Bo tells me he is very proud indeed of all the vigilance across the nation regarding new threats to bassetdom from land and air and sea (well, not sea today as reported on the Drool, but since Bo can't swim, he sees anything near the sea as a threat; something about which he is slightly embarrassed, being Commander of the Pacific Basset Feet and all and living on an island).</DIV>

<DIV>There are some exciting new developments in the Pacific Basset Feet. We have added a "Press Release" section to the Communications part of the website. There are pictures of new hound and houndette enlistees. And Bo's slave, her brother, and Muldoon's dad are working on some new sections. One is an organizational chart outlining chain of command. You will be able to click on a category (e.g., "Admirals" or "NCIS" and find a list of all the hounds in this unit). Our hope is that this will help enlistees wanting to set up fundraising projects featuring particular units (e.g., a poster of Rocky the Flying Squirrel hoisted on his own petard by the ASTT?) And Muldoon is still working on a ship's registry. Good Ship Lollipup, PBR, and Icebreaker Lost Wages, contact Muldoon (<A href="mailto:divlog@msn.com">divlog@msn.com</A>) to pick out a picture of your ship. Montana Basset Rescue is working up a fundraiser idea. And my brother tells me that posters can
be made for about $7 apiece at WalMart's, a much lower figure than we had found before. I like the idea of laminated placemats featuring different units and/or different ships and their crew (complete with basset pictures). So PBF members--be sure to send in your photos of yourself (in uniform or out); ships be in touch with Muldoon. I think we can help out Montana Basset Rescue and some others too--goodness knows, so many are in need right now. Semper fido, everyone. Val, Bo, CICPBF, and Lt. Harley (hey, houndettes, I'm very handsome. Just don't tell Ruby the chihuahua you're writing me).</DIV>
