I love the “smiling” pages and the tips on every issue. I am a dog lover and have saved all of my dogs from either death row or from people who were going to put them down.

I can remember all the pain youve caused me.Do you remember the night when you almost took my fathers life? I do. He loves you. Sometimes I think he loves you more than he loves me. Hes addicted to you, to the way you promise to rid him of his problems only to cause more of them. You just sat back and laughed as his car went turning through the street, crashing into two other cars. He wasnt the only one badly hurt by you that night.Do you remember the night of my first high school party? My friends were intrigued by you. They treated you as if they were never going to see you again, drinking all of you that they could.
