Jackiesdaisy- Hey, I just love that last quote! I want at least 2 more dogs. First one I'll name "Bobby McGee" after that great ol' hippie song, done by everyone from Janice Joplin, Kenny Rogers, Kris Kristopherson, to Gordon Lightfoot. Second dog will be named "Shageluk" after a wonderful group of Athabascan kids at Innoko school on the Iditarod trail. BUT of course the BEST DOG OF ALL IS THE ONE YOU HAVE NOW!

fuzzy-thanks for the puzzle info. I bookmarked it. Hope I get in on the next one. What I do now? Will nu.59 show up on the bookmarked puzzle page. Here's another quote: "If a dog will not come to you after having looked you in the face, you should go home and examine your conscience. (Woodrow Wilson)
