Waiting Room

Booger WAS at the Dentist...
I suppose my relationship with him is a bit over the line...
(the tech's last words to me as they walked down the hall
were something about
"if there are any serious complications, which happen at times.....")

eeuw...
but, Booger is special...

he was WeberGrill's newsletter, the GrillOutTimes official star
developing quite a following...
even getting fan mail...

he is the dog who was gone 40 days and 40 nights to return on Tony's birthday.....
part one of the tale I'll finish sooner or later in woodblock form...

he died on the operating table the next year when they took his gall bladder out...
but, tough little dog that he is, decided not to leave just yet...
so, he's into his 3rd life...

He IS the embodyment of the Small Dog of Power...

Strong, brave and handsome....in PERSON!

So this is what took my mind off "complications"....

I thought this was a medical crisis. But teeth cleaning?
I think you need to do a humor piece about doggie dental care.

yeh...I know....
but, I've got this imagination that runs...and in the right/wrong mood, one word is nothing more than a germinating seed....
but for those who don't know, I told a little more about Booger....
and yes..
I do have this thing about teeth and dentists...
and you are correct...
a bit more can/should/will be done on their "choppers".
