The Sound You Heard…

…is UGA VII turning over in his grave.

UGA VII

For those of you who aren’t from Georgia, and haven’t a clue just how important the UGA mascot is, there have been seven.   They are a very special breed of English Bulldog owned by Savannah native, Sonny Seiler.  An earlier UGA was featured in “Midnight In The Garden of Good And Evil”, and the only person to out act him was Kevin Spacey!  UGA is usually a “damn good dawg!”.

The last one went home to be with the Lord just last week after suffering from heart failure, mercifully prior to the Georgia Kentucky game on Saturday.  I, along with millions of Georgia fans are glad that UGA VII did not see that.

But, I digress… PETA has suggested that The University of Georgia could use an “animatronic dog” or a person in a Bulldog costume.

I don’t think so!

According to WGAU, a local Athens, GA radio station, PETA has forwarded this suggestion to the Athletic Director at the University. 

An email was sent to AD Damon Evans, and reads in part,  ”It is time for the university to put an end the cycle of suffering endured by dogs who are brought into the world solely to represent the school’s ‘brand.’ ”

Oh, please, that dog had an air condititoned dawg house! 

OH, YEAH, THIS IS A DAWG'S LIFE!

Suffering, again…

I don’t think so!

The politically correct have taken the Braves, Indians, Orangemen, and other ’sensitive’ mascots away.  This has to end!

GEORGIA!  Let them hear  you HOWL! 

and Sonny, we’re waiting on UGA VIII!

Now Ah-nold’s InTrouble…

Ya just gotta’ love those people at TMZ…they won’t let the Schwarzeneggers alone now will they?  Only a month ago, they caught the Califonia First Lady in the act of DWT  (driving while talking on her cell phone), and this week, they calught The Governator parking his Porsche in a red zone.

NON GREEN CAR IN A RED ZONE
One report says he was ticked, but he wasn’t. 
His spokesperson “declined comment”. 
Hmmmmm.

The ticket would have been about 90 bucks.

I think he can afford it.

Earlier in the week the Gov was on Leno chatting it up about “green cars”, and his commitment ot promoting green vehicles.

Are Porches in that? 

I don’t think so Arnie!!

He also told Jay he’d not had a speeding ticket in six years…parking tickets were not mentioned.

Back to Maria for a second, it seems that after hanging up from her cell phone, the first lady parked her Escalade (again, not a green car) in a red zone as well.   Naughty, naughty, naughty!

Governor S. says the his red zone parking was a mistake, he didn’t see it.   What, California doesn’t have vision?

“No one’s perfect, not even me.”, he offered.

I guess since it’s Thanksgiving week, ‘His Austrian Oakness’ can be thankful that they both weren’t ticketed (if he really was) …that 90 bucks thing can add up.

I guess  you CAN  break the law if you have the money!
