With your luck with computers, BWL, I think you'll just jinx us for Oct. 19. But we shall see.

One day and counting until the new pooch arrives. My kids and I talked about names, and we even mouthed "Gluon" a few times, but it just won't fit, because for the next dozen years or more I'd be explaining an inside joke for an odd name. Since the first dog is named Cinnamon, perhaps we'll name this merle heeler mix "Pepper" and I'll have my own Spice Girls. :)

Gluon can still come and play.
