IP's Manly Men Den of Dogs...

Remember, darling, I'm still watching. I hope you won't get too carried away with this naked Happy Tails Ale chugging secret sniff-test stuff. :) Still love ya forever.....xoxoxo

*blush* *stammer* Um, no my sweet, I won't get carried away with all this debauchery! *gulp* xoxox Your Charlie

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Charlie, you're more fun than a barrel o' monkeys!!!! xoxo D

I'm in. What's a bong?

Dude, you bring the cigs, ok? A bong is this big long hose that you pour the entire contents of Happy Tails Ale into, and then you gotta chug it all down in one big gulp. Can you do that? I'll show you how at our first meeting. Who's gonna write our bylaws? ETB?

HEEHEEHEE! Thanks! =)

Two paws up to that club!

I HATE clothes. Clothes are for sissies. I'm in for sure. Mom tried to make me wear a T-shirt once. That was SO embarrassing.

Are there any age restrictions for drinking Happy Tails? I'm three in dog years, so I think I'm old enough aren't I?

I love Sniff Tests! Could we have a cat poop eating initiation?

Did you see the sponge bob sweater grandpa bought me?

I'M IN!

You know I'm in. I'll get working on by-laws but throw in any you think we need.

And Buddy--bring that Sponge Bob sweater to the meeting. We'll need something to start the grill with for the BCB's and Brats!

Naked, BCB and Brats?! I am soooo IN. I'll see if Jake wants to join too.

If I can sneak into my other Dad's room, I can get a copy of the swimsuit issue of Dogs Gone Wild.

Silly boys. It will never be as well organized as the BFFs. You'll probably wait until 5 minutes before meeting time to announce it. We send out handmade paper invites that we have personalized with pink and purple glitter pawprints. Boys!Yuck!

what!EVERRR Pebbles! We are so too organized! Does YOUR group have bylaws like we do?? I don't think so!!! And our group gets to have cigars and beer! That's way better than making silly cards with sprinkly pawprints! Girls are gross!

I am SO in! Can I join? I just turned 1, is that old enough? I think that initiation has to include rolling around in something stinky - my personal favorite is duck poop... you can smell me for miles after a roll in that stuff.

I am all for this. I agree with some of the ideas. Cat poop to eat. I can bring plenty of that! I think we need duck poop to roll in as well. Thanks to the Sponge Bob sweater, we get BCB and Brats. I think we do need to find a pond on these hot evenings to have a naked swim.

They were going to bylaws but they couldn't find the store..get it buy laws.. ha!! Go bedazzle something Pebbles and leave us alone!

Of course I'm with you guys. Naked, with beer and BCBs and brats? I think we need to have poker night too. When it's football season, we'll have to have a big screen to watch our favorite NFL teams. No NFL team clothing, but we can have NFL team collars. Bong? I can't do bongs anymore. The last three times I did it, I puked right afterward. I'd rather keep my beer down. It doesn't taste very good the second time around.

Happily, I am the owner of the remaining bottle of Happy Tails ale. Can I come too? I promise not to boss Deucey around. I'll just be one of the boys.

Umm....Charlie????

Well, from what I've seen so far, these MMDDs (Mad Mad Ditzy Dogs) will need to have by-laws to keep this pack under control. If Maddie wants to join as the honorary female, I think it's a good idea.

Oh and hey, Sashi, back off. You're scaring the poop out of all of us. I'm going to have to call Ghosthunters International to find out how you got back in here.

xoxo LCC

*gulp* SORRY my bad! I meant all girls are gross EXCEPT my wonderful beautiful Sasha!!!

Well. OK. And that would be your HAUNTINGLY beautiful Sasha, and don't you forget it. :) When I said I love you forever, I meant it.
hee haw

"Hauntingly beautiful" LOL!!!

I'm totally up for this!! Dad has some scotch he keeps on hand for just such an occasion, I'll bring that!

Hey guys, do you think we should invite cats too? There are some pretty cool cats on this site, after all! I'll bet Sir Denny Crane would fit in, and Boomer too!

Thank you for thinking of me, Charlie. I did not want to be rude and invite myself. Sir Denny Crane

Of course...we should shorten the name to Manly Men Den. That sounds like a swank place for us guys to hang out, dontcha think?

Madeleine, I have to assert my manliness and say, no, you can't come. As much as I'd like to have you near me, we males will be crude, rude and inappropriate. It will be too much even for your experienced self.

Well, guys, it sounds like things are on a roll. Is this a subsidiary of the SDFs? If so, some of those by-laws can be put in place. As to a secret under-the-tail sniff, you need to remember that some of us are kind of short and can't reach too high without jumping, which might cause a few problems. I think my biggest sis left a wine skin here for those of us who choose not to guzzle our brew. Puking ain't my thing, bro. Cat poop . . . nahhhh, too specific. What about any kind of poop? Oh, there also can't be any umbrella drinks or dainty appetizers. Not to offend any DCLU members, but NO girls regardless of their ability to be one of the guys. They have a tendency to still be pretty bossy. Cats, as long as they're boys, are OK. You never know what kind of goodies they'll show up with!

I guess I just don't understand why it can't be a Gentlemen's Club. Any of you guys who are joining up for drunkenness and debauchery will not be good candidates for boyfriends. ~~sniff~~ Mims

Ah geez MiMi, we're not drunks or debauchers, and are in our own ways, gentle (emphasis on gentle) men. Think about college boys turned loose on weekends . . . Besides, when a corgi boy starts organizing things, he returns to his Welsh roots and thinks ManlyPalooza!!!! Right my corgi boy pals??? and all you corgis by proxy??

ha ha, you got in trouble with your girlfriend. Just proves that even death doesn't stop us women from being in charge. I bet Officer Chase is going to bust your group. It sounds like too many illegal things will be going on there. by the way, I do have blue sparkle stones for my bedazzler if you need help with your decorations.

Um Mimi. Around here a gentleman's club is a strip joint. I don't think we want to see any of them stripping naked.

Mimi--you may want to look up the meaning of "Gentlemen's Club"--hee,hee--no offense, Miss MiMi

That's RIGHT! MANLYPALOOOOZA

What? WHAT? Perhaps I didn't hear you correctly, Deuce. I thought you said I could not join the manly club. That was a pretty funny joke. I can rude, crude and inappropriate with the best of 'em. Kind of like Annie Oakley in the old west only with no guns.

Oh, shoot. Well, you KNOW what I meant!! I meant like a REAL gentlemen's club, NOT a strip joint. I tried to tell you, they don't call me Marilyn Monroe for nothing.

Honestly gents, I think certain tomboy girls should be allowed. I'm the one in our household who won't wear clothes, marks everything, and rolls in all sorts of smelly stuff. I've even killed a possum. Namby pamby Goosey can't say any of that (well, except for the marking). As far as Madeleine goes, you boys can't get any worse than what she lives with - Denny Crane. 'Nough said?

I have an idea. Why don't we get points for doing manly things? For instance, a few weeks ago I embarrassed mom by looking up her friend's skirt. That's gotta be worth something in a manly men club...right?

If you don't hike to pee--in our club you cannot be...

End of story...why don't you gals start a "Non-girlie club"?

Hey ETB, I actually have been known to hike to pee! So now can I get in?

Man, I took a nap and you guys are taking over the world here! ETB, that is the BEST motto I've heard in my life!!!

Obvioulsy, you boys have no uniqueness and are coyping off of us. Our BFF Club is sooo more organized. Once you boys get this thing going...we'll see who's club lasts. Glitter and sparkles RULE!! GO BFFs!

If the club meetings involve licking yourself and butt scratching, I'm in. I could really use a break from mom's relentless smooches and snuggles.

UGHHHHHHHHHHHH that's so GROSSS!!!!! I'm puking now.

YEAH!!! GO BFFs!!!! BFFs FOREVER!! (don't tell me I'm being redundant) We are the awesomest diva dogs in the world!!!! xoxoxo Mims

Because we want to belong to YOUR club, silly. Let me get this straight...you have invited a CAT, who is in no way technically a DOG, but you won't let Sheila and me into your club? Sounds like Augusta all over again.

Well, you know that's how this whole thing got started. Because they are so dead set on going commando and no clothes and butt nekid all the time. Maybe actually they should be a Chippendales Club. Then we could enjoy the parties, too. :()

My mom puts us in tshirts and takes pictures...she thinks it's funny. You don't even want to be around here for Halloween...

Well guys I am in. Us guys need some time for our selves, you know male bonding and all that. No cloths at all. Dad and I are of the same mind to lay around naked watching t.v. while he is on medical leave. It is so relaxing. If you have the CHEESEBURGERS I AM THERE. UMMM CHEESEBURGERS. Us guys need to stick together.I still love my Bev. but us guys need some guy time.

Um, Batman, why does your Dad own the Swimsuit Issue of Dogs Gone Wild? Is it for the articles?

Yep, he reads a lot!

Please don't say the H word. I get PTSD.

Oh, I understand. Us girls need our girl time too. You go off and be crazy with the boys, and then you can be a handsome gentleman with me! Have a good time!

Mama Here--- Um ETB is working on the Man Laws but now he's outside with all the Grandson's (minus the baby) camping out and roasting hot dogs. We'll have the list together tomorrow. Still taking all suggestions except(per ETB) none from the stinky BFF's (his words, gals)

Darn it, the BFF's won't let me in their club cause I'm too big!!! Now the Manly Men club doesn't allow any girl dogs - too bad cause I play a mean game of Texas Hold'em...

We never said you can't be in our club! We are all small but if you're girlie, you're in!

Okay==Not cool of the BFF's not to take you cause your "too big" but why can't you guy's gals get your own club together. Mama and her friends aren't girlie and they hang out together and got out to eat and take trips and go take tours of whiskey distilleries (hee, hee) You gals could start the "Chic Club"--Cool, Hip, Intelligent Canines--- Let us to our beer drinking, cigar smoking, licking, sniffing and football watching--Geez Louise, can't get a minutes peace around here. Poor Charlie's being hassled from beyond, all the BFF's got their bows in a bunch...

I'm having my Papaw start on the club house tomorrow!!!--ETB

I'll apologize to the BFF's for calling you out. Very cool to take Casey. Since ya'll are so short maybe she can get the cool glitter from the top shelves--

Oh, I thought it was for little dogs only - my bad! Mom wants to paint my toes but Dad won't let her...I think I'd look smashing with pink polish on my toes!!!

Well ETB guess we will have to start are own club. Problem is I like some girlie things and some guy stuff too! Maddie is it ok to wear polish and play poker???

Mama said we can join as long as we can play fantasy football and there are no Patriot fans in the club. I'm not sure about Teddy, though, he is "in touch" with his feminine" side.

Wow....mama shuts down the 'puter and goes to work, comes home and the guys are tryin' to take over the planet. Maddie and Deuce are somewhat quarreling over him putting his paw down...of course, we haven't heard from him since Maddie called him on it. The BFF's are havin' a fit over some copy infringement thingy. All I gotta say is....if my sweetie, Riggs wants to join his buddies and have a good time, he should....bless his little heart....love u, Riggman, my handsome basset.

I sure hope so. Mom and I like to girlie things together, but dad and Colton are my bestest friends so I really am a tomdog. I like to go fishing and swimming with dad and Colton, but I also LOVE to wear my pink bling collar and would like to have my toenails painted. Hey Casey, can you teach me how to play poker?

Man Law--No Patriot Fans!

Yes, definitely no Patriot fans!

I'll second that no Patriots fans!

Also, we need a law that says no BFFs can decorate the clubhouse that ETB's papaw is making us. I've got a great picture for the wall of a bunch of dogs playing poker, scratching, drinking appropriate libations and smoking cigars. You know, the pool hall theme - no pink, sparkles or bows!

Gosh, this is just PAWESOME. We have a motto thanks to ETB and his Papaw is building a clubhouse! I'm still a little freaked out about being contacted by my Sashi. It's spooky! But I'm gonna man up and take it!

Agreed--no Patriots fans and no decorating by the BFFs. If anyone dares to bedazzle our clubhouse, well, let's just say the response from the Manly Men Den will be appropriately harsh. Starter, if you'll bring the picture of the dogs playing poker, drinking and scratching, the rest of us can gather up additional supplies for the clubhouse.

Here's what we need: 1) a keg of beer, 2) cigars/cigarettes for those who smoke, 3) poker chips and cards, 4) brats, 5) BCBs, 6) a big sign that says "NO GIRLS ALLOWED", 7)a poker table, 8) stools or chairs for those of us who are vertically challenged and can't reach the top of the poker table, 9) the bylaws.

What am I missing? Maybe some aspirin for the morning after...and if anyone's got any old furniture like couches and chairs and stuff, that'd be great. We'll need something to sleep on when we get too inebriated to drive home.

You heard me. No girls allowed, including you, dear. I'm putting my paw down on this one.

Way to man up, Deuce!!

p.s. I subnitted by-laws for approval just this morning. BARK

how about a pooltable I love playing with balls.

Well, you're a guy. Don't we all love playing with balls?

You guys need to remember that some of us can only go through the motions on the ball thing. We can play with them, ie tennis, football, baseball, etc., but we can't lick or scratch them!

Sad but true, my corgi brother! *sigh* ah yes those were the days......

I hike to pee sometimes (Riggs taught me), what about me?

Thanksfor your support Peachie, that's why I love you so much...arooooo(druel)

*I reserve the right however to act like a rowdy teenage pup and talk lots of smack at our meetings w/o feeling guilty about how I sound or how that might make anyone feel*

I am so in! Guy club! Oh boy! My favorite! I miss my poker nights with Bowie!
