Tubey Puppy

.

Pippin has requested some pictures of me as a puppy. It seemed like a good idea to me! I've posted some of them before, but I don't care. Enjoy!

Annoying Song!

.

My Human won't stop singing a stupid made-up song:

"Here comes Tubey's claws,
Here comes Tubey's claws
Right down Santa Claus' legs!"


Yeah. Stupid!

I saw on Buster's blog some pictures of his mom & dad. So the picture on the left is of my Human when she was just a little human.

Husky Logo #35

.

(Hey Poseidon, this one's for you and your mama!)



My good friend Poseidon told me about this school. His mama went to school in this town, but her stupid school had a Bulldog for a mascot. You'll notice what type of dog Poseidon is. I don't think his mama has a bulldog!

This was HHS's lunch menu for Friday, Nov 17, 2006:
Cheeseburger, Peanut Butter Sandwich, Pizza, Corn Dog, Tossed Salad, Baked Beans, Peaches, Juice, and Milk.


I would gladly eat all of this!

Taken For A Ride

.

At long last I finally got to ride in the new huskymobile. First it was Meeps, then Lex, then Fargo, AND FINALLY ME!!!!

I got to try out all of the seats, except for the driver's seat. My Human wouldn't let me drive.

My Human and I went to an A&W. I got to lick ice cream off of a spoon. It was pretty good!

Treats!

Look at these big biscuits I found!



Does it count as pirate booty?

No Snow!

.

Once again those stupid weather people lied about the snow! They had snow in the forecast, but they yanked it away and left us only rain!

That stupid Lex was rubbing it in. He said this:
"Ha ha ha, Turbo! You're never going to have snow. Back before you lived with us, we had snow all the time. Even in July! WHO'S STUPID NOW, LITTLE DOG?"


So I had to yell at Lex and stomp my foot a few times. I was so angry with him that I created a poster to inspire everyone:

LET IT SNOW!!!!

.

snow wolvesThere's a chance that it might (just might!) snow tomorrow! Yeah. I've heard that before. Many, many times before! And I'm getting tired of the snow not arriving.

Here's some reasons we demand snow:

1) Me, the T-Wolf
2) Fargo
3) Roo Roo
4) Meepie
5) Niki
6) Even Lex
7) We are Northern Breed dogs
8) My Human doesn't have to work this week
9) We now have a 4 Wheel Drive vehicle

I could go on, but I'm my list stopping now.

Last March I brought up the subject of hiring a lawyer to file a snow suit. Now there are a lot more husky bloggers. Anyone want to join me? It can be a class action snow suit!

I refuse to be disappointed, again!

(Credit for the wolf picture goes to Microsoft. I found the photo in their Clipart Gallery.)

On Broadway

.

I just wanted to let all of you know about my exciting new Broadway show...The Turbo Show!



Here's what the papers are saying about my show:

Huricane Akara Turbofire returns to Broadway after his appearance in the Tony Ward winning revival of Cats. In his one-man show, Turbo offers his acerbic views on views on current events, culture - the New York Yankees and yes, Sammy Davis Jr.! Begins November 13.

Gift

.

My Human had a birthday yesterday...It was one of those milestone birthdays, too. According to Cal the Wonderdog's chart, my Human would be 6 if she was a small dog and 5 if she was a large dog. That means that Niki, Lex, Meepie, and Fargo are all older than she is and me and Roo Roo are younger.

I made my Human a birthday gift:



You'll notice that I was nice enough to include the Durango, the Dyson, and some husky destruction. My Human really seems to enjoy destruction! Fargo complained that I don't show his face. I told him to shut up and he should make his own gift next time!

Husky Logo #34

.

Today I'm featuring the Husky of Albany High School of Minnesota. I don't like this logo. It's really hard to figure out that it's a mighty husky!

Sadly, I couldn't find much info on this husky. When I googled "Albany High School" & MN all that come up were pictures of their bathroom. Humans are weird!

Windows

.
So my Human upgraded our computer and we've been busy downloading all the stupid updates.



Fargo promises a new blog entry later today. But right now he's too busy love-biting my Human and making her jump. That's always helpful when humans are setting up new equipment.

The weather is "nice" for some people, but too hot for huskies!

More later...

Election Day

.

Soon the stupid election will be over. I think that humans have elections so often 'cause they haven't figured out how to do it right!

My friend Holly has a good idea. So have your humans write my name or some other dog's name in as a candidate for every office!

Yeah!

Wooo-ray for Fargo!

.

My good friend Fargo is the Husky Bloggers blogger of the month! He's a good guy. He promises to post more on his blog in a few days.

Below are some of my favorite pictures of him & me:

Husky Logo #33

.

I hope that the huskies in Denmark don't look like the one in this logo! Anyway, today I'm featuring this logo (not one of my favorites). Let's wave our paw at the husky of the Danish wood & timber company Dalhoff Larsen & Horneman A/S.

---------

BTW: This time last week, we had 3 computers in our home that we could use. Now there's just 1. The others are knocked out of commission by modem problems. Stupid. Modem. Problems...

Posting Pictures

.

I've read that lots of my fellow bloggers are having problems posting pictures. What I've been doing for some time is copying the code from a previous post and just pasting the link to the new picture into the code. I also change the size of the photo from this code. Of course if you're using Blogger to host the photo, that won't work. This is why I decided to use a different site (Flickr) to host the photos.

If you want me to e-mail you my cheat sheet, drop me an e-mail...

Tubey Mail

More Stupid...

.

My Human told me that she's going to be really busy from this Friday until the stupid election is over. She works for a company that will be supplying humans to be annoying and call up other humans to persuade them to vote for candidates of a certain party.

Politics are stupid.

Politicians are stupid.

Annoying phone calls are stupid.

If I was running for some stupid political office, this would be my slogan...



Vote for Turbo! Everyone else is stupid!!!

Stupid!!!

Stupid blogger not letting me post last night! Stupid computer having stupid modem problems! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!

Husky Logo #32

.

Apparently, there is only one school in our state that was smart enough to get a husky as their mascot. And today I'm featuring it. Please welcome the Huskies of Ritenour High School!

Mud Husky

.

I was reminded today of a website that I found sometime ago. It describes the breed of Mud Husky.

A couple summers ago a Mud Husky named Kyus visited us. This is her picture on the left.

Baseball is Stupid!!!!

.

I was thinking about the fact that baseball is stupid! It's yet another sport that doesn't have any teams named after dogs!

So this year the stupid "World" Series is between stupid birds and stupid cats. Not much of a world if you think about it. What if there was really a sport with Tigers playing with Cardinals? I guess that the Cardinals would win 'cause they can fly away. Tigers can't fly!

I guess we're supposed to be cheering for the birds at our house 'cause they are more-or-less our local baseball team.

You can tell how excited Meepie and Roo Roo are. They can hardly contain their enthusiasm.

Humans get worked up about the stupidest things...

Center Pee'd

.

So my Human was having a bath bright and early this morning. And I pee'd on the outside of the tub. Not really sure why I did it, other than the obvious reason that it was there!

I don't have a picture of me peeing, but I do have a picture of me in the bathroom retrieving a toilet paper tube:

Excited

.

We are always excited when my Human gets home from her stupid job. We run in and out of the house. My Human lets us jump on the furniture. So for several minutes after her arrival, we have complete husky pandemonium at our house. It's so cool!!!







And then we rest for a while.

Squirrels are Stupid!

(Hi there, Ivy! I sort of stole and modified your blog title!)

Fargo noticed a stupid squirrel was in the big tree!

Oodles of Poodles

.



My Human has told a story a time or two about something that once happened with Lex at the dog park...

Once upon a time when there was just Lex and me, I took him for a walk at the dog park. When we got inside the dog park I noticed that there was about a dozen poodles running around. Lex didn't notice, however. He was too busy sniffing the ground. So all these poodles ran over to see what was so interesting. There were black poodles, white poodles, and apricot poodles in a circle around Lex. They were all Standard Poodles, but some of them were puppies. Lex finally looked up and noticed he was completely surrounded by curly coated dogs. He was pretty startled. The end.


Knowing Lex as I do, I have to assume that he started whining when he discovered he was surrounded by poodles. He whines a lot!

Husky Logo #31

.



Behold the Husky of Houston Baptist University. I think that this is one of the cooler logos that I've found so far. The only thing that would make it better is if it was a red husky like me!

Balance

Sometimes it's best to have a little balance in your life...

Humans are Stupid!

.

Let me start by shouting something: HUMANS ARE STUPID!!!!

My Human read about Meeshka's human woman putting a shirt on her when it was storming. This allegedly helps to calm dogs down in storms...or something stupid like that. So, my Human decided that I needed to wear a shirt. She thought that it might make me not yell at Lex that he was being stupid.

SHE WAS WRONG!!!

Okay, first of all the stupid t-shirt was ORANGE!!! This is NOT a good color for me!!!!!!!!! Then Lex laughed at me, so that ticked me off. And, yes, I still yelled at Lex that he was being stupid!

And my Human is being stupid, too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Turbochef



So last night my Human was watching TV. Nothing weird about that, of course. But she was watching some show that featured new kitchen things. My ears perked up when I heard the word "Turbochef." There's this company that has my name plus the word "chef" that makes ovens and things. Get this, they have an oven that can cook a 12 pound turkey in just 42 minutes!!!

I'd like some turkey, please. And by "please," I mean NOW!!!!!!!!!!!

Sunday Update

.

It's rainy and not hot outside today. Inside, it's not rainy and a bit cool. It's good husky weather.

I still have not been able to ride (or drive) in the new huskymobile yet. My Human is not doing much of anything yet. She's still on-call for work, and she'll have to go to the office for a while this afternoon. She's wearing her sleepy pants (trademark Meeshka) and being lazy. I suggested that she could let me go out for a drive without her, but she turned me down!

Below is an actual picture of the new huskymobile. She needs to get a replacement for the sticker she had on the former huskymobile. It said DOG IS MY CO-PILOT.

Husky Logo #30

.



Last weekend we where hanging out at home watching TV and we found a football game with a Husky team! So today I'm featuring the Northern Illinois University. I think this logo is cool. And the players on the football team were lucky enough to get to have it on their helmets.

Announcement!

.

My Human bought me a new Huskymobile today. But she hasn't let us in it yet! It's like the one in the photo below, but it is white.

Roo Roo Photos for You

.

Roo Roo wanted me to share some photos with you. She's getting a big head 'cause Malechai and Zim think she's cute!

Different Perspectives

.

Sometimes it's good to look at something in different ways:

Ned

.

Another thing that I found while playing around on the internet was this site with info on a Sibe named Ned who was used in in a University of Washington video.

Make sure that you watch the video. Roo Roo says that Ned was really cute, but that she could think of other things to do in the library.

Oracle

.

Some time ago while I was looking for stuff on the internet to discuss I came across a blog written by Mary Ann Davidson, the Chief Security Officer of Oracle. In the August 4, 2006 entry, she discusses her Siberian husky Thunder. She compares some her employees to various dog breeds. Of course she values her employees that most remind her of Siberian huskies.

In closing, here's a photo of Roo Roo and I at home.
