Where'd Gina Go?

Due to a computer that wants to make life extremely complicated for her, Gina will be out until goodness knows when she can find someone to fix it.

I am still visiting. Everytime i get a chocolate craving i think, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmI wonder if gina's up and running. Sadly, no. I may just have to break down and speak to my sister in law in Loma Linda. She used to bring me See's candies.
Nah..........I/ll wait.

So here's the scoop. By Sunday, if you are not back we are all allowed to post Pointless Point trivia Questions under this comment section. We will randomly assign points and declare winners Gina will buy the candy.
Sound good folks?

Hey Hope! That's a great idea!

Welcome to “The All Day Guest Host Addition of:
Pointless Points Trivia”, where the points DO matter to those of us who love See’s truffles.
As you might have noted, we are doing a little friendly take over of Gina’s comment‘section.
Cause, well, we are missing her and chompin on the bit to win them candies.

So here’s my question to start the day:
Which breed of dog, used heavily in both World Wars because of their strength and loyalty, were severely depleted, and close to extinction?
Hint: I got me one.
The Points…….don’t worry folks, Gina will sort it all out when she gets back!
6:09 AM
Liz said…
Ooooh, I think I know! A Chart Polski?

We used to have a greyhound and they look similar.
12:23 PM
Hope said…
perhaps, but not what I was looking for. The points decrease with each hint.

These large dogs originated in Begium.

So where's YOUR Guest Host Question??
1:26 PM
Liz said…
Okay. Is it the Bouvier des Flandres?

Here's my question:

What famous slogan was originally devised by Patrick O'Keefe for the Society of American Florists?
2:37 PM
Hope said…
" Say it with flowers"
How apt.
3:12 PM
Liz said…
Ding ding ding! Correct!

Was I right about the Bouvier? I think you and I are the only ones playing! Gotta keep the skills sharp!
3:24 PM
Hope said…
sorry, yes you were right about the bouvier. Best darn dog I've ever had.
yeah, well perhaps when gina gets back she'll recoginize that we miss her and reward us accordingly.

Onward

The end of the school year, finally! Did I tell you that my son went to public school this past year? Did I tell you that my daughter was in a regular Kinder classroom this year? Although it was nice to have them both in school, there were definitely things I was not so hip on, such as having to wake up at 5:20 every morning just to get everyone out the door on time.  And then after all the driving and dropping off, going to work. Such fun! I had forgotten the dreariness of having to complete mounds and mounds of homework (even though new research has shown that homework, especially for Kinder, is for shit).  Of constant deadlines and fundraisers and things I am supposed to volunteer for. My daughter had a good year, but was definitely not without its bumps. Her teacher, an older, highly experienced, practical woman with a Master's in Education, kept referring to my daughter as an "inclusion student."  It wasn't her name or just "student" but was...

D-A-N-G

As with all young children, for a very long time we parents rely on the old "spell the word out" trick for talking about things in front of them that we don't want them to know. Well, our time seems just about up. Hubba-hubba was trying to tell me about an upcoming event in which Santa would be making an appearance. As Mr. P is very much into Christmas this year, we knew that any mention of Santa would bring a long soliliquoy about how Santa is magic and how he makes the toys and how he has a list and on and on and on. And at that moment, we just didn't feel like hearing it. Don't judge people, don't judge. So, Hubba-hubba spelled out "S-A-N-T-A." "Hey, what did you just say?" said the five year old. "Nothing" lied replied his father. "I know what you said, Daddy! You said Santa!" Anybody know a place that sells semaphore flags?

Blown Away

That is a fitting name for this post, as the winds outside our house right now are blowing at speeds that have been clocked at 85 mph, which is technically hurricane-force. The wind truly sounds like a freight train. I have never experienced such a ferocious wind storm, and we get them every year around this time. Oy. If you've checked the news, you've heard about the Malibu fire, but seriously, when doesn't Malibu burn? Every frickin year they have a fire, it just goes with the territory of being remote and having heavy brush, combined with no irrigation and a canyon. It's just a volatile mix. Meanwhile, in the very canyon in which my house is located (the Fremont Canyon) we are in the thick of those winds clocked at hurricane speed, and it is just crazy, people. There are trees being uprooted everywhere, as well as something that just hit my roof. I'm not kidding. We have seen at least two transformers blow out, kind of pretty, actually that huge blue glow ...
