There are other responsibilities one can take on, aside from hosting a National Specialty, which could lead one to understand why I paraphrase the veteran's cliche. If there is one thing I learned in the Girl Scouts, it is never volunteer for anything.

Posted by: Dave Schuler at February 2, 2005 03:38 PMIf you mean the fancy of purebred dogs, not at all. The dog we had when our son was a youngster could best be described by the cat term American Shorthair Domestic, and Hunter is even less acceptable to the kennel clubs.
My point is that organizing a citywide training for Girl Scout leaders, or a countywide 4H competition, or a homeschooling conference with an out of town speaker all expose one to the same sort of panics and personality conflicts.
