a little like comparing a granny smith to a red delicious...

the dog to the left is Rufus, the Bull Terrier that took "Best in Show" at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. now don't get me wrong--Rufus is a beautiful dog, but i've never understood how a dog show could really ever be fair. every dog lover has their favorite breed (i grew up around Labs, so i think they are the best) and i just don't know how you can compare a St. Bernard to a Chihuahua. even if you say you are comparing apples to apples, it really doesn't matter...i am going to have adifferent experience eating a granny smith than i would eating a red delicious or a fuji, and frankly i am going to like the granny smith the best.

so congratulations Rufus, but i'm still going to say that Champion Aquarius Centercourt Delight got the shaft...
