COOL CATS, BUT NO CRADLE

Taking a walk last evening we passed the Communities Foundation of West Palm where a flock of cats, were chilling! Yes, yes, I know cats don't flock, but I never go with convention, so if I want to have the flock, so be it.
You know that song about cats in a cradle and silver spoons? Well, these kitties are bad-ass, and don't need no stinking cradle. Have no idea how they feel 'bout silver spoons and the man in the moon.

I love their attitudes, they don't give a cat-paw WHO you are-just don't get into their bizz. Oh, yes-I love these kids!!

FASHION WEEK DOGGIE STYLE

New York Fashion Week has all those skinny mannequins flouncing down all sorts of runways while celebs and hundreds of Hangers-On wearing black, sit and stare at what they won't be wearing in the near future.

Well, the celebs will be wearing the crap, but the random HO's (hangers on, get your mind out of the...nah, stay there) will be making selections at Marshalls's clearance racks, which I love!

A runway is a runway, but wouldn't you like to see one of those lanky and sullen-faced coathangers stop mid-strut and yank on the couture with their teeth...just like this little guy.

Now, THAT would be a fashion week worthy of all the hype!

THE TEDDY HAS A BIRTHDAY

Happy birthday, Teddy!!
You have a beautiful mom in Tina!

PUPPY HALO OVER PETCO WITHOUT RECEIPT

Don't you just hate it when you goof up a Halo? Yeah, me too.
I'm a regular at the Petco on Military here in West Palm Beach. I'm not such a fan of PetSmart, but mostly because Petco is the only place that carries the Halo brand of pet food I get for my girl, Reggie.

Now, you know how when you go to Target to exchange something, they know EVERYTHING about you and your family simply by a swipe of your credit card? Yeah, it's both cool and frightening, huh?

So, when I realized I had purchased one bag of adult Halo and one bag of puppy Halo I groaned, put it aside and promptly lost the receipt and tossed the bag into the recycle chute with all the other plastic products.

Today I hit Petco without a bag or receipt, but was I concerned? Not in the least. Every time I go to that place there is this sweet, nature-type girl who chats with me about pets and it's just as happy as some damn dog food commercial with talking dogs.

Where in holy hell was she today? You know, the ONE employee who would recognize me! Gone and in her place was a serious-as-can-be type. I detected a near frown forming on her face as she looked at the bag of puppy chow like it was hazardous material while inquiring (without eye-contact) if I had my receipt. Hearing me reply in the negative she asked if the bag had been opened. Again, I replied in the negative. She zipped the top and to my surprise the damn bag had been opened...do NOT ask me me how.

At this point my guilt level and heart rate were rising and all I wanted to do was exchange a bag of food and pay the difference, if there was a difference. I felt like an idiot and started to leave the store and order the food online (which is probably going to happen).

To make this scene even better was the random woman fingering leaflets on the bulletin board and listening to this exchange with what appeared to be abandon.

With a sigh and a stern tone, Serious Sally (I made that up) told me to go get what I needed and I did.

Lightbulb went off over my head and upon arrival back at check-point-sally, I said she could check my credit cards to verify the prior purchase (remember, like Target). With another sigh and no eye contact, she flatly said they could NOT do that.

I paid, she left my two bags sitting on the counter without bagging them and looked in eager anticipation toward the person behind me.

As I had other purchases in the car, ride an elevator 17 floors, I told her I would like a bag and proceeded to put one Halo into a plastic bag. At this point she was so totally done with my presence she asked, curtly, if I needed another bag. I said no, left and then returned to invite her read this blog and she looked confused as can be.

Hope this chick finds her smile or another job!

Not everyone is a crook trying to scam a store through a Halo dog good purchase. Just sayin'.

DOGS LOUNGE AGAINST THE RULES

Just back from giving The Reg a stretch on the Pool Deck.

Every day there is this little dog, looks like a red pom or something, lounging with its owner on the furniture (insert alarm sound here).

Against the house rules for dogs to be on the furniture. I get that rule and it doesn't bother me to keep mine off the orange cushions.

However, MUCH more offensive to me than dogs on chairs?

1. People saving chairs when they are gone from the pool area for HOURS.

2. Having to cast my gaze upon the asses, plus more, hanging out of thong bikinis. I don't care how gorgeous you are...that ain't a pretty sight.

Watching dogs swim is MUCH easier on the eyeballs!

WHY, WHY, WHY must they hang it out in the dog area? Can't avoid seeing it, no matter how hard you may try.

Please, please, please can't they spread-eagle it on the other side of the pool area? WAY LESS TRAFFIC.

At the very least, point your crotch toward the wall and I won't know if you've had your Brazilian shave lately or not and that would be such a good thing!!

PIANO AND LOUNGE GAL

Salud, Kids!

There is nothing like a piano to set the mood, right? Yep. Love me a piano. Too bad I can't play a note, but who cares, it is all about the look.


Lounging around Oceania's newest ship, Marina, is relaxing. The christening was Saturday and we were on hand for the festivities. Who cares about the champagne breakage? Get me to the fun stuff.

DOG ABUSE AT THE SMOKING HANDS OF AN ASS

I was looking for funny (satirical) videos regarding dogs smoking. Cartoons, that sort of thing, to go hand-in-hand with the rule about people in our building smoking in the dog-area. I ran across this one and I am seriously outraged.This beautiful and sweet Cavalier being subjected to such a dumb-ass, son-of-a-bitch!!! I am so angry, but I want to cry as well.

At times like this I truly want to slap the holy hell out of a person, AND hold them down and do something mean to them and I am totally against mean-spirited behavior.

I am almost too angry to type!!!

Please, please let this dog run away. Far, far away and bring appropriate karma to this jerk-off, scumbag, douchebag, I can't even think of enough names to call this asshole.

BENNETT TAKES A SMOKE BREAK

HAVE A SMOKE AND WATCH DOGS PEE

Our building has degreed that smoking be confined to the 'dog area' on the pool deck. Well, that and the Moonlight Theater. Whatever.

You've heard of a Coke and a Smile...how 'bout a smoke and a dog pee? YEAH!!

So, let me get this straight...it is fine 'n dandy to inhale second-hand smoke while you are trying to get your dog to do their biz!!

Okay, sounds about right.

VIP FOR R-E-G

Salud, Kids! Folks are shivering and shaking and being snowed in all around the country and it is a mess. There are worries about road conditions, power outtages and cabin fever. Over 13,000 flights have been cancelled, thus far. Whew, it is stress from top to bottom of the U.S.
For the Reg, sitting here getting her leash snapped on, it was time to shiver and shake as she was zipped into a new place for doggie daycare.

Very Important Paws is a place where the dogs hang out with each other and run around in circles or something.

Honestly, we were probably more nervous leaving her at a new place and I'm sure she got into the spirit of it all the moment she hit the playroom.

Most fun was watching her on the monitor hanging behind the counter when I arrived to pick her up. She looked so cute mixing it up with those other mutts.

See ya 'round the beaches!

THE KING OF CRYING DOGS

That football game is on the horizon. You know the one. THE one. Yes, THAT ONE!!

Watching grass grow or sitting in the lobby of our building counting the number of snobs and arrogant asses sashaying hither and yon would be more fascinating to me and that's just wrong.

People bather on about the great commercials making it worth the watch and blah, blah, blah. Whatever.

I don't redily agree with such random opinions, but it is true you can always count on canines to bring it, to commercials that is and this little clip proves my point.



If you've seen it, too bad, you've seen it again, chumps!

One more thing...the lobby sashaying people really need to look around and become simple human beings again. Oh, I love sashaying, as a rule. But, if you keep your nose too high in the air, like the dog in this commercial, you never know what you might crash into!!

See ya 'round the beaches!
