Akira Comments 1: About My Name

 



Hi. My name is Akira, as you can see. The name Akira supposedly means "Intelligent," and that I am. 

It seems that my owner chose my name because she thought that it was a unique name for a unique dog. Later, she entered me in a popularity contest and discovered that there were two or three other intelligent dogs like me who were also named "Akira." How would Robert Burns have responded to that situation? Let me give you a hint: John Steinbeck applied Burns expression to his own book.


 If you are intelligent enough to figure out the answer, come back here and write it in the section for comments. You can leave other comments there too. Come back and visit me again soon! 


P.S. In my next note, I might show you an intimate picture of myself. The camera could not get all of the head of the guy in the photo, but I look pretty good. That's good enough for me.

You are also encouraged to consider giving a donation to help the Air Ambulance Charity Kent, Surrey, Sussex in Chatham, England, United Kingdom. Four of April's challenges started on April 1, 2022, and three of them ended on April 30. Since The Hound Hike 100 (100 Miles, in our case) was the longest challenge and would take the most days to complete, we will treat it as the first challenge of the month. The organization expressed its challenge in these words: "We challenge you and your canine companion to walk a minimum of 100 kilometers or 100 miles by the end of April 30, 2022. Together you will help save lives with every step you take." "Join this STRAVA Club to help track your progress." To learn a little more about the organization that promoted this challenge, I invit

We continue to inform you about the March 2022 challenges that Akira and I accepted, the digital insignias that we received for successfully completing them, and a donation promoted to help the victims of Ukraine through the International Committee of the Red Cross. Ukraine Relief Challenge   March 2022 During the month of March we promoted donations for a worthy cause that was part of the seventh challenge of March 2022.
