Chetspeak on Sunday
That was when I got a bad shock. We were in a kind of office – desk, chairs, computer, none of that shocking – and standing by the desk was the cop who’d spoken to Rick, also not shocking. The shocking part was the clown sitting in one of the chairs. I’d seen clowns on TV. They scare me every time, and this was much worse. The clown had a horrible white face with a red mouth and green eyes and nasty orange hair sprouting out of his head here and there. And it wasn’t just the sight of him: how about the smell? Partly he smelled like Livia Moon, who operated a house of ill-repute, whatever that may be, in Pottsdale, and partly he smelled like a human male. I hardly ever go backward, but I was going backward now, and barking my head off.
“Easy, Chet,” said Bernie.
“Dogs hate me,” said the clown.

Gooood morning, everyone! Gotta love Chetspeak, no clowning around 🙂 Happy Egg Day too.
It’s a serendipity Sunday.
8:44 am on August 11th, 2013
Good Morning HOH and All!
Chetspeak, Egg Day, and Serendipity Sunday, AND (not normal for me) a PJ morning!
The hike yesterday before the show took a bit out of me. This morning I am still in my PJs, drinking my coco, catching up on the catalogs of stuff I can’t afford, listening to Bach, listening to dogs snoring whilst sitting with my back on the heating pad.
Heaven . .
Beautiful day. Sunny with a wake up temperature of 47 degrees.
8:57 am on August 11th, 2013
I have never liked clowns either Chet.
Listening to Bach sounds like an excellent idea. How about the Brandenburg Concertos.
Good morning all.

Rio: Yes, Broadchurch is the name of the town.
Beautiful photo of the sunset Staff…or Alice.
9:34 am on August 11th, 2013
Good morning all. Happy Egg Day! Love Chetspeak, and we are in agreement about the clown thing.
Having coffee and reading Dogtripping, grass cutting and grocery run later on. Have a huge Caspian Pink tomato ready for a grilled cheese sandwich.
9:35 am on August 11th, 2013
Morning all. Happy Sunday and just say no to clowns!
9:41 am on August 11th, 2013
John Wayne Gacy, the Chicago serial killer, painted clown pictures while in prison. People bought them. We could never figure out why!
9:43 am on August 11th, 2013
Good morning, Happy Egg Day! Glad you had a good show, Royal Mum.
Sorry we disappeared last evening after posting pictures. Mom and Pop decided to go out to dinner at their favorite outdoor dining spot. We were in charge of things here, so we had no time (no access) for the blog.
This morning, we are all relaxing on the front porch watching the you-know-whats in their tractor just off the porch.
Staff, clean out Alice’s box!!!!
9:45 am on August 11th, 2013
I never get my lav cleaned out between changes.
(Whispering) Daddy was too scared of clowns to read that part of TFAT!
9:52 am on August 11th, 2013
Melanie, about getting those chicks into the black box: we never laughed so hard. Every time they opened the lid to put a second one in, the first one flew back out. Heh heh!
The only bad part of the kennel they are using is that when they are catching them to take them back to their coop, some of them stick their heads out thru the openings. Mom thinks she will need to put up some kind of netting or wire inside it.
10:03 am on August 11th, 2013
How did we get from Jesters to Clowns? Will have to look that one up.
YSAS played a jester in one of Bill’s plays. He was Pompey in Measure for Measure. His main prop was a rubic cube. He messed with it all through the play. At the end, I believe he had the last words, he did one last twist, and finished the puzzle. Even the adults believed he had solved it. Snicker . . He had two cubes.
10:11 am on August 11th, 2013
Clowns! Yark! We all Remember Pennywise. Shudder.
Chet: I’m with you…I’d be barking my head off too.
Never mind all that. A Serendipity Sunday it is!
10:13 am on August 11th, 2013
After a quick look up, it’s not “from Jesters to Clowns”. They were around at the same time, and had diferrent roles in society.

Good Morning Everybody!

Melanie: Couldn’t get the Links to work…will try Later. It is interesting that Clowns and Jesters were around at the same time.
We always think of the Court Jester entertaining royalty and then the Circus Clown entertaining the masses.
Breaking Bad! Tonight!
11:10 am on August 11th, 2013
Melanie: Thanks for the clown/jester info. Mom never thought about it before, but she does’t care for clowns. Her least favorite part of a circus.
Staff: Did you get enough reminders?
11:25 am on August 11th, 2013
Now the links are working…very interesting background on clowns and jesters. Thanks, Melanie.
Wikipeda is asking for donations…reminding us of the semi-annual PBS fundraisers.
Red Skelton did clown paintings.
11:35 am on August 11th, 2013
HOH, Mom sort of likes clowns,but he does not like circuses. Too many animals treated badly.
11:57 am on August 11th, 2013
Chet, we don’t like clowns either. They aren’t funny.
Good Morning All
12:12 pm on August 11th, 2013
Posing a question: Has anyone familiar with newfs noticed that their hair is chameleon like? When attached to one, it resembles a dog. Small bits masquerade as spiders or bugs. Bigger bits like rats and large hunks like chihuahuas.
12:30 pm on August 11th, 2013
Melanie, we just sent you several photos for you to do your magic on. First time Mom used the IPad for the pictures. Let us know if she needs to retake any of them.

12:31 pm on August 11th, 2013
Oh, and good morning, everyone! Love Chet on Sundays!
12:42 pm on August 11th, 2013
OK the litter is clean. It happened late but earlier than yesterday. I also had to do some upkeep on the monarch caterpillars. Three are in the j shape and two are munching and one tried to go on walkabout. He even walked about on me for a while but he finally consented to return to the milkweed. I think he is looking for a place to ‘j’ also.
http://www.thebutterflysite.com/life-cycle.shtml
Watching the caterpillar change makes me think of the Borg taking over Captain Picard on Star Trek. It looks painful and completely alters the caterpillar. It starts at the back of the caterpillars ‘neck’ and green stuff encases the whole body…the last thing that happens is…THE FACE DROPS OFF.
Total transformation and very very weird.
12:44 pm on August 11th, 2013
I’m with Chet on clowns. I’d bark too if I could the bark justice.
1:05 pm on August 11th, 2013
O’Howlers, i can just picture the chickens with their heads poking out from the transport, and a fly by snatch by one of youse guys. I think your mom has a good idea.
The best clowns I have seen were with the Cirque du Soleil.
I have just finished dowsing for the spetic tank opening. I’ve marked it, and will get a nephew to dig! It is about where I thought it was from where I thought it was from the picture.
I’m a good dowser, YSAS is better.
1:10 pm on August 11th, 2013
Butterfly Metamorphosis…Faces dropping off?!
Paws over eyes…I can’t watch.
1:11 pm on August 11th, 2013
Gus and BB, you might want to retake the Kat one . . All others look great.
Staff, THE FACE FALLS OFF? Oh, yuck.
HOH, yes to all. snicker . . A friend of ours on that Facethingy posted a picture of all the fur she had just combed out of her Newf. She had it shaped like a Newf. it was as big as her dog.
1:11 pm on August 11th, 2013
Melanie: What do you use for a Dowsing Stick?
1:18 pm on August 11th, 2013
A big black dog just snuck into our turf via the creek path. We ran him off. Mom was proud, because you see, the chickies were out and he was heading their way. Now Pop walked over there to investigate. There is loud machinery doing something, and that guy must be one of the workers.
1:39 pm on August 11th, 2013
Time for Sunday Brunch!
1:44 pm on August 11th, 2013
O’Howlers, you sure it wasn’t a bear?
BearSpiritDog, I do not use a stick. I use rods. I hold on to them at chest height with the rods pointed straight ahead, and with what I’m looking for clear in my mind – not always an easy task – walk. The rods will cross or spread apart, depending on what I’m dowsing, at the point I’m over whatever it is.
It is fun doing it with the Pack. They are so full of energy that the rods just move when they around.
My rods are made from metal hangers placed in wooden dowels. This way they swing free without contact with my hands.
1:52 pm on August 11th, 2013
BSD: Sounds and looks like fun. Herd or Pack discounts available? Melanie’s pack could blurr by, pick us up and wowser…
1:59 pm on August 11th, 2013
It was a very nice Lab. Pop said he is a youngster. His person now knows not to let him come over here.
Grass cutting time. BBL
3:34 pm on August 11th, 2013
Oleys, Same here, grass cutting time. Did the front, now time to do the sides and part of the back.
Finished up Dogtripping, and it was a fun you-know-what. Couple of interesting tidbits from the book. First of all, did anyone ever notice that he mentions Taco Bell in every book? We always wondered why. Thought maybe they made donations to his rescue organization to get mentioned in the books. Well his wife Debbie is a retired big shot from Taco Bell.
Secondly, Tara, Andy Carpenter’s Golden, will never die in the series. She was 7 when he wrote the first A.C. book, which would make her 17 now. Pretty much impossible for a Golden, which has about a 12 year average life span. In his new book Tara is now 9, and may always stay 9, or even go back to 7. He says his readers have to understand that Tara will live forever, his tribute to Debbie’s first dog named Tara. He says if Andy is old and in a nursing home, Tara will still be 9 and sitting at his side.

Sunday!….Afternoon Baseball!….Woooooo!….We are downstairs and ready to place ball!…burp!
4:14 pm on August 11th, 2013
Barb!….Interesting about Taco-Bell and Tara never aging…sniff!…Someone here says she was so stressed out the other day she actually went and got the Volcano Nachos from Taco-Bell…grunt!…Said it was covered in jalepenos and very spicy – she liked it a lot…heh!heh!…She has not eaten at a Taco-B since highschool…grunt!
4:28 pm on August 11th, 2013
Of all the fast food joints, Taco Bell smells the best when we are driving down the street.
Barb, We really like that Tara will live forever in those books.

I’m headed back under the quilt today. For all youse there, let me know your requests for snacks. My Lady says I can stop to pick up hot wings on the way—they’re for medicinal purposes only.

Woo Hoo, Rio, the TV is once again fixed.
5:21 pm on August 11th, 2013
Wooooo!….For a while there SiberH, I thought you were going to miss the whole series and the World Series too…sneeze!…Thank Dawg it is fixed. How will you spend that extra 30.00 bucks from the cable company?…snort!…Hey, I know. Spend it on some Auction Items….woooooo!
5:22 pm on August 11th, 2013
First monarch is in chrysalis. Two others soon. I missed watching it once again but here is a picture with the little head on the bottom of the ice cream pail. Don’t look if you are squeemish…snicker.
5:32 pm on August 11th, 2013
You know what, Rio, Spending my extra $30 bucks on auction items isn’t a bad idea.
5:36 pm on August 11th, 2013
Staff!….You should have been a Zoology teacher…snort!…What with your knowledge of bird migration, birds in general, worms, butterflies, Kats, mice, bats and flower knowledge…wheeze!…Not to mention your love of exploding things…heh!

Cont.!…I left out your love of all things Pug and old sewing machines…heh!burp!

we think our Mama is a little soft in the head. First, she does a 3-day show where the floor was constructed of tiles made of rock. Plus, the parking lot is a LOOOOONGGGG way from the museum, and she had to make numerous treks out there each day (The Storyteller wasn’t quite up to that walk). And the restrooms were all upstairs from the show and the elevator stopped working. Very hard on the feet and legs.
They got home last night, and this morning went off to a gem and mineral show in a huge convention center, once again on hard, concrete floors. They were there for hours, shopping for treasures to make jewelry.
Then when they finally left there, they stopped at Costco for some steaks and other necessities, and walked and walked for miles on that concrete floor. Plus, they forgot that this is tax-free weekend, so the whole world was shopping for TV’s and tires, and jewelry and other expensive toys. This made the lines very long and slow moving.
Now, Mama is whining about her feet and legs hurting. Sheesh. Wonder why?
But she did bring us “made in USA’ dog treats, so we will be nice to her and not laugh at her gimping around like an ancient old granny.
5:45 pm on August 11th, 2013
The Turtleman is the one who got me into Monarchs. He told me about Journey North/South. I have watched him at schools showing kids about butterflies. It was very interesting. He is the one who should have been a Zoologist.
6:03 pm on August 11th, 2013
Rio: It’s not my teeth this time. It is my eyes and my energy. My Lady says I’m lethargic whatever that is.
Golinka: you can elevate your tired paws on me. I make a great pillow.
6:09 pm on August 11th, 2013
Mr Tenzing!…You’ve just described me and Beau all over….snort!yawn!…The only thing keeping me awake is the smell of roast in the crockpot…sniff!sniff!slurp!
6:20 pm on August 11th, 2013
Staff!…The Turtleman cannot be responsible for all the other quirky things about you…heh!heh!…You have to take full responsibility for all that other stuff…snort!
6:21 pm on August 11th, 2013
TurtleMan!….If the TurtleMan ended up as a Zoologist we would not have our most awesome Passports…sniff!…I do not think he was meant to be a Zoologist, no not at all…chuffle!
6:56 pm on August 11th, 2013
WOOOOO!….The Rockies have swept the Pittsburg Pirates!….Wow!…snort!…Maybe there is hope afterall….sniffle!
Celebrate!…This calls for some music!….Wooooooo!

T&G”s Mama: My back hurt just reading about your day!
Tenzing: Please take good care of yourself.
Rio, Siber, Rose and Staff: Whoo hoo with you. We are shaking our puppy butts.
7:51 pm on August 11th, 2013
HOH – the back is fine – the feet are burning, aching, throbbing and ouching.
Rio and Siber – glad to hear that your Rocks are rolling.
Mama is going to go play with her new beads and stones and stuff from the show, and then she is going to BED
8:13 pm on August 11th, 2013
Project!….Wow. My friend has rolled more paper today than she has in a long time….heh!…She says it is for a special project for The Auction. But only if it turns out the way she imagines it will…grunt!…I think her fingers are as sore as Golinka’s poor feet…sniff!sniff!
8:20 pm on August 11th, 2013
Tenzing, Mom said I have that lethargic disease too. It could be from not eating. She is worried about that too. She said she is calling the you-know-what tomorrow. I say just give me some tome under the quilt with my buddies, and all will be well.
T&G, Mom’s feet are aching real bad too. She wasn’t on any concrete. We don’t get it. She couldn’t even walk the farm tonight. She had to get on Annie and let her do the walking. How are we to do all those hikes in the mountains in another week and a half?
8:22 pm on August 11th, 2013
Bella, I can’t imagine you without those long, beautiful, curly locks. I hope your belly-rubbing talents were not affected by the pixie do.
8:36 pm on August 11th, 2013
Howlers!….Burn Notice is so good this year…snort!…I am really going to miss this show when it is gone…sniff!…All the good ones are going away. WHY?…gah!
8:38 pm on August 11th, 2013
Howlers!….Tell your Maw to roll a tennis ball under her feet…sniff!…That is what a chiropractor told my friend to do when her feet hurt. It breaks down the tissue that builds up or sumthing…grunt!…Anyways, she is always stealing our tennis balls and using them on her feet. It is a fun game trying to get them away from her…chorkel!grunt!
8:52 pm on August 11th, 2013
That’s a great idea, Rio. She also has these things called Yoga Toes. I’ll tell her to try both of those.
8:53 pm on August 11th, 2013
House shaking boomers here. We need to hold mom and she says she’ll read to us so, nighty night
8:53 pm on August 11th, 2013
We can’t even think about no more Michael Westin. Sniff
9:01 pm on August 11th, 2013
Michael!…Four lousy episodes to go…sniff!
9:03 pm on August 11th, 2013
Maskers!…Are youse guys staying up for the first of the last episodes of Breaking Bad tonight???…wheeze!…Someone here is torn. I vote we stay up and watch it now instead of waiting for ON Demand…grunt!…EXCITED. To say the least….burp!
9:08 pm on August 11th, 2013
Rio: I could perk up for some roast.
Dima: I’ve got a spot saved for you under the quilt. Sometimes a fellow just doesn’t feel like eating, but not eating does make our Ladies worry so.
I can guarantee that belly rubbing talents were not effected by the pixie do. The Giant loves her haircut. Mick and Jodi, the people not the puppies couldn’t believe their eyes. I’ve been trying to get a picture of my Lady’s pixie do but the flash isn’t working and it is a very grey, dark day.
9:12 pm on August 11th, 2013
We can’t wait to see it. We are going beddy bye now tho. Good night.
9:30 pm on August 11th, 2013
Hair!….But you won’t see her hair – it’s all gone for some dog-gone charity….snort!…No one ever told me what it was all about anyways or how much she raised for her 18 inches of beautiful curly-tail hair….grunt!
9:37 pm on August 11th, 2013
NOOO!….We could have watched the new ep of Breaking Bad starting at 7:00….grunt!…Now we can watch the last half or wait till 9:30 for it to be repeated…grump!…What the hell. All week they have advertised it starting at 9:00…grrrrrr!…@ssholes.
9:39 pm on August 11th, 2013
Grump!….We are going for a short walk and dragging gimpy Beau behind us…gRRRRRuuuuMMMP!

The following is based on actual events that took place yesterday at the discount hair salon:
Me: I want to cut my hair for Locks of Love.
Stylist: How much do you want to donate?
Me: As much as possible. I want a pixie cut when it’s said and done.
Stylist: Really? I was just saying this morning that I wish someone would come in and let me chop off a pony tail and do what I want with their hair.
Me: Knock yourself out.
Stylist: You can comfortably give twelve inches. Do you want to do more?
Me: Yes.
Stylist: Okay. I’m going to do fifteen and then see what we have to work with.
(snip, snip, snip)
Stylist: How short do you want your pixie cut?
Me: Can you cut off all the curl?
Style: We’d have to shave your head.
Me: Okay. Do what you want.
Before:
11:01 pm on August 11th, 2013
After with my belly rubbing talents still in tact.
11:04 pm on August 11th, 2013
Rebecca!…snort!….snorkel!…You are beautiful!…wheeze!
11:06 pm on August 11th, 2013
Curls!…Thank Dawg they did not cut off all your curls…heh!sneeze!…Then you would have looked like something else all together…chuffle!
11:12 pm on August 11th, 2013
Rio: I’ve been partial to my Lady for quite some time. I thought she was the most prettyful mama since the day we met—this is, of course, why I marked her as my own. I was cute and easy to forgive and we’ve been each other’s ever since. My Lady is like a pug—neither would be the same without a little curl. Snort!
11:15 pm on August 11th, 2013
Rebecca have you ever had really short hair before. You will love it. It is so easy to take care of. Wash it shake it and go.
This is Abbie helping test Dawson’s quilt.
11:18 pm on August 11th, 2013
Curl!….Hey! I do have something in common with the Lady Giant…snort!…Curly. Not that I’ve ever seen mine. I just take it on faith that my tail is curly and that is that…heh!
11:22 pm on August 11th, 2013
A friend posted this picture on Facebook along with the comment “Don’t look him in the eye”. He was chased by this fellow today.
11:23 pm on August 11th, 2013
Staff: You and I have the same hairstyle! It’s been a long time since I’ve had hair this short. I grow it out and cut it every three years to donate for Locks of Love. I think the shortest I’ve every donated is 12 inches. Yesterday was a tie for my record of 18 inches. I’ve learned not to be too precious about my hair—it grows fairly fast and it is going to be what it is with the curl. The quilt is beautiful.
Rio: Locks of Love collects human hair to make wigs for cancer patients. The ponytail needs to be at least 10 inches long. From my understanding it takes three ponytails to make one wig. Yesterday makes my third ponytail to send in for one wig. I’ve had women tell me they’d pay thousands for my hair, so why not give it to someone who really needs it.
11:28 pm on August 11th, 2013
Rooster!….My friend says she was chased by roosters all the time when she was little and had to gather the eggs…grunt!…Seriously, after she left home she did not eat eggs till she was about 23…sniff!…Even then they brought back rooster nightmares…wheeze!…There are old movies of her older brother carrying a big stick around. Rooster protection
Or was it for Rooster teasing?…heh!heh!
11:31 pm on August 11th, 2013
Breaking Bad!….grunt!…Finally going to start. *the second time tonight* Grump!…We are debating but want to see the very firstness of it all…heh!

Maskers!…Yark! and Yeeep!
11:35 pm on August 11th, 2013
Rio: Maybe your Friend will let you stay up late so you can watch your program.
11:40 pm on August 11th, 2013
Wigs!…Okay, now I get why you chopped yer hair off…sniff!…I just hope whoever gets your locks are seriously happy about them. Hell, those locks have been to the Top Of The World and back a couple of times. Those locks have been through 3 Iditarod Races! Those locks have met the Charming Mr. Abrahams and his side-kick Spencer, or is it the other way around, I get confused. Those locks have met some very special Plunderers. Those Locks have known a lot of happiness and pain. I hope those Locks go to a very deserving bald head…wheeze!
11:46 pm on August 11th, 2013
Rio: I’ve never thought about my locks like that before. I’m as happy to give them as I hope the recipient is to receive them.
11:50 pm on August 11th, 2013
Locks!…Yea, well I like to keep all my stuff in my bed. And that is how I roll. My stuff is my stuff is always my stuff…grunt!…I don’t give it away or lend it or take loans out on it…wheeze!…Mine is mine.
11:52 pm on August 11th, 2013
Rebecca you put the Pixie in pixie cut! Even your little face is heart shaped
11:53 pm on August 11th, 2013
Rio: They way you’ve explained it, what’s Beau’s is also belongs to you.
11:55 pm on August 11th, 2013
Rebecca!…I do have to say that you look very lovely with short “curly” hair…snort!…And I guess your heart was in the right place when you gave that precious curly long hair away….sniff!…All I know is I can never be like you. I have my pug rules and that all I know…sniff!…Unless my friend forces me…gah!..But she would never make me give up my fur…sniff!…Would she?
11:55 pm on August 11th, 2013
Good night most. Good Morning Liz
11:59 pm on August 11th, 2013
Rebecca!…Beau has no idea, but Yes. Everything he thinks is his is really mine….snort!…He is still learning this huge lesson…heh!
12:03 am on August 12th, 2013

Miss Macy: You’re making me blush. Tenz sure could use a dainty lick if you wouldn’t mind bluring by the Quilt.
Rio: If anyone tries to collect your pug fur, send them my way and I’ll give in your stead.

***Announcement***
Thanks to the Have Harness, Will Travel campaign AJ was able to order new harnesses for the upcoming season. AJ will have a musher to mutt talk with Doc and Charlie about what to eat—food and meat—and what not to eat—harnesses, booties, and dog jackets. Thanks to the generosity of all youse and for the fund raising efforts of R$R, Inc. he was able to order lines and cables to replace those that did not survive the season. But, wait! There’s more!
As seems to be the nature of the Kennel, our four-wheeler we use for fall training broke down. D-E-A-D. Fall training is just around the corner. The mechanic told us it would cost more to fix it than it is worth—we’ve been told the same about each and every one of our dog trucks. Yet, because of all youse and your going above and beyond support we had funds left over from the Have Harness, Will Travel campaign to put toward a new-to-us four-wheeler. It needed some work to get it running properly which is why it was so cheap, but thanks to Mick, the mechanically inclined person, not the puppy, it is ready for the first run of the season tomorrow!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Nighty noodles.
