Max looks for work


My male person, John saw an add for a TV commercial audition for a pet. I guess he thought I qualified so he printed the info out and brought it home. Alpha Mom, Debi thought it was a great idea. My person brother, David, sign me up and took me downtown today. It was a very long and nervous wait. The location was on Ontario...not in a park, mind you, but in a PEE FREE BUILDING. There were animals in the waiting room, animals in the hall, and in the elevator...etc. The smells were unbelievable, and I wanted to mark my territory ALL THE TIME. David did a good job keeping me entertained and keeping me from doing the nasty inside. He is the comedian of the family. Naturally, I am the adorable one so I don't need to do much but look cute.


I missed going to the store with Debi and Nathan (see picture) today. Every other Sunday Nathan gets to come to the store and pass out candy and laminate things. He also will vaccumn and clean the bathrooms. He is a busy boy. If I get the acting job I would be trading one fun day for another. What if I am discovered? What if they want me on TV. What would our customers do if I wasn't around to lick them, Play with the children, or bark at the Postman Stewart. There are some mighty big decisions I may have to make. Woof Woof to you all Love, Max

Facebook

I am finally getting the gist if Facebook. I don't necessiarly care if someone went to dinner or got a speeding ticket. But I am enjoying that I can track down former friends from grammar school (Bradwell)and High school (South Shore and Bowen friends also. A lot of us were split apart during the turbulent 60's. There was a lot of movement in and out of neighborhoods, and the friends we grew up with were suddenly transplanted to a new neighborhood....or gasp, the suburbs. It has been fun reconnecting, and going down memory lame. I recently found a web page on 1968 class of Bowen. I had a lot of friends IE sorority sisters from there as well as from South Shore. If you didn't grow up in that era and years earlier, you probably do not even know about the Sings at Arie Crown, or the sorority and fraternity parties that the sophisticated south siders were attending. The Tea Hut, Carl's, Bob and Jacks, Cunis Candies, the original White Castle on Essex and Bon Tons on Colfax. What great times and memories. I had my first teenage crush on a teacher from Bradwell, And my friend and I would go to Bon Tons at lunch time just to watch Mr Reece and Mr Starnicki have lunch.. We shopped at Seder's and Bramson's and Joseph Shoes and we thought we were all that...which we were. Bye for now.
