LumberJocks is Going to the Dogs (revisited)

Let me tell you why I’m reposting this. First, it’s almost April Fools Day … a one year anniversary for this post. Second, There is an overwhelming presence of “DOGS” … exactly 186 as of today at 7:00 am PDT, 3/28/09. Third, I do need to make official that a couple of good buddies did change their ways … thank you Steve and Berta (Steelmum). Fourth and last, it took some of you so long to download this (Steve), that it needed to go back to it’s original size for a little while. The original post is quite a hoot to read, and it will stay. Many of you LumberJocks have asked me to do this for quite awhile now.

Since the last posting there have been many of you join us. I believe we have doubled in size since then. There have been a few changes though. There are many more beautiful ladies to look at … thank you! Oh, and where did all of those eagles come from?

Below is the original (I’m holding off on my REAL Aprils Fools Day joke for the First ?)

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.
