Dog balances food on his head

dog balance food on headGet your cat to do this!  Get your cat to do anything you want for that matter. Cats are libertarians. I would guess dogs are liberals.  Republicans are…

I can tell you how to get your dog to do this balancing act in just a few days.

While watching TV with a bowl of popcorn, have your dog sit next to your chair so you don’t have to move or reach far, hold its snout and balance a piece of popcorn on its nose. Hold for a while softly saying STAY and they say OKAY! To it about 25 times a night for several nights and you will be able to balance anything anywhere on your dog.

In Korea dogs have no names other than on a menu.

Looking back at my first day in the third world a few things still stand out for me.

On a warm June day the airplane door opened at Kimpo Airport in Seoul to the overpowering smell of human waste which was the dominate rice paddy fertilizer. I got in the open jeep for the hour ride up to the DMZ. The 400 pound pigs tied legs up behind wobbly bicycles. Passing old men trotting along the side of the road with a shoulder yolk of two buckets of slopping poop spilling on the road. The treeless brown landscape full of rocks and homes made of Falstaff beer cans. Taking pictures of the Ho’s on the street causing them to chase the jeep while poopting in their hands to fling at me. The clothless toddlers sitting in the dirt roads that were being swept by old women and men with straw brooms. But none of it hit me as hard as when we stopped in a small town to grab a beer and I walked past a butcher store with dogs hanging in the window, skinned and gutted with the heads still intact so you could tell what kind of dogs they were. That’s when I knew I wasn’t in Oshkosh anymore.
