My latest purchase arrived with thick, unpeelable hinges on the backs. Soooooo - I put them on the bed of the scanner to take a pic of them to document their condition and when I open the lid a few fly off the back and under my bookshelf. Sooooo I get under the desk with a ruler to try to fish them out and then I hit my head on the desk. Sooooo now I gather them up and toss them in the soaking bin, but I don't have time to soak them now, sooooo I sigh and put away the album that I had been hoping to put them in today.

Stoopid hinges.

NO but while I was under the desk, Ampere thought I was trying to play and kept sticking his cold, wet nose on my arm. Tickled! That's when I hit my head LOL!

re: Stoopid Hinges

Well, Oersted seems like a bit much - although it is better than Newton/Weber. How about Gauss - very Germanic, and it ties straight to Tesla. But that might give Tesla a superiority complex if he thinks he's worth 10,000 times Gauss.

From someone who has no artistry in naming dogs - just ask Chewie, Lara, and Remington

Yeah Oersted is a hoot - can you imagine the looks on people's faces at the dog park when they hear "Oeeerrrrsted! ohhh Oeeerrrsted" ???

Hubby likes the name Maxwell, but everyone has a dog named Max, right?

We did have a Kepler and a Darwin, my first two schnauzer boys. It's funny but for some reason the religion peddlers who came to the door were puzzled by hubby's expression "Sic Darwin on 'em" Laughing

re: Stoopid Hinges

Hold the phone, dollhaus, my last little girl Pembroke Welsh Corgi was named Newton. We named her that because when she was a wee one she would slap her feet when running. So the Newton pound came to mind and she was named. Laughing I know you weren't thinking of an English pound torque wrench, but I see nothing wrong with Newt. After all, when IHOP came out with their breakfast menu, we got to call her "Newtie Tootie Fresh and Fruity". She's now in Newton's Corner in the backyard. And don't forget she's not small, she's minute!

It's all good Rock On

Our dogs are Gilligan and The Skipper 2.
The cats are Ginger and Maryann.

Our Border Collie that passed away a couple of years ago was Mr. Howl.

I call my wife Lovey and I guess that makes me...The Professor!

Now if only I could find where Mr. Howl buried that trunk full of $ before he died!

re: Stoopid Hinges

Well kinda. He had an almost insane hatred for snakes, so there were times when we'd be rolling up the garden hose and he'd attack it before figuring out that it wasn't one. The Skipper 2 hates snakes, but he just circles it and barks until someone comes to check it out. Not Mr. Howl, he was a snake killin' machine and he didn't care what kind of snake it was. As far as I know, he never got bit.

re: Stoopid Hinges

Had a cat once we called "DC". It stood for (as far as our kids were concerned) DARN CAT. It reality, it was a marginally different meaning.

We recently rescued a Beagle/Boxer mix we call Dixie. Sometimes refer to her as
Demon Dog because her eyes are almost completely white but at night, any reflected light makes them glow red.

re: Stoopid Hinges

I had box turtles name Fluffy and Arthur.

We were also a Schnauzer family, with our first one in 1969 acquired in Germany. He was named Kuno, which was a name of a nobleman from a local castle. We mated him several times and took pick of the litter, which we named Jeremy, Max and Barney. My sister since has had two Schnauzers, one at a time... Nicholas and Hubert.

In my married life we had Sandy, an adoption when an elderly neighbor died. Named because he looked just like Sandy in the Annie movie, which was out at the time. Later on we got Teddie, our Cockapoo who died a year and a half ago. Those two gave us 30 years of dogs!
