And In This Corner….

For  Roxie, the Japanese bobtail and Jean Claude, the Black Bombay play often erupts into an all in all cat fight complete with hissing, hollering, chasing  and the moving of very heavy furniture.  Usually Roxie, half JC’s size,  whips him good.   Jean Claude does get in a few licks before retreating to one of his spots.  Of course his favorite spot is on my back lawn where he likes to sit and watch the world.    Every great fighter has to rest after a battle.   Just learned that another famous fighter “Smokin”  Joe Frazier died at age 67.  Frazier, a boxing great, fancied himself a performer outside the boxing ring as well.  I  still remember  his off-key rendition of  Wilson Pickett’s “Don’t Let the Green Grass Fool You.”

Here is another lesser known song recorded by Frazier “Little Dog Heaven.”
