Woof
Its been a while since the last post and plenty has happened since then. For one thing, there's now a wild animal running lose at my bachelor pad, eating everything in sight. Being a rather hyperactive breed of dog, and yet a mere pup, it's a voracious eater of wires of all shapes and sizes. Two extension chords, two battery chargers, radio and a pair of premium KOSS headphones later, it manages to keep me in suspense wherever it goes.
Been also waking up every morning with a loud, mournful GAH! only to stare directly at the face of the MarMutt, peering at me inquisitively. Ambling out of the room in the morning has never been harder with the mutt weighing my left foot down.
Lately it has begun to pee when its overly excited, which is practically all the time and my life has been reduced to the simple act of constant mopping.
A typical day in the life of MarMutt:
<scratch> <scratch>
<whine>
Ah. Rug. <pees>
Ah. Leg. <pounce>
Ah. Mardy leg. <scratch> <claw> <bite>
Ah. Place where the food lives. <guards refridgerator all night>
Ah. Nice clean floor. <squats> <prepares a surprise for Marduk>
Ah. Sleeping Marduk. <howl>
Ah. Rug. <pees>
Ah, the joys of parenthood. I really cherish the moments when its sleeping (usually in an obscene, totally indecent fashion), which doesn't happen that often. I don't even move a muscle. Sometimes for hours.

That MarMutt is one fast mutt. Just as I shoved the gate open, he whips past me...almost as if he was waiting to make a break for it. Didn’t reflect too well on its owner, I must say.

We work like a horse.
We eat like a pig.
We like to play chicken.
You can get someone's goat.
We can be as slippery as a snake.
We get dog tired.
We can be as quiet as a mouse.
We can be as quick as a cat.
Some of us are as strong as an ox.
People try to buffalo others.
Some are as ugly as a toad.
We can be as gentle as a lamb.
Sometimes we are as happy as a lark.
Some of us drink like a fish.
We can be as proud as a peacock.
A few of us are as hairy as a gorilla.
You can get a frog in your throat.
We can be a lone wolf.
But I'm having a whale of a time!
You have a riveting web log
and undoubtedly must have
atypical & quiescent potential
for your intended readership.
May I suggest that you do
everything in your power to
honor your encyclopedic/omniscient
Designer/Architect as well
as your revering audience.
As soon as we acknowledge
this Supreme Designer/Architect,
Who has erected the beauteous
fabric of the universe, our minds
must necessarily be ravished with
wonder at this infinate goodness,
wisdom and power.
Please remember to never
restrict anyone's opportunities
for ascertaining uninterrupted
existence for their quintessence.
There is a time for everything,
a season for every activity
under heaven. A time to be
born and a time to die. A
time to plant and a time to
harvest. A time to kill and
a time to heal. A time to
tear down and a time to
rebuild. A time to cry and
a time to laugh. A time to
grieve and a time to dance.
A time to scatter stones
and a time to gather stones.
A time to embrace and a
time to turn away. A time to
search and a time to lose.
A time to keep and a time to
throw away. A time to tear
and a time to mend. A time
to be quiet and a time to
speak up. A time to love
and a time to hate. A time
for war and a time for peace.
Best wishes for continued ascendancy,
Dr. Whoami
P.S. One thing of which I am sure is
that the common culture of my youth
is gone for good. It was hollowed out
by the rise of ethnic "identity politics,"
then splintered beyond hope of repair
by the emergence of the web-based
technologies that so maximized and
facilitated cultural choice as to make
the broad-based offerings of the old
mass media look bland and unchallenging
by comparison."
