Way to go Jock!

Hijackers flee pitbull Jock
This is the type of headlines I love, good news instead of the usual, well worth the read while the link stays up.
As I am completing the reports of last weekends race I am listening to some of the music mentioned on yesterday's blog, Tanya Donnely... a great talent I believe and hope she keeps on making great music. Just a pity she is not that well known here. The Night You Saved My Life - Tanya Donnely - T. Donelly / D. Fisher.
In the beginning my love was fierce
One heart stopped and another started
I flashed my eyes, cracked wise and left them dry
Now I sit with my babe at my breast
I was never this good at my best
Never higher
The moon was paper white the night you saved my life
When my spirit guide left me behind
The wood was closing in, foggy was the night
The night you saved my life
When my spirit guide left me behind
I spy with my third eye
Something volatile and vital
So say goodnight, sleep tight, don't let them bite
Now I stand with the wind at my back
Every day brings a new breed of jackass
I was never good at monkey-in-the-middle
Never a fighter
The moon was paper white the night you saved my life
When my spirit guide left me behind
The wood was closing in, foggy was the night
The night you saved my life
When my spirit guide left me behind
The moon was paper white the night you saved my life
When my spirit guide left me behind.
Ok, the song has little to do with dogs but at least it has the saving life theme to it. Todays quote is exactly opposite to what I wanted but fitting in a obscure way.
"When a dog bites a man, that is not news, because it happens so often. But if a man bites a dog, that is news." John B. Bogart (1848 - 1921)
