"Ever notice how these dogs take on the looks of thier masters. hmmmmmm"

Wrong Leo!  My dog has alway been much purtier then me too.  ;D   Right now I look more like Bill's dog.  In anticipation of my radiation and chemo that will be starting next week I went to the barber Thursday afternoon and got a prophylactic buzz cut.

I've noticed that bill's dog and mine would look like twins if they were both shaved.   ;D  Mine is a Pekingese, I forget what breed Bill's is.   

I'll wager that although my dog isn't much of a pilot he can destroy airplanes faster than Bill's dog too.   LL~

Hey Tom;

  Mine is a "PUG DOG" you know, the one that looks like its face got flattened when it caught the car it was chasing.

  You cannot drop a part on the floor when she is around, I've never seen a puppy this fast.  LL~ Her name is "MOLLY" and she is 14 weeks old now.

  Sorry to hear of your problem my friend, keep the faith, and keep your chin up. Good luck with the therapy.

Tom
Sorry to hear anyone having your type of problem.

I can only hope you have as good a recovery as I have had.  I was operated on for Cancer in February of 1958 and have had zero recurrences since.  Yes, 50 years next February.

Thanks for the good wishes.  I've been poked prodded and scanned and so far as the docs can tell it hasn't spread so there is a good chance for recovery.  If my plumbing can remain as is that would be a plus.   ;D

Now at least I know why I have been feeling so bad for so long.  My outlook remains positive.

I have heard the PUG was a Polish breed..they got the flat nose from chasing parked cars LL~ LL~...that little sucker sure is cute, tho. And Tom, that little laugh was for you..a friend was diagnosed with  not much hope and he was laid up for a while...had his wife rent a ton old LAUREL and HARDY, W.C. FIELDS, 3 STOOGES, etc....guess what: he laughed his way into perfect health....true story....keep grinning, Bob

I had a dog when I was just a Little boy. We lived next to airbase in a trailer park and people were always abandoning pets there. one day they droped off my dog and he was adopted by me. I realy liked that dog. When I came home from school he would come runnuing and jump into my arms. I have always loved animals of all kinds. Especially Birds of prey. They look a little like my wife.
I am sorry about your situation with the cancer. Will try to cheer you up from time to time with bad jokes and such. My prayers that you get well soon and if the jokes make you worse let me know. Just remember us modelers are tough. By the way my barber has a garage sale every once in a while and he asked if I would buy some of his stuff and I told him I let you cut my hair Tuesday so I don't have any money. He's over 80 years old and old style barber that can tell jokes for hours. I always stop and see him when I go by. He also grows great Tomatoes.
