Was sound asleep and both girls went TOTALLY FUCKING NUTS barking. Checked the house, walked the perimeter, nothing. Tunch is on his chair unfazed. Immediately, I thought- “I should blog this.”
And so I did.
This is the message the girls gave me.

Go back to bed, Cole. Imma take my own advice on this one even.

I’m guessing a neighborhood cat or nocturnal critter at the door. Now go to bed, you’re interrupting my double-brew day! ;-)

You could have a 150# Pyrennese whose job is that nothing goes un-noticed. That, my friend, is a bark.

Helicopters flying over the house used to drive my parents’ dog nuts.

John, it was an alien. They saved you from a probing, bet on it.
Give them treats. They’ve earned it.
@THE:
Were they black and weeping? ;)
@Chuck Butcher:
Heya guy! How have you been? Well I hope.

It was the ghost of David Broder after the broadcast of that insipid MSNBC ad that features Chuck Todd; that was somehow supposed to make me think that he’s a liberal……
anyone taking bets on the number of the days before Maddow joins Olbermann on Current?

@Odie Hugh Manatee:
Once I get rid of most of my possessions I may be well. Need some?

I guess there are insomniacs everywhere… I should have been in bed hours ago, but instead I’ve been reading French history on Wikipedia. I already regret it, but I’ll regret it more in the morning.
We have three cats, no dogs. So rather than being awakened by barking, we’re awakened by yowling, barfing, or more-or-less-polite paws to our noses for food.

@catdevotee: Some of us just get up very early. Flying to LA today will really screw up the clock!

@Chuck Butcher:
Curious question but no, I have too much stuff as it is. If anything, I need to get rid of some of my crap…lol!
Most of your possessions? May I ask why? If not, no big deal it’s just that was a very unusual response.

Starting my shift; glad to see someone else is awake (relatively).

THANK YOU from some JB! You people are so white sometimes with your crazy, new fangled moosikal groups. ;-)
Here is the best compilation of JB moves this white girl has ever seen or will see, I imagine. I can’t watch it without smiling.

Odie Hugh Manatee:
Don’t be silly. Of course John was probed. The dogs weren’t barking at the aliens arrival; the dogs were barking at their departure.

I love it when he travels across the stage on one foot and then brushes off his pants leg like no big deal.

@Raven (formerly stuckinred): Have a good trip and go braves.

Damned canine fire drills. Hate those.

A new tagline for the blog?

The girls heard the signals Tunch is getting from his mother ship and were trying to warn you.
SOON..

Tunch probably noticed them looking at him, and flipped them the bird and said something nasty to them.
Or maybe he told them that if they woke up Monkey Boy and made him get all the way out of bed, he’d knock extra goodies down to them off the kitchen counter.

@piratedan:
I’d donate to a Free Rachel charity if one existed. Turning that channel on to watch her makes me feel like I need to shower.

That’s how it starts. Next thing you know we will be reading about the “Son of Tunch” murders in Coles neighbourhood.
Wouldn’t be surprised if he already hears voices from his dog telling him what to blog based on the content of his drivel.

I cannot see/hear James Brown without remembering watching the Watts “riots” on TV and James Brown on the record player.
LT
I got up too early. I saw in a post above this James Brown in the still image of a YouTube video; say Chris Hedges in the still image of the video in this post (knowing that it had James Brown in it last night); entered this post, then saw James Brown here. Do YouTube stills usually bounce around like that?

@harlana:
Thanks for posting that! That version of “There Was a Time” is from J.B.’s 1968 Dallas concert. Awesome stuff. I think it is my favorite live J.B. track of all time. The drummer kills it all the way. I don’t see how he didn’t stroke out halfway through.
