Puppy Love...


So, here's a picture of my two favorite pups. The one on top is Brit and the one on the bottom (looking half-dead) is Sasha. They're vizslas! I love vizslas. Had two growing up... Fritz (who died of cancer in 1985 at three years old) and Whiskey (who died of old age in 1996). I'm looking forward to getting a house with Ms. Humble and getting me a vizsla. I wanna name him Premysl (pronounced: Preh-mish-elle). I got the name from the Austro-Hungary history class I took at Colorado State (I know... snore!). Wenceslas Premysl is the patron saint of the Czech Republic and was one of the first enlightened despots. This same despot was also the inspiration for the Christmas Carol "Good King Wenceslas."

While I have Prague on my mind... if you don't like your government, throw them out the window on to a huge stinkin' pile of CRAP! Ha, ha, ha!!! This event perhaps rates as one of my favorite in history.

Anyhoo, those are my sister's vizslas... I was visiting her over the Fourth of July holiday. It's nice to get out of the Mormon stronghold every once in a while and get normal-strength beer!

I was very happy with my Fourth of July trip. My brother-in-law took me on a couple of good mountain bike rides.... effectively whipping my ass in to A LOT better shape. I finally figured out why I got into mountain biking. Took long enough but now it doesn't kick my ass anymore!

Well, I haven't seen anything worthy of a WTF nod this week, sadly. But, it is only Wednesday. And, I am heading to Vegas for my best friend's bachelor party. To quote Vince Vaughn in "Swingers"... "Vegas, Baby! Vegas!" I'm sure Vegas will be full of WTF's? In fact, I know it is. The fact that I'm making my fourth trip there this year is a WTF moment in and of itself.

Well, I'm gonna log off here... but before I off.. I'd like to welcome my mom to the blog portion of the information superhighway. Her slice of internet is right here!

PS - if my mom is a DAR-ling.... does that make me a SAR-ling? Methinks that's a question without an answer like, "What's the sound of one hand clapping?"

How perceptive you are. You most certainly are a SAR-ling (Sons of the American Revolution).
