Well, I'll be doggoned!

(see what I did there?)

My only disappointment is that Ralph isn't represented. But he's in our hearts, rest assured.

Me, I take after Phil and Jeff. My cat Duncan often wanders into the kitchen on brew day to wonder what the heck I'm doing, sniff the first runnings, and walk away thinking I'm crazy for going to all this trouble for something he's not interested in.
Obey The Hat!

Ralph is living the good life now. No more being left alone in the house 9 hours 5 days a week while I work. When I retired he semi retired. He only has to guard the house when I run errands or go for bicycle rides.
