Wagging the Dog

By | July 24, 2006, 4:40pm PDT

Just wrapped the special Monday recording of the Gillmor Gang, with Mike Arrington, Dan Farber, Dana Gardner, Mike Vizard, Jason Calaconis, and guest Nick Carr. Doc Searls was onroute or teaching at OSCON and couldn’t make it. I should have Part I on the network by tomorrow morning, and on Sirius starting Wednesday.

Last night our dog Murphy died. I can hear him in the silence.

As we drove away from the emergency clinic, Tina wondered if we ever could catch a break. Today I’m thinking we caught a thirteen year one with our puppy.

  • It is always hard
    No matter how many times you go through the loss of a beloved pet, it's always like losing a member of the family, and it leaves a big hole for a while. I'm sorry for your loss.

    The loss of a dog leaves an enormous pit of emptiness. Dogs hold
    nothing back. The interspecies bonds are real, strong, mysterious,
    and deep. My heart goes out to you.
