About Touille
Touille was a shy but lively little Chihuahua Terrier mix (with a little Dachshund thrown in). She weighed seven and a half pounds, and lived to be 17 years old. She never could reach the computer keyboard, so MB types for her. (By the way, "Touille" rhymes with "phooey" or "chewy".)
Touille passed away May 27, 2006. MB will keep Touille's blog in cyberspace.
About Me
- Name: MB
- Location: St. Louis, Missouri, United States
MB loves to sing but is not a soloist. She's a good dancer, an excellent speller, and an avid photographer. Most of her clothes are bought at the thrift shop. She's got an old car and (had) an old dog. Reads mostly memoirs and books about language, enjoys living alone, though if she had more money she'd hire a maid to clean up the place more often. MB used to live in New Jersey, but has lived in St. Louis, Missouri since 1976. One of her friends told her she "eats like a Jersey Mule". email me: Lotsa AT kdhx DOT org

Dogs display reluctance and wrath
If you try to give them a bath
They bury bones in hideaways
And half the time they trot sideaways.

- Doug Larson"A dog owns nothing, yet is seldom dissatisfied."
- Irish Proverb"A barking dog is often more useful than a sleeping lion."
- Washington Irving"In order to really enjoy a dog, one doesn't merely try to train him to be semihuman. The point of it is to open oneself to the possibility of becoming partly a dog."
- Edward Hoagland"Dogmatism is puppyism come to its full growth."
