    Sam - I hate to break this to you, but I think the last poet to make "real" money in the U.S. may have been Rod McKuen (who I quite like and saw in concert 3 years ago).

    However, I've got a similar dog rescue pipe dream. The wife isn't digging it, but I think it would be great to have a sprawling farm with hundreds of rejected dogs.

    We'd all feast on steak and pity stray cats, as they wouldn't be allowed on the premises.
