I will no longer be updating Iron Guide (see below). Instead, I am now writing at my new, personal blog. Though that will be about some of the newer things I'm doing in life, if you want to see updates about Louie, Lester, and now Dusky, add me on Facebook -- there's enough ridiculously cute pictures to go around.

Lester Goes to the Airport
A few days ago, my mom flew out to India. My dad and I saw her off at the airport, which -- really, let's not kid ourselves -- means that my dad, Lester, and I saw her off at the airport. Airports are tough in general -- tons of stressed-out people, police with some mean-looking dogs, odd-sounding oddly-timed voices over the loudspeaker, heavy luggage carts that sometimes don't look where they're going -- but the international terminal at LAX is just obscene. You could hardly see through the crowds at times!
Lester did just marvelously. In line, where we waited for more than an hour, Lester stayed perfectly by my side, laying down waiting most of the time, getting up and walking the few steps with me when the people ahead moved a little. Thirteen compliments! I counted. =) Six people wanted to know more: How old is he? How long is the training? Isn't it hard to give them up? Do they charge the people getting them? One even seemed interested in raising. He did, however, seem most interested in the fact that the other five people talking to me were all women. =P Wading through the crowds, Lester played it totally cool, ignoring the huge, overloaded carts of luggage, not at all perturbed by all the people swarming around him. Looking at the crowd from his height [picture at right], how you can barely see through it, it's actually a bit scary.

I was very, very impressed. Lester got insane amounts of praise. His tail was in overdrive the whole night.
