Well he's much more dignified than the other Humperdinck, that's for sure!!

You know, they probably would take on our personalities. Somewhere I have a picture of Engelbert Humperdink (the puppy) with his paws very properly crosses and the most dignified expression on his face. 🤣
So I was watching an 80's version of Tale of Two Cities, and the nice guy was the person who played Humperdinck in Princess Bride (Humperdinck is the antagonist, btw). So I could NOT take the movie seriously because all I could think of were ROUS's and the Pit of Despair! 🤣🤣
If you've never watched Princess Bride, you totally should!
Just a quick question. I just started to cut up a watermelon and it's all white and green inside! No red or even pink!! YUK! Does anybody know what's wrong with it, oh ye of great minds???Pammy Jo
Puppy names...how about naming them after characters in The Dean's Watch?

Isaac, Adam, Job, Polly, Mary, Elaine, Emma, etc.

It did help. When I cut more of it, there is pink and red towards the middle, but the outer sections are white and green. It tastes ok...the pink/red part. I'm thinking it somehow got cross pollinated. Thanks!
Carry on with more puppies!

Why not Emma? She might be the type who is always showing concern for those around her!
And you'll like Emma in the end, if it's her personality you're thinking of. My description was based on you, by the way.

It's so hard to keep all the people straight in that book! I keep getting her mixed up with Polly. 🙊🤣

I know!!! 😱😱😱 Thank you!
Ooh, 8! I'm trying to think of 6 boy names from The Dean's Watch, but for some reason I can only think of 4! (I know there's at least one more, but I can't think of his name. I'll let you know later!)

And here are the names!!!Curtis, Mary, Sam, Johnny, Taffy, Dean, Peabody, and Taylor. 😅
Oh, well at least you used some from The Dean's Watch! 🤣
Dorothy wrote: "Pictures?"Some? I used three!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣 I will try to put pictures on this afternoon. 😄
Dorothy wrote: "Three is some!"You made it sound like I didn't hardly use any!!! 😤🤣🤣🤣 I even used Peabody!!

You named one Johnny! My beagle, Johnny was the sweetest boy! He went with me when I took a road trip to Wyoming (all the way from PA) and was such a good boy!. I love all of the names, Emma! It's making me long for puppies again!

Yes, thanks to you Pamela!! 😄 I'm glad you approve! 😅 Thank you!
Oh wow! I'd love to go to Wyoming one day!! 😄
Emma wrote: "Dorothy wrote: "Three is some!"You made it sound like I didn't hardly use any!!! 😤🤣🤣🤣 I even used Peabody!!"
I just thought you should have named them all after the characters in The Dean's Watch!

Yeah I would have, but we've already had a Bella and Polly, and my family wasn't too keen on Adam and Job. It was all I could do for them to accept Peabody!!! 😭😭
Emma wrote: "Oh wow! I'd love to go to Wyoming one day!! 😄"It was a looooong trip. 4 days by car to get there and 4 days to get home. On the way home, when I crossed from Ohio back into Pennsylvania, I felt like stopping the car, kneeling down, and kissing the ground!! It was a nice trip and the Rockies are beautiful, but I was so tired of driving! I realized I am an East Coast Gal after that trip! Now I'm quite content to stay East of the Susquehanna River (which is only in central PA! ) LOL!
