Russell Puppies -Blog16

In the image above is my puppy. His name is Benji.

The Jack Russell Terrier or Parson Jack Russell Terrier originated in England in the 19th century. Their name derived from the Reverend John Russell, a hunting enthusiast, who was the first person to breed them for fox hunting. The Jack Russell Terrier is exceedingly adept at digging and burrowing into foxholes and dens.

The Jack Russell is a happy, bold, energetic dog; they are extremely loyal, intelligent, and assertive. Their greatest attribute is their working ability, closely followed by their excellent qualities as a companion. Unlike some modern breeds, Jack Russells have one type, hunting. Hunting ability is bred into them. It is their nature. The unique personality of this feisty terrier is rapidly gaining popularity, but they are not a dog for everyone, especially first time dog owners. While adaptable to to a variety of environments, they are first and foremost bred to hunt.

Jack Russell Terriers are very energetic dogs, with a big need for regular exercise. They are working dogs, and need to have a job, whether it be keeping your yard free of rodents, chasing a ball, or going for a run or long walk with it's owner. Sitting on the couch peacefully all day is not in a Jack Russell's agenda. They require more of a time commitment than some breeds.

Have a little love on a little honeymoon
You got a little dish and you got a little spoon
A little bitty house and a little bitty yard
Little bitty dog and a little bitty car

Well, it's alright to be little bitty
Little hometown or a big old city
Might as well share, might as well smile
Life goes on for a little bitty while

A little bitty baby in a little bitty gown
It'll grow up in a little bitty town
Big yellow bus and little bitty books
It all started with a little bitty look

Well, it's alright to be little bitty
Little hometown or a big old city
Might as well share, might as well smile
Life goes on for a little bitty while

You know you got a job and a little bitty check
Six pack of beer and television set
Little bitty world goes around and around
Little bit of silence and a little bit of sound

A good ole boy and a pretty little girl
Start all over in a little bitty world
A little bitty plan and a little bitty dream
It's all part of a little bitty scheme

Well, it's alright to be little bitty
Little hometown or a big old city
Might as well share, might as well smile
Life goes on for a little bitty while



Under the Influence, Alan Jackson finds the much-awarded self kicking back to relax with his buddies in the studio. He says he did the album for fun, without heed to commerciality. Somewhat to his surprise, the executives at Nashville have embraced the project as enthusiastically as they have any of his previous works. When he first began to sing country music in Georgia, Alan Jackson was especially influenced by the songs of Hank Williams Jr. The rowdy superstar was quite moved by Jackson's "Midnight In Montgomery," which paid homage to Hank Williams Sr. in 1992. Now Jackson salutes Hank Jr.'s songwriting prowess in a powerfully emotional reading of "The Blues Man." Jimmy Buffett's songs were a staple of every club entertainer of the 1970s and 1980s. Jackson not only revives "Margaritaville," he harmonizes with the enduringly popular Buffett on the tune. But unlike many who carry traditional country's banner, Jackson allows his music to grow and evolve. Indeed, his songwriting seemed to gain depth and insight as each new album was created. As a composer he has been behind such contemporary-country masterpieces.

Blog 14 - It's the little things that count.

On April 1,2011 my boyfriend bought me the roses and had them sent to me. How do you know your boyfriend is worth keeping around? He remembers the little things. Josh remembered that roses are my favorite. The card read "Just Cause". This was the first time anyone had ever sent me flowers, except for my daddy. Dad only does it for my birthday, because he has to, not because he wants to. It was a total surprise when Josh sent me these roses. It was definately the best surprise I have ever had in my entire life. I couldn't have been any happier, because that let me know that he cars.
When I saw him later that night he asked me what I thought of them and I talked about them all night. Then he asked me how I liked the balloons, and I didn't get any balloons. He called them and got his money back. I guess one balloon said "Just Cause" and the other one was supposed to have a Diabetic joke on it.

Warm weather is here again! Teenagers anticipate the warm breeze and sunshine. The thought of sitting around a bonfire and spending time with friends is exhilarating. What teens don't realize, is deaths caused by drunk driving is ever present and increasing every year. Crashes cause death of drivers, passengers and the people on the streets. People die in drunk driving accidents because of the driver. The driver could kill himself and the passengers. He also could kill the people in the streets. Alcohol affects the part of the brain that makes decisions and actions. So, a drunk driver can not decide what to do next and at what time. So, he causes the accidents and therefore, could kill many people. Drunk drivers become impaired and they are not in a correct state of thinking to drive. All teens should think twice before drinking and driving. You're best friends life would be on the line, as well as yours and other civilians on the raod.

Avril Lavigne 2011

Been seein’ to much of you lately
And you’re starting to get on my nerves.
This is exactly what happened last time and it’s not what we deserve
It’s a, it’s a waste of my time lately.
And I’m running out of words.
If it’s really meant to be than you can find a way to see

[chorus]
Maybe you should just shut up
Even when it gets tough
Baby ‘cause this is love.
And you know when push comes to shove
It’s gonna take the both of us
Baby, this is love
Baby, this is love

Love
Love
Love

It’s really great to be with you
This is how I spend my life
But I’m capable of taking care of myself
So if you fuck this up than go take a hike
It’s a waste of my time
Shakin’ it up,
Goin’ out to search if it’s really meant to be
Then you could find a way to see


[chorus]
Maybe you should just shut up
Even when it gets tough
Baby ‘cause this is love.
And you know when push comes to shove

It’s gonna take the both of us
Baby, this is love
Baby, this is love

You and me
We can both start over
Just the two of us
We can get a little closer

So follow me
Honestly
And you will see - Yeah

[chorus]
Maybe you should just shut up
Even when it gets tough
Baby ‘cause this is love.
And you know when push comes to shove
It’s gonna take the both of us
Baby, this is love
Baby, this is love

Maybe you should just shut up
Even when it gets tough
Baby ‘cause this is love.
And you know when push comes to shove
It’s gonna take the both of us
Baby, this is love
Baby, this is love

Love
Love
Love

I chose these lyrics, becuase this is my favorite song on her new CD; Goodbye Lullaby. This album, unlike her others, is mellow. Half of the songs on this album were written by Avril herself, and she co-wrote the rest of the songs. When asked what the significance of the album was, Avril replied; "It represents the record and me growing, moving forward, opening a new chapter in life and closing the door on another." Avril wrote the  song "Darlin" when she was fifteen years old. Avril also admitted that being part of the song writting process makes the project that more closer and important to her. Avril also hopes that the next big hit single is 'Push'.
