I can generally put her to sleep this way. When I had a smaller couch, her head would hang over the edge, and at the end of the rub, she would sneeze. I found this so humorous, and use to think what a clear mind she has now that she is ready to sleep and dogs rely so much on their noses for sensory perception. I am always fascinated that they can move their nose halves in seperate directions at the same time. Does that mean they can think two thoughts simultaneously, this must be living in a seperate dimension for sure. <br /><br />Snow what are your thoughts on a dog that can percieve 19 or twenty verbal commands, but most assuredly when not dreaming be able to percieve remembrances of locations from smell and air currents. Does the wind talk to them ya think?The Tuskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11372022574714082288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23830899.post-18111131928306090682010-10-04T19:15:10.714-07:002010-10-04T19:15:10.714-07:00If your pain went away for a while that means that...If your pain went away for a while that means that it can go away.

If you don't like silent films or films in black and white, certainly not. The title of the approximately 30 minute movie is "The Boat," and it was made in 1921. Buster Keaton did his own stunts, and was responsible for the content of his own movies until 1928 or, perhaps, '29 when he went under contract to one of the big studios, so, if I were you, and I wanted to check him out, I would avoid all of his movies from 1929 on. His movie "The General" was made 30 miles from my home in Oregon, by the way, and is quite possibly his best known.Snowbrushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00436087215476479042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23830899.post-66435114638182808432010-10-02T22:47:03.225-07:002010-10-02T22:47:03.225-07:00SNOW - says - Did you ever see the Buster Keaton ...SNOW - says - Did you ever see the Buster Keaton movie in which he couldn't get the boat he built out of his basement?<br /><br />Tusk says - No -<br /><br />Should I make an effort to find it in rental world somewhere, be it Blockbuster or Netflix, or borrow it from a friend or better yet secretly find it at the Library, and when checking it out say " Ohh that old thing, I don't know what I was thinking"The Tuskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11372022574714082288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23830899.post-55765161346805872602010-10-02T19:35:25.879-07:002010-10-02T19:35:25.879-07:00I'm so glad you had a few days free of pain du...I'm so glad you had a few days free of pain during which you could do what you most wanted to do.
