Martin Clan
We are a group of cousins (firsts, seconds, thirds, fourths...) who at our great-grandmothers funeral decided to stay in touch despite the hurdles of distance and lifes business! Through the example of our Great Grandparents, Grandparents and Parents we have learned the importance of family. So may the lines and (typed) keys of communication remain busy! I love you guys!!!

I had just gotten back from delivering papers, and I decided to do a little tinkering on the eighty-eight keys. I knew from the moment I entered the house that all was not well with the dog. Without any questioning or notes from my mom, I knew she(my mom) had gone to the pool for adult swim. The dog was forlorn as ever, with mom's absence. As I approached the piano, I heard a very good attempt at a menacing growl coming from the little white ball of fluff under the piano. Usually it is no problem for me to practice the piano while my mom is not in the house. Well times have changed. I sat down and as my foot approached the sustain pedal on the piano, the dog barked at my foot several times, and then he jumped on my lap and started growling at my hands, which were on the keys. I laughed out loud and then repromanded the dog, he was then very remorseful and jumped off my lap and sulked to over to the couch. The only thing I can think would've triggered such a reaction from the dog, is my mom's shoes were by the pedals. The other reason is that she has been practicing a lot lately and I guess He just felt the need to protect his mother's piano, I don't realy know the reason, that is just my guess. I thought it was funny though and decided to post.

It is correct spelling time again. Change the "y" to "r" on major as it may make more sense but joy isn't all that bad in this situation.
The Outsider who will type correctly some day.
That devilish glow in the dogs eyes (see picture 2) must have been rather scary James. Better look up the closest exorcist in the yellow pages.
I love it! I can just see this whole story taking place as we all know how that dog can be sometimes (especialy when Aunt Char is not there) thanks for keeping us tuned in on that whacky dog of yours!!!
And I will never see that nutty dog act like that, because when I'm with him, of course, he is SO normal and lovable and perfect! Oh well, except when he throws up from nerves and I want to throw him out the window over the bridge in central PA! Aunt Char
As soon as I wrote the story, I thought of how Max would've responded. You know we have the same birthday? When I was at the Nelsons' that dear dog followed me everywhere. One day after working with Uncle Bob, I took a shower, while in the shower I hear some whining, and some scratching on the glass door to the showe. and ther was Max, faithfully waiting for me to get finished with my cleaning. I think if the door weren't there he would've been right there in the tub w/ me. What a contrast to this weirdo dog here at my house. ohh and by the way, I didn't even notice the wrong letter, till CR pointed it out to me, thankfully she said what the misspelled word was so I wasn't left pondering away through dinner.
Yes! These spelling corrections must come to an end- look what I started when I tried to fix my mis-used word eversion/diversion in the Philadelphia sky-line post! I just didn't want my phonetically challanged ways to become known- however- upon seeing everyone else struggle- I've become less... EMBARRESSED about such matters! Unless a grammatical and/or mispelling makes a comment un-understandable...I vote to end the quick (touch-ups) Everyone who agrees signify by typing I-I!!:-)
Unto other matters...
Oh James- what deception you are under concerning our most beloved Max (AKA Monster). I now go to post a picture of this supposed normal dog!
haha!!! Im glad youre here to straighten everyone out, Rebeast, about our abnormal dog!
-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
but that wasnt the reason for my comment, my reason was to signify for the "i" (reffering back to the Rebeast's comment)
Ok well, this realy has nothing to do with Sabre or Max. I just thought people were most likely to frequent the newer posts. I wanted to tell everyone that I just finished making some Cookies for Martin camp. I made a big batch of Chocoalte Chip, but instead of doing them all chocolate chip, I did one part of the dough white chocolate nut, then I did some reeses' cookies w/ peanut butter chips and milk chocolate chips, and then last but of course not least I did classic Semi-sweet chocolate chip. So I thought I would get the Martin tasters a waterin away. I can't wait till Martin Camp Woohoo!!!!

Thanks a lot James- it's 9:08 here at the Met-Pro desk and I didn't have time for breakfast -- so these taste-buds of mine are screaming in torture over your last comment. But not to worry- good ol Met-Pro is coming through for me again! One of the girls went off to Manhatten Bagel to get us some delicious treats!! (Although I think I'd prefer one of your baked morsals instead:-)!
Ok, yet again this has nothing to do with our furry friends, but I thought I would say that while I was makin the cookies, I got so mad at Mergles for coming and snitching from the dough. When I was through repromanding her, I had to pause and chuckle, I realized that the pot was calling the kettle black. You should know what I mean Eve. I don't know why, but Mell and I both have had our little outbursts at Merd while baking, I don't know why, but I guess it is just a stressful time for us.
Maybe you could share your little outburst story w/ us Mell.
ahh mel, I asked you to share your little outburst story with us, not vote. Ok peops, if you want to know. When we were baking christmas cookies, Melanie had quite a little outburst at poor helpless little Mergs. I think that no matter how bad my little lashings are towards Merg, they're not as bad as Mel's. At least Mel laughed as soon as she sevearly repromanded her sister
