February 2008:
Welcome to February, whose days are best known individually for
Valentines, Groundhogs, and occasional Leaping, and collectively for
Black History, Suicide Prevention, and - did you know? - Responsible Dog
Owners. Not to be outdone by the Hallmark emotional blackmail machine,

as special months to spread the word about having, getting, and keeping
the stuff required to be recognized by friends, family, and community as
a Responsible Dog Owner. Parties and parades were organized, clowns and
face-painters were hired, posters were hung, and speeches were spoken.

knew - that Americans can't focus on anything for very long without
regular infusions of adrenalin or alcohol, certainly not for an entire
month, and never for two months in one calendar year. So now it's just a
quiet sort of event, just an extra hyperlink or two on various and
sundry web sites, now including this one. If you're still reading this,
I'm preaching to the choir, but nonetheless will provide said hyperlink.

Be a responsible dog owner ] Yippee-ki-yay, February! -- Bev
