Listen to the groundhog

March 2, 2009

I love Groundhog’s Day. It is a silly holiday that you can just hype up and people giggle at.
When reading a post from Chris Brogan today, along with my Wall Street Journal, The Waterboy and a healthy dose of Morning Joe, I’ve come to a conclusion about this economic mess. The economy prognosticators have [...]

What would you do if you had $1 million dollars?

December 10, 2008

Dear President-elect Barack Obama;
I am a small business owner. I do quite well for myself as I am in a knowledge-based business servicing the youth sporting market and the retail services industries. I also dabble a bit in coffee and Web 2.0 consulting.
I was running some numbers this afternoon on the bail-out plans that [...]

Disappearing males?

November 25, 2008

This is an interesting video and it appears as if males are disappearing. The video concludes that that is is becasue of the chemicals we’re producing, but as a male of the canine species, I’d like to posit another theory:
Mommybloggers
Ok, not specifically mommybloggers, but everything they represent. The mommies have all bonded into this huge [...]

Wow, win the presidential election, promise your kids on national television in front of 71 million viewers that they will get a new puppy and the press EXPLODES with puppy dog stories.

The election is not about race

November 5, 2008

Sure, Barack Obama is African-American and yes, he is the first black president of the United States of America and that is historic. But, he is also a really smart man who knows how to inspire greatness in others and instill dreams that people act on instead of just wishing and praying.
Obama was elected because [...]

Eat dessert first

July 14, 2008

I read the Wall Street Journal. I have since I was a young puppy when I got my first job at Dog Pound, Inc. While my peers always flipped to the Money sections, checked the stock quotes, etc., the first section I read was MarketPlace. This is where all the “life” bits happened which drove [...]

Celebrate Arbor Day and celebrate the future

April 24, 2008

I was really bored in the van today as we did a bunch of errands, so I turned the radio up a little louder to listen to the commentary on Arbor Day. Tress are really, really important to us dogs because you never know when you won’t be able to find the next fire plug.
Anyway, [...]

Clinging to my walks

April 18, 2008

I recently had the opportunity to take a ride through Red State America along Hwy 35 through southern Ohio, West Virginia and onto Interstate 64. The ride was a bit odd as I emerged from Dayton, the rich, white, mall-laden Beavercreek into the hills, holler and trailer-park homes that lined 35 for miles upon miles.
I [...]

Age

April 12, 2008

In June, I will be 8 years old, which in human years makes me about 56. I am becoming a dog of “a certain age.”
My most favorite thing to do is to curl up naked at the foot of the couch, with my owner’s toes against my tummy, my head on his leg, staring into [...]

Political endorsements from Rufus

February 5, 2008

Rufus is pretty apolitical, but this election year, he has expressed some opinions on our walks. On the one hand, he is a black dog and feels pressure from CNN, Fox and all the other news people to support Obama. On the other hand, he is a dog and Hillary sometimes speaks in frequencies that [...]

Where have we been?

March 5, 2006

It has been AGES since we blogged, so our loyal fans are probably wondering where we have been. We are still here, doing three walks a day.
It has been a couple of high-travel months for me, and the January panic set in rather deeply this year, so there has not been that much time to [...]

Proof of the existence of God

December 16, 2005

Ok, I now have proof of the existence of God.. and the answer to all my prayers is an emphatic “hell, no!”
I was walking our favorite puppy along the snow covered streets of Katy Lane when I passed underneath a power line, packed with snow. A big clump came down on my head and [...]
