Should I suspend her driving privileges?

Not only am I not a classical scholar, but I'm afraid Coco isn't either. While I've tried encouraging her efforts at blogging (and Lord knows I need an omnipotent administrator around here), she just isn't developing an interest in basic reading the way I'd like.

Not that I haven't made every effort:

Still, no matter how much I try, the result is always this:

But just let her get behind the wheel of a car!

Sigh.

I'm open to suggestions.

I guess some Canine Americans just have more intellectual curiosity than others.

I suggest better books. Have you tried Clown?

Coco's very impressionable and I think that book might contain strong language and pit bull violence.

(Plus, what if she devoured it?)

Maybe I should try something other than 'Principles of Mathematical Analysis'.

Good points! :)

There are books printed in braille, so maybe she just needs one printed in smell.

She might enjoy Old Yeller, White Fang, or Call of the Wild. Or maybe the pamphlet you get from the driver's testing station so she can study for her license.

A recap, part 1 With Digital ID World in the books as a success, I always like to take a look back at "what I learned." As an organizer of the conference, Digital ID World is always a whirlwind experience for me, but I find that as I look back
