she was skeered of the camera and kept trying to sneak onto my lap!

what is that flashing and wierd high-pitched sound???

ugh the light in my eyes!!

pretty smile, happy dog :) finally stopped being a drama queen long enough for a cute pic!

by far jj's best movie yet

i promised jj i'd shamelessly plug his new movie on my blog... even tho it has nothing to do with animals. dont miss it, it comes out in a few weeks. he'll be super mad if you dont show him your support.

jj's always ready to fight, and his latest role is no different. watch him display his mad skilz of pointing at the camera. and his favorite, flying.

green shirt spotted at reunion

ok, after begging all family members i found some people with photo evidence that jj was at our family reunion!! however, it is also evidence that he is a bad influence. this is why jj is not allowed to have wee ones. someday he'll be zach's FAVORITE uncle...

booooooooo.

i was going to pretend i hadnt talked up the jj visit to ohio and promised all those pictures and whatnot, and just move on to more ridiculous animal postings... but i suppose i owe at least a comment on the fact that there are ZERO pictures of jj from the weekend in ohio. is it because he wasnt really here?? could he really tear himself away from the motherland and holy rocks for 2.5 days to enter the heat and humidity and surround himself with cornfields and flatness as far as the eye can see?? i guess we'll never know for sure, as there is no photographic evidence to prove or disprove... :( i know, you're soooo disappointed. we all wanted to see pictures of jj with all the different kinds of poop. i'm sure you'll get over it after several sessions with a counselor.

sad state of affairs for climbing in ohio

probably a good thing jj's in the boot... or else he'd make me go here: John Bryan State Park (check out that choss, jj would love it). top roping only, bouldering strictly prohibited. which means jj would get arrested in ohio. again.

for your entertainment try checking off rules jj would break while climbing here:
Guidelines for use of Rock Climbing Areas
-All climbers and spectators must register at the park office before going to climbing area at John Bryan State Park. Each Climber or spectator must take a registration tag from the board upon registration. If no tags are available, you must wait until someone checks out. tags?? what the hell is this, a ski resort??
-All climbers and spectators must have their registration tag on their person in plain view while in the climbing area. Registered climbers and spectators must also have their copy of their evidence of registration on their person while in the climbing area. jj climbs half naked... i dont want to know where he's going to stash all this documentation...
-All climbers and spectators must check out when finished by returning the registration tag to the board at the park office. Other climbers may be waiting for you to check out so they may register to climb. jj wont check out for 2 reasons: hordeing the area to keep others from climbing there, and because he'll be in too big of a hurry to commence with pizza/beer consumption
-Climbing is permitted only at designated sites. Each site is limited to a maximum of 10 people at a time. on first point: designated area schmesignated schmerea. on second point: jj travels with an entourage of at least 28 people carrying 32 pads.
-Climbers must be top roped at all times. No Lead Climbing or Bouldering.
Secure to anchor bolts only. No tying to trees. WHAT? NO TYING TO TREES? what about climbing the trees? plus, top roping is for sissies. you cant expect a stud like jj to comply with that rule...
-All climbing sites must be vacated at sunset. Climbers must check out before park closes 1/2 hours after sunset. oh boy... jj never gets out of ANYWHERE before sunset... he wears no watch, has no internal clock, and doesnt CARE for such things as hours of the day. plus, he usually leaves something behind that he has to go scampering back into the forest to retrieve (with his pad still on his back just in case he gets jumped by a mountain lion...)
Practice Environmentally Conscious Climbing: well, jj does love the environment...
-Minimize trips to the top. ok, you've all seen the boot... jj's not afraid of heights. he LOVES heights.
-Do not top-out. Lower down instead. perhaps this rule could have saved jj from the boot. alas, his greatest enjoyment in life is derived from standing on the top of a boulder, pounding his chest, waving his fists in the air, and stomping around like a monkey declaring victory over nature and his general "better-than-you-ness"
-Minimize the distances you travel from the cliff to avoid vegetation. jj LOVES taking the long way over a short distance, to enjoy the natural surroundings... i refer to it as getting lost... (plus, jj doesnt avoid vegitation - how many times has he asked chuffer what poison ivy looks like???)
-Leave the area cleaner than it was when you arrived. possibly and probably the only rule jj will leave unbroken. unless you count the excrement he'll leave behind... and i'm not even talking about the dogs...

more excitement for jj

jj will be taking an exotic trip to the farmlands of ohio for 4th of july... where he will be campusing the boot of doom around this new and exciting area: Vertical Reality (MUST be cool with that kind of name...). Heres the beta on how to get there: "Vertical Reality Gilboa Stone Quarry Located 15 miles West of Findlay, Ohio off State Route 224. Upon reaching Gilboa, turn left at the 10' cow to pick up old State Route 224, then turn right onto Old State Route 224. Go 1/4 mile and you are there." Wow. jj's kind of directions.

Vertical Reality is not just a climbing gym, it's a vertical xtravaganza! it also features a "Breakaway window for Tactical Entry"... imagine the many uses for that kind of skill???

sadly there are no pictures on their website... it must be choss. jj will TOTALLY love it.

THE FINAL COUNTDOWN

to jj's further submersion... he will be coming to Ohio and will subsequently find himself knee-deep in various types of excrement (which i have previously stated is his "favorite"). dont worry, an in-depth photojournal will follow.
