have a big toe that would keep the flop on.
2. no ceos because dogs don’t care about material wealth in the terms of money.
3. corgi love is illuminating…if everyone had a corgi…we probably wouldn’t need the sun.
did you jump up on that bench yourself?

Dogs wear flip-flops in the summer because if they did it would ~COMPLETELY~ upset the frog/human balance of power.

The frog/human balance of power…humm…

goodbear, thanks for very good answers. How do you know so much?!
I did get a little boost up on the bench! You think of everything.

Checkers–
Thoughtful side of you, you must get that from me. Did your feederwalker show you the pictures of your Grandma Abbey. That’s where you get those gorgeous blue eyes.
Keep up the profound thinkings.

Hi Checkers,
I am testing to see if my picture shows up now. I asked the techies at wordpress why my picture doesn’t show it and they told me what to do. Now let’s see if it works.
Love

Goodbear knows all the answers because she can read. I thought the first question was, Why don’t frogs wear flipflops in the summer? And I figgered, ’cause, like, they’re permanently equipped already, eh?
Love that last shot, Checkers — you could start a line of inspirational greeting cards for animals.

Why Checkers! You’re a poet!
Not a fashion, guru, perhaps — do you really want to wear flip-flops??

PS Do Corgis have webbed toes?

Why, yes, we do! Maybe I’m part duck!
