<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>Hi, it's me, Clyde Kadiddlehopper!! </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>Remember the book, Champion Sleeper, you all loved so much??? Well, now it's going to be a calendar filled with pictures of your favorite Drool hounds, well, not me or the 3 Bears or not so wee Gracie Allen. Why not, you ask??? Well, because we have the blondeslave who is supposed to take care of these things and SHE MISSED THE DEADLINE...sigh.... Anyway, in a lame attempt to make it up to us she gave each of us $5.00 to vote for our favorite hounds whose slaves actually got their act together and entered pictures. Have you gone to look yet? There are some fabulous pictures entered but only the hounds with the most votes will have their own calendar month so they need you to vote, vote, vote. It's only $1.00 per vote-sheesh, a latte or fancy coffee is worth 5 votes, a packed lunch instead of take out is at least 5 votes. All profits from the calendar will go to Ohio Basset Hound Rescue courtesy of Miss Hannah Bandannah and her slave Auntie Kathi. This is Hannah's first fund raiser-won't you help her make it a HUGE success?? Please help the homeless hounds of OBR by voting? Now we know it's a Holiday weekend but just take a couple of minutes to look at the entries and vote for your favorite pictures!!!!!! Just go here:</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It's really easy-even the blondeslave was able do it!!! Oh, not so wee Gracie Allen(who is on a diet to get back to wee status) is strutting around this morning all puffed up because she has soooo many birthday greetings. She just turned 3 years old. The blondeslave has steaks in the fridge for later and she says she has some other special treats too(guess the diet is out the window for today). Anyway, Gracie Allen wants to thank everyone who sent birthday greetings-she laughed out loud at the one wit, " two PP's".</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
