@SteelCurtain: Such beautiful dogs! I know they're happy to have a good home.
@Deidre: Great pictures. ^^ I love nature shots. If I ever started doing photography as a hobby, I'd definitely want to do a lot of outdoor shots.
I reckon I've been here long enough to show y'all my face. I hate to in a way because it breaks the illusion of you guys imagining me looking like my avatar and idol Toshiro Mifune.

Thanks, Strider. Tanner appreciates the love!
Lord Toranaga is quite awesome, indeed.

Is it bad that I don't know who that is?
