What are we going to eat? We'll eat what every Canadian eats - moose meat, bear, whatever we can hunt down when we leave our igloos. If all else fails there's always bacon, eh! Oh and Tim Hortons coffee.

What kind of dog do you have Leon? I have a yorkie that has turned into a porkie but a cute and faithful little dog.

I too have a Porkie, a Pekingese + Yorkie.

He's gotten a little heavy, trying to get it down, but he's such a good dog.

We have a mutt that I rescued while running with a pack of dogs in east Texas, and was starving when we got her. She is about 40 lbs, brindle in color, and is probably part boxer, part pointer, part a few others.....She sleeps under my arm every night. Then we have a miniature beagle that is not miniature in width. She is like the other doggies mentioned, a bit heavy. She can't get up on the bed so sleeps at the foot of it. Dogs are great. I always said if I had Bill Gates money I would put a stop to the over population in the US.....and not let them be euthanized for no reason except idiot people. Ok, off my soap box. This is the 1st yr of a donation and I think it will really help a local abused-abandoned animal/dog non profit.....

Not sure if I am going to be able to make it to the National this year, but I will donate to the charity either way. I hope others will do the same.

We rescued this Daschund/Terrier mix about 7 years ago after she was abandoned by her owners as a puppy. Her name is Wrigley. She was named after my wife's favorite baseball stadium. We would have named her after my team's stadium, but Great American Ballpark doesn't have the same ring to it.

Leon,

It's a great cause and even though I won't be able to attend the dinner I will contribute.

Both of my boys are rescues.

Great cause Leon, thanks for doing that!

Yes, the best part of the National is the Net 54 Dinner. It has been great to meet fellow board members and put names with faces over the past few years. I'm not the most outgoing guy in the world, so my goal this year is to be a little more cordial and introduce and meet many board members that I haven't met before. Of course, I can't wait to catch up with some of you that I have already met. As Andy said (Hey Andy! Hope things are well!), if I get going on sports movie quotes it helps me to open up a little bit. Thanks to the sponsors and Leon who put on a great, relaxing dinner each year. It is such a fantastic time. Last year I was fascinated to see a painting from a member, ( Sorry, I never got your name), who just received a painting freshly done by Graig Kreindler. I was in awe of it colors and detail. It was like being a foot away from a museum masterpiece.

I'll be there like the Hanson Brothers with my foil on ready to get it on!
