We lawyers take those funds and channel them into handlers, entry fees, dog food, and vet bills. It is the American way. I see Ed Barritt is up to judge the national again. The last time he judged he told me it was going to be his last show, and I begged him to wait and see. I am delighted to see he has agreed to do it again. It is one of those who I would do anything to watch judge. You might not agree with his placings, but you have to love his procedure. He and Dave Rinke always make me realize why I should judge less. I can't do it that way, and doubt I ever will be able to. But, it might happen. Evan L.
