How did you teach him to do that? My dog is such a spaz she can "stay" but can't keep her head down enough for us to put the treat on her nose. Maybe when she's older...

Is that a Charley Bear treat Chuck is waiting on? My dog LOVES those!
I do the same thing to my schnauzer. Ahh, the furry beasts. The thing is, it looks like torture, but they love ethe end result, so is it really torture?
p.s. your entry for Leta's birthday was absolutely beautiful. hopefully someday I will have a mini-me as lovely as she is and feel the type of love that you feel for her. Happy birthday, Leta!
That's SUCH a good dog party trick. We're trying to teach Belle (our golden) to do that but when she gets excited (as she tends to do whenever there is a treat within a 50 foot radius of her nose) she does this whole body wiggle that makes balancing a treat on the nose VERY difficult. Look at Chuck though...such concentration. Must be form his Congressman days.
Props to Bucky Four-Eyes once again (that's twice in a couple weeks, isn't it?), for not only being first, but for making an actual comment on the picture, and completely resisting the urge to type "FIRST!"
Chuck,
Did you know you have a cracker on your nose? Why aren;t the people sitting behind you telling you you have a cracker on your nose and you look funny?
Something like that happened to me once, I had spinach in my teeth and my sisters refused to tell me and let me unkowingly suffer the embarassment just for thier pleasure.....
Chuck, you have a cracker on your nose, you might want to brush it off.
Cute! My mom's dog does that, too. And we are such awful people, that once we left it on her nose too long just to see how long she could do it, and we cracked when a strand of drool came dripping from her mouth...

The only way I can get our dog to do that is to smear butter or whipped cream on her nose. But if she even hears us open up her cookie jar, she goes nuts.
How all his whisker holes are in nice, straight lines.

My dog, Roxy, would absolutely not do that. In fact, she would be so far from sitting patiently, she would be as far as oh...I don't know...getting into the garbage because if there is one treat, there has to be more...and why settle for one treat on her nose, when she could have /whatever/ she wanted from the garbage can. Logical?
Such focus, such keen determination. I love Chuck Fridays!My dog would have an aneurism if I ATTEMPTED this with her.

My nephew can do that very same thing with snausages. He's 19 and we all sit around and watch him balance the doggie treats on his nose while making comments like "Oh look! He thinks he's people. Isn't that CUTE? Whooza good boy? Hmmm? Whooza good boy? Yes him izza good boy". Ah, good times.
I'd be willing to bet Mouse will not be happy about today's treatment of his friend, Chuck. Not one bit.

I read the GEORGE! entry, then went to visit his site (hadn't been there in a while), and I couldn't help noticing that he said he was "...happy and carefree..." on Wednesday the 2nd. CAREFREE. On Wednesday....the SAME DAY as the pantiliner photo. Coincidence? I THINK NOT.
I love it! Our little dog won't hold still enough yet, and the big dog, unfortunately, looks excruciatingly dopey because she gets cross-eyed staring at the treat on her nose. And she can't flip & catch it, either. So GO CHUCK! good boy! Happy Friday, Dooceites & House of Dooce! (Oo, I like that.... perhaps a Spring Fashion template idea?)
Bwwaaahahaha. This is the, "I could so go for their throat right now. I am a wild beast. Chuck you are a wild beast, be strong. Maybe I'll chew my way through the door tonight. Ah sweet freedom..." look. Our dog AnnaBelle has the same look when doing tricks.
George is awesome. He cracks me up. Uh huh huh...wiener.

What's offensive about wiener? That's about the most mild thing you can find on these dirty "internets."
That's cute! My dog used to do that... bless him - you could have left him there for hours and he wouldn't have moved. From Chuck's look of concentration, I guess the same applies here!
Girl A.- I do love you! Even though you won't eat no cheeseburger.
Jon got me yesterday with, "You are wonderful froggy goodness in our family". It's so heartfelt and matter-of-fact. Made me giggle with warm fuzziness.
Hooray for Chuck Fridays! I love that dog. What happens next year when Leta's Birthday falls on a Chuck Friday? You'll have to put up one of those cute snugly pictures of them on the floor. :) Awwww... Dooce, your family is rad.

Sometimes that shark looks right at ya. Right into your eyes. And the thing about a shark is he's got lifeless eyes. Black eyes. Like a doll's eyes. When he comes at ya, he doesn't even seem to be livin'... 'til he bites ya, and those black eyes roll over white and then... ah then you hear that terrible high-pitched screamin'.

I spent the next few minutes on the floor soothing his ego. Has this ever happened to anybody else? Or do I just have a suicidal/evil kneivel sort of cat?

Last night I was at a bar and in between music, I kept hearing a dog bark. I went out on the deck and there was a dog tied to the railing... in 40 degree weather. There was no slack in the leash, and it's collar was too small. Whoever it was had left their coat on the deck for the dog to lay on. I was so pissed off.
*Gooooder*
_Twenty_ times a day, you say? HA! I SCOFF at you! HAHA! Why, I've damn near worn out the F5 button on my keyboard, refreshing the Dooce comments page. Twenty times a day, indeed...
that's some crazy discipline. that dog is my hero. put a french frie on my nose and see if you can make me wait to eat it. go on. do it.

Nashville Jess, your story reminds me of a rotten doggie tale of my own. Winters up here in Ontario can be pretty vicious. Sometimes cold enough that we'll get warnings to stay indoors unless absolutely necessary. As a general rule, if its too cold for people, its usually too cold for pets. A couple of years ago, some dirt bag left his dog out in -40 degree C weather the entire night and it howled and howled. By morning its paws were frost bitten raw and it was partially frozen to the ice underneath it and whimpering. Fool owner was promptly arrested for animal cruelty. Only a slap on the wrist for that stuff though. Guys lucky he didn't get set on fire by an angry mob. Big internet hug to chuck through my monitor.
Can I please call you C.K.? I have this *thing* about circuses, because circuses have clowns and clowns have been trying to kill and eat me since I was about 6 years old.
Amanda B., I am afraid of clowns for no good reason except they are evil to me. And I have to laugh because I just realized I avoid CK's blog because it's really the circus thing.
I am so sorry, CircusKelli. I won't avoid you now that I know why the fear resides in me.
Amanda B:
You've got city boy hands, Hooper. You been countin' money all your life.
Okay, I'll stop with the fishy talk. Unless we get back on the dude who claims to have a pay-nis with the circumference of a tuna can. Then I'm back in.
Ahh, cute pic. We used to do that to my dog as well. She'd get all squinty eyed and practically twitch with anticipation until we said "Get It!" Such torture. We also loved to give my dog peanut butter because she'd spend the next five minutes trying to lick it off the roof of our mouth while we pathetic fools laughed until our stomachs hurt. Poor doggies.
Hey I'm in Nashville as well! Any others?

lol..hey brian,
perhaps your IT department is here at dooce.com and didn't notice the beeping alarm sound coming from the server room. On wednesday in the middle of all the poop talk our phone system decided to take a dump of its own. Being the "phone" guy at this place I finished typing a comment damn quick and then sprang away from my desk to take care of it. :S
And after today's entry, I have no doubt that you are your mother's daughter. You may fly in the face of all she holds dear and holy, but just go back and read that.
haaha,
Well to be honest it wouldnt suprize me in the least. With all the fecal-based conversation that goes on here, they'd be naturals in Dooce's comments section.
Grrr... my name keeps changing back to "from LI" I just wanted that for 1 day. *sigh*
In fact, Chuch has that look in his eye that HE has to poop. Probably stuck in that age-old dillemma... "Eat the Treat... or Poop?"

So, the last Leta pic shown in her Month 12 Newsletter? it's now possibly tied w/ my 2nd favorite picture of Leta.
Well, and there are two shots already tied for second - I swear, it's a now a three-way tie and I can't remedy this...
Month Nine Newsletter: the shot of Leta as a lil' Froggie (also as such found in "Wherein I Clobber the World with This Much Cuteness")
AND
Month Ten Newsletter: Leta bathing in the sink with the Cupie Doll curl atop her noggin'
But my NUMBER ONE FAVE *without a doubt* is the "gratuitous baby cheeks" shot found in 'Dog Park' for January 19th - those cheeks! Like pillowy marshmellows!

God, you are such a beautiful mom. Your words and your spirit capture exactly what every mom feels, but can't exactly express so beautifully. I journal for my daughter, but it never comes out as wonderfully as yours does.
I had to write because I've been thinking about that NY Times article. That stupid writer got it all wrong. Yes, mommy blogs ARE written mainly for the mom. Because you know why...mommyhood is INCREDIBLY HARD. And NOOONE tells you. I saw the Oprah show where they had the Moms who loved it and the Moms who were overwhelmed by being Moms, and it was like a war. The Moms who were overwhelmed just kept saying - but noone told me! That is how I felt when I had my daughter. My world was blown apart (my daugher had reflux and screamed 18 hours a day for 9 months and never, ever slept except upright on my chest). Noone tells you. I tell EVERYONE who is pregnant now. THey don't want to hear it - but I still tell them. That is why mommy blogs are so, so, so, so, so important. With our society moving so much and living more lonely lives - as in not being best friends with our neighbors and all, we don't have the support system that the generation before us had. I was the first in our group of friends to have a baby - noone was there for us to tell us it was all normal, that we'd make it through, that my depression wasn't ok and that I needed help, to teach us the tricks of the trade, to help us laugh at explosive diarrhea. Your site has helped me in countless ways and I can't thank you enough for it. That NY Times writer just got it so wrong. So what if Mommy blogs talk about the mommy too? That is exactly why I come here!!
My dog is very similar to Chuck, except she's never been around other dogs and often thinks she is a cat. Also, she's not yet faced public clothed humiliation. I would comment on how cute their offspring would be, but to be honest, the idea kind of freaks me out. Like most of the United States, my dog should never be allowed to procreate.

No one warned ME that I'd spend 9 months of my life having random people constantly telling me the scariest shit they could think of. Did you know that sometimes they have to do a c-section without ANAESTHETIC? Or a similar word that is spelled correctly?

Woof Woof to Fridays :D. Man, what a week!!
46. KelliAmanda said:
My dogs would SO not sit there and wait for the treat. Good boy, Chuckles!
47. bb said:
Ahhh! I thought for sure today you'd have a birthday pic of Leta up! I was waiting for it too!
48. Cheryl said:
IT'S FRIDAY!!! YEAY CHUCK... you make my Fridays so much better.
49. Wicked H said:
What restraint! Good Boy Chuck.
Happy Chuck Friday!!!!!
50. Elaine said:
Nice crouch shot of the person behind Chuck.
51. alyssa said:
Chuck!
52. tpaquin said:
Chuck,
Did you know you have a cracker on your nose? Why aren;t the people sitting behind you telling you you have a cracker on your nose and you look funny?
Something like that happened to me once, I had spinach in my teeth and my sisters refused to tell me and let me unkowingly suffer the embarassment just for thier pleasure.....
Chuck, you have a cracker on your nose, you might want to brush it off.
53. Molly said:
Awwwww...
54. Colleen from NJ said:
I do that same thing to my sons. The 4-year-old is just not as patient as the 6-week-old.
55. The Wife said:
How do you get him to do that??!! I can't even get my dog to "shake".
56. Heather said:
Cute! My mom's dog does that, too. And we are such awful people, that once we left it on her nose too long just to see how long she could do it, and we cracked when a strand of drool came dripping from her mouth...
57. Laurie said:
The only way I can get our dog to do that is to smear butter or whipped cream on her nose. But if she even hears us open up her cookie jar, she goes nuts.
Good job chuckles
58. Peter Hentges said:
TGICF! Ruff!
59. Peggasus said:
You know what I like about Chuck?
How all his whisker holes are in nice, straight lines.
60. Kassi said:
My dog, Roxy, would absolutely not do that. In fact, she would be so far from sitting patiently, she would be as far as oh...I don't know...getting into the garbage because if there is one treat, there has to be more...and why settle for one treat on her nose, when she could have /whatever/ she wanted from the garbage can. Logical?
61. Toren said:
Such focus, such keen determination. I love Chuck Fridays!My dog would have an aneurism if I ATTEMPTED this with her.
62. Erin said:
You know, Chuck Friday really just completes my week.
63. Dazed & Confuzed said:
My nephew can do that very same thing with snausages. He's 19 and we all sit around and watch him balance the doggie treats on his nose while making comments like "Oh look! He thinks he's people. Isn't that CUTE? Whooza good boy? Hmmm? Whooza good boy? Yes him izza good boy". Ah, good times.
64. Bucky Four-Eyes said:
I'd be willing to bet Mouse will not be happy about today's treatment of his friend, Chuck. Not one bit.
And Dazed -- if your nephew is housebroken, he's a keeper!
65. Dazed & Confuzed said:
Bucky - if he were HOUSEBROKEN he could sleep indoors. But alas, it's not to be. His boyfriend is housebroken, however, so we're hoping he can learn by example.
66. Sherri said:
Dude, we do that with our family dog. Try it with an ice cube and see if he'll sit there till it melts.
$5 says he will.
67. terimo said:
Chuck you rock!!
68. Pissy Britches said:
I want Chuck for my doggie. Can I have him?
69. Melissa said:
The wife,
We couldn't get our dog to shake either. Tried and tried... Then one day I said 'Gimme 5'. And he did! So, you might try that.
As for the trick on the nose - we can't even get it there because he keeps lifting his head up to try to grab it out of our hand.
70. red said:
i had a lab that did that.... then would flip it up and catch it mid air. we used to make him do it all the time, the poor thing.
71. shaunacat said:
There is no way my dog could do that...she's totally impatient like her moma.
72. stella said:
Heather,
I go clickity click click on the google ads cause I want you to get lots and lots of money cause I think you deserve it for the work you put in. Anyway, the current ad as of this writing, were for different types of cheese.
What's up google?
73. Mrs.Strizzay said:
Gotta love the background crotch shot.
74. Robyn said:
I love Chuckles Friday! How cute is he?! You guys should seriously consider putting him into modeling. You would be very rich!
75. Home Detention Lady said:
Our family lab, Sam, does the same thing. Making her wait longer and longer and longer is so amusing to the humans in her life.
76. Big Gay Sam said:
That photo should be placed in the dictionary as the definition for ANTICIPATION.
77. Mrs.Strizzay said:
Like the song
78. erika said:

80. Aliesha said:
Haha! We tried to teach our dog to do that but he an impatient, nervous dog so he just couldn't wait.
81. LadyBug said:
I read the GEORGE! entry, then went to visit his site (hadn't been there in a while), and I couldn't help noticing that he said he was "...happy and carefree..." on Wednesday the 2nd. CAREFREE. On Wednesday....the SAME DAY as the pantiliner photo. Coincidence? I THINK NOT.
82. Jody said:
Too cute!
Your post for Leta's 12 month was wonderful. Yes, they are proof of God. And the love we have for them is so deep, we drown in it at times.
Jody
83. Vanessa said:
Chuck is such a cutie! Awww!
84. becaru said:
Awww, Chuck!
My late Golden Retriever, Manfred, the Wonder Dog, could do that trick. I would file this photo under, "How to Charm Me"
85. becca said:
There is NO way my dog would do that. Hats off to Chuck.
86. August95 said:
Ok, Take It. Good Chuck.
87. Southern Fried Girl said:

88. Heatheranne said:

89. spoonleg said:
Chuck Chuck-iminy Chuck Chuck-iminy Chuck Chuck-cheroo!
90. Jennifer in Kansas City said:
I love it! Our little dog won't hold still enough yet, and the big dog, unfortunately, looks excruciatingly dopey because she gets cross-eyed staring at the treat on her nose. And she can't flip & catch it, either. So GO CHUCK! good boy! Happy Friday, Dooceites & House of Dooce! (Oo, I like that.... perhaps a Spring Fashion template idea?)
91. Amanda B. said:
Bwwaaahahaha. This is the, "I could so go for their throat right now. I am a wild beast. Chuck you are a wild beast, be strong. Maybe I'll chew my way through the door tonight. Ah sweet freedom..." look. Our dog AnnaBelle has the same look when doing tricks.
George is awesome. He cracks me up. Uh huh huh...wiener.
92. U.B. said:
Wow -- special canine torture.
I have never had a dog that could tolerate that...
93. Kerri said:
FUNNY!
94. jen said:
oh my goodness how i love MOUSE!!!
wonderful weekends to all.
95. U.B. said:
So, I'm wondering who the big-legged, jean-wearing people are in the background audience? Was this a command performance in a multi-purpose room somewhere? Looks like a circle of people watching Chuck perform his opus.
96. spoonleg said:
Amanda B. I am going to get you a t-shirt that says weiner so you don't have to say/type it so often.
97. RazDreams said:
This time I correctly guessed what the picture was just by the thumbnail. Poor Chuck. That's just mean. (And look how young and impressionable he is!!!) ;-)
Methinks dooce should consider making Saturday and Sunday "Leta's Birthday Party Picture Weekend Extravaganza Festival Incorporated." Pictures of poop-frosting on the face just ain't e'nuff for us addicts. We need wrapping paper! and presents! and a big messy living room floor! and LetaDorita in the middle of it all! laughing! with arms flailing! Wooohooo!
98. RazDreams said:
*Revised* T-shirt Slogan: "GEORGE! Ruff weiner poop Of France!!!!"
99. Gooooder said:
GEORGE! It's good to hear Texas has not corrupted him.
And I am glad that it is CHUCK FRIDAY. WOOOOT.
100. Amanda B. said:
MG2- I would love a wiener T-shirt. But I'll probably still say/type it every chance I get.
Wiener.
101. Gordon said:
I tried that with my wife's Seeing Eye Dog(TM) (when he was out of harness and not working of course)and decided that 5 seconds was entriely too long for a dog to wait for his treat and about swallowed my whole hand with the Milkbone.
102. The Wife said:
Melissa--
Thanks for the doggie advice. I'm willing to try anything for our dog. But I think she's a little slow. If ya know what I mean.
103. Girl.A said:
Up, Chuck, Up!
Oh I wish I were an Oscar Mayer Wiener
That is what I'd truly like to be
Cause if I were an Oscar Mayer Wiener
Amanda B would be in love with me
104. Carla Beth said:
My fiance flicked a small piece of butter off of his fork at dinner one night. It landed on the tip of my cat's nose, who was sitting on the other side of the room. Her eyes crossed when she tried to look at it. So cute!
105. Kassie said:
What's offensive about wiener? That's about the most mild thing you can find on these dirty "internets."

108. Annie said:
From the thumbnail, I thought it was a baked potatoe with a piece of butter on top....
109. Liv said:
That's cute! My dog used to do that... bless him - you could have left him there for hours and he wouldn't have moved. From Chuck's look of concentration, I guess the same applies here!
110. Colleen from NJ said:
It's good that Chuck's nose is not in those man crotches so close to him.
111. Fish said:
Hey Chuck, you've got a great big crusty booger on your nose...
you mean you're going to EAT IT? ewww.
112. Amanda B. said:
Girl A.- I do love you! Even though you won't eat no cheeseburger.
Jon got me yesterday with, "You are wonderful froggy goodness in our family". It's so heartfelt and matter-of-fact. Made me giggle with warm fuzziness.
113. geeky said:
haha i'm glad we're not the only ones that do that to our dog :)
114. elyse said:

115. BethA said:

116. Deirdre said:
Hooray for Chuck Fridays! I love that dog. What happens next year when Leta's Birthday falls on a Chuck Friday? You'll have to put up one of those cute snugly pictures of them on the floor. :) Awwww... Dooce, your family is rad.
117. Annejelynn said:

118. Andrea in Canada said:
Happy Chuck Friday everyone.
He is so cute, everytime I see him I beg my husband to let us have a dog...he still says no and HIS NAME IS CHUCK!! :(
119. RazDreams said:

120. Kathleen said:
Chuck has the same facial expressions as my dog. He MUST have a little Jack Russel Terror in him!
121. Jennifer said:
He's a cutie. Poor thing looks like he's going to implode from the pressure of waiting to eat that treat. Impressive patience.
122. ella's ma said:
Chuck is a very symetrical dog.
Happy Chuck Friday!!

123. DM said:
Oh. I am seriously beginning to love Chuck Fridays.
Dang it, I'm tearing up over a picture of a dog. I am such a sap.
124. Ern said:
My parents' dog does that with ice cubes. Weird, huh? When you are getting water from the fridge he sits there begging--he knows that's where the ice comes out!
We shot dozens of pictures trying to get one shot of him catching the ice cube, but no luck. Darn delay on the non d70 digital camera!
125. carolina said:
Chuck is awesome!!!!!!!! And so cute =)
126. Cheryl said:
Heather, if you could set me up with GEORGE! we could have awesome babies-- not as cool as Leta, but I would try my hardest!
127. Melanie S. said:
Chuck has eyes like Jaws! Black and no eyelashes. I think I might be skeerd.
BTW, MOUSE! We love you too!
128. Bucky Four-Eyes said:
Sometimes that shark looks right at ya. Right into your eyes. And the thing about a shark is he's got lifeless eyes. Black eyes. Like a doll's eyes. When he comes at ya, he doesn't even seem to be livin'... 'til he bites ya, and those black eyes roll over white and then... ah then you hear that terrible high-pitched screamin'.

132. mihow said:
Last night, my cat lit his tail on fired by one of my candles. I didn't notice this happen until the smell hit the dinner party. Everyone was all "holy shit! What's that smell?" Turns out the little man's tail was in flames.
I spent the next few minutes on the floor soothing his ego. Has this ever happened to anybody else? Or do I just have a suicidal/evil kneivel sort of cat?
Pets are funny creatures. I can't imagine my life without the fuzzy beasts.
133. Kenny said:
Wow Bucky. Can I have a hit of whatever your smokin'?
134. Gooooder said:

136. Nashville Jess said:
Last night I was at a bar and in between music, I kept hearing a dog bark. I went out on the deck and there was a dog tied to the railing... in 40 degree weather. There was no slack in the leash, and it's collar was too small. Whoever it was had left their coat on the deck for the dog to lay on. I was so pissed off.
137. Circus Kelli said:

141. Mrs.Strizzay said:
Chuck looks so young and innocent there. I wonder if they give him doggie size shots of beer. Dogs like beer.
142. Brian said:

Friday may now, reconvene.
143. AyEnDeeAreEeAyAitch said:

144. Annejelynn said:
OMG - all I have to do is hit F5 to refresh??? you mean for YEARS I've been clicking my refresh view icon when I could have merely F5-ed???
wow. Feeling stupid.

145. honestyrain said:
that's some crazy discipline. that dog is my hero. put a french frie on my nose and see if you can make me wait to eat it. go on. do it.
146. Dang cold... said:
Nashville Jess, your story reminds me of a rotten doggie tale of my own. Winters up here in Ontario can be pretty vicious. Sometimes cold enough that we'll get warnings to stay indoors unless absolutely necessary. As a general rule, if its too cold for people, its usually too cold for pets. A couple of years ago, some dirt bag left his dog out in -40 degree C weather the entire night and it howled and howled. By morning its paws were frost bitten raw and it was partially frozen to the ice underneath it and whimpering. Fool owner was promptly arrested for animal cruelty. Only a slap on the wrist for that stuff though. Guys lucky he didn't get set on fire by an angry mob. Big internet hug to chuck through my monitor.
147. kristine said:

Happy Friday everyone!!
148. Amanda B. said:
Circus Kelly- yep Jaws, a classic.
Can I please call you C.K.? I have this *thing* about circuses, because circuses have clowns and clowns have been trying to kill and eat me since I was about 6 years old.

150. Colleen from NJ said:
Amanda B., I am afraid of clowns for no good reason except they are evil to me. And I have to laugh because I just realized I avoid CK's blog because it's really the circus thing.
I am so sorry, CircusKelli. I won't avoid you now that I know why the fear resides in me.

155. Katie said:
Ahh, cute pic. We used to do that to my dog as well. She'd get all squinty eyed and practically twitch with anticipation until we said "Get It!" Such torture. We also loved to give my dog peanut butter because she'd spend the next five minutes trying to lick it off the roof of our mouth while we pathetic fools laughed until our stomachs hurt. Poor doggies.
Hey I'm in Nashville as well! Any others?
156. Katie said:

161. Dang cold.. said:
lol..hey brian,
perhaps your IT department is here at dooce.com and didn't notice the beeping alarm sound coming from the server room. On wednesday in the middle of all the poop talk our phone system decided to take a dump of its own. Being the "phone" guy at this place I finished typing a comment damn quick and then sprang away from my desk to take care of it. :S
162. Evil Stepmother said:
Chuck is such a well-trained former congressman.
And after today's entry, I have no doubt that you are your mother's daughter. You may fly in the face of all she holds dear and holy, but just go back and read that.
163. Brian from LI said:
haaha,
Well to be honest it wouldnt suprize me in the least. With all the fecal-based conversation that goes on here, they'd be naturals in Dooce's comments section.
164. Brian said:
Grrr... my name keeps changing back to "from LI" I just wanted that for 1 day. *sigh*
In fact, Chuch has that look in his eye that HE has to poop. Probably stuck in that age-old dillemma... "Eat the Treat... or Poop?"
Chuck: When tough decisions need to be made.
165. Annejelynn said:
So, the last Leta pic shown in her Month 12 Newsletter? it's now possibly tied w/ my 2nd favorite picture of Leta.
Well, and there are two shots already tied for second - I swear, it's a now a three-way tie and I can't remedy this...
Month Nine Newsletter: the shot of Leta as a lil' Froggie (also as such found in "Wherein I Clobber the World with This Much Cuteness")
AND
Month Ten Newsletter: Leta bathing in the sink with the Cupie Doll curl atop her noggin'
But my NUMBER ONE FAVE *without a doubt* is the "gratuitous baby cheeks" shot found in 'Dog Park' for January 19th - those cheeks! Like pillowy marshmellows!

168. Julie said:
God, you are such a beautiful mom. Your words and your spirit capture exactly what every mom feels, but can't exactly express so beautifully. I journal for my daughter, but it never comes out as wonderfully as yours does.
I had to write because I've been thinking about that NY Times article. That stupid writer got it all wrong. Yes, mommy blogs ARE written mainly for the mom. Because you know why...mommyhood is INCREDIBLY HARD. And NOOONE tells you. I saw the Oprah show where they had the Moms who loved it and the Moms who were overwhelmed by being Moms, and it was like a war. The Moms who were overwhelmed just kept saying - but noone told me! That is how I felt when I had my daughter. My world was blown apart (my daugher had reflux and screamed 18 hours a day for 9 months and never, ever slept except upright on my chest). Noone tells you. I tell EVERYONE who is pregnant now. THey don't want to hear it - but I still tell them. That is why mommy blogs are so, so, so, so, so important. With our society moving so much and living more lonely lives - as in not being best friends with our neighbors and all, we don't have the support system that the generation before us had. I was the first in our group of friends to have a baby - noone was there for us to tell us it was all normal, that we'd make it through, that my depression wasn't ok and that I needed help, to teach us the tricks of the trade, to help us laugh at explosive diarrhea. Your site has helped me in countless ways and I can't thank you enough for it. That NY Times writer just got it so wrong. So what if Mommy blogs talk about the mommy too? That is exactly why I come here!!
169. Ehle said:
My dog is very similar to Chuck, except she's never been around other dogs and often thinks she is a cat. Also, she's not yet faced public clothed humiliation. I would comment on how cute their offspring would be, but to be honest, the idea kind of freaks me out. Like most of the United States, my dog should never be allowed to procreate.
170. Dang cold.. said:
Annejelynn, not so bad the past week but it was nasty a few weeks ago. Hence the nickname because thats when I started commenting in this here place. I was seeking refuge from the cold and here I am.
As for Leta pics. "Tiny Bubbles" is the one that stands out for me. Cute as hell!! Reminds me of the state I was in at a Pink Floyd concert about 10 years ago...duuuuuhhhh!!!!!

Yeah, I suppose I am quite a novice. I guess I do not count refreshing comments towards the page viewing. OOPS.
My job likes it, it shows my ability to multitask! And multitask I WILL!

I was also unaware of the F5 trick. I am over here clicking like crazy.
And I think I know anything about computers.

okay Chevy - I knew a website for Old Navy was out there, somewhere, but had always completely avoided discovery, restrained myself from seeking it out.
Now.I.am.doomed. dammit.

Apple+R or Ctrl+R is the same as F5.

AHHHH - wonders of wonders! another Refresh trick!?! neato! Danke schon, Shiz.
204. Sonia said:
Ever see the movies Scanners? That's what Chuck looks like here. Like his head is just about to explode.
205. Circus Kelli said:
Heh... what is everyone hitting F5 to refresh and no one is posting any comments?? We're all waitin' on someone else to post so we can see F5 work...
206. Dang cold... said:
everyone press F5.........NOW!!!
207. Gooooder said:
Ooooh! Apple commands. I need to learn those, since I got the MACMINI! It is SO FREAKING HOT! and wee! so wee!
208. Annejelynn said:
Hey Shiz, whenever I see your name, my inner voice can't help repeating in a stoner-like drawl, "Yer the Shiz-nit, man..."
209. Dang cold... said:
Doesn't chuck look like old yeller in that pic?
F5
210. Shiz said:
I'm going to make some butter cookies and find a way to make them look like Chuck! I'll call them Chuck Cookies. Then I will tell everyone at Dooce how to make yummy Chuck Cookies, all in honour of this picture that looks like Chuckles with a pat of butter on his nose, as those dooce was going to pour syrup on him at eat him up.
211. Gooooder said:
He looks even cuter every time I F5, although the New Year's baby chuckles is definitely my favorite picture of him. He looks portly!
212. Gooooder said:
He's almost as cute as the MAC MINI MINI MAC. It is little and will hold many gigs! WOOT.
213. effie said:
Hey--I'll post--so you can all use the F5 key--it does work! I want a dog like Chuck--so obedient. When I was little the only trick we could get our dog to do was beg--she did that well enough without being taught!
And happy birthday a day late to the most adorable Leta!
The problem here is the water has just gone out across the city and now they closed the washrooms. What are we supposed to do?!?!

The Avon World Sales Leader has flipped me off many times, but my dad holds the record in that department. She flips him off at least 5 times a day when he visits.
216. Shiz said:
Gooooder, most Mac commands are the same as PC commands - the basics, anyway - except that you use the Apple key instead of using Control.
Link on my name to find a list.
217. Shiz said:
And Gooooder, how are you loving your MINI MAC?
218. Gooooder said:
It is so little, I am going to post a picture later of me hugging it. It came from China!
Now I just need one of those hot flat monitors that cost $1k and I will be all set. No more clunky non chic design desktop.
219. Dang cold... said:
When people flip me off I just tell them "thanks I know I'm number one" GUFFAW!!
220. The Wife said:
The Gizoogle is just too cool.
221. Gooooder said:
The new mini mac knows it is number one. ICHIBAN DESU YO!
222. Fish said:
When people flip me off I try to bite their fucking fingers off but the metal cage around my face usually gets in the way.
223. Fish said:
Or I just pull out my Glock and cap their asses.
224. Amanda B. said:
Word.
225. MrsDoF said:
The pat of butter...yeah, that's what I saw first, yet I knew it was Chuck Friday.
I'll join you with the laughs for today, Heather B. and GEORGE!
Believe it or not, getting told off on two celebrity blogs has been the highlight of my week.
226. Shiz said:
Gooooder, my husband got two of those on e-bay for great deals. Click my name for pics.
227. Dang cold.. said:
I had a metal cage around my face back in junior high. dentist put it there. It was the cause of me getting flipped of alot...mostly by attractive girls that I wanted to talk to....but I'm not bitter.
228. Fish said:
My metal cage was put there by the fucking FBI so I wouldn't bite their cheeks off
229. Gooooder said:
oh they are so pretty! it seems sad to not give the mini mac a really nice monitor.
when i was in japan they had HUGE beautiful ones, but they cost a gazillion Yen.
230. carrie said:
chuck is very cute and i am so impressed with his patience. the giant crotch in the background scares me though.
231. Amanda B. said:
*Fish breaks his rusty cage and runs*
232. Fish said:
That's Bartles and James in the background, and Chuck is drunk on wine coolers, isn't he?
233. Mrs.Strizzay said:
LMAO..Chuck is deing a feild sobriety test.
234. Chair said:
I love the not-too-subtle crotch shots in the background. Weiner indeed!
I think you could easily have a GEORGE! category...
235. Mrs.Strizzay said:

236. Fish said:
Whoa! looks like Striz has been hittin up the B&J a little early today, too!
237. Mrs.Strizzay said:
We had parakeets named that. One talked and one didn't, yeah, we were super cool.

238. Gooooder said:

CROTCH.
239. Fish said:
I said B AND J, people, not "BJ"

240. Fish said:

243. stinkerbell said:

244. Mrs.Strizzay said:
I prefer non violent oral copulation TYVM. Unless we are talking about ass smackage.
245. stinkerbell said:
oh and is it scary that I am betting that is a charly bear...
246. Fish said:
Phew, bout time someone brought up ass smackage. I though I was the only one thinkin ass smackage round here.
247. Amanda B. said:
Colleen- Monty Python. I heart you, too.
Fish- there's a sign here in town that says "B&J Lube". Husbando and I drive by it on purpose...
248. Dang cold... said:
You guys ever heard of an 80's porno called Beverly Hills Copulator?
249. Circus Kelli said:
Dang cold -- Why? You in it?
250. Mrs.Strizzay said:
Have you ever seen the one where the guy has a didlo for a nose and if I recall correctly he is the divel. Hmmm.
251. Mrs.Strizzay said:
DEVIL! arrrg
252. Leah said:
There's something otherworldly about Chuck. It's like he's half-dog, half-enchanted hart. But maybe he comes off differently in person.
253. Gooooder said:
i think i'd like hell.
especially if i can yell CROTCH there everytime i see one.
254. Gooooder said:
nah i have not seen that one either. deep throat is still one of the funniest things i have ever seen.
BIG MAGGIIIC BUUBBBLLLEEES.
255. Fish said:
Dude, Strizzay is like, so wasted.
What about Edward Penishands?
256. Mrs.Strizzay said:
I spelled idldo wrong too. LMFAO
OMG D.I.L.D.O and dildo was his name-o
257. Mrs.Strizzay said:
It must be the bleach Fish. I am totally sober.
258. Amanda B. said:
Ah, 80's porn. Boobs and cheesy mustaches. Moderatly attractive crackers having quazi-arousing sex to wierd funk music.
Well, any porn really.
259. Gooooder said:

Julie (#168) I know you mean well but PLEASE STOP freaking out all the nice pregnant ladies. It's too late for them, you can't save them now - tell the horror stories to people who *aren't* pregnant yet.
No one warned ME that I'd spend 9 months of my life having random people constantly telling me the scariest shit they could think of. Did you know that sometimes they have to do a c-section without ANAESTHETIC? Or a similar word that is spelled correctly?
261. Fish said:
sounds like you've got *quite* the collection there, manda.
262. Fish said:
Anyone here seen Army of Darkness?
