Quick Hits

The Beckhams have arrived in America.....I was reading this week that Posh Spice has promised that she will smile more so that Americans can see that she is more than just a woman with a constant frown....by the way, what was up with those provocative photos of Becks and Posh in W magazine?....

The New York Yankees have taken the first steps to give a contract extension to Alex Rodriguez....however, A-Rod’s agent Scott Boras is talking that Rodriguez has the chance to make $30 million a season.....WHAT!?!.....I like A-Rod and he is a helluva player, but he alone cannot carry a team to a World Series title which is being proven this year....I would like the Yankees to re-sign him, but there is no way I would pay him $30 million a year....nope!.....

Finally, I would like to acknowledge a good friend of mine down in North Carolina.....he sent me an email this morning that his dog Sanders died overnight.....some people may laugh and think it is crazy that some people get upset when their dog dies....their comment is always, “it’s just a dog”.....those are the people who don’t get it.....I know Sanders meant a lot to my friend and his family....in fact Sanders was the one responsible for him meeting his wife....I have lost three dogs during my life and I will say, it is not easy.....so I understand the sadness my friend is going through....Sanders was more than just a pet - he was a friend - he was family.....the photo is of Sanders and my friend’s son....

Stiles, completely agree, I was dogsitting my friend's dog the last two months and he left last night. It was incredibly sad.

Anyone who says, "It's just a dog," is an ass. I've never cried harder than the day I took my golden retriever in to the animal hospital to be put down. Hardest thing I've ever had to do.
