Talking Animals

I have a new motto. Sounds silly, but it makes a lot of sense.... to me that is. I guess it's a male thing, we sure like to water trees.

"Handle every situation like a dog would. If you can't eat it or hump it, piss on it and walk away."

As the west burns it makes you appreciate that the world is far from controlable. We all feel that in the northeast when our oil runs out or when we are trapped at home by 3 feet of snow. What fires make you appreciate are a few things to me.... save your pictures. put negatives (if anyone still has them) in the safe deposit box and have a ladder at home to let you out upper story windows. Not sure what to tell you if you live in a city. One other safety tip, keep an emergency first aid kit in your trunk.

Getting back to where we started, one of my favorite film and tv devices is the talking animal. that ad for sleeping pills where abe lincoln, the deep sea diver and the beaver all hang out is made by the talking beaver. The best part about talking animals is giving them accents, the more unlikely the better. A siamese cat with a Brooklyn accent is just plain funny. Mismatch is is the reason perhaps?

Well, time to go live some life and stop writing about it.
