"Barbara O’Brien’s wide-ranging account of Zen history is conveyed with a master storyteller’s ability to keep the forest from getting lost in a myriad of trees. Wearing her scholarship lightly, she blends just the right amount of skepticism about her hagiographic sources with a deep appreciation for the Dharma." — Barry Magid, author of
Nothing Is Hidden and

I love talking animals! Our mixed breed foxhound/beagle says stuff all of the time. Mostly she says, “woo woo, mama” which cracks up the family. Our cats don’t say much, but occasionally they will chatter at squirrels, which I also find hilarious.
When I was a kid, my grandparents lived in a very rural area and someone in their area had an old hound dog that would moan, “lordy, lordy, lordy” late at night, scaring us all half to death.

Some very brave person got this video. I wait on three cats of my own. Based on their behavior, this is one puddy too pissed-off to be messed with.
