El Mustachio-Wordless Wednesday...sort of

For Chris' best friend Ando's Bachelor Party in New Orleans last weekend there was a requirement to grow a mustache for 4 weeks before the big weekend....um gross.  So they spent last weekend lurking around NOLA looking a little creepy and a lot like pedophiles...and I hate to admit this but sort of cool :)

Kiki vs. Sophie

So the company that I work for has a monthly magazine with a small 1/3 page article that spotlights employee pets.  Since I have worked for my current employer I have dreamed that one day my cute and adorable dog would someday get her own expose in the magazine.  Little did I know Kiki would victim of some sort of HATE CRIME!

Actual Magazine excerpt below:

To set the record straight I sent several amazing photos of Kiki into the magazine.  When I was told Kiki was selected to be in the magazine I was told that they would be highlighting "Summertime Pets" and that they were going to use the picture of Kiki on the boat.  While I was mad that Kiki was chosen to be in a pet montage... I was content knowing that Kiki would make it into the magazine with our first ever submission.  If I would have only known that it was going to be contest to see who's Maltese would upstage the other I would have sent a caption that read something like this:

"Coming into the ring, originally from Scottsdale AZ,  competing in the light feather weight division, weighing 96 ounces, standing 33.02 centimeters tall, Kiki the I am just as cute as Sophie IF NOT CUTER after I too spend a week at the groomers Leffler"

Seriously? Kiki had just spent 3 hard core hours on a boat wake boarding when this photo was shot and Sophie looks like she just spent a week and half at the spa and then was frozen in some sort of chamber to preserve her freshly groomed hair do!  Also, why does Sophie feel it so important to include her age and weight in her caption?  I mean Kiki is only 6 but if I remember correctly Kiki also weighed 5 pounds when she too was 4.  Oh, and "Summertime Pets????" Does Sophie live in the southern hemisphere?  Kiki was weathering 118 degree temperatures when I shot that photo of her...Sophie looks like she's enjoying an Australian winter!

For the record I also sent in this photo of Kiki:

This is Kiki after she saw the article:

So out of all the photos I sent in and out of all the photos Sophie submitted they picked these two photos to go side by side?  I have spent the past hour and a half talking Kiki off the ledge.  Kiki will not be exploited like this!  The editor can expect to hear from our attorney.

College Football is HERE!

In our household there are few things more sacred than football.  I have to say Chris woke up this morning with an extra spring in his step.   How could he not?  The PAC 10 + 2 is here with 2 new teams, a fatty tv contract and the ASU non devil pitchforks!  While I still bleed cherry and silver (GO BOS!) I have to say cheering for a team that has a coach that does not beat and choke his assistant coaches, sexually harass his secretary and get in altercations with students actually makes me happy.

Dear Mike Locksley, 

I know you love embarrassing us but try and keep it together this year... you have gone 1-11 two years in a row so maybe this year you could try and win 2 games?  If only TCU could have went to the National Championship last year....then we may have had enough money to fire you.  Now this year we get to see both TCU and Bosie State beat us into the ground.  Even my dog hates you.

Love,
The Chairman on the Mike Locksley is the WORST college football coach in America and quite possibly the WORLD club

So heres to the Pac 12 South and ASU!  May you bring us many happy Saturdays this fall because God knows the Lobos will not! GO DEVILS!
