The Descendents, "Ride the Wild"

It's been awhile since I posted any music, hasn't it? This is my favorite song by The Descendents....

Triggered

Saw an altercation this morning between "Trigger" the pit bull and somebody else's smaller dog. Two pet owners -- one fat woman with her little dog, and a sleekly-built co-ed from DePaul with Trigger. I only saw it right as it happened, heard the little dog yelp and saw its owner throw herself on the dog (first I thought she fell over and worried about the dog being squished, but I realized that the woman had done the proverbial "fall on the grenade" move to protect her dog from the pit bull). As I walked by, the co-ed was scolding Trigger for snapping at the much-tinier dog -- of course, with a name like "Trigger" (equine pop cultural associations aside), the pit bull's likely in a bad position as an ambassador of peace and love. I walked out of range before I could hear how the owners resolved things -- the fat woman was just dusting herself off while the younger woman was just admonishing her dog.

Sunny and cold today, but beautiful sunlight.

Found $.50 this morning. I'm RICH!
