TeleportingThe instructions that come with teleporting deal with our fears and the people teleporting before us have already gone through all this. I have the instructions somewhere, but I can’t stop in mid-teleport to read the instructions. I just trust and think of the place I want to be and go for it.

I think I could do their jobs better than they can with my friendliness and wise decisions.Most people ask if I’m good at herding. I suppose they mean herding sheep because that is what most border collies do, some to more effect than others. I like keeping my family tog...
