No, no…. I can see it too….

All we need is one more person and then we can form a religion and get tax exempt status.

I did have to count paws to make sure it was only teh One Basset in place.

Brilliant. And I would love to see Bassets featured in the play.

Wait, you weren’t going to stab him, were you?

Will there be magic underpants in this church?

You look at a photo of a reclining basset and see the painting of the death of Marat? Wow.

I was going to say I saw a duckie and a horsie but I think I’ll just forget the whole thing.

Count me in! Choir practices will be real howlers!

(Now can I do one of those declining balance trusts loaned to a church like Mitt and get out of paying taxes?)

Yes, but is your basset’s French as good as Marat’s? (Basset hounds originated in France.)

Holy shit! Wake them hounds up before Mitt tries to baptize them. Ain’t like the shitheel’s got anything ELSE to do.

No, it’s not just you… You did make me giggle, however.

Is that All One Dog? Really?

*Ahem*

I have an official Doctor of Divinity Degree issued by the Universal Life Church of Modesto, California if that’ll be of any help.

Also too, donations?

…and there is no death involved.

Why are there people in your alley?

I thought them dogs were telling the drones to kiss their ding-a-lings…

FWIW mine was a reference to my favorite Charles Schulz cartoon.

And, it turns out, his favorite also (scroll down to the last entry under quotes.)

I presumed the peeps were following the pups. But what kind of alley is it?

Poor tensed-up dog…..

Ann Romney may be lurking in the alley shadows, riding crop in hand, looking for you people….

In “The Death of Marat,” the paper held in Marat’s left hand reads, in French, “Il suffit que je sois bien malheureuse pour avoir droit a votre bienveillance” or in English, “Because I am unhappy, I have a right to your help.”

Perfect expression for bassets,too.

Oh, my. Well, maybe it’s the light, and, and…I know! the colors of the basset and the white turban on Marat and the basset-tan box beside the tub….

Not a comparison I’d have thought of myself, but no, I sorta see it…

GWPDA, I had to squint to be sure it was only one basset, too. What clinched it was there was no Wembley-esque black fur in evidence.

From that pic, though, it’s hard to believe in Fenway ever barking.
Thanks, even though the result came out better than I’d hoped, still, it was a tense week or fifty; we need our weekly bassets.

Totally perfect resemblance, except for the blood and the bathwater, of course. And the pen. And the thumbs.

And really…someone should have told Marat about Personal Responsibility. Where was Miss Rand when she was needed?

…a dog sleeping on its back with the forepaws covering its chest wants to have sometime for itself. The dog is trying to convey a DO NOT DISTURB message. This position indicates withdrawal. In this instance let the sleeping dog lie if you do not want to be startled by the dog’s growling and be at the end of the dog’s strong and sharp teeth.

From “Why do dogs sleep on their backs?”

OKOK I’m outta here … woof …

I was going to say I saw a duckie and a horsie but I think I’ll just forget the whole thing.

Good to know someone still reads and quotes the classics, UVP.

Yup. It actually made it into one of the early TV specials.

Wow. I see it. You’re the Bassett-William Wegman!

Nice artistic sensibility, TBogg — but if everyone is getting all religioso and speaking in tongues and stuff, how about the lower third of this?

Granted, St. Fenway looks a little more relaxed, but does that not signal the advanced spirituality of our new sect? No underpants for us, no sirree.

And also, Caravaggio was gay. Too bad he’s not here to enjoy the post-election nimbus!

isn’t that a sister church of the flying spaghetti monster? We need dueling photos of the other one too.

Thank you! The colors alone made me sleepy and in Italy somewhere.

Uncertainty, I recognized the Peanuts cartoon right away. (I’m a psychologist, so it always reminded me of a Rorschach joke.) And I too can see the Marat painting.

I assume Fenway and Wembley are enjoying their Mittenfreude…were they contributors to Dogs Against Romney? (Facebook page, for the uninitiated.)
