No, I am not a fan of Sodoku. A good friend gave me a box set of easy to very hard Sodoku a few Christmases ago. She wound up doing WAY more of the puzzles than I did. ;-)
We had a pair of St. Bernards and the female used to chew on a rock that was a bit smaller than a tennis ball. She would bring it in the house, and we would toss it back into the yard. Eventually I put it in the garbage, and she found others but none to her liking I guess because she finally gave up chewing rocks. ;-)
And no commenters think it was wrong that she only wanted Marm along when she wanted something from him?!!! :-(
