Baywatch Reboot (Starring Dogs) Cafe

autumnroadhudsonvalley.jpg
I think this is the Hudson Valley


Chatty rescue dog is almost at the Scooby Doo level of "speaking."

An argumentative seal. Blessed are the peacemakers.

A bird of burden.

Poor dog is pounced and seized.

Horse escaping his stall with a barrel-roll.

I've got to tickle the baby platypus, if I can be frank.

A bunny suffers from low self-esteem.

Dog halps.

Panda agility demonstration.

A panda calculates the exact trajectory for a lethal pouncing attack and then executes at the highest level.

Panda snuggling operations are up 20%.

Panda GAINZZZ.

A panda offers itself for mating in just the most incompetent way possible.


I don't approve of teasing the monkey but it's kind of funny.

224 I distinctly remember Rush's final show before Christmas break. I believe it was 1997. He talked about the passing of his Dad and of how he was on a late-night flight near Christmastime and Silent Night (Mannheim Steamroller) was queued on his device. It made him feel closer to his pop again. He closed the show with that and it got real dusty for me.

286 Bulg, one of the few good things left about PBS is they show "Christmas with the Tabernacle Choir." I've been blessed to see it a few times in person. Definitely worth a watch!

The 2024 Christmas with The Tabernacle Choir special will air on PBS on:
December 17: At 8 PM EST/7 PM CST
December 24: At 9:30 PM

A celebration of the season with Christmas classics and French carols, plus a story about Victor Hugo and his wife hosting a Christmas feast for impoverished children.

Bought the frozen turkey breast (3 lbs.) this morning and put it in the fridge. Then, about five hours later, I realized I didn't want to thaw it out so early, so I put it in the freezer.

They say you can re-freeze a thawed turkey, but I can't find anything on a barely begun to thaw one.
