In my travels around the USA (and elsewhere) for work, I’ve told quite a few jokes to help lighten the mood in my training classes. The one I can tell without thinking about it is: This blonde is driving, and gets a call from her husband, warning her about a car spotted going the wrong way on the highway, to which she replies: “Yeah, but it’s not just one – there are hundreds of them!!”

As I write this column, all four of the number-1 seeds in the March Madness Tournament have been defeated. Wow! Who saw that coming! With Easter just around the corner, perhaps it’s a good time to ask who or what is number-1 in your life? Life is so short.

A few months ago, I introduced readers to a new addition in our household – a “pretend” breed called a “Teddy Bear”, a Shih Tzu/ Bijon mix. I called her “Fluffbucket” – my wife called her “Milly”. She was really just a tiny puppy body swaddled in lots of soft, white fur. She quickly took over my wife’s lap, and began chewing everything she could get her mouth around – socks, flip-flops, shoes, chair legs…and my plastic containers.
