Have a Thin Mint.

This is my neice Britta's dog Skylar all dress up for the holidays. She is such a funny dog and we are best buds now, but a couple of years ago she was not so fond of me. That's when I discovered the trick to turning enemies into friends -- treats.

In fact, I would like to suggest that soldiers walk around Afghanistan and other countries not with guns but with pockets full of treats. I think we'd have a lot of friends than enemies. Send everyone in the world a box of thin mints for the holidays and see how many people friend you on Facebook.

Oh well just a thought on a gray and dreary November day.
