Murphendectomy.

in the shadowed gulf of doom
Beware the cursed Cerberos
Dreaded hound who has no pity
Lies in wait and eats them up
Shakes the ends of the Earth
With barks from his three throats
Bristling snakes upon his necks
The blood of men enshrouds his coat

Mr. Murphy

Get to know Murph. This is him. He hates you.


Jaws has got nothing on this motherfucker..


It snowed a little bit this winter. Murphy sports the lumberjack look because he hates trees too.

Here he is on his porch. Watching.

March Madness




Me: Hey Murphy, who do you have in your Tournament Bracket?
Murphy: :sigh:
Then he stood up, stretched and laid back down.
Me: Seriously, murph. Who did you pick?
Murphy: .....

For Murphy March is the first time in quite a few months that he can sit on the front porch and do nothing.There is no madness in this. He moves from the ground where the sun hits, to a chair in the corner, to the red bench. In one of those places he sits quietly watching the street. There he silently waits for a dog or kids making too much to pass by, so he can jump up and howl for a moment and then lay back down. The people passing by laugh at his hound dog howl and continue on their way. Sometimes they stop to ask what kind of dog he is, or "that dog wearing a sweater?"

St. Patricks Day




My dog is a beagle hound mix. My fiance and I went to get a cat (we had temporary lapse of judgement) but instead we found this god damned hound. He is a bad ass and his name is Murphy. I wanted to name our first dog Robocop, but the ASPCA had already named him Murphy. Murphy is a good name, and Robocop's name was Murphy before it was Robocop... So it's a win win.
With a name like a Murphy you would assume he would be down with the St. Pats day. He is not, and you would be an ass for thinking that. you know what he is doing right now? Sleeping. You know what he is going to do later? carry around his squirrel, chase birds, bark at loud ass kids and other dogs that think it's okay to walk by Murphy's front porch. Murphy won't take that shit from some trifling ass dog or kids.
Murphy doesn't get St. Patty's day. To be honest I dont really get it either. it's got something to do with food and drinking, so I am not going ask any questions and put guinness in everything I make today. Murphy will do nothing differently, and he will be perfectly happy about that.

La Nouvelle Rrrrogue?




The French New Wave was a French film movement, more like an era and later a movement, that was heavily influenced by the Italians and the golden age of hollywood. Film buffs like it. Film jerks love it. Murphy doesn't understand it.
He sees their fancy editing, visual styles and the social commentary on the era, but he doesn't care. He has more important things to do.

Hound about town 2K10.


So I was about to make a new blog about my dog, when I saw two comments. It made me decide to just continue this one. There are a lot of things my dog doesn't understand, but also he does awesome things. This will be a place for all of that...Maybe. I dont know, but neither does my dog.
