44 Earliest memory. I already opened up and poured my soul out on another website. I feel so cleansed.

Now my earliest memory is starting to write this message. What was I saying?

deed, that wasn't in Chicago, was it? The Mrs's family dog died that way when she was young.

I will fight the urge to say something relating to Obama's dietary haabits. Must. Fight. Urge.

338 I may just write a check for a double-wide somewhere in Arkansas and pack it up

Peaches, do I recall right you're in the People's Republic of California? If so, and you head east, and you hit Arkansas...
you went one state too far. IMAO

Double-wides can be okay. Avoid floodplains and hilltops and trailer parks. Nestle into a nice valley somewhere the naders don't go and you're good.

385 The Hitler's dog vid is a perfect example of the genre, involving numerous anachronisms, ludicrous extremes, conflicting sympathies, and served up fast to meet the current meme cycle! Congratulations!

I thought "Fuffy" was a nice touch. One of the great things about this well-worn movie meme is knowing what's coming visually, and here is excellent anticipation and payoff for that moment when Adolph tremblingly reaches for his glasses.

446 the "Obama eats dog" jokes will become tiresome.

True but. All humor goes through cycles. As my kids learned early from a Garfield cartoon [h/t prob to writer Mark Evanier], keep repeating it and the joke becomes funny again after a while. I think this will keep growling until election time. It's a howler. Derived from his own tail, it'll go fur. They can't muzzle it; they can't stop the wags. Those are my haunches.
