Stupid Noisy Thing!

That stupid thing that makes a lot of noise in the morning and wakes us up yelled for an hour and 7 minutes before my Human made it shut up! We've gotten pretty good at ignoring it, but still!!!! It was Fargo who finally woke my Human up by poking her!

And then my Human didn't take the time to play with us and let us watch that stupid TV before she left for her stupid job!

I could have woken her up sooner to make that stupid thing shut up, but I was in my box. All because of that stupid Lex, of course!!

More Storms

It stormed again last night. A lot. And it was loud! It's supposed to be hot today and for the next several days.

My Human used to live in Athens, Georgia. She said that in the summer everyday the forecast was the same:

SATURDAY: High in the mid to upper 90's with a 80% chance of afternoon thunderstorms
SUNDAY: High in the mid to upper 90's with a 80% chance of afternoon thunderstorms
MONDAY: High in the mid to upper 90's with a 80% chance of afternoon thunderstorms
TUESDAY: High in the mid to upper 90's with a 80% chance of afternoon thunderstorms
WEDNESDAY: High in the mid to upper 90's with a 80% chance of afternoon thunderstorms
THURSDAY: High in the mid to upper 90's with a 80% chance of afternoon thunderstorms
FRIDAY: High in the mid to upper 90's with a 80% chance of afternoon thunderstorms

I hate storms and I hate hot weather.

Tubey Is Influential

I don't care what that stupid Lex says...I am important! I am influential. Charlie the Big Dog sent me this photo that shows my name as the verification word on Blogger. Of course it was totally random and not at all manipulated. It proves that Blogger loves the Tube Wolf!


Also, as further proof of my influence. All my house mates (with the exception of the stupid Gecko) now have blogs of their own. You can find their links at the bottom of my "Dog Blog" links. Yeah, technically my Human and that stupid Dyson Animal are not dogs, but I kept them there for consistency sake.

Brave Roo Roo

A beetle was trying to take Aurora on.


But Aurora kept her eye on it.

Bye-Bye, Mr. Lay

As you may recall, Kenneth Lay gave my Human's alma mater a lot of money to endow a chair (in his name) in economics. The University has had trouble getting someone to sit in the chair.

Mr. Lay is now among the former pie eaters of the world. I thought I'd post his obituary that was in the local newspaper. It's over the top.

Human Language Is Still Stupid

Humans sometimes eat things such as pancakes, French toast, and waffles. Sometimes they pour syrup on their food. Sometimes that syrup is fake maple flavored. Sometimes the syrup is called "butter flavored." You'd think that the syrup would taste like butter because of the name, but no. It still tastes like fake maple syrup.

And sometimes humans go to a building and watch movies on a screen on the wall. They sometimes get popcorn to munch on. And sometimes that popcorn has a gooey liquid poured onto it that is "butter flavoring." It does not taste like fake maple syrup. It's taste is reminiscent of butter.

So, my words of advice today is to beware of liquidy "butter flavor." It could be fake maple syrup or fake butter.

Some Siberian Huskies have formed a Butter Club. They even have a constitution. They know the difference!

At It Again!



Updated!!!


Stupid Lex did his stupid hacking again!!! He defaced my photo! Fortunately the good dogs behind Dogs With Blogs were able to secure the site and clear up Lex's mess.



See what happens when I have to be in the crate!

Husky Logo #16

I don't remember talking about the University of Washington Husky logo yet. I found a website that has a competition to choose the favored husky logo.

The University started out with the mascot of the Sun Dodgers. They called their mascot "Sunny Boy!" But in 1923 they realized that they were really stupid to have that and they wised up and got the Husky.


I think that the logo below was the winner. And I think I like it best.


I like the next logo the least (It's just a stupid "W"):


I think this logo from 1937 looks like what the child would look like if a Sibe and a cat had a baby!


(Ssshhh!!! I still think the Northeastern University Husky is the best mascot!)

Abita Turbodog

My Human found a beer a few years ago called Turbodog. It's made in Louisiana by the Abita company. After she found it, she bought a Turbodog hat and t-shirt.

I'm definitely in favor of products named after me.

Turbo Poll

Less Squitos


I'd like to make a motion that instead of more squitos we have less squitos. Hear me out. What do they do? Suck blood, fly around, procreate, carry diseases, and buzz. I don't think that we need to have any of those things.

We have wetlands around our house and the mosquitos like them. I've noticed this year that we have larger black mosquitos than we've seen around here before. So far I've not noticed that they've injected any of us.

My Human used to live in Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada. She learned on her first day there that you really shouldn't go walking down by the river without bug repellent in the evening time.

STUPID LEX IS STUPID!!

I don't know how he did it, but Lex hacked into my blog! Sure, I could have deleted it, but I decided not to 'cause I wanted you to see just how stupid he is!

I went ahead and changed my password. He's not as sneaky as he thinks he is!

#$%#^$#*!!!!

I'm Lex is the Best!

So Turbo's I've been stupid! Lex is the best dog in the world...definitely a lot better than me, the stupid Tube-Tube. So everything that I've written about him is totally wrong. I just wanted all my readers to know that I've been really stupid. Yeah, that's right TURBO IS I AM THE STUPID DOG, NOT LEX.

From now on Turbo's I'm gonna give him all my treats and not be selfish.

Independence Day (Fourth of July)

Fireworks are stupid!!! And they are loud!!! We live out in the country. If we were in the city, fireworks would not be legal for private citizen to explode. But out here, they're considered a mighty-fine thing. Out here the humans think that it's fun to blow stuff up real good. (My Human wants you to know 2 things: 1) she took that photo above on the right several years ago at a big fireworks show in our town and 2) she's not planning on blowing anything up.)

And speaking of stupid, I've noticed that it always thunderstorms around the 4th of July! Both lightning & thunder are stupid! I have this theory that the smoke from the fireworks and the bbq's feeds the clouds and that causes the storms. It stormed all last night.

My Human does not have to go to that stupid job she has today. I think I heard her say something about giving all of us (except Niki) baths. Niki is excluded because of her tendency to sink her teeth into my Human's hand.

New Template

I've revised my World of Turbo blog look. I got the template from the Eris Free site. I decided that my blog needed a new look to go with my new logo.

Newspaper

Cartoons and stupid tv shows sometimes show dogs bringing the newspaper in for their humans. My Human is allergic to newsprint, so we don't have the paper delivered. But if we did, you could be that none of us would be helping with this chore.

My Human once had a landlady who was quite fond of German Shepherds. She got them to bring the paper in for her. One dog in particular proudly marched down the driveway and picked up the paper. But instead of bringing the paper back to his human, he passed her by and shred the newspaper as he should have.

I salute this particular German Shepherd. He seems worthy of an honorary membership into the Siberian Husky Society.

Adult Human Treat

I found this recipe while I was googling husky "mind meld:"

Siberian Husky

Ingredients:
1 oz. Chambord Raspberry Liqueur
1 oz. Vodka
1 oz. Cream
3 Scoops Ice Cream

Mixing instructions:
Put ice cream in blender first, pouring liquids over top. Blend to the consistency of milk shake. Serve in large rocks, 12 oz. Top with a cherry.


Glass Type: Shot Glass

Sneaky Roo Roo

Aurora is a sneaky little girl. She likes tricking us into giving up something that we want. Example, I love the center tube of a roll of toilet paper. My Human usually gives it to me to destroy. But Roo Roo will stare at me and make me so agitated that I charge her. She'll then calmly take the tube and run off with it.

Roo Roo really thinks her cuteness is so irresistible to others that she can apply husky mind control whenever and wherever she decides too. A good example of this was when my Human's friend Large Oh was visiting last year for my Human's birthday. Large Oh had made a birthday cake. It was a white cake with cherry filling and chocolate chips. After the cake was finish, Large Oh and my Human were eating it in the living room. Roo Roo climbed up on Large Oh's lap and lay upside down to encourage belly rubs. Roo Roo was hoping that she was so adorable that Large Oh would set down her cake. Large Oh did find Roo Roo awful cute, but she liked her cake more. So, she stretched her arm out so that the cake was out of Roo Roo's reach. Roo Roo kept stretching her body and Large Oh kept stretching her arm. Ultimately, Large Oh won the battle and Roo Roo didn't get any cake.

Happy Tubey Month!

Don't forget that Tubey Month starts today!

Husky Logo #15

My Human sometimes buys the Husky brand of trash bags. She gets them at the Home Depot. Again, what's with these companies that don't have a picture of a husky in their logo?!
