Well done Nika! Be sure to tell your water-carrying Riley that the easiest way to remove that hideous wallpaper (sans an actual wallpaper removing device and/or chemicals) is to use an old steam iron. Don't tell him that once it is used for this, it can never be used on clothes again, this way he won't be able to land a "job" 💼 that requires impeccable appearance, you want him there schlepping that good artesian well water to fill your water bowl. 💪🏻🐕

Made me smile.

Thank-you.

Removal of multiple layers of wall paper will likely result in inadequate insulation, come winter, Nika. Make him stop!

It quite possibly also keeps the walls from tumbling down - this is a rather dangerous game your human is playing....

Dear Riley you are one of my top 5 favorites …the others are Fabio Vighi, the English bloke who reposts your stufff, RWA Russians w attitude, Alex Krainer, Whitney Webb etc BUT I subscribe to no one. I love you. Signed a retired 83 year old Arctic expert. „I know everything better than everybody else“ KIDDING. Ps your are correct about the cabal poisoning us with their jabs. Pure evil. See Drs mark and Sam Bailey book the final(last) pandemic. Have a super life. You are the BEST.

Nika, you are very fortunate to have a friend like Edward to make sure, that things are running smoothly in your NCBR

facilities. I hope, that he doesn’t just carry water, but occasionally goes out hunting for some meat for you. Does he??

My dogs Frank and Lana here in West Virginia, USA say hello to Nika and hope it will be possible to all play together someday. I will give them extra belly rubs today in remembrance of your fine friend. Thanks for this post, Edward.

Great! There's nothing like intelligent dogs that take matters into their own hands! Keep up the good work Nika👍🏼

“classic Babushka Rococo style” 😂 That’s one funny dog!

Nika, clearly you have found your position - on your back, belly offered for prolonged rubs and wildly waving legs to ensure balance is maintained. I would love to schedule an appointment to give you long and frequent rubs. You must post your hours!

The tour of your institute (🤫 we will keep that on the down-low for awhile, or at least until Edward has that wall-paper removal project accomplished) was most enjoyable and interesting. Babushka Rocco must go. I think your style might be a Boyar House/Simple Peasant combo. Renovation might take some time since Edward must also carry water for you. Are you looking after him well? He seems like an excellent assistant. Obviously, no DEI under your management.

Keep us updated on the progress of the institute. Interest is skyhigh!
