emails  amongst yourselves so the dust can settle before the National?   




I remember talking to Paul, right after Hunte was voted in, and he thought  
when he went to a show, everyone would jump on him. The truth is, when we get  
together, all this arguing and moaning, (I left the beginning of that phrase  
off) is gone. We all know that we are strong willed people. We have strong  
emotions, and unlike our dogs, we are seldom aloof.
 
But, while we shout, yell, and criticize each other, we stand together in  
the love of our breed. I know when we get to a show, let alone the National, it 
 
is all behind us, and we smile together to watch the Parade of Greats, or the 
 fantastic puppies that are the future of our breed. We can't but help 
grinning  at the young handlers, and a warm feeling at the old folks, (other 
than 
me) who  will share a kind word, and a smile.
 
It makes us feel great to hug an old friend, and even if we have said some  
strong words over the past year, that is in the past and melts away from the  
warmth of friendship in and out of the ring.  We don't hold grudges, and we  
never let a past word or phrase ruin the great times of togetherness we all 
feel 
 at the National.
 
When Lew and I ran against each other, and went to Reno, him to judge and  me 
to show, we laughed no end at those who thought we might be at each other's  
throat. I was so glad to see him, and he me, (I am sure).  It is a bond we  
share with our breed, and nothing can break it.
 
I have no worries that the words thrown about on this List, are nothing  more 
that passing fancies, and the hearts will warm, the feeling will remain  
strong, the friendships will grow, and the emotions will carry us through a  
great 
national.  
 
Not that there is anything wrong with that.
