I like dogs. I'm a dog person, but I don't have time for one. I have cat. Not a cat person. But I like our cat anyway.
I think dogs in stores, eating, and drinking establishments is a little weird unless they are service dogs. Real service dogs, not "I really like my dog" service dogs.
But know your dog. Any possibility that dog will bite someone? Stays in the house. A friend's dog bit me last week, twice. Stupid little toy poodle, or some such thing. It broke skin and it hurt, but it wasn't dangerous, just really annoying. Literally an ankle biter.
Man, looking at 1997, though (I know I'm two days late). I was in South Korea and very few Badger games were on TV. Season opener against Syracuse was, though. They whupped the Badgers. Then got smacked around by the Georgia Bulldogs in January at the Outback Bowl. A Georgian stationed with me let me know how much Wisconsin sucked every chance he got. He hadn't even gone to Georgia--went to North Georgia College. That guy--for more reasons than just football--got me to dislike Georgia football for a long time.
Hadn't thought about that in a while. Shouldn't dwell on negative things like that.
Nowadays I kinda like the Georgia Dawgs, between Cincy and some fellas I worked with for a few years. I've been to Athens several times, but never made it over a football weekend. Still in the cards, I hope.
