Dude. You don't tie up the monkey. That's just not right.
My puppy has a length of rope that he plays with. Usually we play tug, but sometimes he just drags the rope around by himself. So I got up to go get myself another beer, and he's pulling the rope around, and not looking any too enthused, so I grabbed his stuffed monkey and tied it to the end of the rope, so he could drag both around. Not sure why I thought this might be a good idea, but it for damn sure wasn't. He just dropped his end of the rope, sat back on his haunches and looked at me like, "what the fuck are you doin' tying up the monkey? Who the hell do you think you are?" And then he walked off into the other room, and I came in here to post this. Oh, but I got my beer first. Weird.

4. screw a pc!
I like my kiddie soccer leagues to have winner and losers, and my dog toys to be virtually indistinguishable from marital aids!

you lack training. That's OK. I'm sure he'll whip you into shape in no time. That is assuming you ARE trainable

12. The monkey had to be untied,
else Stangle was gonna wedge himself behind the toilet and pout.

And whaddaya need pictures of a tied-up monkey for anyway? Have you forgotten the foursome plans with GOPisEvil and Ms. Jimmy? We practically have a tee time set.

:D

10. Is Althea tolerating the little guy any better?
She kinda looks like she hates him in that pic.

11. Thea's very proud of her bully boy.
Even though there's technically no blood between 'em. They play now, which is nice. See - photo evidence:



And that look you're referring to is Althea's "please put the damned camera away already, everybody knows I'm beautiful" pose.

;-)

in this pic. I think you're in deep denial.

14. You think we're Jerry Springer candidates, don't you?
Seriously - Thea could've eaten Stangle for breffus pretty much anytime over the past 4 weeks if she wanted to. She loves her puppy boy! Either that, or she's playing nice, 'cause she knows he's gonna be twice her size in another coupla months.

You should ask JimmyJazz about the petsmart in her town that shares warehouse space with the, erm, "adult toystore."

32. You'd have needed a slightly higher score.
But not to worry. I'll waive the supervision requirement on the condition that the toychest in the master bedroom closet remains off limits. ;-)

34. As much as I love Kerouac and his lovely hiakus (and I see
that he has competition with GiE), I'm just not feeling that creative this evening. I am, however, willing to share this lovely Pinot Grigio I've been embibing - care to join me!

Yes, I changed my name - it is much less obvious than the numeric screen name - I am enjoying it. ;)

You like a man with some Jamaican-style booty, eh?

41. He's actually remarkably easy to entertain.
At 11 weeks, he's content to see how far he can cram himself into tight spaces, or how much water he can drink before he just starts spontaneously peeing right there at the water bowl, while still drinking.
