I just discovered #TerrierTuesday. For my first post, I offer the many faces/brows of the Schnauzer.

The King of the schnauzer brow is still my Sprocket, who I miss and think about everyday. He was my soul dog.

Since there’s no theme today I offer this. I’m not a user (or a fan) of AI, but a friend sent me this AI simulation of a color pencil drawing of me & Tosh that shows the innocent side of AI. Here’s the drawing, and the pic it was created from.

He braved it for the necessary, but then wouldn't wait to be towelled and dived straight for a blanket and burrowed underneath it.
Apparently it is remiss of me to neglect turning off the weather for his convenience.

Pitt the Elder, ' Unlimited power is apt to corrupt the minds of those who possess it.'
More to the point than Acton, I think. He sees that it is a process rather than a state of being.
