Dog Wars

[trapeze]

So...it's been what? Two days since the last dog-related post?

Jim Treacher continues to dig up bones on this subject.

...a century after Japan presented the people of the United States with 3,000 cherry trees, the US is reciprocating by presenting Japan with 3,000 dogwood trees to be planted in a Tokyo park.

That’s right. Dogwood. The President of the United States was heard to exclaim, rubbing his hands with delight: “You mean they grow on trees??”

You know what would taste good to Obama right now? A dogwood.

Plus Treacher also give a mention to huge O'Bongo fanboy, Christopher Buckley's new book, "They Eat Puppies, Don't They?" No, it's not a joke. He really wrote a book with that title. It will be released on May 8th. Fortuitous timing if ever there was.

Here is the link to the CSM story (dated yesterday) about the gift of Dogwood trees to Japan.

Must be an Obama supporter:

Woman bites dog, police say
Authorities charge 19-year-old with underage drinking, domestic battery, animal cruelty

Police said Garner scratched and hit her 37-year-old mother in the face and also bit her on the right hand. Police said the family's 80-pound English bulldog had three bite marks on its back. Puncture marks were visible against the dog's white fur, police said.

"The bulldog finally did bite her back in self-defense," Smith said. "There were no charges against the dog."

I think she needs to use the Obama defense.

I think she needs to use the Obama defense.

Which would be, umm... "Tasty?"
