More Expectation vs. Reality

I was checking out the World Wide Webosphere for some information regarding canine behavior when I stumbled across this pic.

I immediately recognized that toy chicken as very similar to the one our puppy picked out himself at the pet store. My expectation was that our puppy would spend many good times romping with that chicken like the dog is doing in the pic above.

Instead …

Preventing Covid is Oozy

I should warn you, this is going to be a long post. Wait, wait, don’t click away. It’ll be long, but with lots of pictures including one of our new puppy dog. Whew, I think I saved a few of you from ditching me and this post.

I rarely do a post like this one. It’ll be chock full ‘o pics from the television, or if you’re in the UK, the telly. I usually reason that if you wanted to see the program, you would have watched it yourself, and you don’t need to see me regurgitate a program that you chose not to watch. Gee, I may not be doing a good job of selling this post. Did I mention our new puppy’s pic is coming?

The show I watched was The Rachel Maddow Show. Some folks call her the liberal version of Tucker Carlson or Sean Hannity. I call her a smarty-pants who uses actual verifiable facts rather than conjecture, fear-mongering, and lies, also known as the staples of those named Fox News hosts.

Anyway, she was trying to help people again last night. Specifically, she warned against these practices …

Those are very bad ideas. I don’t have much experience with iodine, but I have extensive experience with hydrogen peroxide. As a self-licensed dermatist, I use a hydrogen peroxide solution to chemically burn seborrheic keratosis spots off myself. This is the result of one such session on my forehead.

It’s Not Nice to Confuse a Puppy

As owners of a new puppy, we are trying to teach him some things like sit, stay, walk on a leash, and to stop stealing our shoes, the smellier the better. But look how sad he is after being confused by one of his toys.

He was chewing on his Chewbacca toy yesterday. Hey, why is it that when people mention Chewbacca, they often say, “Chewbacca from Star Wars?” Has there ever been a Chewbacca from anywhere else? It’s Chewbacca. Period.

Anyway, our little puppy was chewing on his Chewy when this happened …

A Holiday Edition of … Am I a Bad Guy?

I posted his holiday meme over 3 years ago. I created the meme myself. I find it really funny. Many do not. Many were offended by it. The odds are that it will offend you. I even got death threats, although they were all from my wife. Am I a bad guy for liking it?

Donald Trump is my Shower Buddy

Before we get to Trump & I showering together, I am pleased to report that we have somehow survived our first week with our new puppy named Lola, no thanks to Lola. She’s an incredible amount of work, but she is awfully cute …

Lola had a little something to do with that shower I took with Trump.

Dog of a Name for Name of a Dog

We’re getting a puppy. Ready? 1 … 2 … 3 … awwwww.

It is a standard poodle. I wanted a sub-standard poodle since I thought that would be less expensive, but I lost that battle.

Anyway, now comes the battle over the name.
