<DIV>Cathy B said</DIV>
<DIV>I have shed tears and almost wet my pants with laughter, reading the
adventures of the bassets on the Drool</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Well I had to get a bladder tape and lift so I would not
pee my pants reading the drool</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I think I joined the drool in 1999 just before or after we
got Sir Opa brain in fog mode so I may remember later today </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Opa was our first basset and I swear the lil bugger hooked
us</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>we called him Slim, slim chance he would miss a
crumb</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Sir Grump allot when he would grump at us because he would
be sound asleep and we would say Opa we are going to bed lets go
pee</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>He got what he wanted when he wanted his paws his tools,
walk around sooooo slow </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>but he could have the pepperoni out of the grocery bag and
hidden unless then </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>2.5 seconds leaving one to believe they never made the
purchase</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>He would slip out the odd time, we would run all around
the neighborhood </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>crying for him and he would be merely sitting on the curb
waiting for us</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Master at flat basset in the street when cars were coming
and he could embarrass us.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Oh I how cry and laugh when I think of him.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I swear the lil guy was human and he was the king we his
slaves we called him </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Sir because he demanded his loyal followers to do all that
he wished</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>He died at age 7 a cancerous tumor on the base of his
brain.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>The house fell silent, the fridge was safe, the cupboards
remained closed and most of all the</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial> wooden spoons stayed in the drawer because I taught
him to howl / sing when I took one out it was his microphone</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Crazy Daisy we try to get her do those things but she is
her own girl, and does things her way</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Rex he is a busy boy but settling down now at
2</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Max A Million was a quiet soul that never bothered a soul
only to tell on Sir Opa</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>The drool has helped me lay to rest 3 doggies Max, Opa and
Princess and 2 bunnies, </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>the continued love and support over the years I could not
do without</FONT></DIV>
