  • There’s the smell of dogs, then there’s the smell of infrequently bathed dogs.

    Cats and dogs are very much the same in that non-owners usually can walk into an owner’s house and know there’s a cat or dog there. It’s, not necessarily a bad smell, buts there.

    The same way that I can tell if a specific coworker was hoteling in the office. She gets her perfume from Claire’s (yes, the same strawberry-bliss or whatever it’s called from middle school…).

    Infrequently bathed dogs, however is another story.

    Can you imagine how embarrassing it would be if the secret service allowed him to serve the general public?

    I mean, just off the top of my head ways that could go wrong:

    • car bomb.
    • sawed off shotgun
    • normal shotgun in grandma’s minivan
    • any assortment of pistols, including grampa’s .45 snubby.
    • chemical attack (acid. Base. In a mug. Or weed spraying jug.)
    • special mention to Novichok
    • biologic (similar delivery.)
    • nuclear. (Special mention to Russian polonium.)

    This is all in addition to the risk that trump causes a grease fire (too bad it didn’t happen….)




  • So I have a theory that defines “best dog” as being related to proximity. Both, physical, literal proximity and more figurative terms.

    All Snickers wanted, was to be with you. Touching was best. Not much, mind. She’d settle for sitting against your leg, or a head against your knee, maybe a hand scratching the ears.

    Was one of the best dogs of all time. Super chill.


  • Growing up, we had Snickers. She was a Goldie-something, and hands down one of the best dogs ever.

    (She had coloration similar to a Rottweiler- back body, with brown eyebrows and brown belly, but otherwise had hair and body conformation like a typical Goldie.)

    In any case; when she was young, she loved to attack nature docs on the TV. Or any animal on the TV, to the extent that you could see scratched on the glass after it was turned off. (The scratches were likely in a laminate layer or something. But they were there and they were permanent.)
