LF James Bond novel would be _The Man with the Golden Gun_. Fleming wrote it, but died before it was fully edited. The publisher published it anyway. Consequently, it reads like a first draft.

Dusk midway through the year. It’s 6:00 when you wake up from a nap, you look outside and think “Is that dusk, and I woke up just in time for dinner…_or is it dawn and I just missed my bus to go to work???_” 😃

_The Big Bang Theory_ episode where Sheldon in back in Texas, while the gang decorates the Christmas tree and speculate on what their lives would be like if none of them had met Sheldon. It’s just confusing, and Stuart is especially irritating.

The _Frosty the Snowman_, where the animation isn’t any better than a weekly episode of a Saturday morning cartoon, and the story is stupid too.

> LF dog whistle

The one that I couldn’t hear at all, so I never knew if the dog was blowing me off, or if the whistle wasn’t working. A good dog whistle is designed so it produces a sharp, loud sound in the dog range, but also a feeble sound in the human range that the blower can hear, to verify that the whistle has been blown correctly. I had one like that, and my dog responded great to it. Then I lost it. I got a replacement, and it was totally silent. Sometimes the dog responded, sometimes she glanced at me, but didn’t really respond, and sometimes she totally blew me off. Since I had no idea whether the whistle had produced a sound or not, I didn’t know whether she was actually blowing me off, or the whistle was a piece of crap.

I threw it out and looked all over for the kind I’d had before, and finally found one. It saved my voice from yelling her name when she was on the other side of the dog park, or off leash in the woods, and had wandered a little to far.  
LF thing you had to teach your dog, either to do, or not to do, that you hadn’t expected (in other words, not housebreaking).
