Two days ago a couple came to attend a family do. And stayed back as they had some important business to attend to. That was ok. What was not ok was the woman complaining that the guest bath was not spic n span. I would'nt have minded at all if she'd say it to me, but she bitched to the in-law and all hell broke loose. Of course, the faithful husband who had to empathise said it was all my fault - not maintaining the house - well I told him to do it then.

Since then i hv been giving them both the treatment. Its not easy working 6 days a week and also having lousy pests once in a while.
This time, they'd better watchout for trouble - aha. They don't know wat's in store for them.

LONDON: Intelligence is not just down to good breeding, at least for the man's best friend.

Researchers at the Aberdeen University in the United Kingdom have carried out a study and found that mongrels are cleverer than their pedigree chums.

In fact, according to the researchers, crossbred dogs have better spatial awareness and problem-solving abilities than pedigrees, and are better suited for work as police dogs and as guides for the blind.

"Being a purebred does not improve the intelligence. The risk of medical problems among crossbreeds is also significantly lower.

"Crossbreeding a German shepherd with a rottweiler, for instance, would produce as good a police dog as a purebred German shepherd," lead researcher Dr David Smith was quoted by The Daily Telegraph as saying.

The researchers came to the conclusion after they put 100 canines through seven separate tests in the programme, marking them out of 30.

A collie-spaniel cross called Jet was found to be the brightest dog, scoring maximum points, while seven out of the top 10 performing dogs were crossbreeds.

"Pure bred dogs are used as police dogs and they can sometimes have problems such as joint problems. If you can use crossbred dogs then may be that's a better choice of dog," Dr Smith was quoted as saying.

Matthew Bottomley, the breeding manager of the Guide Dogs for the Blind Association, agreed. "That's interesting because we are finding that, statistically, crossbreeds make better guide dogs."

They have what we don't,in great measure.Time. Don't you wish you'd be rather born a pet?

well,I got it at last. Roughly translated, it means 'standard'. It was fairly simple.

Hi! Came back after a real long time. I've been trying to come up with a new name for a company. Some friends are setting up one. Thought I'd do it real quick. But looks like all the good ones are already taken. So I tried ancient sanskrit ones. Tough luck. Hope I can come up with a real good one soon.
