Oh this one is good John. It brings back so many memories of childhood. As soon as the number of children or pets in the family exceeds 1, you have the problem of figuring out who did what when you come upon a situation like Scott has. It becomes even harder when they are near the same age as my brother and I are. Of course I learned as I got older that my parents had their ways of figuring it out. As for this situation, my guess is that they were playing playing video games and things got physical. Sierra probably hit Bunker with a Blue shell one too many times, Smash Brothers went to it's logical conclusion, or there was some teaming up going on in Burnout. Good to see Sierra is being "positively" influenced by Bunker and Sandusky.

I once had my cousin bring this up in regards to their Pomeranian. My response, "Why are you staring at their butt?" She couldn't come up with an answer for that question.

That's because it's a Pomeranian, and its butt is only a few inches off of the ground. However, Bunker's hindquarters are directly in Scott's line of sight of while he's walking. Plus, Bunker is ten times the size of the average Pomeranian. Sure, Scott could look around at the lovely desert scenery, but, if he wants to make sure he doesn't trip or step in something, it's kind of distracting to the eye. Also, it's like trying not to look at a really really ugly person who's standing next to you. You know you shouldn't look, but it's truly unavoidable.

See, that's a good answer there. I've never really "walked" a large dog. It's always been out in the country where they are trained well enough to stay close by, but otherwise go where they want to. Getting plenty of exercise and coming back covered in Burrs. Of course with Bunker, the presence of bunnies is going make that not an option. Not to mention in town there are leash laws.

Hmmm, Bunker working with duct tape. I see that working about as well as me working with Super Glue. Scott, you probably need to put a block on CNN before Bunker gets any more ideas. Though this isn't any dumber than the time I was 6 years old and tried making a parachute for myself out of a bunch of trash bags. Of course the real reason for Bunker wanting to do this is obvious. He loves sticking his head out the widow while in the car. He probably figures it will be even more fun in a balloon. I say give Bunker the Aluminum foil, duct tape, and string, then set him loose in the garage. Send Sandusky in 4 hours later to play with the giant ball of aluminum foil and duct tape that Bunker has thoroughly wrapped himself up in. ;D

Hmmm, I forgot about National Bologna Day. I think Sandusky is right, that's far more important than Halloween. I need to pick some up tonight. All I have is cheese and bread. Scott, you need to slow down for Sandusky and Bunker. Only ask them one question at a time, they clearly skipped your first question and went straight to the second. Though it wouldn't be that had to make Sandusky into some broccoli. Dye his fur green and glue a few bags of dyed cotton balls to him with Spirit gum. Getting it all cleaned off of him afterward is going to a bit of a pain though. Our dog Patch was terrified of vacuum cleaners as well. Whenever the vacuum was out he would always run to the farthest corner of the house. I have no idea why that is. He wasn't afraid of the Wet/Dry vac though. Though making Bunker into a vacuum cleaner wouldn't be that hard either. Get a piece of circular air ducting with a busted seam, that or a properly sized cardboard box that Bunker can fit underneath. Some flexible dryer vent hose material. Then make the vacuum head with some paper towel tubes and large short box. Have his leash be the cord. Plenty of Duct tape, a little spray paint/aluminum foil, and viola. Bunker could easily terrorize the other dogs with such a costume. He might even save it to use other times of the year. ;D Though of course his vision would be limited to the holes you cut in front of the box. BTW, love the picture behind Bunker and Sandusky in the last frame.

our cats are like that too. Like, they'll just be layining peacefully on a bed taking a snooze until I come barging in with a the vacuum cleaner monster. LOL!! And then I think mentally to myself: "Sorry! It has to be done!"

I just started going through the Caturday thread on Fark.com. You always find the best LOLcat pics on those threads. I found a couple where Sandusky just was the first thought in my mind. I just can't resist posting these ones. I was laughing so hard I was crying after I saw this one. / ;D

YES!! FrankenCougar. ;D I can't tell, did they manage the forehead bit just with a bunch of hair gell? Wonder if we are going to get the green fur or not. Sandusky doing a Frankenstein impression, yea that would be scary. My guess is that either Bunker or Sierra will be other monsters or Bunker gets to be Dr. Frankenstein and Sierra gets to be Igor. Once again, you have to ask the question right Bunker. What's the scariest thing that would work for a costume?

The second picture you posted reminds so much of my youngest cat, it actually looks like something she'd actually do. LOL!! And all that beer in the fridge actually makes me suspicious. I just hope that little kitty didn't have any bright ideas.

Just got back to town and checked Wednesdays comic, so I'm a little late commenting. I was chuckling at the third panel and had absolutely no idea why. I had to go read the synopsis for Young Frankenstein in order to remember it. I had forgotten that little tidbit, yet remembered it enough to laugh at it. Young Frankenstein is one of those movies that I have seen about 5 times, but never from start to finish. Something I watch for a bit while flipping through the channels. So the story and events get all jumbled up. The best part about reading the comic late is that I get to read another comic tomorrow. ;D

Oh this is beautiful John. LOVE the Charlie Brown reference in the first frame. Of course you didn't overdo it Scott. If you have it scary enough you save a ton on candy expenditures as we clearly see here. As for the Black & White. Well, the movie was made in B&W. It also avoids answering the question of if they colored Sandusky's fur or not. Either that or lazy cartoonist. (You know I'm kidding.) I wonder what they were scared off by; their costumes or Sandusky's singing. ;D

What is Sandusky Singing?
I know if you had a red light, everything will either come out in shades of red or grey

What is Sandusky Singing? "Puttin On The Ritz", by Irving Berlin. A popular song around the time that "Young Frankenstein" is set in.
