<p class=MsoNormal>It’s me again – Norm!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have been reading the Drools with Mom every night –
she says too many houndies are going to the Bridge and FeyFey is working
overtime. And then there are all of those houndies who are sick and are
having zippers put in them. You guys have to quit that – it makes
my Mom’s eyes leak. Get well and heart healing drools to all
that need them.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Anyway, I think I need some information. I have looked
all over this BIG OLD house – I looked upstairs, in the attic (wow –
talk about neat sniffs), in the bedrooms, in the bathrooms, in the kitchen, in
all four living rooms, in the laundry room, in the basement and in the garage –
I even checked the house on wheels – WE DON’T HAVE ANY WHITE BOXES –
BIG ONES OR LITTLE ONES! Now, I did find some interesting COLD boxes but
they aren’t white. We have the super-cold silver box where Frosty
the Snowman lives – that’s where my steaks are kept until I order
one up for dinner. The cold black box in the kitchen is where my special
chicken and rice stew is kept, right beside my yoghurt, my cottage cheese, my
liver treats, my cheese cubes, my apple slices, my turkey slices, my beef stew …
well, you get the idea. This cold black box also has the magic ice
machine – I can jump up and push the button and it makes ice cubes fall
out all over the floor – Dad really likes it when I do that – yeah,
right! That is where my homemade Frosty Paws are kept too! Then
there is the big brown cold box in the garage – that is where my bottled
water and Perier … Perrier … Fancy Water is kept … at just
the correct temperature for cooling down on a steamy day. Then there is
the black cold box in the house on wheels – it has the same stuff as the
big black cold box in the kitchen. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Now, those of you who know me and my Mom, know that King
Nick did a wonderful job of slave training. I have some of the best
slaves in the whole world – after all, they bought me my very own house
on wheels, a super big van, and they keep my big black cold box filled with all
of my special, home-cooked food. AND – they take me to Dairy Queen
whenever I want – well, almost whenever I want. BUT … they
don’t go out to eat much – I think it is ‘coz my Mom is such
a good cook (you can tell she is ‘coz she’s fluffy from
taste-testing her cooking!). Anyway, Dad likes Mom’s cooking more
than anybody else’s cooking and Mom LOVES to cook – she says it is
therapy. She makes fancy stuff like Couscous, southern stuff like
Tennessee green beans (yummmm), GREAT chicken enchiladas, Filet Mignon on the
grill, Cordon Bleu, German Sauerbraten, German Schnitzel, chicken &
dumplings, homemade chicken noodle soup …. Are you hungry
yet???? Anyway, I don’t get those little white boxes from
restaurants … but I sure do get lots of good food. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>So, I just want to check this out –I think my slaves
are properly trained – and I have my hands full training Opie, so I
really don’t have time to retrain them. But, Cakie –
inquiring minds want to know -- little white restaurant boxes aren’t
required for proper slave training, are they???? Especially if you
have them trained to cook for you and make gourmet meals and treats to your
specifications – right????<o:p></o:p></p>
