Jealous of My Dog

Kilo, my pittie, is a scavenger. I always have to keep a keen out when walking him as he'll eat ANYTHING on the ground.

This morning, for example, he ate one of those Entenmann's powdered cinnamon donuts that someone had dropped. I was pretty angry when he wouldn't drop it.

I LOVE those Entenmann's powdered cinnamon donuts.

Rock On,

Hmmm...

Mark Zuckerberg's dog miffs writer....

Good morning and a fine Hump Day to all of you. 

I don't know if you folks are feeling it like I am, but there is an element of spring in the air.  Yes, I know technically in a little under two weeks we are going to be in Spring, but its closing in and I, for one, am quite happy about kissing this crappy winter bye-bye.

With the better weather coming, many people are going to make it a point to be outside more, shortening their time on social sites and actually getting some exercise.

Speaking of social sites, Mark Zuckerberg (The Facebook Guy) is taking some flack as of late regarding his dog and Facebook sign-up policies.  Primarily, a Chinese activist is frustrated in regard to the sign-up policy and essentially points out that Zuckerberg's dog has representation, but he is unable to present himself as he likes.

You can read the article by clicking HERE.

Also in the news, we've got a very big Comedy Fundraiser coming up next week.  The last one was a sell-out and a blast, so don't miss out on this one...

Door admission and raffle proceeds go ENTIRELY to needy animals.  Don't miss out!!!  Make your reservation now!

They've got an App for that.....

Good afternoon (morning), all.  Hope you've enjoyed your weekend thus far and have made the most of it.  I've tried to, and with the exception of some mixed drinks that slightly disagreed with me, I'd say I've done pretty well for myself.

Technology.  Gotta love it.  Remember when computers used to make that "Skuuushhh...beep...beeeep" sound when going online?  Remember Atari?  Remember when heating up pizza used to take like 15 minutes?  If you do, you're old like me.  If you don't, you're spoiled by technology.

Speaking of being spoiled, how cool is that there are apps for everything these days?  Every time you blink there seems to be some new, cutting edge, uber-amazing feature that you can't live without.

Progression is great and speaking of which, for all you fellow dog-lovers out there, HERE'S AN ARTICLE that highlights some great apps that can really give some great info to you guys.  Check it out, its pretty cool.

Know what else is really cool?  Our upcoming comedy benefit!  Its coming up very soon and you need to make a note on your calendar, your rolodex, your electronic scheduler, or simply post a note on your fridge.

Note that admission cost goes ENTIRELY to aiding needy animals and their owners.

No better way to have a fun time, than to also know you're supporting a great cause.

Don't miss it!

Charlie Sheen has a dog.....

That's right, Charlie Sheen does have a dog, his own hot dog.  I know...what a blatant attempt to use today's headlines to lure you to our humble site.  You're right, but we got you, didn't we? lol.

Anyhow, it is true.  Charlie does have his own hot dog, which is dripping with "Tiger's blood."  You can read about it right HERE.

Moving on...we've got lots cooking over here with Stewie to the Rescue.  Our last comedy fundraiser was a packed house and we want to thank you for that.  We also would like you to take a brief look at some of the particular help efforts we've been part of.  CLICK HERE to view.

As much as we'd like to say that we can rest on our laurels, the battle is hardly over and we still need your support.  The admission costs of your attendance at these shows goes entirely to help needy animals, as we are not for profit.  Please continue coming.

Our next show is....

Please come out, laugh, and make a difference in a needy animal's life.

TTYS,

Blind Leading the Blind....

Morning, everyone.  A very good Monday to you.  Hope you all enjoyed your weekends.

Came across a really great story depicted on THIS youtube clip.  Essentially, a blind man's seeing eye dog began leading him astray and he found out that the poor dog was having vision problems and needed immediate care.  Check out the video and see what happens...don't worry...its a happy ending.

For those of you who don't know....we often run fantastic comedy benefits for needy animals.  Our last benefit at Gotham comedy club was a great success....a sell out, actually.  We raised some great funds, gave away some awesome raffles, but we still need your help.

Our next show is coming up and we need you to come!  Tell a friend(s)!!!

TTYS,

Stewie

A Word of Thanks...

Good morning to you on a drippy Friday.  Hope you're all doing well and have great plans on tap for the weekend.  Hopefully the weather eases up and allows us some outside time.

For those of you who don't know, we just had a fantastic comedy fundraiser at Gotham this past Wednesday.  We generally offer up a comedy event every month and totally appreciate the growing support everyone is giving us.

These events allows us to raise money for needy animals and to help change their lives for the better.  With that being said, we are very proud to announce that we had a Sell-out show this past week and want to thank those who attended (along with the great comedians who dedicated their time) for coming down.

Our mission is far from over, but with continued support like this, we will keep making a difference over and over again.

BTW.....

An Important and Incredibly Blatant Invitation.....

We at, Stewie to the Rescue, believe in being direct.  Time is a valuable commodity and we want to save ours and yours, also.  What do I mean by this rambling?  Well...glad you asked.


Tonight there is going to be an amazing, hysterically funny, uber-entertaining comedy benefit taking place at the very fine and wonderful, Gotham Comedy Club.  The door admission for this event will be going to benefit a very worthwhile cause....animals in need.  Animals who need homes...animals who need surgeries...and also owners who need help keeping their animals healthy. 


The bottom line?  Come down tonight @ 8 p.m., laugh, drink, and support an awesome cause.  You'll be very happy you did.


Here's the info....

TTYS,

An Offer You Should't Deny.....

Hello friends and neighbors.  Hope you're all doing well and enjoying the arctic chill in the air.  Nothing like a few semi-warm days and then the reemergence of subzero temperatures to give you a nice shock to the system, huh?

Well, hypothetically, Spring is around the corner, so I guess that's good, right?

You know what else is good (Cue blatant event tie-in!)?  Enjoying some fantastic comedy which will go to benefit needy animals!!!  Duh!

Tommorrow, Wednesday the 23rd is the time to do just that.  If you haven't secured your tickets, now is the time, folks.  Come down to Gotham Comedy Club at 8 p.m. tomorrow and join in on some big laughs and help so animals who desperately need your help.  Lives are at stake, so don't miss this!!!

There's no better way to spend Hump day than with Stewie.

TTYS,

Stewie
