POSSESSED-TO-LABRADOODLE RATIO
Having, in a recent post, expressed some concern regarding the global Possessed-to-Labradoodle ratio, I was thrilled to receive the following images of Boswell, Adelaide-based Labradoodle:

| DID HER EDITOR MAKE HER WRITE THIS INTRODUCTION? |

| BARK! WHO KILLED TOLSTOY? |

| I CAN’T BELIEVE IT’S OVER!!! |
A big thanks to James for the moving and inspirational pictures – which, to be totally honest, filled me not only with delight at my widening empire, but also with an inexplicable melancholy. I so much wished I had a Labradoodle called Boswell! I think I just really miss my intern, who has been on the other side of the planet for several months now, holding down the US side of business…
Speaking of business, latest 5-star review is up here.

He’s gruff but he knows his stuff.

That’s funny. I just taught “A Shinagawa Monkey” to four classes of high school seniors, and about 90% of the kids though I was raving mad. But c’mon, who hasn’t lost their name?

This has nothing to do with labradoodles (unfortunately!) but I thought you had to see this: http://urlai.com/url/elifbatuman.net
Apparently, urlai.com is a website that somehow “analyses” the text of blogs to determine the gender, age, mood, and tonality of the writer. I ran all of my favorite blogs and yours is apparently “probably written by a female somewhere between 66-100 years old. The writing style is personal and happy most of the time.” According to this, your blog is only 1/3 academic! Clearly you need to be writing about Kafka more.
