Offerings this year were pretty anemic. What can we expect for 2012? More, I would hope. Does this muse still have a view? Offerings this year were pretty anemic. What can we expect for 2012?

He was stricken, even though he knew it was coming. You know those concert ticket stubs you've saved for decades- because it was a great moment in your life? My honey has his Apple/Mac stubs from the various keynote speeches he attended over the years. These stubs are more meaningful to him than probably all my concert stubs combined. If you haven't seen it, try catching a show called The Pirates of Silicon Valley- it's entertaining :) My other half has followed this man for years.

Right or wrong, it is our nature. Both of these change with age, and not all for the better.

The service dog "issue" is well known - that's why the post office sign specifically says only "seeing eye" and "hearing ear" dogs are allowed, not other service dogs. No matter how bad the service dog "issue" gets, no one is going to deny those truly in need. We ARE substitute children so this "issue" is completely understandable and is not going away because of complaints on a blog. Now stop whining and tell me how cute I am! Ruff! -Chocula Yah, Humans over-react a lot.

People who are disabled have a hard enough time getting into places. The last thing they need is some idiot bragging about misusing a fake service dog, regardless of how old she is or cute the dog is. Sometimes it may be hard for us to understand it but thing like this directly affect the public trust of what a service dog is, which then causes confrontations with legitimate service dog owners who are just trying to go about their business. Jim, I don't think KJ means to come of as flippant as she does over the issue, at least I hope not. I have witnesseded this with my sister and her service dog, who is a German Shepard. She is always confronted by store workers but they usually back off. One person at the mall told her he was sorry, but so many people try to pass off pets as service dogs that it has become a problem. That statement was reinforced by thJusticeie Department when they changed the definition of service dog March 15, 2011. Most dogs are pets. While they have some emotion, dont care if they are left home, until humans bring them everywhere wth them and conditon them as substitute children. Pets are just as happy to hang out at home and chew on their favorite bone or sleep. Certaily that is a better option than ascribing human emotions to your pet and breaking the law. Even if you accept that a pet has human emotions, do you drag your mother with you every place you go? When your mother did it to you did you like it? Get real guys. I love my dog like no other, but I would never consider tramppling someone else's rights to bring her into a store. I for one must agree with Jim here.
