Weekend Open Comments 9/14

This goes to “Spock,” our dog, who thinks all toys are called giraffe’s.

    This really deserves some explanation. When I got Spock, my daughter was about 16. She loved to play with him. She is also the one who gave him his “call name,” due to his pointed ears, like the Vulcan on Star Trek.

    I always give the dogs their “real” names, after the call name. Spock’s “real name” is “Johann Sebastian Spock.”

    But I digress.

    When she’d play fetch with him, she used a stuffed giraffe toy as the fetch object. She’d constantly tell him to “Go get the Giraffe.”

    Dogs normally only really associate commands with the last syllable or two, which is why you should say “Down” instead of “Lay,” which might confuse the dog with “Stay.”

    So, “Fetch” became “Giraffe,” and now, all toys are fetch items… “Giraffe, Spock! Giraffe!” now means “Fetch, Spock! Fetch!”

    And he’s very cute doing it. They say dogs are like their owners, after all. Spock, is also very humble, as well.

    For all the problems in our world right now at this minute all seems good. I just transported the 50 gallons of water for the aquariums, 10 x 5 gallon containers, I have just opened my first bottle for the evening of St. Arnold’s Elissa, and best of all my 11 year old son is in the back yard singing his heart out, he is singing Kashmir from Led Zeppelin. No rap crap in his brain, I must be doing something right with that boy!

    God Bless America!

    Best pet names I ever had…

    Catastrophe the cat who was true to its’ name.
    Damnitt the bird…Just so I could yell, “Shut up Damnitt!”
    Mr. Evil the cat who looked like Hitler (if Hitler was a cat).
    Serenity the dog who was any thing but serene. Most people just called her the mean psycho dog.

    My most recent dogs, with the exception of Spock, have been Mikhail Gorbadog and Beowulf Amadeus Einstein.

    Their call names were “Mickey” and “Wulfie,” respectively.

    My two adorable grandpups are named Elvis and Memphis. They each weigh around 5 pounds. My daughter had a psycho cat named Presley but she had to put him down.

    Neo,
    It is quite alright to say. I think most everyone here knows that Wino and I are getting married. Yes, Neo and I went shopping for my wedding dress. :)

    Your comment made me think of the scene where Spock is behind the glass in the radiation room, when Kirk looks at him from the other side of the glass, and Spock asked him if the ship was out of danger. I can see Spock the dog running for the giraffe and asking is the giraffe out of danger? ROFLMAO.

    Stormy Had a cat when we married. Solid black male named Spot. He definitely was a spot anywhere he was. When someone would ask his name, the next question invariably was “Excuse me, what is his name again?”
