lost and stray dogs

Late night of May 11 2005, there was a stray dog that was woundering the street in front the place where I'm currently staying at and this pictular dog was woundering the area for the last few days and last night this young small dog, must be a few yrs old, and didn't look well either. Anyways, what really bugs me so much is that dog owners let their dogs roam the streets or forgets that they left their dogs outside. Back to what I was saying, this dog what looked like a terrior (sp?), has a white coat with a big brown spot on his ear and around his right eye, and with a blueish color with no tag. So, this dog started to hang around my home and finaly called up the Animal Shelter to see if there was a report of a missing dog matching this description but nothing close. Anyways, before I left to take this youngish dog to the shelter I started to feel really guiltly for taking this dog down to the shelter and even more so after leaving the shelter because this dog didn't even want to stay. But even now I still feel guilty and really bad, sort of, for the owners of this dog by not knowing where their dog is, and what might happen to this dog if he doesn't get a new home or return to his old home. It just makes sick that in some cases that people don't really care for their dog's or other pets that they might have. They would just have pets for just because, which is no good reason at all. maybe more to come... laters peter

An interestin picture

I found this post about an Embassy Theatre in Wellinnton. A nice looking theatre wish we had that type of theatre's here in the U.S. - well at least more of them.

Glad school is almost out...

Well, I have one class to go to then I would be free from school for at least 2 weeks - maybe - still don't know if I would be taking a class this summer for 6 weeks. Anyways, had the last class on Monday night which was fun but quiet to say the least. Now the problem is working out my schedule for the fall term. I can't decide if I want to take 3 classes or not. I might just 2 classes that I need to get out of the way this fall, think I'll be talking to someone about class schedule for the fall. Here I am babbling like a rabbit again. Seems at this point while taking classes, school just seems to take forever to finish. Plus, there is way too much bullshit that's happening in my life right now, including people giving me weird looks and giving me the bird for no apparent reason that I know of, no matter where I'm driving or walking to or from like I'm a fucking idiot or someone who's downright insane who shouldn't even be walking around. I'll just be glad when major changes in my life come to pass and hopefully leave Fairbanks, maybe after I get my degrees or sooner. Frankly, for some reason, I'm waiting for one or both provable (correct word ?) shoes to drop this summer. Now, I'm curious what's really going to happen this summer and the rest of the year, just have to see as it happens. Anyways, I just have a feeling that something going to happen this summer, and it would be more than likely that it would something bad - not to bad that is. But, I could be wrong in this case. laters Peter

Stuff and other bs...

I've found interesting stories and such thro the various news feeds that I've gathered since starting use of bloglines.com. There were many article's that I've found to interesting enough to comment on or link to, but after a bit of time it (article's) just seems to be no longer held any interest for me to comment on. There are or were articles that are, in a way, related to class but by the time I would get around to post a like and make a comment on any specific article, like wiki's, blogs, and broadband articles where I just don't feel like to do anything about posting something to this blog or to my other blog, or even to this blog, but the latter blog is specifically for sports though. Anyways, I'm babbling like a rabbit again and I have a long day ahead of me too. Maybe more stuff to come... laters peter
