Ripken was with The Experiment from Day One. He was an important part of The Experiment and helped make it as successful as it has been. When things got tough and decisions had to be made, he was always there with a wagging tail and a smile on his face. I will miss him more than I can say! It is sad to think that he won't be around to see how things turn out. We will raise a glass to Rip on his birthday this May.
