2007/11/25-- UberPest.com Appears in the Book Outdoors Online

I fat fingered my URL the other day when I was coming here to post how Beau did in Canada. I instead got a Google search for my website. Nothing major, right? WRONG. I found this book--Outdoors Online: An Internet Guide to Everything Wild & Green by Erika Dillman (The Mountaineers, 2007). On page 141 (thank you Google Books!) there is a section titled "Trail Terriers" and it references this website (ding!). The most interesting thing, IMO, is not that the author says "Terriers" when I, in fact, have Curs... but that the names of my pets are Lucy, Beau, and Stuffy. As in my stuffed dog that I take places for fun. Kind of a stunt dog. I'm kind of curious how much time they spent researching my site... or if they just pulled a description off dmoz or something.

In any case, I'm looking for a copy of the book and if anyone has one they no longer need, I'll be more than happy to take it off their hands (buy or trade, I'm not a Scrooge) so I can have it for my collection.

Might want to go to Amazon and Borders and write a quick notation about Stuffy and the gang. That being said, the Stuffmeister is the nearly perfect hiking companion. He sits and stays, which is good unless you forget to pick him up and take him with you. He never wanders off alone to chase squirrels or rabbits and you (or he) don't need to pack along kibble for him. Stuffy is, well, well stuffed, and as such is a great stand-in pillow. Other than being a bit slow on the whole protect mama thing he's pretty good company.
