Roll that beautiful bean footage

Yes. You’ve all seen this before.

I am having a week bit of writer’s block today.

I haven’t had that in a long time.

There are times in which I have lost my mojo.

Like this week.

But even with my mojo-deficiency, I’ve still had ideas.

Not this morning!

    Them go outside and soak up some nature til your mojo comes back. I diagnose a vitamin D deficiency.

      I second that ! Do like I do, get outside and train (or at least play with your dog !).


      • on May 8, 2010 at 9:01 am | retrieverman

        Good idea.

    Writer’s BLOCK???? Retrieverman, you never have writer’s block! what you have is an occaisional, miniscule writer’s blip, which most of us readers would never even notice except you keep calling attention to it!


    • on May 8, 2010 at 9:12 am | retrieverman

      LOL.

      Believe it or not, the only way for me to get rid of writer’s block is to write about it.

      I didn’t blog for a week around Christmas because I got tired of all the negative feedback I was receiving. I thought it was the end.

      I was wrong.

      Maybe what I’m calling a block is an interruption in the flow– like a stream running up against a boulder. Eventually, it will break free.

      See, it’s getting better already.

      Thanks to the nice comments and Barbie Girl.

      You were right.

      I got enough good posts today, including one humorous story.

      Just needed to get fired up.

    In my opinion, the civic and business leaders of Huntington behaved shamelessly on that ABC show about eating in the fattest city in America. They cared more about looking dumb than helping their kids.

    Or…

    Coal mining in America is safer than it’s ever been, and much, much safer than anywhere in the world, so cut Massey some slack.

    Or…

    Goldens need more bone. It keeps them warmer in the water, and that’s how they are supposed to look.


    • on May 8, 2010 at 10:18 am | retrieverman

      Goldens need some bone, but not tons of it.

      If retrievers had to have tons and tons of bone, then I don’t know why most of the best field-line Labs aren’t built that way.

    That’s like asking why race cars aren’t a good choice for a road trip. Pull that clip of the gamekeepers shoot in Scotland. Those are some thick dogs.


    • on May 8, 2010 at 10:29 am | retrieverman

      But not as thick as the show dogs at all.

      And the goldens aren’t thick at all.


  5. on May 8, 2010 at 10:31 am | Bill

    Actually, you’re right. Those dogs look pretty great, after a second look.
