Newest family member. His full name is Despereaux DiGiacomo (pronouced de jock amo), We call him Jocki.

He is a tiny (breed) Yorkshire Terrier. He is about 12 weeks old and weighs 2 pounds 5 ounces. He will weigh about 5 pounds as an adult. We got him from a local breeder on Saturday. The vet has given him a clean bill of health.

He belongs to my wife.

Both of my cats are at least twice his size. 

They haven't eaten him yet.

Aunt has a puppy just like that. Very cute, but I'm always afraid of stepping on him.

Worked at a coworkers house today (we live only a few miles apart and are on the same customer). His wife has a mini-poodle. Thing is about 1/2 the size of their cat.

If I knew where you lived, he'd be gone tomorrow! LOVE Yorkies! We've had a few and are going to be getting one in the spring.
I can see November 2 from my house!!!

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Just hand over the chocolate...back away slowly...far away....and you won't get hurt....

Save the Earth... it's the only planet with chocolate.

"My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far I've finished two bags of M&M's and a chocolate cake. I feel better already." – Dave Barry

A balanced diet is chocolate in both hands.

Iv'e got a cat 4X's the size of that dog. No worries though, he's too lazy to chase him down and eat him.
“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”
