Sebastien, mais oui!

Cooper, good good. I needed to move to black on (almost)white.

Quite nice, and easier to read.

It's involuntary. I can't use the C-word without using the F-word before and after.

2009-07-21T18:34:35.331-04:00

Well, if it's all the same to you, I don't do memes, but I'm glad you did yours. I loved reading it. and I laughed in lots of places including this one, which may or may not have been your intention: "I can't imagine going back to work for some shitty place like fucking Comcast fucking Customer Service." Or maybe I just like hearing people say "fuck" - I don't know. Whatever.

2009-07-20T01:42:22.357-04:00

Jannie, thanks. He's still got enough energy to fight me when I try to feed him his antibiotics, so that's a good sign. (And welcome).

I feel for you on your ageing poochie, I know all too well what that's like.

LOVE your template, I'm inspired to change mine up a bit now, thanks!

2009-07-17T00:11:38.123-04:00

SJ, done. Sorry I didn't do it before. I'm a bit behind on everything. That's cool. And the Facebook fan club makes me want to get a Facebook account.

Jill, I knew it! And glad you like the new template. I just needed a change. And I can't help myself--I get the shakes after he falls asleep because I'm so scared of him waking up. Mostly I can just go in there and shove the pacifier back in his mouth, but sometimes him waking up means he screams if I don't take him up to our bed. And then while we're asleep he'll kick us and pull our hair (okay, her hair), and sometimes take short strolls on the bed because he wants me to have an early heart attack.

And you're right about the Hebrew, of course. Maybe I'm just too disillusioned by the politics. I need some more time to relax after the visit. Too many drivers honked at me there.

Mongoliangirl, I'm sorry. It's a horrible thing. People talk about dog years, but really, you're talking about a dying teenager, you know?

Blues, you actually commented on the template in the previous post. You're not crazy. And just for the record, my thumbs are perfect. In fact, I'm a thumb model. In most movies, when you see a close up of the main character's thumbs-up gesture, that's my hand. Easy money, but I have to travel to Hollywood a lot.

Ricardo, cool. Thanks. But about the international sex symbol, I'm not sure what happened. Maybe I was just an internet fad. Maybe I was the "Chocolate Rain" of hunkiness.

Sebastien, but what happens when the child realizes that--unlike the dog--he can't lick his butt? Every man remembers the day he finds that one out.

And hopefully he'll speak better French than me, eventually. He is French, by the way.

2009-07-16T20:21:33.161-04:00

But you should probably teach your kid French, since that is, like, sort of the greatest language ever! (come on, did you forget how arrogant French people are? we're the best at everything! :)

2009-07-16T20:20:48.488-04:00

I love how the dog and child have such a symbiotic relationship...

Hope you are able to get some rest. Cool that you are teaching your child hebrew, I think it is great, not only a great way to connect with their culture, but it gives a person invaluable tools when they have been exposed to multiple languages at such a young age. So I think it's a good thing even if you aren't sure of it :)

2009-07-16T17:14:32.171-04:00

I think the new template looks great!! Keep it.

Were you not on your way to becoming a blog pin up boy when you were entered as the sexy daddy blogger? I thought you were fast becoming an international sex symbol.

The Hebrew, hey, it's a cultural thing and it makes him bilingual which will then get him better jobs and more money and stuff like that. It all works out.

2009-07-15T18:07:59.199-04:00

what the hell, i thought I commented on this post already.

I like the new look over here. Lookin nice, lookin snazzy.

Regarding your effed up thumbs, welcome to Brachydactyly type D. There aren't very many of us.

2009-07-15T17:21:37.985-04:00

We've decided to put our old girl down at the first of August. I keep promising myself I'm not going to fall apart over it. But I will.

Well I'm off the hook for the tag, I see! Thanks ...

2009-07-14T11:30:16.723-04:00

Well I'm off the hook for the tag, I see! Thanks for the flower though! How did you know Jesus-yellow was my favorite color?!?!?!?

Pretty new blog design!!!

That was a heartbreaking story about Buddy. :-( It also reminds me of how incredibly important *A*N*Y* baby sleep is. It's like "Let a sleeping dog lie" times four hundred million.

In fact remember that cute little nephew of mine that's too young for college? Whenever anyone asks my sister in law, Erin, if she minds if they do something that could by some impossible stretch of imagination wake up the baby, I interrupt with, "You COULD. But then Erin might have to kill you."

Also I just want to give, what do you call it? Moral support? on the Hebrew thing. Any language, really. If you don't teach him it's not even available to him. But if you teach him, he can have it as his disposal if and when he wants it. It's like table manners that way.

If you are adding widgets why not add the Golden Ganesh widget ;)

2009-07-13T22:38:05.849-04:00

Dusty, it's usually very subtle with both of them. It's only when people who haven't seen them for a while come to visit and talk about how white he is that I realize The Terror of Brooklyn is getting old.

Faiqa, wait--that's his real thumb? I thought it was a bad angle and there was something behind him. I actually got this guy by doing a Google Image search for the word handsome. Yep. Only when I actually put the picture up here I realized it looked like ginger. And thanks and welcome. Glad you de-lurked.

SJ, cool. Thanks. Soon I'll probably add some buttons and widgets and whatever until it doesn't make any sense again. And I'm not bald. I'm just hairily-challenged.

Xbox, better... So you don't like it... It's okay if you don't. But is there anything specific?

CaraBee, I would have walked off the plane. I didn't pay this money to sit in a freak show! Or better--I would have demanded they took him off. Either he cuts his finger off or gets the hell off the plane!

And be careful, that dude might write about you next.

Ellie, right? Let's say you meet someone and then after a few months of dating you're ready to reveal your terrible secret: What's under the glove you've been wearing this whole time. Instead, he probably goes to bars and waves his french fry at women, saying, "You know what they say about guys with deformed thumbs..." And they probably buy it because it's a sign of good luck. It's a strange world we live in...

2009-07-13T13:43:36.583-04:00

My best friend sat on an airplane next to that extra thumb guy once. True story. Evidently an extra finger is lucky in India. Me? I think its kinda freaky.

And as much as I wanted to hate that Bangable Babes blog, it's actually kindof funny. Bad feminist.

Old dog and young human quite a potent combination to drive a middle aged balding man like you got nuts. ;)

2009-07-13T10:44:23.344-04:00

Something of a lurker here... but when I found out that you are, in fact, Hrithik Roshan, I *had* to put my two cents in. I LOVE YOU, HRITHIK!! Even if your thumb makes my skin crawl. Also, your English is way better than I expected ;)

I like the new layout -- and I've enjoyed your blog for sometime. I just wonder how you find the time to put together such entertaining content between making all those movies and your deformed thumb advocacy.
