Vet

I gotta say I have the best Vet for Logan in the entire world...he is so nice and caring and when Logan was sick he took such good care of him, I felt bad crying infront of him everytime I came to visit Logan. But when he was all better I baked his entire offie a batch of cookies and gave him a big hug. :)

He's been featured in numerous magazines and newspapers on his work. Check him out. Dr. Kaplan rocks!

Here is one of his rescue dogs Toby:



Toby is a 7 year-old male, mixed-breed dog. He was adopted by Dr. Kaplan from New York's largest animal shelter, Animal Care and Control on 110th street in October of 2001. He loves to fetch, swim, eat and sleep. He can usually be found at City Veterinary Care lounging on the waiting room couches or sleeping under the front desk. His favorite toys are those that squeak. He doesn't plan to have a family of his own one day, because he is neutered. This doesn't sadden him because he knows that this City is confronted with a massive pet overpopulation problem that claims 45,000 lives in the boroughs' shelter system each year. He feels lucky to have gotten out of the shelter alive and he inspired his dad to start The Toby Project.

Book rental

This isnt for me, because I like to keep my books but this website is like netflix but for books, you can rent books (for a monthly fee) and they ship to you and once you are done you can ship them back, you can also purchase the book if you like.

Rescue Me



Another great reason why our president and family is the best well they announced that they are getting a dog but not just a regular old dog but a RESCUE Portuguese-Water-Dog.

As for names this is what Michelle had to say:

"Oh, the names are really bad. I don't even want to mention it, because there are names floating around and they're bad," Mrs. Obama says with a laugh. "You listen and you go – like, I think, Frank was one of them. Frank! Moose was another one of them. Moose. I said, well, what if the dog isn't a moose? Moose. I'm like, no, come on, let's work with the names a little bit."

Computer Gender


SPANISH Teacher was explaining to her class that in Spanish, unlike English, nouns are designated as either masculine or feminine.
'House' for instance, is feminine: 'la casa.'
'Pencil,' however, is masculine: 'el lapiz.'

A student asked, 'What gender is 'computer'?'

Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two groups, male and female, and asked them to decide for themselves whether 'computer' should be a masculine or a feminine noun. Each group was asked to give four reasons for its recommendation.

The men's group decided that 'computer' should definitely be of the feminine gender ('la computadora'), because:

1 No one but their creator understands their internal logic;

2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else;

3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for
possible later retrieval; and

4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself
spending half your paycheck on accessories for it.

The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be

Masculine ('el computador'), because:

1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on;

2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves;

3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they ARE the problem; and

4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a little longer, you could have gotten a better model.

The women won.
