"Bacon says that reading makes a full man; well, I cannot help thinking that many people are full to the brim when they reach the age of forty, and that much which they read afterwards put into the overcharged vase merely drips and slobbers uncomfortably down the side and foot."

(Arthur Christopher Benson. "Books" in From a College Window. New York: G.P. Putnam's Sons, 1906. pp. 52-53)

Meet #frankie and #Maggie!

I met these two gorgeous puppies whilst grabbing an early morning coffee and they were delightful. Best of friends and waiting patiently for their owner to appear from the cafe.

Frankie (#Frenchbulldog I think, maybe part #pug) was friendly and sat by being patted, looking for body heat. He was a little chilly, shivering away!

Maggie, well isn’t she just a lovely natured beauty, pawing me for more and more… and even more pats and adoration.

Their owner came out and we had a chat. He said I was like the fourth person to photograph them this morning (yes, he gave permission!!).

But I said to him; “they’re about to be become stars on Masto!!” He was wrapped!

So folks, boost far and wide, let’s get Frankie and Maggie trending here so more eyes can feast on these pawsome pooches!

Ik hoorde plots een verdacht geluid. Blijkt de vuilnisbak niet helemaal gesloten en dat bakje van de zure room bleek onweerstaanbaar voor de Momo #slobber

Another #MaxMorning.

Here comes my big #Goof playing #Fetch in the #Snow.
Looks like a #Treat is in order, right?

Very very cold here today.
6" of snow yesterday.

Max had a good layer of snow and #Frozen #Slobber plastered to his mouth by the time we left. #Proof of #Fun.

He certainly is a #Snowdog.
