Hey Twisterdogs,

I'm writing a piece for Patch.com on puppy mills and pet store pets. If you know of anyone who got their pets from a pet store, will you let me know? 860-794-1157. I can call you back so it won't cost you anything. I got an awesome interview with someone from a place that rescues puppy mill dogs at "dog auctions" in Missouri. The things she told me would curl your hair.

My email is [email protected] Please use that email as that's my primary one that I save all my columns in. Don't know when the article will run, but I'll let you know. Would love to talk to you!!

I've been reading Tolkien since I was about 10, starting with The Hobbit - I was introduced to it when my older sister read it for school and I helped her do a project for the class. We created our own Hobbiton using little models on a big piece of plywood. I absolutely love his writing and am delighted with the LOTR movies as well. I think the director remained very true to the stories and did a fabulous job. I lose myself in them about once a year. . .

Have you ever read the Silmarillion? I have started it on a few occasions, but it's so dense and complicated that I end up putting it down. I have a book on tape version that I found on the internet but I haven't attempted it yet.

Your signature quotes are most excellent. . .
