Lap Dance
Jack is not an animal lover. He has no pets. In fact, the only photo that exists of me with an animal is from 1972 - little Jack and a duck. Yes, a duck.
So with that preface, let me vent......
I am a proponent of personal choice. Your passions, fetishes and idiosyncrasies are just that - yours. Who am I to judge?
But for heaven's sake, why does a grown man choose to drive around with a little dog on his lap?
I'm not sure if it is DRIVING with a dog on your lap or driving with a DOG on your lap that bothers me. Most likely it is because a GROWN MAN was DRIVING with a DOG on his lap!
I guess it could be worse - it could have been a duck.
No Regrets.

The Bible Agrees

Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation and leaves no regret, but worldly sorrow brings death.
No Regret.

Boating Lesson II
I have been thinking about my last post lately. True, I can't change the way the wind blows, but who says I can't change the body of water? If I simply adjust my sails in the current lake with the same wind pattern, the result will be a circle - at best.
Quit trying to change the wind. Quit trying to adjust the sails in a hurricane. Move the boat.

Boating Lessons
My favorite bit of wisdom goes like this, "I can't change the way the wind blows, I can only adjust my sails."
It reminds me that so much of my day (and my life) is outside my control. Therefore, focus on what I can control - my thoughts and actions. Today presented the perfect opportunity to exercise this wisdom. An adverse wind was blowing today and I had a choice - become pounded against the reef or adjust my sails and find a safe harbor.
Thankfully, I have loaded my boat with good co-captains.
Maybe I should get a tattoo of a sailboat?

Quality Customer Service
This is Kara who was kind enough to participate in the making of a funny slideshow. The service was outstanding. I will not name the hotel chain as to protect her identity. Thanks for playing Kara!
