He was lost!–Not a shade of doubt of that;
For he never barked at a slinking cat,
But stood in the square where the wind blew raw,
With a drooping ear, and a trembling paw,
And a mournful look in his pleading eye,
And a plaintive sniff at the passer-by
That begged as plain as a tongue could sue,
“Oh, Mister, please may I follow you?”
A lorn, wee waif of a tawny brown
Adrift in the roar of a heedless town.
Oh, the saddest of sights in a world of sin
Is a little lost pup with his tail tucked in!
Well, he won my heart (for I set great store
On my own red Bute, who is here no more)
So I whistled clear, and he trotted up,
And who so glad as that small lost pup?
Now he shares my board, and he owns my bed,
And he fairly shouts when he hears my tread.
Then if things go wrong, as they sometimes do,
And the world is cold, and I’m feeling blue,
He asserts his right to assuage my woes
With a warm, red tongue and a nice, cold nose,
And a silky head on my arm or knee,
And a paw as soft as a paw can be.
When we rove the woods for a league about
He’s as full of pranks as a school let out;
For he romps and frisks like a three-months colt,
And he runs me down like a thunder-bolt.
Oh, the blithest of sights in the world so fair
Is a gay little pup with his tail in air!

Announcing a new Major Website service. Your own personal web portal.
What is a Personal Portal?
A personal portal is a site on the World Wide Web that typically provides personalized capabilities to its visitors, providing a pathway to other content. Personal portals can be related to any specific topic such as providing friend information on a social network or providing links to outside content that may help others beyond your reach of services. Portals are not limited to simply providing links. Information or content that you are putting on the Internet creates a portal, or a path to new knowledge and/or capabilities.
Are you are on Facebook, Twitter, Linked In, or any of the other hundreds of social networking sites? Do you have a business as well as a personal website and maybe a blog, forum or two?

I put the new coat on him this morning and took him for a walk and then over to see the boys off to school. When we got back to the house he ran in and jumped up on the couch and just stood there. I went over to take his coat off and he was looking at me through the corner of his eyes. I said,”Why are you looking at me that way?” When I reached down to take the coat off I realized that the Velcro strip around his chest had stuck to the coach and he couldn’t move. I could not stop laughing at my poor little friend. Peanut didn’t think it was funny at all.
