Now I hope you girls don't mind some photos of this little fella. Harry really is the happiest dog in the world! But totally useless if you want a guard dog! The other day, I was told he was scared of a big fly in the house! His predecessor would try to catch one while he was distressed by it!
This was him begging for another paper bag after already destroyed one.

Look at that face! And the little mess behind him, LOL. I was about to compliment your cool trousers, but I guess that's the bedspread, right? HAHA! I would totally wear that.

LOL! I am glad someone noticed the mess he's already made! He was trying to make nothing of it! If anything, he thought it wasn't enough mess!
Hahaha on the "cool trousers"! I can totally see them now! Yes it's the bed cover.
 
Thanks - these are great suggestions! I like to do needlepoint while watching TV or listening to a podcast and I was really running out of things to watch - or so I thought!

When I'm in the kitchen or doing chores around the house, I usually have the radio on. I love so many of the programs on NPR. If i miss a good one, I'll listen to the podcast later. Here are are a few of my favorites:

Fresh Air - conversations with Terri Gross
Here's the Thing - conversations with Alec Baldwin
RadioLab - described as a show about curiosity, bringing together science, philosophy, and human experience
Wait Wait Don't Tell Me - very funny quiz show about current news
Freakonomics - lots of interesting topics related to economics
Says You! - funny quiz show about words and wordplay

Catherine Tate is a regular guest on Graham Norton. She is very funny! I did not like Dr. Who after Tennant left. Don't watch it anymore.

I don't know the Graham Norton show, will look it up! Speaking of talk shows, the crazy, silly Jiminy Glick show was very funny. Martin Short interviews celebrities while portraying his character Jiminy Glick.

Yes there are quite a few. Like The Office, which I find the UK version much much funnier than the US version.
And I am binge watching Mistresses at the moment. The show is also based on the UK version but 3 seasons into it they moved quite far away from the original. The show itself is really a glorified soap opera and I don't normally watch these. But but this one has some really yummy male caste members! :graucho::graucho: The story line is cheesy as hell and many many holes but hey, the eye candies make up for it!

:biggrin:

Loved this show too! The scenery is beautiful! Brings back our memories of several trips to that part of the world!

I love that part of CA, so beautiful! Plus Carmel is extremely dog friendly! :smile:

Darling Harry!! :love: Love him so much! He has a growing international fan club, my husband just joined this AM. :biggrin: But when my DH looked closer and saw the debris in the background, he said it looked like Harry had been snacking on the woodwork! I assured him that our Harry is a complete angel :angel:, and that he'd just been helping out around the house, by shredding paper.

Honey, you are absolutely right! it was really just paper he shredded. There were several paper shopping bags and the debris were from one of them. Of course he would be punished if he chewed any woodwork.

You and me both, sister!!
I can tell what time of day it is by what is on NPR, I do the podcasts and the phone app too (3 local NPR channels yahoo!).
We don't get the Alec Baldwin show! I love previews I've heard though.
My favorites:
Fresh Air, I listen to it every day while running after work.
All things considered
Says you
Wait wait don't tell me
Science Friday
Freakonomics
Radiolab
Selected shorts
Snap judgment
This American life
TED radio hour
Really, all Sunday is the best shows all day!

I really miss: the show with the "History Guys!!" and the Canadian show with "Dave and Morley" where the host just passed away a few months ago (I listed to that show since I was a little child with my mom in the car).

I can't stand: A Prairie Home Companion. Though it is so much better with the new host, he makes it more lighthearted at least, though it's still not for me. The original version was truly unbearable in my opinion! When I was younger I applied to adopt 2 cats from the humane society (who are sadly no longer with us). In Seattle many cats and dogs live in foster homes instead of at the shelter while waiting to be adopted. I went to the cat foster mom's house and there were 27492938733 cats in a one-story house, it smelled like cats, it was absolutely freezing cold because it was winter and 1/4 of people in Seattle are too environmentally conscious to use any significant amount of power, and while I played with the cats for an hour or two (in the freezing cold and smelly house) to get to know them, A Prairie Home Companion played from the woman's radio, and that is really the only person who I can imagine enjoying that show!

ROFL!!!!! For sure. That story is hilarious. I can't stand that show, even though friends have been on it and say it's all lovely. Ugh. My ex was from Minnesota and he would listen to it in the car. He would be weeping and laughing and I would be barfing.
