Want A Puppy?

My friend Lindsay knows someone who found some black labs and is giving them away.




Friend of a friend says,

A friend of mine rescued 6 black lab (mix) puppies out of the middle of the road on Saturday. They have been bathed, sprayed for fleas and wormed. They are currently in a kennel at my friend's home. He has contacted countless rescue groups only to be turned down due to no room.

Email me if you want to get in touch.

UPDATE: It's a an extremely old chain email from September 2007! They've been adopted.

Bike The Dog


Ok, so I'm going to do this bike ride.
17.8 miles, 9 Hot Dogs

BIKE THE DOG

BIKE THE DOG IS CHICAGO'S PREMEIR GASTRONOMIC CYCLING CHALLENGE. IT IS NOT A RACE. THE POINT IS MERELY TO COMPLETE THE CIRCUIT AT A CASUAL, LEISURELY PACE AND HAVE FUN. IT IS 100% FREE FOR ANYONE TO JOIN. HOWEVER WE ARE RAISING MONEY FOR THE FAMILY OF STELLA ACKERMAN. SHE IS 2 1/2 YEARS OLD AND LIVING WITH A RARE BLOOD DISORDER. DOWNLOAD A PLEDGE FORM HERE AND ASK FRIENDS AND FAMILY TO SPONSOR YOU AS YOU EAT YOUR WAY AROUND TOWN. ALSO PASS THE WORD ALONG TO ANYONE YOU KNOW WHO LOVES TO SAVOR THE FLAVOR OF THIS ICONIC AMERICAN DELICACY.



September 13 at 10 am. Who wants in? I guess I should solicit sponsors since it's a charity ride. I don't think I could eat more than 5 hot dogs in a day. I wouldn't want to, at least.

Here's all the info.
