900 Greyhounds will need to be adopted otherwise they will be euthanized.
Now is a great time to consider adopting a Greyhound. They are very loving and laid back. They don’t need the space people think they need. These greyhounds are great for an active family because they have been crated almost all their lives and they sleep about 18 hours a day. They are just looking for someone to love them and supply them with a warm bed.
They test the dogs to see if they are cat friendly and or small dog friendly. They also know if a dog should be a single dog or if they would be great in a 2, 3, or 4 dog house.
Please help me get the word out; we only have 6 weeks to save these lives.

In case you're thinking this is a hoax.... here's some evidence Dairyland Greyhound Racetrack in Kenosha, Wisconsin will be closing on December 31, 2009.
http://ow.ly/DIux
If you were hedging on whether you want one? Or know of someone that's thinking of needing a companion for one that they already have.... Please send this information to them.
Edit(11/20/09):This just in....
Additional Information.....
(11/19/2009) - DGP Important Closing - Dog Status
Wisconsin State law provides that the greyhounds are to be adopted to new homes, sent to another racetrack for racing purposes or returned to their owners. Our kennel compound will remain open until all greyhounds are properly placed.
We do not know at this current time how many greyhounds in total will become available for adoption until we finish racing on December 31st, 2009.
We do currently have greyhounds available for adoption in our adoption center. You are more than welcome to fill out an application at Dairyland or online at our website www.dairylandgreyhoundpark.com under the adoption tab at the top of the webpage.

| You Are An INFJ |
 You live your life with integrity, originality, vision, and creativity. Independent and stubborn, you rarely stray from your vision - no matter what it is. You are an excellent listener with almost infinite patience. You have complex feelings, and you take great care to express them. In love, you see relationships as an opportunity to connect and grow. You enjoy relationships when they are improving and changing. You can't stand stagnation. At work, you stay motivated and happy... as long as you are working toward a dream you support. You would make a great photographer, alternative medicine guru, or teacher. How you see yourself: Hardworking, ethical, and helpful When other people don't get you, they see you as: Manipulative, weak, and unstable |

Okay, so this isn't really me... well.. on the surface the description is good... but upon checking into the wiki file on INFJ I was able to delve deeper into the knowledge of me... cause you know, I am a Leo and it is ALL about the me... sigh and that lead me to finding this...

The thing is, when we get around to educating our sons about how they need to be responsible, we also need to educate our daughters on what their expectations of people (not only men, as I have many friends that are bi and lesbian) need to be.
And from this day on, I will no longer assume that because I am a smart, funny, intelligent woman... that I know all there is to know about protecting myself and those around me. I vow, to become a better human.

( Scadian meme )
I know in one of our households, and one of our family branches, we do gift exchanges/secret santas (BTW if anyone else does these, I so recommend GiftieGiftie. com awesome website). In order to make it easier on folks, I wanted to list items that people could make for me....I don't want people to spend money on me if they can't afford it, and I love handmade items.....
This got me thinking of what cool things one could make for someone else....and I figured I would turn it into a game.
There are 2- top 10 lists. (Please answer off list)
List 1
If you had to come up with a 10 ten list of items that can be handmade that you would like for SCA use, what would they be? 1 of the gifts have to be made in a kitchen (beer, wine, food, mead, ext), 2 of the gifts have to be made out of fabric (garb, hats, totes, ext), 1 of the gifts have to be made out of leather (drinking vessels, armour, gauntlets, bags), 1 of the gifts have to be made out of fiber (trim, weaving, knit, crochet), 1 of the gifts have to be made out of wood ( camp furniture, plates. chairs, ext) 1 of the gifts have to be made out of pewter or metal (armour, pins, jewelry), 1 of the gifts have to be an entirely period item, 1 of the gifts have to be an item, that someone NOT in the SCA (and not really craft oriented) could make for you, 1 of the items can be anything else you want, not previously listed
If you have links for a particular pattern, chair design, ext that you would want....include that :-)
List 2
Can you come up with a top ten list of things you can make for other people using the guidelines above? If you can't do one of the categories supplement it with another one you can do ( I can't wood work, but I can knit), try to fill in the blanks in at least 5 of the 7 categories(kitchen, fabric, leather, fiber, wood, pewter/metal, period item).
If you want to play, please answer off list to Holiday@broomstich. com ( I set this up, just for these top 10 lists), I will compile all the list and post responses on December 1st.
No matter what Holiday you celebrate (or don't celebrate) I wish everyone a joyous Holiday/Winter Season. (feel free to forward to any other lists you think would like to play)

Your result for The Perception Personality Image Test...
NBPC - The Daydreamer
Nature, Background, Big Picture, and Color
You perceive the world with particular attention to nature. You focus on the hidden treasures of life (the background) and how that fits into the larger picture. You are also particularly drawn towards the colors around you. Because of the value you place on nature, you tend to find comfort in more subdued settings and find energy in solitude. You like to ponder ideas and imagine the many possibilities of your life without worrying about the details or specifics. You are in tune with all that is around you and understand your life as part of a larger whole. You are a down-to-earth person who enjoys going with the flow.

Your result for The Mythological Goddess Test...
Isis
Indeed, you are 75% erudite, 88% sensual, 54% martial, and 33% saturnine.
This Egyptian supreme Goddess is certainly the most influential deity on subsequent cultures. She was the ideal figure of womanhood, usually compared with the Greek Goddess Demeter or her Roman version, Ceres.
Isis was one element of a Holy Trinity, the remaining two figures being her brother and husband Osiris and their heroic son Horus. She was the Goddess of Magic for her brilliance, as well as the Goddess of Love because of her tenacious devotion.
She is often shown with wings, curving to caress coffins and sarcophagi of many a king. In certain papyri she is shown with her falcon wing headdress, covering her ears. One of her sacred symbols is the sistrum, a musical instrument that was believed to ward off evil spirits. Isis' sistrum was carved bearing the image of a cat and was representative of the Moon.
Isis was the High Priestess and an omnipotent magician as well as the only being ever to discover the secret name of Ra. She invariably carries the ankh, the symbol for eternal life. Her name is, by the rules of numerology, adding up to the number 2 and she just so happens to be depicted on the tarot card Key 2 The High Priestess.

all or none of the four variables: Neit.

- Music:Coma Away With Me by Norah Jones
This Valentines Day, I have a date. With a sweet fellow that for all intents and purposes is my boyfriend. He is a "nice guy". Someone that here to for deemed a necessary evil unto the rest of the world, but always avoided by me. He's sweet, in a young and kind way. He has demonstrated immaturity in his words... but wisdom in his actions towards others. If you know me well, you know that I accept people as they present themselves. Respecting the wall of persona as the defense against pain that it is. I don't know if I have the will or strength to see let alone break beyond his pretense of "cool guy". Sigh... we will see.
Also on this V-day, I have a surprise gift upon my desk. A plastic glass with a frosted heart.. filled with Hershey's kisses and a metal rose. I found it on my return from the weekly meeting of the boys at Shufford's BBQ. No note, no symbol or clue as to it's origins or "meaning". The ladies here that have so carefully checked up on me since last years breaking of my heart, claim no knowledge of it's existence... and I love my boys in engineering and quality control... but I just don't picture them being so thoughtful or with such fore thought. sigh I am both touched and peeved. And in the recesses of my heart, I question... why did such simple a thought never cross my husbands mind.
To those that love rest not your heart
give thought to those in languor lie
for when you forget whence love it came
your heart it says good bye

Okay... so this one looked like a good one to get in on...
Mom! And not because she stood me by her to learn... but because I got tired of having the same-o same-o... or, like those that have eaten at her house... spaghetti with a surpise ingredient... beans... YUCK!
All in all, I learned to cook so that I could survive. sigh I have to say though, she does make some killer food sometimes, when she doesn't think she has to include the kitchen sink. lol It also taught me, to IMPROVISE! and to remember that the kitchen sink... should never be used. HA HA HA!
Peace .... like when the kids are at there dad's... HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
