Well you have just made my day. The video is absolutely awesome. Definitely livin’ large! Can’t wait for the next release!
But the heoo Dolly? I sure haven’t laughed this hard in a long, long time. I can’t even read it all! Gotta go blow my nose. I’ll be laughing in my sleep.
I remember the pic with the two pups when it was posted!
