Lewis and Clark
Last Sunday, Ricky and I discovered a brand-new hiking area. Well, all right, we didn’t actually discover it. My friend Sarah, who has China the chow chow, told me about it, but Ricky and I did have the whole place to ourselves on Sunday. Well, all right, not exactly to ourselves — but there cer…
Brazilian Silliness
When Beagle Man introduced The Roof Rack Report in early September, he said I’m more of a “political animal” than he is. He got that right. But I gotta be honest with you: After the election, my interest in politics does, well, tail off a bit. So I hope you won’t mind if I veer off-track to a r…
Playoffs
Yesterday on the FAN, Joe and Evan were analyzing the Jets’ dwindling playoff chances. I have to admit — earmuffs, Robby — they were more bullish than I am at the moment. Their conversation brought to mind a recent family discussion about what Ricky likes
most. Of course, we then started ranki…
Barry Wins — And Then Thanks Ricky!
Oh, sure, I was around in 2004 and 2008, but I didn’t take part in those elections the way I did this year. I mean . . . my own blog? And actually being allowed inside the polling place? They didn’t know quite what to make of me at first: B-Man asked a campaigner outside if it would be all right…
Sandy, Chris, Barry, and Mitt
Bummer! No debate this week. Though I couldn’t have watched it, anyway; we still have no power, thanks to Hurricane Sandy — or “Super Storm Sandy,” as they’re now calling it on radio. Cute. Come to think of it, how am I going to watch Brad and Carrie hosting the CMA’s tonight? I suppose we cou…
The Beagle Has Landed
Yeah, yeah, yeah — the beagle actually landed four weeks ago. I know that. I thought of this title the day after writing “It’s a Wrap,” my first post LA/XC-2 report, and have been wishing I’d used it ever since. Sort of the way Barack felt, I’m sure, on October 4, when he thought of all his gre…
I Want To Kiss A Dog
Yes, of course this title is a play on Keith Urban’s I Want To Kiss A Girl. You know I pretty much spend my life riding shotgun in Beagle Man’s car, and I know every song on his iPod by heart. So today Dogster ran a headline — Do You Kiss Your Dog? You Might Wanna Stop — and it went on to say tha…
Barry Growls Back
Three debates down, one to go. Lots of late nights for moi! I liked hearing Barry growl last night — though howling would have been even better. My personal opinion? He kicked Seamus’s dad’s butt. Of course, it didn’t hurt having that Candy lady on our side. 🙂 Actually, I thought both cand…
Mock Debate
Mrs. Beagle Man thought the veep did real well last night, holding down the fort while Barry licked his wounds and got ready for next week. “Sort of Biden his time?” B-Man said. They both thought this was a riot. The thing that impressed me was what a great guy old Joe is. I’ve always liked…
