Now why the hell would someone use that title for a topic? Have you looked at the postings on this site lately? Half of the postings are by dogs. These are very intelligent animals. With a brain about one tenth as powerful as ours and no opposing thumbs, they are still able to turn out some really great projects. And not only great projects, but they’re giving some great advice too. Hell, that means they type also. You do know where this is going don’t you? Are some of you so butt ugly you can’t show your face? Don’t you think you have worn the dog thing out though. I counted the dogs on this site. There are exactly 85 of you dogs out there. Sorry Raymond made 86 a couple of days ago. Then two more came along making it 88. If I were to pick a dog for me it would be this one below :
Don’t get me wrong, if that’s what floats your boat go for it. There’s just too many Joneses keeping up with the Joneses though. Now some of you get it and chose other animals to portray you at this site. There are gerbils, squirrels, fish, rats, elephants, parrots, and about five cats. But, I feel that most of these are just a poor substitute for that great animal the dog. Now if you’re going to use a cat, how about one like the one below. Now is that butt ugly or what ?
To slightly change the subject, some of you show a real imagination. One of you lazyfiremaninTN has clamps on his head and NuWaveDave has his head way up “it”. Olaf Gradin and ScottyB are just too dapper for words. Now, wooder likes to show his prowess with the ladies (you lucky “dog”). And of course we have to vote Termite the “sexiest” LumberJock alive. And we can’t forget the ladies. You guys must admit the LumberJock “ettes” as a group are the best looking of any hobby or vocation. One was a wooden mermaid and did so well at this site, and like Pinoccio, got turned into a real girl (and pretty too). Girls … here’s looking at you.
And you … YES YOU … hiding behind those LumberJock emblems, shame on you. Show yourselves, it will free your minds. We promise not to laugh out loud at you, well not too much anyway. But, please don’t use a dogs face, that’s been taken. And who is the bravest one at this site? Me of course, have you looked at my picture? Oh, if any of you take any of this seriously, then stay behind those dog faces.
P.S. This was supposed to be posted for April Fools Day, but I’m in So. Cal. checking out Allison’s favorite wood store. I will be traveling home on the 1st.
You made my day. I strongly suspect that you got your April fools post in early because you know it probably won’t be the last. We have some real creative folks on board.
Keep ‘em coming.

as for being butt ugly I gotta admit—-that is not my picture…I got some young hot couple from Napa Valley to pose for my LJ photo…trust me…it was a good decision…
Great pre-April Fools Day post Odie! Is that your wife reflected in the mirrored shades? In any case, love the photos. Never stop laughing! That’s what my grandfather always said, and he just passed, at 107!

Well, Well, Well my friend would you like a drink of to get that foot down your throat or perhaps a little of this would be in order. LOL!!! But whatever the case may be, I love the humor! I think we all can use a good laugh once in awhile!!! Sooo I am going to go jump in my car and take a little ride and smile, and think to myself “I can’t believe you did all that counting! nor can I believe you can count that high!!!! Ya know what they always say? It takes one to know one! (and the mermaid comment didn’t hurt either)
And you know what I always say,
