Monitor Top Glass Water Bottle Accessory $28

When I was a kid, we got a puppy barely more than a week after JFK was assassinated. My uncle had visited for Thanksgiving and gave my sister and me the money. She was a beautiful German short-haired pointer and we named her Jackie.

Well, as kids we were absentee when it came to care and feeding, and Mom got fed up. Of course, both of my parents were correct in stating that the dog was having a miserable life, and that she would be better off on a ranch where she could run and be of use, as she could indeed stop, point and retrieve.

One weekend my dad went pheasant hunting at a friend's almond ranch and had pre-arranged to leave Jackie behind with someone up there. My sister and I accepted this as the best thing for her.

I really missed Jackie and at the time, "I'll Never Find Another You" was a top 40 hit record, and it couldn't have captured my sentiments better. I still can't hear that song without thinking of Jackie, but yeah, after two more tries over a ten year period with German short-hairs, one of which chewed a giant hole in the new sofa sleeper, I gave up on that breed.

Checkrate/Likes *Wow! Very Nice* I have been looking for one of these for a while. I found one that was over priced. This one is priced just right! Somebody with a monitor top needs to get this little gem.

Checkrate/Likes 1 *Its amazing how music brings back memories* Goatfarmer, I enjoyed that. Thank you for sharing it with me. Very peaceful and enjoyable music. Rp2813, I'm sorry to hear that you had to let that dog go. Sometimes you have to do what is best for the pet though. I know that I've been a bad caretaker for pets when I was a kid. At least it got to roam free on a big ranch, any dog would love that.

Checkrate/Likes 1 Good old Seekers - always liked that song and have often summoned it for a tune to whistle. Very catchy.
