<br />
He asked us some pretty hard questions! We did our best to answer the questions and fill in a bit of a background. So, if you want to know how and when I started blogging, why I call Teka my nemesis, and where our name for the human female person who brings food (muzzer) came from, head right over to <a href="http://bichonking.blogspot.com/">Fred's Blog</a> and you can find out the answers to these and other most important questions!<br />
<br />
That's http://bichonking.blogspot.com/ in case you missed the last two links! <br />
<br />
Let's all support Fred in this effort. Remember he has a lot of females depending on him!<br />

Teka Got this new bed for Christmas!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Muzzer was a bit bummed....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
because she thought this would be perfect for the little sprout!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Teka always likes to be UNDER the </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
duvet and blankies on the big bed.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Doesn't matter how cold it is or</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
how warm it might be!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
So you see how perfect this bed is?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We are very happy that we forgot to </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
move it off the bigger dog bed when the rugs </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
got vacuumed. We think it was quite serendipitous.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We will update with any further developments.</div>

And spending it with loved ones furry and smooth. To see what the Wirey Pack and friends are doing for New Years Eve, please go to <a href="http://www.astasworld.blogspot.com/">www.astasworld.blogspot.com</a> and see photos from BOTH of our celebrations. My parents are keeping the home fires burning, and will probably greet the New Year on UK time. Their hearts are in the highlands and the streets and alleys of Oxford. </div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Teka had to go see the Dog Dentist today to get her pearly whites polished. She sends her best, and asks whether she will qualify for the "Lambshank Gang" now?</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Sigh....I miss her, but being an only dog has been pretty much fun.</span><br />

We ganged up and made the muzzer post.<br />

Helped of course, by the fact that she leads a life of leisure on the road, and we pulled the guilt card.<br />

Anyway.....We are in St. Loulis visiting out Aunt Marie. She lives in a big house with lots of people.<br />
<br />
Kind of like a dormitory at Dad's University, except:<br />
<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>There are not as many computers</li>
<li>The televisions are louder</li>
<li>The music here is largely Gershwin, Goodman and Golden Oldies</li>
<li>The folks are more willing to give us treats.</li>
</ul>

Anyway...we digress.</div>

She and her "much younger" friend Miss Lorraine like to sit on the patio in Aunt Marie's building and work on their sun tans. This time of year there is almost always a Mama Duck, who discovered the patio a few years ago and comes here to have her babies. This is the second year we have been visiting when the ducks are in residence. We have not been allowed to get near them!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
However, muzzer took some pictures of us behind the door and the ducks, Aunt Marie and Miss Lorraine on the patio. Enjoy!<br />

My sweet Miss Asta is having surgery on Friday morning to remove a suspicious mass from her bladder. Please keep her and her Mommi and Daddi close to your hearts and in your prayers tonight and tomorrow and until we find out she is feeling better! <br />

It started out raining and dreary</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgl2womcfzyOi9Kx_xVuTc15RiAu-iKL1Km5PWYm0W04IYzJqZrf1uQotgfvW4FvB4uyWU2Wo_q5YP-QDufXKoVx-u_h4gUBidhsyBqzyIWBHRPk6F8jj_dXy1BbRbOV7OnLwQh/s1600/monday+lexington+002.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgl2womcfzyOi9Kx_xVuTc15RiAu-iKL1Km5PWYm0W04IYzJqZrf1uQotgfvW4FvB4uyWU2Wo_q5YP-QDufXKoVx-u_h4gUBidhsyBqzyIWBHRPk6F8jj_dXy1BbRbOV7OnLwQh/s320/monday+lexington+002.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And me and Teka thought we might be spending the day </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
cooped up in the car or in the room</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgESKvDC6co7E559EbJmI82AfE76AwXeq9m9PZWwo15lWS6hjDlLJk-lE_FXqxqhGRuSMIwG0eOI34cekW9Rlt8u4ZrLv_S0_Z-p0K_on7YKpyR-x05hnu6Vd0BJ4gqj7RQ3mEe/s320/monday+lexington+003.JPG" width="320" /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But the humans got moving. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And I made sure Muzzer did not drown in the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
shower thingy.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I led my pack on another great </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Today we went to <a href="http://www.goby.com/woods-creek-park--near--lexington-va/e-1527892#source=virginia.org">Woods Creek Park</a></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
All y'all know that my Dad is a big fan</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of the St. Louis Cardinals.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But did you know that my sissie E.Rabbit is too?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(So is E.Beth, but she is not as Rabid as the Rabbit)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As you can see above...he began indoctrinating</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
E.Rabbit very early. That picture was taken at </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a game in St. Loulis in 1982. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Muzzer was prolly at the concession stand at the time,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
or maybe she just skipped the game.)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyway...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Here they are looking pretty happy at </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the game last night, where the STL Cardinals</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
beat the Washington Redskins in Dee See. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They may have been the only happy folk in the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
stadium. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Dad sounded a bit sleepy this morning when he</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
called us, but we know he is still a happy camper.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

The Wonderful Thing about Mango<br />
Is he was a wonderful thing<br />
His top was made out of rubber<br />
His bottom was made out of springs<br />
Think bouncy, trouncy, flouncy, pouncy<br />
Fun, fun, fun, fun, FUN!<br />
But the most wonderful thing about Mango<br />
Is He's the only one<br />
<br />
The wonderful thing about Mango<br />
Is he was a wonderful chap!<br />
Just loaded with vim and with vigor<br />
He'd love to leap in your laps<br />
Think bouncy, trouncy, flouncy, pouncy<br />
Fun, fun, fun, fun, FUN!<br />
But the most wonderful thing about Mango<br />
Is He's the only one<br />
Oh he was a wonderful fellah.<br />
And he was just awfully sweet.<br />
Everyone else is jealous,<br />
And that's why I repeat...<br />
<br />
The wonderful thing about Mango<br />
Is not just relentlessly huge<br />
Cause there are a lot of big doggies<br />
But he is the one we would choose<br />
Think bouncy, trouncy, flouncy, pouncy<br />
Fun, fun, fun, fun, FUN!<br />
But the most wonderful thing about Mango<br />
Is He's the only one<br />
<br />
Now Mango would show you his dancing<br />
He truly was light on his feet<br />
And while he was out there prancing<br />
Well, he looked a marvelous treat.<br />
<br />
Accompanied by his Momma<br />
With Dexter there keeping the beat<br />
He captured the heart of all blogland<br />
And that is why we repeat:<br />
The wonderful thing about Mango<br />
Is he was a wonderful thing<br />
He managed to leave us all smiling<br />
Remembering how he would sing<br />
Think bouncy, trouncy, flouncy, pouncy<br />
Fun, fun, fun, fun, FUN!<br />
But the most wonderful thing about Mango<br />
Is He's the only one<br />
<br />
<br />
Yes Heeeeee's the only one.<br />
<br />
<br />
With Thanks to Mango Momma for the portrait and to AA Milne for the inspiration.<br />

It has been kind of boring around here. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We did have one adventure last week. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We went to do a home visit for Wirey Rescue.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The lady liked me and I liked the lady.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We gave her, her house and her hubby a thumbs up.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They need help with those pesky sqrrrls around there!</div>

Me and Teka were so happy on the way home we played a bit</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of bitey face! This made the muzzer crazy because she wants </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
us to stay in our assigned seats and be nice to one another </div>

To the Muzzer complain about her computer.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So we took our saved up allowances</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(all of hers and some of mine)</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And we went to the pooter store</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and picked one out for her!</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is the one we got her.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Teka says it is pretty.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And I like it because it only weighs five pounds!</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Y'all should know first of all that no corgis were harmed in</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the production of this blog entry.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Last week my dad had a colleague come to town to deliver a</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
paper at a kind of summer colloquium. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is the first time we have met this colleague, but he seemed </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
like a nice kind of guy. Then we smelled his shoes and socks!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Turns out he has two corgis.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
TWO!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Their names are Ricky and Kirby.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And from the picture below, they are kind of OK.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-L_HE552820_23O2x-0tXMZeb5M8E6pO33vPwOxdjFg0VU5ZkUduelAPejUWOPv7Pxi5lY9LCJgF4uIGWgT_2rdZAxXylB-QmbDbzXYIChaAFRDs3ZWARxTyLb_Lkk5x1xuK0/s1600/corgies2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-L_HE552820_23O2x-0tXMZeb5M8E6pO33vPwOxdjFg0VU5ZkUduelAPejUWOPv7Pxi5lY9LCJgF4uIGWgT_2rdZAxXylB-QmbDbzXYIChaAFRDs3ZWARxTyLb_Lkk5x1xuK0/s320/corgies2.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
See. Don't they look harmless?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And even maybe a little cute?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh, maybe even a little too angelic for words.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yeah. We thought so too. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then Muzzer broke out the PetSmart bag.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And she had two toys for these guys.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One for each of them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And as if that was not bad enough, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the pictures below came in Dad's email </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
with a thank you note for the toys.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Look at this!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What self respecting dog would be this</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
quiet and good when confronted by a toy</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that Bounces and Squeaks?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can sure tell these guys are not Terriers!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I bet they tore into them as soon as the pictures were taken!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Teka and I did not wait for any stinking pictures.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We went right for the jugular. Or in this case,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the squeaker!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And these toys took a beating and kept on squeaking!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Muzzer had to put them up for a day to let them</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
dry out. Then those sneaky squeaky toys </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
started squeaking again.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We would give them a thumbs up, if we </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
had thumbs. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just sayin', these are pretty fine play things.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Gussie n Teka</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
oh, and we think Ricky and Kirby like them too.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
My great pal and inspiration</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My longtime mentor and friend</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Buster W. Smith</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Has crossed the Rainbow Bridge.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I join all his pals in celebrating </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
his life and many loves.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know he was met at the Bridge</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
by Terrier Pals and honorary <span style="background-color: white;">terriers. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;">Legion in numbers and strong in Spirit(s).</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;">Bussie had a joie de vivre most awesome.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;">He will long be remembered in songs and poems,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;">and will live furever in the hearts of his family and friends.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The most awesome set of wheels awaited him at the Bridge</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
filled with beautiful female dogs, libations and treats.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Drive carefully Bussie, I'd like to have a chance to </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
drive your car when I join you.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
