Dodged a Bullet Yesterday

Ha! That's a laugh. I mentioned Tango was blind in one eye but he doesn't have great vision in the other, particularly at night. If he wants to go into a dark room he stands at the door and barks. One of us then goes and turns a light on for him.

Who trained who?

Which is funny, since they usually rely much more on their noses than their eyes.

But I'm moving farther and farther away from that owning stuff anyway. It's a bit OT, but only a tiny bit. Hungarian scientists, if I'm not mistaken, have trained dogs to lie perfectly still under an MRI. The discoveries they made are really inspiring and humbling, since the dog brain uses the exact same emotional centers as the human brain under similar conditions. They also investigated eye movement and discovered that dogs assess humans and other dogs in the same way we do when meeting someone.

I'd really love for our christians friends to climb from their homocentric high horse and have some more respect for our fellow beings.
