Actually there is a print screen on a mac, something like shift, control, 3 or 4 that captures the whole screen but I'm not sure how I could crop and resize it, let alone add text. But it looks pretty cool.

Meantime, I did pull out some pedigrees and it got me started searching for any siblings of Lucy's predecessors. Anyhow, I found what I thought was a hilarious judge at a specialty show. One of her comments, "Not a bad moving bitch when she decides to move, but too many trips to the kitchen has made anything more than a walk, just too much effort."

Thank you. I saw the "view thread" that you referred to but never used it. What a difference it makes! I don't have to fly blind with my responses anymore. And aren't you the nifty one with your totally cool graphic thrown in. Now how did you do that??? Don't tell me if it's too complicated. PS I agree with you completely about Facebook. I believe in privacy and frankly don't care to know anything that my kids choose not to tell me. They're all in their 20's and I trust them. One of my friends actually wrote to my dgt and asked to be her friend. My dgt. called me and asked what she should do. I told her to ignor it. Haha. I'm sure your son was equally thrilled when your wife "friended" him.

I literally laughed out loud about not enough motorcycles or corgis on the page. You are hilarious. Meantime, as soon as I try to post a comment your message disappears and it's left to my memory (what memory!!) to respond. I never tried face book, best left to my kids. Twitters a ho-hum. I do love all the Corgis. Can never get enough of them. I spent all of yesterday here, so I better sign off and get productive.

Now I remember why I have problems on this site. When I begin responding to a comment and then try to find the original comment...it all gets lost. So let me say, while I still have a thread of the conversation: I don't agree with your neighbor/shrink that opposites attract because of a fascination with the differences. That fascination would hardly last a week or two. I do think opposites open pathways and doors (I always loved The Doors) that may have been missed without each other. It's these differences (opposites) that make a relationship grow.

PS
I think your neighbor's getting the better deal! haha. Hope you're not also giving him PhotoShop help! btw, I couldn't help but notice that the website you posted for your wife had great motorcycle & life art, but no Corgis. I probably shouldn't have said this either, but, by now you know I shoot from the hip.

OK. You're going to give me a reason to go through all the crap on my desk and in the den. Sounds like you and your wife are a perfect match--opposites. Jack and I have been together for 36 (yikes!) years. We're both Leos and according to astrological BS, Leos either get along or they don't. So, yes, I think we do get along. Thanks for telling me I have to read the manual. I know I have it or could get the PDF file. I just get turned off when I can't figure the workings of something by myself. Now, I will get the manual. PS I think you mentioned that you could then edit the DVDs. What DVDs do you use that allow you to edit/delete?

I have this stupid thing about asking directions or reading a manual. I like to figure things out myself. I'm slow to accept when I need help. Clearly, I need to work on this.
At 12:05am on April 14, 2010, Lucy & Ricky (Wendy/Jack ) said…
I'm embarrassed (yet again!) to tell you that we've had a Panasonic VHS/DVD device like you mentioned and I still haven't yet figured out how to work it! I have no idea where the manual is. Maybe if I clean my room I can find it! I assume that you are the neat one. My husband, Jack––a neurologist––is totally organized, uncluttered, yet has lived to live with me (after 36 yrs) as I am...sloppy and slothful!

Sometimes things seem meant to be and they aren't. Grommit and Night seemed like a natural pair. I asked about their recognition of each other and Grommit recognizing his breeder. I was surprised when Blandie Ijams visited Dylan and Emily and they seemed to remember her. It may have just been their natural Corgi enthusiasm...but it seemed there was a connection. Yet, when Emily died (another story. ask me about it later) we were so afraid for Dylan. They had never been separated and Blandie would only sell them as a pair because they were so attached to each other. Long story short: Dylan didn't show any outward signs at all of missing her or being sad.

Another thank you. I post my photos/videos of Lucy because it captures something special to me. I love all the photos of "awkward sleepers." Doesn't take a professional photographer to grab my heart. Yet, I must add that some of the more professional photos that you, John, a few others post can sometimes take my breathe away. I esp. love all the photoshop stuff, ie. mt. corgimore; corgi ears behind the mountains. Those imaginative photos are very special.

Thanks for your advice. It also doesn't help that I use my iPhone and Flip camera instead of using my new digital camera and year-old camcorder. I also have so much tape to convert to DVD of my kids. I still have unconverted BetaMax, VHS, 8 mm. The quality is fading every day that I procrastinate and spend hours on the internet. Ditto for cleaning off my desktop. Wish it was as clean as my Mac desktops, which actually are getting more and more cluttered. Judging from your backyard equipment for Gromit, it's clear that you are very organized and uncluttered.

I probably shouldn't say this, but Gromit and Night look like they were meant to be together. Are they at least close enough for frequent visits. Does Gromit seem to recognize his mom and brother when they've been together?

This is a lovely site that Sam has created and I've met some very nice people on it. I have never done any social networking. I leave that to my kids. I tried Twitter just to see what it was about and I was not impressed. Having seen what you and John can do with your photos, I don't even know why I am thinking of adding more photos! My attempts at videos are beyond embarrassing. But, I like to learn. My Macs & music are probably my only hobbies, if that.

I often wonder if Sam T reads every comment. I am embarrassed to admit that I have spent almost the entire day on this site or scrounging around for old pedigrees. One google link opens to another and there I go spiraling, out of control down the rabbit hole. BTW, what's Corgi L?

I love every one of my Corgi breeders. They are extraordinary people and I've been blessed to have their dogs. That is why I took some offense a while back when I felt that newbies to the world of Corgis were posting opinions as facts and I felt bashing Corgi breeders, whom I feel, on the whole, are among the best by far. European judges often praise the quality and conformation of the US Corgis. I'm sure that Jean knows Tim Mathiesen, Judy Hart, Pat Pettipiece Schilling, as they were all N. CA breeders at one time. Judy is now in TN and Pat may have retired. I still miss Blandie Ijams, Roughouse, NY breeder. She actually came to visit Dylan and Emily when she came to CA to judge a show. She was a hoot! RIP Blandie, Dylan, Emily, Watson, Tinsel and all of the rest. Our lives wouldn't have been the same without you!

Thanks. Does it let you add several photos at the same time?

Gromit is such a cutie!

Glad I'm not alone. I get easily confused. I sometimes post something twice, or can't find it. Do you know of any way to email photos to this site or do you have to upload each one? Just what they need, more photos of Lucy and her predecessors!

I just googled your breeder. Jean had a puppy entered in a show with Lucy's litter mate, who is now CH Nebriowa Full of charm. Check her out: http://www.pwccsc.org/puppy2006.html

BTW, I posted a photo of Dylan and Emily, litter mates, on the Corgis Remembered site. Fortunately for us they didn't die in the same year. We got Lucy several months after losing Dylan at 14 yrs. I would love to get a tri puppy but I think Lucy would stage a revolution.

Well you did a great job on your page. I am a closet nerd. I love techie things, but lately there's no time. Happily, mycorgi.com is the first site I've ever enjoyed, and I've done more than my share of gabbing already.
