Clint vs. Scarlett
Yeah, I know it was a week ago, but I still find myself thinking about Clint Eastwood’s speech at the RNC. Kind of weird. Kind of creepy. And then I hear on CNN yesterday that Scarlett Johansson would be speaking up for Obama. Sure, I’m a dog, but I’d take Scarlett over Clint in a heartbeat. …

* * * COUNTDOWN: 2 DAYS TO LA/XC-2 * * *
Was just reading a headline on The Fiscal Times website: “Obama on the Defense as Dems Convene in Charlotte.” Wait. Isn’t Obama the incumbent? But he’s on the defense? Politics. Go figure. Still, I like to keep up. Just because Beagle Man’s a politi…
MY PALS: Tripp
* * * COUNTDOWN: 3 DAYS TO LA/XC-2 * * *
Take a look at Tripp’s face. Okay, now look at mine. Even though he’s an English pointer with a preppy name, we could be brothers, no? Tripp, like Romeo, and like Monty and Bandit, is one of my Montauk beach buddies. In fact, he’s related to M&B…
Ricky Speaks Out
* * * COUNTDOWN: 4 DAYS TO LA/XC-2 * * *
Throughout the Republican National Convention this past week, I kept hearing Tampa this, and Tampa that. Why all this love for Tampa? Then on Thursday, while I was listening to radio coverage of Day 3, the commentator said he was “reporting live from Ta…

I have a lot of friends on the beach in Montauk — that is, when I’m actually allowed to go. (Hear that, Beagle Man?) There’s Monty and Bandit, who I just told you about. There’s Beau, the yellow Lab who loves to steal Robby’s football. But my oldest…
Ricky To Ride on Roof Rack?

Just back late last night from moving Robby into his new digs at USC. You might ask, why would you fly out to L.A. to help your son move in, fly back on August 24 — and then get ready to drive out to Cali again with your beagle on Sept. 6 — just 12 da…

Lots of times I’ve heard Robby say that, next to me, Teddy’s his favorite dog. Teddy’s a yellow Lab, and Robby used to pet him all the time when he was watching football games with his friend Ryan. You might think this would make me jealous, but act…
