Leo is my Hero!

[Moonliner]

No, not that one.

This one... (http://www.wtop.com/?nid=456&sid=1504971)


MELBOURNE, Australia - Leo the pooch is a hero. Leo risked his life to save a litter of newborn kittens from a house fire.
Firefighters had to rescue Leo when the dog refused to leave the 4-week-old kittens he was guarding.

The dog had to be revived with oxygen and heart massage after firefighters rescued him.

The kittens also survived. See the video on the left of the brave dog.

The kittens, Leo, the kitten's mother and their family have been reunited.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.

[flippyshark]

awww! Good doggie!

The bear and stoat ought to adopt the rescuees! :)

[BDBopper]

Awww. Such a good dog! What a touching and feel good story.

[Alex]

What exactly did the dog do to save the kittens' lives?

[Moonliner]

What exactly did the dog do to save the kittens' lives?

Irrelevant. It's the juxtaposition of the two Leo's that made this fun. I could just as easily have titled this thread:

Leo is in heat
Leo does not have the sense to leave a burning building
Leo on life support
Leo gets massage after laying with cats
Leo reunited with family
etc...

But it was early and for no explicable reason I was in a fairly good mood so I went with the "happy" title.

[scaeagles]

The title of the thread immediately made me suspicious and probably caused many leftists convulsions.

The only thing I can really dispute is getting the massage AFTER laying with cats....the massage always comes FIRST.

[Alex]

Irrelevant.

To your post, perhaps. But not to the two that followed it.

[Moonliner]

To your post, perhaps. But not to the two that followed it.

Also irrelevant, I was just using your post as a lame excuse to post the alternate titles.

[Alex]

That's fine. However, since your offering to the Halls of Humor offers no avenue for discussion beyond a wry chuckle, I still, in an effort to keep your thread alive for others to have further opportunities at a wry chuckle leave my question on the table for any who care to answer.

[Moonliner]

No. I forbid it.

This thread has served it's purpose. It's done. Over. Finished.

I get the final word here.

[Alex]

As you wish.

[Ghoulish Delight]

I'm pretty sure he wasn't going back to rescue them, he was just waiting until they were medium rare.

[Moonliner]

As you wish.

Thank You.

[Alex]

Vaginas, when viewed on TMZ, smell like wet monkeys.

[Betty]

Better then wet dogs.

[Alex]

Have you ever smelled a wet monkey?

[Moonliner]

Have you ever smelled a wet monkey?

No.

Damn, this could get ugly and Kevy is not even here yet.

[Betty]

Is that from your new smell-o-vision monitor setup? Maybe you have the scent-i-lator inverted?

[scaeagles]

I sprayed a monkey with a hose once but never smelled him after he was wet.

[Alex]

I guess the other question to ask would be have you ever smelled a vagina? For some on this board a wet monkey might be more likely.

[Moonliner]

Leo is my hero

Smelling vagina's in just three hours.

And you all still think there is not a vast left wing conspiracy against Leo?

[Kevy Baby]

As you wish.Alex gets Visible Public Princess Bride Mojo for this post.

And a vagina smells NOTHING like a wet monkee. At least none of the wet monkees I've ever smelled. Also, monkee vagina and human vagina smell nothing alike either. Don't ask how I know this. I was young and needed the money.

[alphabassettgrrl]

Awesome thread. I can't wait to see where Kevy goes with it. :)

Wait a second.

Ewwwww!

Yes, I foresee a great disturbance in the force as if millions of Lot'ers suddenly clicked on the "Add to Quotes" button.

I KNOW!!!! Totally Rawwwwrrr! :evil:

He's Vishous from The Black Dagger Brotherhood... or at least some fan's rendition of him. But just exactly how I pictured him. So effin hot he can bite me anyday.

And and and - it would seem he might be bi ( I don't want to spoil anything.) Ya know, in case I can entice others into reading this erotic vampire fiction along with me. (well - I finished the 6th book last night but would love to have someone to gush over it with.)

Doesn't Vishous have face tattoos?

1. Yes. But then - you get what you get with other people's avatars...

Errrr, ummm, I saw some pre-production art.

Errrr, ummm, I saw some pre-production art.

well... if that's indeed true, and I'm not so sure about that and you just won't admit to reading them, pre-production art for what? book covers? movie or TV something or other?

OK, I confess. I read Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Dagger_Brotherhood). There I said it.

For that little quip you forever link me with a right winger? All I can say is, you better watch each and every word you type from now on.

[Alex]

So, have we figured out yet how a dog sitting next to kittens while the house burns down around them saves their lives?

I once had a horse* that refused to leave it stall while the barn burned down until it was physically dragged out. I take it that this was an effort at self preservation?



*That's not true, I read it in Black Beauty when I was a kid. But to the extent that this tale was in a book I physically owned, I had a horse.

[Moonliner]

K and A say the strangest things.

[Kevy Baby]

...or horses just get board faster.Or bored

[Alex]

If "getting board" is a new euphemism similar in meaning to "popping wood" then based on certain online videos I'm going to have to say the answer is no. They seem to require more coaxing than humans.

[Kevy Baby]

All I can say is, you better watch each and every word you type from now on.I've never paid attention to what I typed before; why should I start now?

[Moonliner]

What are you two talking about?

[Moonliner]

I've never paid .... before; why should I start now?

Hummm, close but not quite.

[Alex]

Sadly it fails to make K and A look bad if you wait so long that you have to caption your edit.

And if "getting bored" is a new euphemism similar in meaning to "taking the love train into that vagina or equine anus over there" then...

[Moonliner]

I'm sure I have no idea what you mean? Caption?

Which of course makes me wonder just what you're watching online where that kind of coaxing would come into play. Do tell.

What does "popping wood" mean to you? For me I am talking about comparisons between steeplechase racing and hurdles.

That's not a photograph?! WOW!

Yeah, bring on the Monkey.

[Moonliner]

What's with you people.

I told you, I already ended this thread.

It's more done than Bush and McCain.

Stop Posting.

Thanks, and have a nice day.

[Alex]

As you wish.

[Moonliner]

Obviously I started this whole "stop posting" thing as a lark but now I'm beging to wonder. Does Alex have a pathological need to get in the last word?

[Alex]

Also, monkee vagina and human vagina smell nothing alike either.

Missed this earlier. Which Monkee had a vagina?

I'm guessing Peter Tork.

[Betty]

That's not a photograph?! WOW!

No- sorry -that's not what I meant. I think it's just a photo they got somewhere and decided that was what the character looked like to them in their mind. And boy (OH BOY!) do I agree.

[Alex]

I could answer that but you might be discouraged from gathering evidence in support of your thesis.

[Kevy Baby]

Yeah - I have more interest in the tent pitching aspect then the steeplechase aspect... but not of horsies. Better make sure I make that clear.

[Kevy Baby]

[Moonliner]

Hey, I've been thinking. Old George Bush Jr. Has not gotten the support and recognition that he deserves.

Please everyone join me an post why you think the big guy in the not quite round office needs a great big hug.

Show your support for Bush! Post now!

Note: Any post following this one will be counted as an endorsement of George Bush Jr and his policies, regardless of it's content.

[tracilicious]

(Ignoring the previous post...ok, actually all the previous posts.)

The doggy clearly loved the kitties so much that he was pulling a lassie. He ran back into the building, expecting firemen to follow him, which they did, and then insisted that they rescue the kittens.

Happy, Alex?

[Kevy Baby]

I'm not a big supporter of bush: I do prefer a clean look (waxing or laser hair removal)

[Alex]

On the last word: Keep in mind that as things currently stand on the employment front I am being paid to sit in a chair (I was paid pretty well to actually do things so let's just say the chair-sitting compensation is astronomical). This leaves me with a certain surplus of time on my hands.

Re traci: I could buy that, but the story makes no reference to the dog running back into the house. Simply that it refused to leave.

Finally, I'm ok with being labeled a Bush supporter. It will give me further street cred when arguing with Leo.

True, Alex. Perhaps he just barked vehemently, attracting firefighters attention. Maybe he was making pockets of oxygen with his fur so that the kittens could survive a little longer even if he didn't. Maybe he was just stupid?

[Alex]

Perhaps he did. Though those facts aren't in the story to justify the headline or the first sentence in the story. Yes, it makes for a better newspaper story than "Dog and four kittens almost die in fire" though it is curious that we don't know the name of the true heroes in this story, credited with actual fauna-saving feats: the firefighter that retrieved them or the EMT that affixed an oxygen mask to the oooooh so cute and cuddly face of Leo.

He (Leo, not the EMT) may also have made them wear damp bandanas to help filter our the smoke. Though obviously he wasn't paying attention to flight attendants or he would have known to first secure his own air supply before helping nearby children.

I know it is just a silly vapid local news human interest story-writing and hyperbolic headline writing, and I like to comment on that when I see it. Besides, the alternative was to talk about our Leo and I was already doing that in another thread and if I hadn't shown up to be a humorless (or am I) hardass, then this thread wouldn't be the rousing success it is. Instead just lying there with nary a reply while Moonliner was forced to wonder if he detected in the far distance a twitter of wry chuckling.

Wow. Just wow. An inspired bit of prose to be sure. A perfect way to close out this thread.

[Betty]

Aren't you always supposed to end it by saying "so there!" ?

[Ghoulish Delight]

True, Alex. Perhaps he just barked vehemently, attracting firefighters attention. Maybe he was making pockets of oxygen with his fur so that the kittens could survive a little longer even if he didn't. Maybe he was just stupid?
Roughly translated, that barking meant, "Damnit, I said slow cooked at 350°. Turn the effing broiler off, get me some kosher salt, bbq sauce, and a basting brush. STAT!!"
