Sweet pooch. We just adopted a 3+ year old girl last weekend....

WOW.  Great to hear you're doing the right things for her (no surprise, but still...)

It is terrible what some people will do to an animal.
But then it is terrible what some people will do to their own family.
There is a pilot here who just help send someone away for life... and rightfully so!
(ask him for the story next time you see him...)

Give a puppydog the right things for a long healthy life...
and they will repay you with the kind of unconditional love that only they can.

"Mans best friend"

On Jury Duty for the last couple of days. Sick SOB raped and beat his wife for three days. It wasn't enough for him to break her ribs one by one, He also beat her with a golf club. There are some F'd up people in the world. Well,minus one (on the streets) now. First Count - Life sentance. Second Count - 99 years. I sleep well last night, Knowing that bastard will never walk the streets again.

Putting together those awful courtroom meladramas was what I used to do for a living. It's not like Perry Mason. Jen and I have seen it all... and I mean all of it. She was a felony probation officer for years and years. She got them after they finished my "meladrama"... if they got probation. Your happy camper will probably be rooming with some people I used to know.

I agree -when it is appropriate.

I saw a little mutt-puppy once...

Ok, so... what do you think about bacon flavored cigar shaped snacks? We can call them Duke's... and we can get Paris Hilton to feed them to her pooch on TMZ and everyone will want them for their toy dogs so they can all look gangster wearing shirts and jewelry.

You may laugh but it's probably guaranteed to make millions!! People will spend more $$$ on their dogs than their kids. Screw college for little Billy the dog needs a new diamond studded collar and lead!!

Reminds me of a college economics course project a classmate friend and I came up with at UT/Austin. "Yowzer Bowzer Dog Breath Treats". Everyone knows that all dogs have bad breath. So, we came up with a make believe product and marketing scheme for the class to promote dog treats that the dogs would gobble up my the millions ( flavored ) but put taste labels on them that people would like. Cheeseburger, beef enchilada, lasagna, pepperoni pizza... you get the idea. Make the people think of yummy people food, the dog couldn't give a s#@t because they all taste like bacon to him and have some chemist come up with something in the treat that makes the dog's breath smell like he just had an Altoids. Even if it just lasted for two minutes. Then you'd have to give him another treat because now his breath is all doggy again. See, the perfect marketing scam. Dogs love the treats, the people "think" they must taste good to the dog because they are labled as yummy people food, the dog's breath is good for a few minutes... and the cycle repeats it's self endlessly all across the country. Petsmarts cannot keep them in stock. I make millions. Oh, and that's me sitting on the beach in St. Thomas surrounded by MotoGP umbrella girls sipping a top shelf marg looking over my off shore bank account statements!

Ahhh, a boy can dream can't he?? Hey, that's where my old Border Collie got he's name. Bowzer was named after that treat! Seriously.

My co-worker is seriously going to get his dog a diamond studded collar (I shit you not) but will NOT buy his wife a new diamond ring.  She wants an upgrade b/c she got hers 20 years ago before they had a lil "$" to spend.  They just had their 20th anniv and he didn't deliver.  I've been giving him a hard time about it.  He's already been to the Jeweler for the collar!  Bought his (17yr old) daughter a new Mini Cooper S and no ring for momma.  Sad.

Hmm, ok lets have them be bacon flavored but shaped and smell like fine cigars? We can sell them in the cigar boxes, or singles on the counter in the plastic wrapping... hmm We can even have some "select" Fido Castro limited edition ones smuggled in from Cuba HAHAH 


Whoa... putting down the caffeine now
