In filing this picture, I decided to name it "October Transitions" - for no particularly good reason other than the obvious. But, as it turns out, tomorrow (as I write this, that is - otherwise, Saturday) marks a day of transition for a certain up-and-coming surgeon/friend-of-the-famous pal of mine. So, as we say in Canada, "Happy Birthday, Eh?"!

(And, of course, I trust you noticed the "doggy" connection.)
