Loud roar

No the Republican debates are not in Michigan. That loud roar is not Rick Perry trying to belch "see the USA in my Chevrolet" with union workers.   Instead, the Detroit Lions are 4-0, meaningless to a dog, just like the best song belch doesn't determine the presidency, although maybe it could be a debate tie-breaker.

No post

There is no post-season for dogs. Every dog day is simply a day to be a dog. Baseball has a post-season. Dogs lift a leg salute to a post. One marks the crowning of a champion.  The other mimics a three-year old saying it's favorite word - "mine."

Finny's song

To no particular tune:

Finny, Finny, Finny is my little white dog.
He lives with us and we bought him fair and square from a man with red pants.


After modeling the squirrel costume, Finnegan took out his spite, as some dogs do, by leaving a small pile of Winnie the Pooh on the floor, by the TV.  Only 26 days until Halloween.  No acorns were harmed in this photo session.

Dogs enjoy costumes a lot less than people.  Its a polar-opposite situation.  Dogs go around unclothed, people dress.  Costumes are the reverse for dogs and a suspension of clothed reality for people.

Pierce it

Another in a limitless series of items that are people-driven products and have no uses to dogs:  #41 - Earrings!  Hoops and posts are equally meaningless to the pups.

String fun

First there was silly, then it met string, add a can and nozzle and let joy commence: Silly String. The product that's fun to use and miserable to clean-up. Dogs can't play with Silly String - no opposable thumbs, but they can find hours of enjoyment ripping a cord into string, then strands, then saliva on threads.  Yum.

No expressions

It goes with saying that the expression it goes without saying must be said in order to be expressed. Dogs just bark. They don't believe in the preface. A dog will never utter something obvious and tag on, it goes without saying. Actually it doesn't.

Line loud

Dogs know not to speak loudly while in line at Wendy's. Same can't be said of people, inside calm voices while standing 17 inches away from hungry masses wanting a#5.
