  • “What’s in a Name” Meme from Ike

    Posted on Saturday August 29th, 2009 at 08:09 in other stupid shit

    So my friend Ike posted about how he got his name and tagged me to do it too. My name story isn’t as interesting as Ike’s (he was almost named Donnie!), but here goes. Mama and Dad found me at the SPCA in Conshohocken and I didn’t e...

  • It’s Hot as Hell

    Posted on Monday August 10th, 2009 at 15:47 in other stupid shit

    Okay, so I think I got a bit spoiled with the mild summer weather around here, cause today it’s like almost 100 degrees and I’m panting my ass off. One thing I like to do when it’s really, really hot is remind myself of cold stuff. ...

  • Punk Rock Flea Market!

    Posted on Sunday July 12th, 2009 at 19:42 in other stupid shit

    So Mama and Dad went to the Punk Rock Flea Market in Philadelphia today and left me at home! I am a punk rock dog, and so, like duh, I totally should have gone with them. It was cool though, cuz my most favorite Aunt Sarah hung out with us at home. T...

  • Hype It Up!

    Posted on Friday May 8th, 2009 at 11:09 in contests, other stupid shit

    So remember last week when I wrote my post about having some rapper genes? And that I’m almost certainly related in some way to Chuck D. from Public Enemy? Then you’ll recall I asked who wanted to be my hype man (or woman), like my own pe...

  • Punk Musician in Need!

    Posted on Tuesday May 5th, 2009 at 21:13 in other stupid shit

  • Murphy as …

    Posted on Tuesday April 28th, 2009 at 10:08 in other stupid shit

    So since I’ve been identifying what kind of strange genes my sisters might have, many of you asked what kind of extra genes I got floating around. Well, before I answer that question, let me identify my sis Trudy as part Ewok, as evidenced bel...

    Posted on Friday April 24th, 2009 at 09:35 in family, other stupid shit

  • Murphy’s Public Service Announcement - TICKS!

    Posted on Monday March 16th, 2009 at 11:09 in other stupid shit

    I read on Mango’s blog that the ticks are back already. I believe it, and I bet they’re out with their usual vengeance. Each year around this time, I like to make a Public Service Announcement about keeping ticks off us dogs. First, becau...

  • Very Weird Online Quizzes

    Posted on Friday January 30th, 2009 at 09:48 in other stupid shit

  • Fart Club

    Posted on Sunday January 11th, 2009 at 09:22 in playtime, other stupid shit

    Posted on Thursday January 8th, 2009 at 09:00 in other stupid shit

    Woo Hoo! Happy Birthday to the Mr. Elvis Presley! If it weren’t for all those pills and bacon sandwiches, he would be 74 years old today. Mama loves the King, and so we will spend today honoring his memory and celebrating his music. And of cour...

  • Mama’s Disturbing Present

    Posted on Monday December 29th, 2008 at 12:34 in holidays, other stupid shit

    When Mama and Dad were opening their presents, I was a bit disturbed by one in particular. No, it wasn’t Mama’s new AC/DC CD or Dad’s American Hardcore DVD. And no, it wasn’t the large box of chocolates (although I sniffed tha...

  • Phillies WIN the World Series!

    Posted on Thursday October 30th, 2008 at 09:09 in other stupid shit

    Holy crap, they did it. They won the World Series, they broke the curse of William Penn, and they did it IN PHILLY! Well, it’s about fucking time. But I worry what this will mean for us Philly fans. I mean, we’re used to being disappoint...

  • GO PHILS!! Break our Curse!

    Posted on Friday October 17th, 2008 at 08:14 in other stupid shit

    I swear I almost shit myself when the Philadelphia Phillies actually beat L.A. for a ticket into the World Series. I was astonished, like “Holy shit, they did it.” Last time they made it to a World Series was 1993, last time they won was ...

  • Snort, Snicker, Snort

    Posted on Friday September 26th, 2008 at 09:16 in other stupid shit

    I figured since I’m in this Bachelor contest thing, maybe I should share some of the more interesting aspects of my sparkling personality.  For example, what kind of stuff makes me snort and laugh? Chicks always want a guy with a good sense of...

    I’m not much of a book guy, I find reading kinda boring, but Gunner tagged me to do this book meme and so I’m gonna do it. Mama’s a huge book geek and has a shitload of books laying all over the house. So here’s what I gotta d...

  • Punk Dog Wine

    Posted on Monday March 31st, 2008 at 21:04 in other stupid shit

    I got all excited when Mama first told me about Punk Dog Wine. I was like, “Wine?? For punk dogs? Awesome, let’s get loaded!” But my excitement was short-lived, cause these wines aren’t made for punk dogs, they’re just n...

  • Yellow Snow Art

    Posted on Monday February 25th, 2008 at 08:40 in other stupid shit

    I really don’t like snow. It’s cold on my feet and I don’t like pooping in it cause I’m a “low squat dumper” and I hate it touching my ass. But Dad’s cool enough to shovel out some nice grassy pooping areas f...
