It can't "eat into" the victim, but it is loaded with germs and all sorts of ugly stuff that can cause a nasty infection. You need to get rid of that portion. I used to use something to smother the tick. It would start to back out just to get some oxygen. However, you are beyond that stage now. Better call the vet for advice. I hope you have tweezers and aren't using your fingers! Pat

It only comes out once a week in that little town. There was a big story on Afghan told from the view of a local man who had been there 10 years ago. It did mention "Osmar bin Laden." Close but no cigar! Pat

I really think a lot of behavior like this can be traced back to the family and the way this person grew up. For example, my husband is an only child and never could understand some of our boys' behavior. He used to say things like "Why do they leave their toys strewn about?" or "Why are they arguing about their toys? What difference does it make?" He couldn't understand the give and take of siblings at all and he used to try and come down hard on the boys when they were just behaving like regular brothers. I have seen some---and I do say some---only children that think the world revolves around them and they are entitled to everyone's adulation. My in-laws tried very hard to give my husband this attitude! I remember when we were dating and went to their house and his mother ran up and said, "Now, Jimmy, if you don't like the temperature in the house, feel free to change the thermostat to whatever you want." Had I tried that at my home, I would have drawn back a nub, most likely! Pat

I like to listen to the hockey news and the football news, but one of our stations drifts back and forth between speculating on women's bra sizes and whether they would "do" celebrities. Unfortunately, the station that Mark Davis is on has a clearer channel than most. He isn't ridiculous all the time---but I wish there were some kind of signal attached to the radio station so that when he gets offensive and people switch channels there would be some kind of "counter" that would reflect all of the people changing to another channel. Oh--and you don't have to listen but once to hear him repeatedly say "I luvya, man!" and "Ye-s-s-s-s-s-s--s?" Pat

A pair of Martians landed on a country road on Earth in the middle of the night. "Where are we?" one asked. "I think we're in an Earth cemetery," his companion answered. "See there is a gravestone over there-that man lived to be 108." "What was the man's name?" "Miles to Omaha"

Hi all: Our dog had a tick on her this evening. She is a Siberian husky so has long hair. They tried a lighter but were afraid of burning her hair. They tried perioxide and that didn't work. They tried rubbing alcohol and that didn't work. They finally used vasoline and said they thought the tick was dead and pulled it off, less the head. Our vet is gone for the day so wonder, at this point if the head is dead. I've heard that you have to get the head out or it will still keep eating into the victim. Helpless in California, Sandi

I don't know who he is. It was just funny to "hear" you two going fast and furious with his quotes. Hope I didn't offend anyone. I quite enjoyed it!
