Virb has just brought to my attention what may conceivably be the greatest tragedy of my life so far. A central figure in my life, a savior to abandoned pets everywhere, an icon and an inspiration to all will be stepping away from his role in the public light. Yes, I am speaking of none other than the great Bob Barker. Some may know that it is a personal dream of mine to someday meet this great man, a dream that would be best fulfilled by being a contestant on that little gem of a tv show 'The Price is Right.' I will now also have to give up my aspiration to be a 'Barker Beauty,' and I suppose I can schedule classes between 11 and 12 from now on. My life has been changed today.

He retires in June, allowing for 7 months of pure appreciation for this great man in the role he was born to play. More information about his retirement and his life can be found at the following:
