My dog is "interesting". I have a CD carousel that is on "random" play almost all day and night. Duke has a nice bed in the living room and another in the bedroom. I have a lot of difficulty sleeping, and if I can breathe well enough, I head off to bed at odd hours. If I leave the stereo on, Duke stays on the living room bed. If there is no music, he retires to the bedroom.
It could be that when you turn off the music, that signals to him it's bedtime. When you leave the music on, he may be expecting you to come back.

I don't know, and he ain't tellin' He is a shelter-rescue with a lot of character. He has a lot of "rules" and I haven't figured them all out yet.

I'd love to meet his former owner, so that I could congratulate him or her for training him so well, and then beat the crap out them for abandoning him on the streets. No pet deserves that.

My best friend died a bit earlier today. I was able to speak to his wife and his son this evening, and there was sadness all around. His son offered that "at least the suffering is over". I could only respond with silence. Too sad.

I will miss my friend terribly. He and I were rock-hound nuts and many of my favorite memories of him evolved around our forays into the woods to get rocks.

Snakes Denied Right to an Education:
Australian officials shut down a day-care center in the Northern Territory Thursday because of an infestation of at least 23 baby pythons and their much larger mother.
It all started Wednesday, when a single hatchling Australian carpet python was spotted at the Mitchell Street Childcare Center in Darwin. The following day, seven more little snakes were seen slithering around the community center, which cares for children 6 weeks to five years old...

Thank you. I will miss him terribly. Speaking with his wife and son today was quite painful. I have known his son since he was a pup, and it was quite disconcerting to talk to him today and try to get any degree of normalcy.

I might need some time to get over this. My wife and I called my my father tonight, and he was pretty broken up. My friend was a fixture at our house, especially around the holidays, so he will certainly be missed.

Whether He exists or not is the least important and interesting question about God.
That's what religions never understood.
