Christina Stockinger Webboard User Reg: 01-23-2015 Posts: 1619 Loc: Brazil, Bahia Offline	Quote: Bob Scott I've buried the dogs I could and my last house of almost 40 yrs had a number of graves. I always put a plant in those spots ans was able to take a lot of those with me 10 yrs ago when were moved. Last yr Thunder was the very first dog I've ever had cremated. Still haven't decided on a spot for that. I had buried my cats in our garden in Switzerland and planted bushes or trees near the graves. But then we had to move to another canton, where of course we had cats again and did the same thing with the ones who died. One cat we had cremated, the one who died short time before we emigrated to Brazil. We took his ashes with us. He is still in a drawer of my bedside table! Didn't have the guts to bury him, as we don't know if some day we will leave Brazil and then we wouldn't be able to take him with us. Didn't know i was so sentimental. “If you can keep your head when all around you are losing theirs, then you are a leader” – Rudyard Kipling

Also the boxcar children, and with my upbringing, a boxcar would have been heaven! Also the Borrowers, Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys..ah the good classics. Someone needs to do a book trading! How did I neglect to mention any of those!? All on my "re-read" rotation! Googling The Borrowers, I see that there is one more than the three I know and have. There's also a Borrowers Avenged (many years later). And Tracey, I looked up that NCIS "Seek" episode ... wow, that looks good! Don't know how I missed a K9 episode.

Kelly Moderator Reg: 06-03-2005 Posts: 1495 Loc: Offline	Quote: tracey holden I re-watched one of my favourite NCIS vids over the weekend - god, I love Mark Harmon! - it was an episode called 'Seek' with a bomb dog called Dex. I had run out of tissues by the time the credits rolled! That one made me cry too. There is a Bones episode with Cesar Millan and a Malinois that was involved in a dog fighting ring. I can't bear to watch that one again - I cried my eyes out over it ... Connie, I got the entire Black Stallion series of books as a kid and I still re-read them when I get a chance

QUOTE: This Townsend Library classic has been carefully edited to be more accessible to today's students. It includes a background note about the book, an author's biography, and a lively afterword. Acclaimed by educators nationwide, the Townsend Library is helping millions of young adults discover the pleasure and power of reading. END I will have it Wednesday!
