Puppy update...

They are getting teeth.
They are getting fuzzy.
They are getting bigger.
I wish I could keep them all!









Boink..."Qua...Ow!"

I told you to duck.



:( I'm going to chase people away from my blog with these horrible puns...

Memorial park... or WTF?

I took a walk to a local park because our Village taxes have been paying for a wonderful Memorial section with benches and a little rock stream. On a Saturday afternoon I find this...



MY TAX DOLLARS!!! And they fence off the park and padlock it! I am PISSED!


I stepped up on to the fence and snapped a few pics of the areas I could not get to.


Maybe one day I'll find it open. :(

Pup meets pups...

Our friend was in town with her few month old border collie and stopped by to see the new pack.

"In a few short months..."


"You'll all be as big as ME!"

OMG! TOYS!...

WIIF? #34

Last week, RC burned his way to a win.

Here is What Is It Friday? #34



'chele gets me in the mood for some sushi with the correct answer of seaweed this week.



The fine print: On Fridays I will post an image in hopes that visitors will leave a guess in the comment section. The following Friday (or when someone guesses correctly) I will post a wide shot of the item. Each Friday a NEW image, along with a link to the previous weeks post, will be posted.

Looking back... (cell pic)

People always say "Don't look back." But I disagree. I like looking back... at all the good times... as well as the bad. The nights that our "pack" of friends played manhunt till the wee hours. The days of roller hockey in the freezing rain. The nights out with girlfriends and nights out with the one that became my wife. The concerts with loud music and the accompanying mosh pits :)

Times with family... weddings, funerals, holidays, sitting out on the balcony in Brooklyn. Thanksgiving at my grandparents. Discussing politics and watching ballgames.

Speeding and getting caught. Speeding and crashing. Speeding.

Dodgeball in high school. King of the hill. Wearing biker jackets. Piercings, tattoos, and long hair. Shaving my head. Going new wave. Going Punk.

Getting beat up and also holding my own. Working out and getting buff. Eating and getting fat. Back. Forth. Back. Forth.

Pets. Parakeets. Gerbil. Snake. Turtles. Lizards. Fish. Hermit crabs. Dogs.

Video games. Spending money at arcades. Silkworm, Arkanoid, Russian Attack. Pac Man. Systems. Nintendo. Playstation. Xbox. 360. Ghost Recon. Halo. Too many games to list.

The Towers... Never forget.

Remember...always look back.

Three weeks, ten pups, pure joy...

Desktop sized :)


Asleep in the green


It's not easy being the alpha


Eye see ewe


Kibble, bones, mammas milk... what do pups dream about?


Did somebody call me?


Bright light! BRIGHT LIGHT!


Ooooo... a new smell!


How did I get myself in this predicament?

WIIF? #33

Rachel and 'chele shared last weeks "WIIF?".

Here is What Is It Friday? #33

17 days...

Feeding a family of ten is tiring!


Being a puppy is tiring!


YAAAAAAWN!


I'm tellin' ya, that cloud looks like kibble.


Bark, eat, sleep, repeat...


My muzzle was white.


Bark or yawn?

Three quick puppy clips...





Just hangin' around...

Speaking of berries...

Jamie Dawn mentioned in my comment section that there were some berries in her yard but feared that they were poisonous. I have the same issues. I'll eat wild raspberries and blackberries... but wouldn't trust most of what I see. I guess if you see other animals eating the berries they can't be that bad... right?

Here are two desktops for you all.

Getting Closer...

It stares at me from across the yard but does not know I'm here. No movement whatsoever. Even with a breeze passing through the yard. No movement. It gets closer.


"What interesting little growths on that stem. Sort of like a thorn... but colorful."

Looking straight at me. Still, no movement. Patiently I sit. It gets closer.


"Oh, they look like colorful little aphids. It's a striped leaf hopper"

It gets closer. It extends its dark appendage and I see myself reflected in its eye. Inquisitive creature. I remain still. Does it know I am here? It gets closer. Oh, so close. I hear a deafening "ka-ching" and it recedes. Safe for now. That was close.
