Food Hound
WOOF!
WOOF! WOOF! WOOF! WOOF! WOOF! WOOF! WOOF! WOOF!
Rough ("ruff") translation:
Where's my treat?
You forgot to say "hello" again (and you wonder why I
bark, sheesh!)
Oh, and I am warning you that I will be
violating your airspace in a few moments. Please take necessary
precautions.
Bogie's Basset Bailout Plan
Clearly, Basset Hounds just have plain more common sense than humans. Anything
can be fixed with a good meal, some good wine and a nice long nap. Bogart wants
Ben and Hank to know that he is available as a consultant but his contract will
include demands for
CHEESE.
Hmmm...better than some of the demands we've seen recently. And Bogart does have
a Master of Economics in Food Storage. His philosophy in preparing for the
future is dig a hole, bury a bone. Good thinking, Bogart! Here's Bogart's Ten
Point Basset Bailout Plan....
1. Eat some lamb chops. Better decisions are made on a full stomach.
2. Take a nap. Signatures are easier to get while the players are snoozing. Just
an accomplice with a pen in hand and a gentle nuzzle from a Basset Hound can get
a signature for anything, including a $700B loan.
3. Bogart has a stock tip for everybody: buy HP. This is going to take A LOT of
ink.
4. The road to energy independence involves BoGAS. Bogart feels it is his civic
duty to help contribute to the need for 'natural' gas. Plus, his fuel is
biodynamic and organic. He's a Green Dog. Ahem.
5. In order to achieve #4,
CHEESE
is clearly needed. Please plate up the cheese!!
6. Hounds know how to put out fires. It just requires a little leg lifting. One
Fire Dog with Long Ears coming up!
7. Buy Duct Tape. It's a cure-all for everything...or at least that's what the
government says.
8. Buy WD-40 to 'lubricate' the economy. If you can't tape it, lube it, says
Bogart!
9. Go look under the upholstery in your cars, under your sofas and
chairs...there's gotta be that 'loose change' Bank of America always talks
about. Send it in to Uncle Sam and we'll have that $700B in no time!!
10. We've got a new (and better, says Bogart) mantra for our currency....In
Hounds We Trust!!
My Portfolio
Yeah... I am a party meister!
Face it baby. It's all about me!
Next time you are in, check out
my trim gluteus maximus.
The Swiss calibrate their
watches off of it!
I'm over here now... Woof!
