Bah Humbug

No not really.....

Sug and I just made our first post marriage long term commitment:  An australian puppie named Comet.  He was named Comet mostly because when paired with the words "Captain" or "Commander," or other words conoting authority, he sounds like a superhero. 

He's sooooooooo CUTE!

We've had him for about 10 days now and have taught him how to come and to sit with hand signals and words and he will fetch and "drop" on verbal command.  We are working on lying down next, then rolling over. 

Reminds me of when my son was little.  I taught him plenty of tricks too.  His tricks weren't obedient tricks, but entertaining tricks.  He used to perform in the living room singing, dancing and doing standup.  Seriously, the kid would put on his little grown-up suit complete with clip-on bow tie, grab a pseudo microphone and thank the "folks," usually consisting of just me, for coming tonight.  Then he would tell jokes.  Sometimes he would make up his own material and other times he would steal from Sesame street, cartoons or even Seinfeld.  Ahhhhhh memories.

As soon as I have reloaded the software for my camera, I'll upload pictures of the cuteness that is Captain Comet.

Ciao
