lets hope i state this last part in an understandable way^ This world/life is all im sure i have, what comes after is unsure to me... So with all things in this perspective, If this is all there is. How could it not be perfect...
I think that is the end of my opinions today.
1) If you could be instantly fluent in one other language that you currently do not read or speak, which would it be? Japinese, It would open job oportunities, and allow me to play untranslated games with ease.
Jim Hawkins from Treasure planet.
That would be just awsome.
3) If you could receive one small package this very moment, who would it be from and what would be in it? I would like some time to think about this one.
5) If you were instantly able to play one musical instrument perfectly that you never have played before, what would it be? some sort of cool sounding guitar, I'm trying to start a band... although the piano is very buitiful sounding... *looks distressed* i suppose i would chose the piano.
6) If you could possess one supernatural ability, what would it be? passing through inanimate objects would be interesting and fun, but would ruin reality mentally. I suppose i would like to move as fast as Neo from the matrix. Time is so uncomprehensable, i dont think it would mess up to much.
I would say, learning how to make different people smile. although im still working on that one, some moods are nearly impossible to break.
8) If you could have only one piece of furniture in your house, what would it be?
an extra large bean bag. Multi purpose.
If I know it is ment to be private, i dont think i would read it. Sorry.
10) If you could have one person you know as your slave for one month, who would it be? i dont think i would want a slave.
firstly, i wouldnt want to know my choice, if i was forced to chose. Secoundly i wouldnt want to chose.
14) If you could choose the music at your funeral, what would it be, and who would play it? I'm Still Here, by the googooDolls i think, but i dont know who i would want to play it. I would hope its someone i dont know, at least i think that would be better on everone. Maybe its not even a good song because it may lead to denile, wich is supposed to be a bad thing.
No one. at least not perminately.
Able to follow confusing pointless conversations (not nessisary but nice), someone who rarly critisizes people, someone who appreciates doors being open for her, but never demands it or looks like she expects it. Someone who likes who I am (most important), someone rather spontanious in the way they talk plus changing topics seemingly randomly is nice at times. I would like her to be beutiful. I would also like her to pay attention to me while im around. and be happy. Plus i would like her to socially challenge me to say everything just right. (The constant pull to do and say things better makes life seem more... like life), I would like her to spend a good amount of time with me, and to talk about her interests and back up her oppinions. Showing up unexspectedly cant hurt, and complements mean alot to me.
17) If you had to have a personal friend redecorate your house, who would you pick to do it? Holly, Im sure it would turn out pritty awsome.
Define lived in... I supose i like them all in there own way anyway, but if lived in includes just one day visits, it would change a few things, but i dont think i hated any place.
Reformating or devirusing my computer.
Whats wrong with playing video games, and understanding computers, and coming fully equiped with writing utencles?
I can still be cool!
Frost will attempt to construct more poems.Ale Kino! on Tour - Young Audience Film Festival

Site WebWhy Teach Stay? Or Obedience??
I got this from Ann Seymour, my client and friend of 15 years this afternoon:
“Maus is a red mini dachshund who is fear aggressive, mainly to other dogs, but with other issues as well, most involving the word “aggressive.” She’s a lot better than when she first came to me, and that is entirely due to the classes she continues to take at DogTrain, including Advanced classes. She loves to work, she knows the commands, but her behavior needs improvement. For that, exposure to the behavior of other dogs and owners is invaluable – especially inexperienced dogs who (understandably) can display a degree of uncertainty as they and their owners continue to learn how to work together, control their adrenaline, and listen. So, my favorite sessions are the ones most like real life: when dogs break stays, steal treats, try the patience of their owners, and challenge Maus to control herself and me to keep her focused and calm. All this with Diane aware of everything, in control, and calling out instructions and encouragement to owners (and intervening if need be). In one recent class, during a “hustle” (aka: Paper plate recalls) exercise, Maus hustled on one side of the room while another hustled on the other side. The other dog – a lovely, super-nice young Great Dane – ultimately found Maus way more interesting than the treat on the plate (or her equally super-nice owner) and came bounding after Maus. I called Maus in and she stayed focused on me instead of attacking the Dane (well – when the Dane turned to go to her owner, Maus did try to nip her back leg, but I think there was almost some humor in that not entirely serious nip, and Maus came immediately when I called her on it).
Hustle had one more unexpected episode. While one dog was being sent on hustle, another younger dog broke stay, raced to steal the treat before the older dog could get it, walked on top of Maus and fussed at Maus’s neighbor. Maus started to come out of her down stay, turning toward the activity – I could see air between her and the floor; she looked at me in mid-air, and when I said “stay,” immediately dropped and hugged the floor. I told her “good,” reminded her to stay while order was restored, and yes-rewarded as soon as was practical. What made this so great was that it seemed like Maus was beginning to use the floor as an anchor to hold her, reassure her, and help drain some of her adrenaline. Also unexpected was how this translated into a 15-minute down stay (sometimes with her head on the floor!) in the vet’s waiting room on Saturday, while some of the others were not quite as reserved. That kind of payoff is tremendous and couldn’t have happened without these sessions where life imposes itself on class. A kind of planned imposition, I suspect. Seeing Maus make progress toward a more balanced and stable world view is an amazing experience.
Thanks, DogTrain!

Thank YOU, Ann. And tonight, we had yet another fabulous Maus moment.
Week one of my advanced group, we put out ALL the dog bones, antlers and Kong toys in a line on the mat between the dog (who is expected to hold a stay) and the owner. The owner is to call the dog past/through/over the distractions and help as needed. Point for the dog is to learn to come when called no matter WHAT is in the way, and most of them get it in 4 to 6 tries.
I tell students it is like playing *good cop, bad cop* with your dog, verbally. Owners get four sounds. Come or here. Good. The No-reward mark of their choice, the usual here being ahh-aah. And the reward marker Yes. Some do better than others shifting gears. It is a learning experience in the timing game. But I digress...
To bring this back full circle to der Maus... I make the waiting dogs stay on a line watching the working dog. Owners typically have feet on leash, because the leash is moving out of the hand at this point. Maus was on a stay with Ann sitting across the room, as she is able to work at a higher level
