What 2 Gorgeous Days Revealed in NYC

Moving onto our 3rd GORGEOUS day in NYC!!!
This is certainly worth rejoicing, since tomorrow, it's supposed to drop from the 80 degrees that it is today, to the 40s. :-(
Below are snapshots from the past 2 days.

2 nights ago, I hoped to blog from Yankee Stadium but should have known that I wasn't allowed to enter the stadium with a backpack.
Nevertheless, I managed to do what I do best, which is to capture the cheeziest moment in a given situation!...GONEZILLA!!!

Yay! Matsui with a 2 run homer!!

Yesterday in Chelsea, I encountered the phenomenon that fills me with glee:

Doggies who get tired on their walks and have lovely "companions" (PETA would be proud of me for using that term!) who gladly carry them.

Finally, last night, while visiting my cuz at Columbia, an unacceptable situation presented itself to me:

Is there any way we can put an end to this?

Lordy. How long * does* this have to go on. These people need to discover the hipster thong. Seeing this just makes you want to grab it and give it a big TUG skyward!

That dog being cuddled by it's owner is what a dog's life is all about.
I am obsessed with exposing thedogisland.com for the shady misleading operation it really is--Jonah--warn who needs to be warned. I followed a link of thedogisland.com website to the Melbourne Herald and read this article:
http://www.heraldsun.news.com.au/common/story_page/0,5478,6240874%5E11869,00.html
and responded to the editor with the following message which I hope Andrea will forgive me for posting here:
Dear Ms. Amjadali,
I can only assume, having read your entirely serious article, that you believe dog island actually exists or that you are part of the conspiracy that is thedogisland.com. (Do you know mexicokitty?) I am convinced that the "island" operation is a sham. There are many clues that lead me to believe this--the numerous typos in the oddly gushing text of the site, the unheard of terminology (dogologist), the fake towns to which tax benefits are ascribed (Mamadin, CA does not exist), the fact that one of their "dogologists" is named Jane Godale, and another Richard Dawkins, the strange correlation between the "owners" of the island and "Han Fei, Peixian's biggest dog breeder and most likely China's, too." (From the Taipei Times. Han Fei owns the Dawn Fine Bred Meat Dog Center), the link to the novel Property in their sieve like FAQ, and on and on.
For some reason I'm stuck on this. If it is a spoof, it's funny---but if respected news agencies are reporting this fiction as fact--it's doggone suspicious. Please don't leave me in the dark. I have contacted the island already and received unsatisfactory results. Your web site is the only site I found that mentions the dog island--doesn't that seem suspicious.

The Dog Island "press release" claims that the Sunday Herald visited the island and wrote a beautiful article on the progress. If this is true, will you please provide me with evidence that these islands actually exist. Thank you, a concerned dog lover,
Hannah Sharpless

Regarding Dog Island

Who would YOU believe:
1) The Herald Sun, Australia's highest circulation daily newspaper
or
2) A person who spends hours writing long, urgent, daily comments on someone else's weblog?

When I am looking for the truth, I turn to respected media outlets and not home published web sites like Snopes or obsessed weblog fans.

Also, a friend of mine recently sent her dog to the island. It was sad to say goodbye but she is very happy with her decision.

THIS is how the thong meme spread! I have been missing the obvious all along! Thongs snuck their way into every woman's ass-crack through this simple method of advertising, and not through the perversion of mothers admonishing their daughters against the dangers of visible panty lines!

I have to ask noted online diary expert Cam Marlow what he thinks of my theory.

Thong thung blue.

The whole thing ... It looks like an EASTER HAM all twined up 'n' stuff.

Pass the pineapples!

I too have done research on Dog Island. The Nature Conservancy is quite upset about Dog Island stating that thier "island" resides on thier property when, in fact, it does not. Linda Reyes, who is mentioned on the www.dogisland.com site, and I had many e-mail interactions and her press release from her job for the City of New York, which was a fraud, was taken off the web site after the City of New York's attorney's threatened to press charges against her. How do I know this? I contacted the City of New York and provided them with a copy of the bogus press release.

Scary, weird, scary. In a world full of technology, miracles and world wages of war, does this now have to "creep" up in our face and remind us of what is truly evil, what we are truly fighting for, why we exist?

The advancements of jeans are not inline with with the advancements of t-backs, thongs, panties, et al if they can be this out of sync. www.stop-t-back-creep.org Donate NOW!

This does beg the question, if a thong in jeans is not seen, does it exist?
