Husky Logo #28

.



I'm sorry I missed it! Monday, Sept 25, 2006 was Husky Spirit Day at Portage Northern High School in Portage, Michigan. So, today I'm featuring them.

I even found their Fight Song:

Go Portage Northern,
go you Huskies go

We are ever loyal,
as we go to meet the foe

Rah Rah Rah!

Win Northern Huskies,
victory is our aim

Go brown and white team,
show them our fight team

We are going to win this game


Just think about it! They are a brown & white Husky team and I am a brown & white Husky!

Woo Woo Woo!

Re-Enactment

.

So last night my Human woke up at about 2:56am. She got up and went to "visit" the ceramic refillable drinking bowl in the white tiled room. When she returned, she found me nibbling on the comforter she was sleeping under. I grumbled at her when she tried to remove it from my mouth, but I let her take it back.

Of course I couldn't get a picture of me doing this, so I got Fargo to stand in for me in the re-enactment:

Busy, Busy

.

We've been busy lately and our schedules are all messed up. That's why I've been posting in the evenings.

Roo Roo wants me to tell you that she successfully destroyed the fitted sheet and mattress pad on my Human's bed. We're all proud of her!

There have been a lot of cats and other small animals running around outside, so we have to go outside from time to time to tell them that they're being stupid.

I look like I'm the same size as Lex in this picture, but really he is about twice my size.

Again With The Searching!

.

I found a search term that someone used that I just couldn't NOT mention: siberian husky butt face. If brought the human to my April 3, 2006 blog entry.

This is the corresponding photo:



I really wonder what this searcher was looking for!

I Got Nothin'...

.

I wanted to talk about a product my Human found in the grocery store, but I can't find any information on it by googling...What is this mysterious product? Philadelphia® Cream Cheese Cheesecake Mix! It's sold in tubs the size of a normal Cool-Whip tub. It's more proof that humans have a desire to be lard asses.

My Human and her friend Large Oh think that if the KFC® company (aka Kentucky Fried Chicken®) sold deep fried chicken skin, they'd make even more money. No doubt they are correct!

So, because I don't have a picture of the cheesecake product, I'll subsitute a picture of Lex's upside down head. He's a lard ass, so a good substitute. My Human likes to say that both she and Lex gained weight after he was neutered.

Searching...

.

It's time once again for me to mention some of the strange search words that have directed people to my blog...


The two top search terms that bring people to my site are Lex Luthor and 2 Stupid Dogs.

People often are looking for information on husky destruction. As I once mentioned, I'm not much of a destructive Sibe, but I do have my moments. Today's photo was taken on Friday. We had a big wind storm that knocked limbs and acorns out of the trees. I brought some limbs and leaves inside to gnaw on at my leasure.

Someone was searching for information on siberian husky smell bad. Excuse you! I don't smell bad at all. UNLIKE SOME STUPID HUMANS!!! What is it with humans and there stupid antiperspirant/deodorant?!

Husky Logo #27

.

I really like this logo that my good friend Dakota suggested! Please allow me to introduce you to the Husky of Hillcrest Elementary School in Frederick, Maryland. I like everything about this logo: the tongue, the snow nose, the eyes! EVERYTHING!

Those lucky youngster students of Hillcrest don't have school on Monday. But I'm going to try to sneak over there on Thursday for lunch. They're getting OVEN BAKED SHRIMP POPPERS!! In the words of that stupid Ray-Ray, "Yum-O!" I should be able to run over there from Missouri on Thursday without my Human noticing.

Fable?

.

A co-worker of my Human told her a story today about a wealthy man in our town who has 12 huskies (most of them female). They host weekly husky-get-togethers at his house. My Human was told that the rich guy will pick up the huskies in his fancy car, will then seat belt them securely in the car, and chauffer them to the party. The rich guy buys lots of treats at the gourmet dog treat store, too. My Human is going to try to get us invited to this extravaganza of huskiness!

But then again, maybe it's just a myth...

Till then, here's the 6 of us for those of you who haven't seen this photo. Yeah, I know it's difficult to see us all, but you try getting 6 huskies to stay put!

Trade Mark

.

I'm working on a scheme to raise some money. Do you think that I could declare the word "stupid" to be my property? I'm trying to figure out a way that anytime any human uses this word I would get some money. I'd let animals continue to use it for free. Just not humans.

I figured that since Donald Trump tried to claim the expression "you're fired" as his property that "stupid" could be mine.

I Am The T-Wolf!

.

Charlie, the Big Dog refered to me as "T-Wolf" in a comment in someone's blog. I LOVE THIS NAME! T-WOLF! T-WOLF! T-WOLF! T-WOLF! T-WOLF! T-WOLF!

In other news...It dipped down into the 30 degree Fahrenheit region last night. Now this weather is more like it!

LET IT SNOW! LET IT SNOW! LET IT SNOW!

I'm wound up this morning!



Please note that this photo was not taken today. I am happily anticipating this moment.

Tagasaurus

.

So I've been tagged by Ivy, Althea, and Raisa. I have to list 5 things that make a good doggie friend. Here we go...

1. A good doggie friend will always rough house.

2. A good doggie friend will allow others to clean his ears.

3. A good doggie friend will not try to take your toilet paper tube when you are chewing on it.

4. A good doggie friend will let you get attention from your human friend when you need it.

5. A good doggie friend will have a blog.

I'm tagging my room mates: Lex, Misha, Fargo, Roo Roo, & Niki. They'll update their blogs when they have time to.

Humans!

.

I think it's stupid when humans declare that their dog "thinks he's a human." AS IF!!!!! Here's a list of things about humans that I'm not jealous of:

1. They have to do certain things on certains days and times. Work week? What the %#%@ is that?!

2. They wear clothes and shoes.

3. They don't like to smell things like we do.

4. They have stupid, petty rules about things. "Don't get on the couch!" "Don't chew on that!" "No, don't pee on there!"

5. They pee in the refillable drinking bowl in that small, tiled room.

6. They spend too much time blabbling on that stupid phone thing.

7. They like to think they are in control.

8. They run a lot slower than we do.


Of course I could go on, but unlike humans, I know when to stop.

This cartoon (Apartment 3-G) shows several of these flaws:



I think I have improved it with these changes:

Husky Logo #26

.

Today I'm wagging my tail for the Huskies of Ashe County High School in West Jefferson, NC.

I'm hoping that my Human buys be a big letter "A" to jump through. Or any other letter with a hole in it, for that matter.

I wanted to find out how their football team is doing, but I wasn't successful. I did find the radio station that broadcasts the Huskies' games. Fargo and Roo Roo were wondering if the "Voice of the Huskies" might need a couple additional vocal huskies in their pack.

Doggie Bag

.


I was thinking about doggie bags today. Why are they called doggie bags? My Human never shares. She's very selfish!

Pool No More

.

Roo Roo wants you to take a peak at her blog today. She has some pictures of herself with a Bur Acorn.

My Human took the pool away. She babbled something about 50 degree nights...I think that's a really stupid excuse. So here's a picture of me in the pool at night:

Big Tree

.

We have a big Bur Oak tree that is in front of our porch. Roo Roo loves bringing the big acorns and crunking them up and leaving remnants on the couches, bed, and floor. You should hear the noise that my Human makes when she accidentally steps on one. It's most effective when it's in the night and she can't see them!

Besides being fun to have humans step on, they make a really loud noise when they land on the roof.

Lex Causes Thunder!

.

I discovered yesterday that thunder is Lex's fault!!! How do I know this? I was just laying around, keeping my eye on Lex and it thundered! The sound came from his direction, so it had to be his fault. I stood up to growl at him and let him know that I found this very inappropriate.

Of course my stupid Human didn't like this. She never likes it when I point out that Lex is being stupid. So I promptly was escorted to my box.

Learning the Ropes

.

When I was just a little guy, Fargo taught me a lot of things. He would carefully explain what I needed to know to be a Siberian Husky.



And he would play games with me, too.

Turbo Thoughts

.

I was thinking about stuff today while I was waiting for my Human to return with the pastries.

Why aren't there any car makes or models named after dogs? Seriously (siriusly) why not!? A bunch of other stupid animals have car types: Impalas, cougars, jaguars, skylark, rabbits... And they name cars after stupid nonsense words: Integra, Reatta, Escalade...IT'S GOTTA BE A CONSPIRACY!!!!

How many dogs do you see riding around in a car? LOTS!!! How many thunderbirds are riding in cars? NONE!!!

So if we had a car named after Siberian huskies, what type would it be? I'm inclined to go with the Subaru Outback. They're rugged, outdoorsy, not super big or super small. What do you guys think? Please post your suggestions.

H is for Huskies!!! Today I'm visiting the website of the Hamilton High School Huskies of Chandler, Arizona.

Wooo oooo Hamilton Huskies!!!

Bye Bye Famous Barr

.



Way back a long time ago (today), there used to be a chain of department stores in the St Louis, MO area called Famous Barr. Of course the St Louisans call it "Famous and Barr," but they're always saying stupid things like "fark" for "fork" and "sharts" for "shorts." And when they aren't saying that, they're always asking what high school you went to. (And if you don't believe me, ask my Human's friend Large Oh.)

Well, Famous Barr and a bunch of other stores like Marshall Fields (Chicago), are becoming Macy's. (Stupid humans always subsuming things!!!) I don't know anything really about Macy's, but I hate balloons!!! Does this mean that we will all have to change our names to "Macy's?" Or maybe "Wal-mart?"

I've never been in our local Famous Barr. My Human refuses to claim that I'm a service dog!

New Husky Bloggers!

.

Visit the Army of Four! I've encouraged them to join the Husky Bloggers ring & Dogs with Blogs. I told them that all the cool huskies do that.

News from Kansas

.

I received an e-mail from my pal Dave yesterday:

Dear Tubey,

I sent the attached picture to K and Kali in Mexico City. Their mom recognized what an astonishing find we made, and thought we should let someone important know. I immediately thought of you!

Yeah...... there we were, minding our own business (and DOING some business) out on a big walk yesterday, when what to my wondering eyes did appear???!!?? The world's largest spool of thread! Stormy found one, too! It was INCREDIBLE! We had to get mom to take our pictures - I even sent them to the quilt group! They thought it was cool and wondered how mom was going to thread it through her Bernina? (Wooing out loud!)

We left them there. Who knows? Maybe they belong to a GIANT who's gonna want them back!

Thought you'd want to know!

Dave

Raging Spiegels

.

My Human had a friend who thought there was a breed of dog called a "Raging Spiegel." We're pretty certain that Peggy was actually talking about Springer Spaniel Rage Syndrome.

I get worked up about various things. Like when things are stupid. And a lot of things are stupid.

I think that I'm going to write a book. I'm going to try to get a government grant to write this book. But I need some help...

Which book should I write?

Turbo's Really Small Book of Non-Stupid Things

Cooler

.

The weather is definitely getting better. Cooler days and cooler nights are visiting. But, as my nephew Eddie pointed out, it's darker later in the morning now. My Human has been squawking about putting our pool away for the season, but she is still too lazy to do it. Granted, we've not been using it as much...BUT STILL!!! I've been hoping for an ice rink this winter.

The fleas have stopped being a pest to us. (Thanks Frontline!)

That stupid Lex missed where he was peeing and squirted into the house. Since then we've been peeing inside the doorway. My Human got out the cleaning stuff this morning and cleaned that area pretty thoroughly. I tried to tell her that I didn't have a problem with the way it had been smelling, but she didn't listen to me!

Fargo Joke

Husky Logo #24

.

Today I'm waving my paw towards Kiska, the mascot of Dieruff High School in Allentown, PA.

According to their website:

Dieruff's mascot, the Husky, was named Kiska in 1959 in order to honor the dog and ten men of the American Naval Weather Detachment who were captured by the Japanese on Kiska Island in 1942. Today, Kiska IV is eight years old and reside with retired instructors from DHS. At the May 2005 Kiska Dance, student raised money in order to care for a feed Kiska this year. The dog makes appearances at every important high school event or activity, and is much loved by Dieruff students, past and present.


And, the huskies of Adopt-A-Husky have stopped by this school to give their support! The students of this school give a lot of help to Adopt A Husky.

(Some of the students at my Human's alma mater helped save some stupid tigers. They should have been helping the huskies, too!)
