My View of Life on the Dock
You know those people who are up every teacher’s butt thinking their kid is 2000th percentile and their gifted child deserves special treatment and if the kid scrapes his knee have to take them to the hospital?
My guess is that less than 15% of helicopter parents would ever admit to being helicopter parents.
Over/Under, what do you think?
I’m kind of astonished that these haven’t been made before but right here locally the brilliance that is Frosty Collars are being produced.
Check out Andrew and Annie Maniates Etsy shop where you can get one for your pup-

From the website-
I have worked in a hot kitchen for the past twenty-two years. I know what it’s like to be hot and miserable.
Last summer, I couldn’t help but notice, my dog was looking the way I felt at work; hot and miserable! I decided to try my chefs cooling collar on her, and sure enough, it worked. I spent the next several months researching, gathering materials, and working to develop a cooling collar just for pets. After a lot of trial and error and countless hours little dehlias FROSTY COLLARS were born.
FROSTY COLLARS are a non toxic water based cooling collar for your dog. Each collar is handmade in the USA of high quality fabric, durable nylon, and strong plastic clasps. Every FROSTY COLLAR is ajustable, so your pet is sure to have a comfortable fit. little dehlias FROSTY COLLARS are easy to use, simply toss them in the freezer bag and pop it in the freezer. In an hour or two it will be ready for your dog to enjoy. FROSTY COLLARS will provide cooling comfort for up to two hours.
Going for a walk in the mid-day sun? FROSTY COLLARS are right for you. Playing in the back yard with the children? FROSTY COLLARS are right for you. Relaxing on the front porch? FROSTY COLLARS are right for you. Young or old, large or small, FROSTY COLLARS will keep your hot dog feeling cold. Try a little dehlias FROSTY COLLARS today.
Gloucester resident Chris Mangos and two Gloucester daytimers* Joanna Smart and Deb Fowler, completed the Tough Mudder over the weekend in Gilford, New Hampshire. The Tough Mudder is a 12 mile obstacle course, up and down the steep terrain of Gunstock Mountain. Obstacles included diving into an ice pool (affectionately called the Artic Enema), crawling through dark muddy tunnels, lifting and carrying logs up hill, and running through mud pits with electrically charged wires hanging overhead. Why would anyone do this? To challenge themselves, to break out of their humdrum all-work-and-no-play lifestyle, and for the fun and camaraderie of the experience. Most participants are part of a team, and with a motto of "no man left behind," any Mudder who needs a hand can count on one of their teammates to help. The Tough Mudder also donates a percentage of their profits to The Wounded Warrior Project, an organization that assists severely injured veterans.
Part of the training for Chris, Joanna and Deb included jumping in the cold waters of Magnolia Beach in April, and running the trails around Goose Cove Reservoir and Ravenswood Park. Although they are suffering sore muscles, all completed the course in good condition! Job well done!
*Gloucester daytimers = anyone who is employed in Gloucester but does not live here.
If selected I’ll read your question and ask our guest.

TRY SUPYoga, this summer.
Andrew Love has been hired away by a neighboring TV station. I am so happy for Andrew’s new job opportunity but think I speak for the entire community when I say we are so sorry to see him leave CATV. Andrew will be sorely, sorely missed by all.
Andrew will continue to live on Cape Ann, and remains available to hire as a freelance producer, videographer, editor, director–Andrew’s skills are many–and as I said before, Andrew is a genius! Seriously!
The following is a short film Andrew made for the company videoimpacts. It is a story that highlights the dangers of texting and driving. Beautiful work and great job Andrew!

We’re back on “summer” hours, that is we’re starting at 8:30 and flailing till 11:30. Make a note of it!
And I’m so happy to have back my all-time favorite nose-tweaking band: The Three Stooges. That’s the dynamic trio of Mr. Rikky “King” Russell, on gootar, Mr. Edd “Duodenum” Scheer on drummbs, and Mr. Mario “Cutie-pie” Perrett on foghorn. And me, of course, on bass. These guys could break the land speed record if they wanted to. I’m just happy they could find the place. Every session is riddled with bad jokes, frothy ripostes, and the most curious collection of self-stolen songs. Think Philip Marlow meets L’il Richard. Everybody sings, everybody plays and we all get inspired. Don’t miss it!

A noteworthy new program is being celebrated tomorrow, Thursday, June 6, from 5-7 pm at the Rocky Neck Cultural Center (lower level gallery). It is the Art Colony’s Teaching Artist Partnership, a two-year pilot program funded by the Massachusetts Cultural Council through the 2013-14 academic year. The program brings professional artist members of the Rocky Neck Art Colony into O’Maley Innovation Middle School as artists in residence, to enhance teaching objectives through the visual arts. The works on display tomorrow, presented by artists Gigi Mederos and teacher Brett Dunton, are papyrus made from celery, then painted in hieroglyphics to link with the students’ study of Egyptian culture.
Bodin Historic Photo is a unique art gallery located in downtown Gloucester!
