Note for Haloscan Users: Haloscan started (the end of July) rejecting trackbacks if they were submitted “too rapidly” by the same host. I don’t know what the timer is but it is long enough so that it was very difficult to ping everyone that is using Haloscan for trackbacks. I’m sure that they are doing this to try to hold back the tide of trackback spam but it makes the service pretty useless for carnival type posts. Perhaps you can contact them and urge some different solution. Update: Typepad appears to be doing the same thing. Everytime I update the Ark it appears the timers are reset and the long list of MT autogenerated pings fail. Yecchhhh….

I don’t think Diamond enjoys her vacations as much as I enjoy mine. I suspect there’s too much barking at the kennel that keeps her up at night, because she generally just collapses …
With mixed weather conditions, Sasha and Taffy opt for a change of pace, and are joined by Lindy and Mick, the dalmatian.

Momma Thumbs is such a show-off… I tried to explain to her that polydactyl mowy doggies just aren’t that rare, but she insisted on posing to show off those beautiful feets. She’s posed here with Elder… Patches, the baby polydactyl,…

“That could be a problem”
A 19th Century saying, ‘the cat shuts its eyes when it steals cream,’ suggests a cat denying it is doing wrong, though this isn’t likely to be through guilt. Cats often half-close their eyes when they are enjoying something
