How To Piss Gino Off 101

"Oh, hi!" says Bruno.

"Want to see something funny?
Check out how quickly I can piss Gino off!"

"What the hell is he talking about?" asks Gino.

"You couldn't make me mad even if you tried!" exclaims Gino.

"Here we go!" shouts Bruno.

"Stop that! Stop running with that stick!" shouts Gino.

"Knock it off! No jumping! Ma said it's bad for your hips!"

"Stop chewing on that stick!
Ma said that's why you have no teeth left! STOP IT!"

"Told you it was easy to make hi mad!" says Bruno.

"I really dislike Bruno even more now."

"I'll get him back. You'll see!"

And because I've been really bad with new Mafioso adventures,
here is a gratuitous Mafia shot for you.

And for the Vinnie fans...
some Vinnie Tongue!

And Gino would like the last word before I end this entry...

"For the record, Bruno didn't really piss me off.
I was already grumpy to begin with!" explains Gino.

The Cats Do Speak Their Minds...

"Seriously, can you explain to me one more time why
you thought it was a good idea to bring
THREE dogs into my home?" asks Maggie

"Because they are cute and cuddly you say?
HA! Boy were you ever fooled!"

Blue says "I think this is the first time I have ever agreed with Maggie!"

"Great...here they come."

"I hope they don't see me here."

"Um, Ma said that no animals were allowed on the couches," explains Bruno.

"Huh? What do you mean you're not an 'animal'?"

"Actually," interrupts Gino,
"I think the rule is that only black animals are allowed on the couches."

"Whaddya mean that's not the rule?
And whaddya mean I can't stay up on the couch?!"

On Oct. 13, 2004, Mr. Vinnie Williams came into the world. Just having acquired Bruno a month earlier, I had no idea what to do with two puppies. It was madness and fun times all at once.

I love my V-Man. He took the back burner when Bruno injured his hip. He was very patient and understood why Bruno needed the attention. He was also quick to step up to the plate when I needed a demo dog for my obedience class due to Bruno’s early retirement.
He was there for me when I needed him the most.

I must say, the most important lesson Vinnie has taught me is to not be so serious.
Life is about laughter and not about worries. The minute I look at him, he does something that erupts a giggle from me.

I can always count on Vinnie to remind me that it takes more energy to be angry than it does to be silly. Here’s to many more silly years together my smooshy Pug-bug!

Peek-a-boo!
