It's a good omen.

You know your day is off to a good start when you get your first good cackle of the morning by clicking over to CNN.com to be greeted with the headline: Dog goes berserk, destroys Elvis' teddy bear.

Don't ask me why, but for some reason that just completely kicked over my giggle box. *Snicker*

  1. $75,000 for a dead guy's teddy bear? Duh?

    Question of the day: Did the dog show good taste, or did the event leave a bad taste in his mouth?

  2. We got a goog giggle out if it this morning, too. It's something that a Dachshund would do, but a well-trained Nazi Attack Dog?

    "I don't know, he just snapped..."

  3. That's one hella expensive chew toy. I believe I'da just stuck with the traditional rawhide bone.

  4. Someone should have a competition for alternate lyrics to the Elvis hit "Teddy Bear" I'm imagining that those old bears were rife with ancient funk from the ghosts of children past: Snotty fingers, earwax, the butter drippings from crumpets. What self-respecting dog could resist?

  5. I'll bet it's just about all the toy's owner can bear - he's probably really torn up over this.

  6. I'm going with phlegmfatale on this one. Having raised a dozen or so German Shepherds and a couple of Dachshunds when younger, I can attest to the fact that nothing excites a dog more than something that reeks. I have seen dogs in ecstasy as they rolled all over a week-dead cat, or enthusiastically chew and eat an entire dry cowpie.

  7. The morning started for me with "India Tries to Chase Monkeys From Trains".
