Beautiful! Our pets are our family members. I will always remember the scene in What dreams may come with Robin Williams when he was greeted by his Dalmatian in heaven. I cried like a little baby and told my wife, I sure hope heaven is like that... I want to meet my family members including our four legged ones.

Have fun with your new addition Kona!

I'm going to help out with stats for a few days, while K2 strives to bring some order back into the household.
Hopefully, it won't come to threats, but after all the Holiday Challenges, I understand K2 has quite a lot of pull with The Jolly One.

The new puppy's name, Kai, seems to be rich in meaning.
In Ancient Greek, Kai is a conjunction meaning "and"
In Basque, Kai is a common word meaning "pier of a harbour."
In Burmese, Kai means "strong" or "unbreakable"
In Mandarin Chinese, Kai is a common given name with one of several meanings, most often "victory", another being "open."
In Cornish, Kai means "dog", and so dogs are often given this name.
In Estonian, Kai is a female name meaning "pier."
In Finnish, Kai is a common male name, Finnish form of Kaj. The term "kai" also means "probably" in Finnish.
In Hawaiian, Kai means "ocean" or "ocean water."
In Japanese, Kai has a number of meanings, including "ocean," "shell," "restoration" and "recovery."
In Maori, Kai means "food."
In Navajo, Kai means willow tree.
In North Germanic languages, Kai means "keeper of the keys; earth". In Germanic languages, Kai means "quay" or "safe harbor."
In Scottish, Kai means "fire."
In Swahilli, Kai means "loveable," and is given to a baby girl.
In Urdu, Kai is short for "Kainat," meaning "universe".
In Welsh, Kai is a popular given name normally spelt Cai, from the Arthurian legend of Sir Kay.
In Wolof (Senegalese language) kai means "come."

I somehow get the impression that "come" does not yet quite fit. So for now, we'll go with "keeper of the keys," and hope that they're not the car keys. And we'll give them a little jingle for the special numbers.

thanks for taking over the stats :}

and mazel tov to k2 :} btw...kai is close to chai which is hebrew for life....

btw...i'm a light weight when it comes to drinking...that's water in the bud light cup :]

I made one of my goals this year today - I now have 25 million life time. So glad my wife bought rower for me! Gives me something to do in Qatar after work.

Take care Happy Rowing!

Fantastic achievement, Ed !! That was quite a lofty goal to knock off so soon.
Makes me wonder when I'll hit that mark. I'm thinking maybe ...

Zowie, Ed, that's some serious after-work rowing if you accumulated all those meters since March 2012! Congratulations!

Nice work, danwho! I enjoyed all the Kai meanings. It's been almost 12 years since there was a puppy here, and they have apparently gotten bigger and faster. Household order may be difficult to achieve, but I do appreciate a couple of days to get a chuckle (Far Side and the blister was a good one). Onward, everyone! More milestones are just around the next erg session....
