Gus is taking an inordinate interest in the Internet in the past few days, it seems to me that he is thinking of starting a blog. He keeps sitting on Maria’s lap at night and studying the internet closely while she blogs.

I warned him that I will consider a Gus blog to be competition. First off, I said, he’s just a baby, eight months old. Secondly, I pointed out that he is functionally illiterate and I will certainly not type for him.

Plus, he can’t take photos and I will not give him permission to use a single one of mine. I have no intentions of competing with Gus online, I am many things, but cute is not one of them.

Imagine his reports from inside the life of a spoiled rotten Boston Terrier. That’s gratitude for you.

I did love the photo, though I thought it captured Gus’s spirit and personality. He is the Dog Of Entitlement, he appears and disappears, goes where he wants whenever he wants.

But he’s not getting a blog. There are limits.
