The Fitted Shirt

“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!”

"Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water my friend."

dogjournal: HOMELESS PIT BULL JUMPS INTO POLICE CAR AND GETS HELP - “sometimes a dog senses when there are people who can help…It’s a sixth sense.” A police officer was stopped at a red light in Washington D.C.  Suddenly, a Pit Bull jumped in through the window and started licking the officer’s face.  The dog, now named Star, is awaiting adoption at the Washington Humane Society. Read more from washingtonexaminer.com: It was about midnight. D.C. police Sgt. James Black was stopped at a red light at 42nd Street and Benning Road NE, when suddenly a dog leapt through the open window of his unmarked cruiser. The dark-colored female pit bull jumped on his lap — and began licking his face. “I went from being startled to laughing,” said Black, who has spent 15 years on the force. Scott Giacoppo, vice president of the Washington Humane Society, said he’s never heard of a dog jumping into a police car for help. But “sometimes a dog senses when there are people who can help them,” he said. “It’s a sixth sense.” The dog was fortunate to find an officer it could trust, Giacoppo said. Another officer could have panicked and the situation could have ended much differently. Star took a chance by jumping into the car, and now she has a chance at a permanent home. I hope this sweet dog is adopted soon. Click here for the full story.
