Now I loves me Country music, and it just struck me that one of my favourite tracks ("Nothing On Me" by Chris Knight) talks about a three legged dog called Jake, the relevant lyrics read:
I got a three-legged dog I call Jake
Got the won't back down scars on his face
He tussled with a bear and he came in second place
He comes back home every now and then
With some brand new scars that I have to mend
You know I'm proud to call ol' Jake my friend
Cause he's rode hard luck
He's been bruised and bucked
He's been hitting the ground
And turning around
And getting back up
For anyone interested the track is here:
- "what shall be done for these innocents? I have been warned not even to raise the question of animal immortality, lest I find myself “in company with all the old maids”. I have no objection to the company" - C S Lewis (The Problem of Pain)
- "Mr Toplady was touched by the cruelty of the scene, and exclaimed, ' Who could bear to see that sight, if there were not to be some compensation for these poor suffering animals in a future state' 'I certainly hope,' said my grandfather, ' that all the bulls will go to heaven; but do you think this will be the case with all the animal creation' 'Yes, certainly,' replied Mr Toplady, with great emphasis, ' all, all!" - Josiah Bull (recording a meeting with the great A. M. Toplady, author of "Rock of Ages" in "Memorials of the Rev. William Bull of Newport, Pagnel")
- "Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? And not one of them is forgotten before God" Luke 12:6
