7 legs
This is Gerty and Gladys, 2 new arrivals at the Dubdog abode seen on a rare visit to the big outdoors i.e. our backgarden. Sisters of about 8 years, they've settled in well and are dominating our existing 2 cats and 1 dog. Gerty has only three legs, having lost one of her back ones in a RTA last year. She has quickly become the studio cat, taking over my computer chair and moaning at every design cliché I make. I might have to change the name of the studio to Dubcat at this rate.

Saving homes in Suffolk
Dubdog is proud to announce it's involvement with ICCARS, an Ipswich based charity that helps prevent homelessness by providing advice and representation at Ipswich County Court possession hearings. With the design for their website signed off last night, there's just the finishing touches, last minute copy and testing galore to go before it's official launch date of July 11th, 2007. Find URL link from here when site goes live.

So He Goes.
Kurt Vonnegut dies 11.04.07. So it goes.
Here's a quote -
" 'We are killing this planet as a life-support system with the poisons from all the thermodynamic whoopee we're making with atomic energy and fossil fuels, and everybody knows it, and practically nobody cares. This is how crazy we are. I think the planet's immune system is trying to get rid of us with AIDS and new strains of flu and tuberculosis, and so on. I think the planet should get rid of us. We're really awful animals. I mean, that dumb Barbra Streisand song, 'People who need people are the luckiest people in the world' - she's talking about cannibals. Lots to eat. Yes, the planet is trying to get rid of us, but I think it's too late.'
And I said goodbye to my friend, hung up the phone, sat down and wrote this epitaph: 'The good Earth - we could have saved it, but we were too damn cheap and lazy.' "
from: Kurt Vonnegut, A Man Without A Country. 2006.
Here's another -
"He was one of the very few prominent Americans who was unafraid to call himself a socialist. Still railing against stupidity and injustice in 2007, he leaves us at a time when a voice like his is as necessary as it ever was. So it goes."
