#1 Very touching. They're such trusting creatures; I doubt we deserve them.

Did you notice President Bush petting one of the dogs? He's such a genuine man.

#2 Heh - I wondered who'd catch them! There are actually two slides with Dubya! And yep, he is, indeed, a genuine man. Good catch, Barbara!

#3 I gave $25 to the NYC ASPCA after the 9/11 attacks in honor of Rudy Guiliani because they said it would go to the Rescue Dogs and animals abandoned by their owners who were killed in the attacks or left because their owners couldn't go back to their apartments, like the folks who lived in Battery Park City.
They said the K-9 dogs were getting burned paws from working on the still hot wreckage at Ground Zero.

The story that really got me was when the K-9 handlers said they had to pretend to find "someone" because even these dogs were depressed that they weren't finding anyone in the rubble of the WTC.
I can't look at 9/11 pictures now without crying, but thanks, Dotcom. We need this tonight for sure.
I will never forget 9/11.

I will never forget, either. It took me many years of self-indulgence and wasted motion, prolly par for the course, but I finally got it -- I know what's important, now.
