LOLMAFIA!

I am addicted to those web sites with pictures of pets and idiosyncratic captions. If ever I am in a bad mood at work, I'll just pop open the following websites and instantaneously burst out laughing:


  • http://www.lolcats.com
  • http://laughoutlouddogs.com/

Obviously, I need lots of practice learning how to speak "LOL" language, but here a few of my attempts at being witty. That's WITTY, not whitey. I'm accused of trying to be that also.

:P

Bruno King . . .

King Bruno is ready for his breakfast.

Please make sure it is at the proper level of smell.
I'd like my Tripe to be extra smelly today!

Seriously, folks.
This is one of those times when you should be glad
that computer monitors do not come equipped with smell-o-vision!


Come on! I'm hungry!
You have to do what I say when I am wearing my crown!


Is someone going to tell him this "crown" came
from Burger King?
And that's it made out of paper?

Up Close and Personal

Never realized my camera had a setting for close ups...

Who better to try these settings on
than a really lazy American Bulldog?


Make that one dirty American Bulldog...



I swear his paw is supposed to be white in color...


Can you see my brain?

I have some little teefies!


I apply my eyeliner very carefully each morning
before leaving the house. . .

Is that cookies I smell?






And before I get crap on why there are no Pug close ups...

That's why.
Pugs try to eat cameras.
They are vicious!!


The theme for this weeks seems to be hiking.

With the weather cooling off (even the appearance of rain!),
the Mafia has decided to take full advantage of it.




"Move them hips, Ma!
Even I can move mine faster and mine are broken!"

The Pugs seem to be in Turbo Boost mode...


Bruno decides to go hunting for the perfect log
for Dad to throw into our destination...



Destination!


Um...looks like the river is a little low!

"That's, ok!" says Gino. "We can still play!"

"I like walking on this funny ground!
Who would have thought that we'd be walking
where the river once was!"

"Yeah! This is some funny soil!" says Gino


The Mafia likes to leave a call signal behind...


Alright...
which one of you bad asses smuggled in the beer?


"Dammit, Gino! I told you Ma would find out!" exclaims Vinnie.
"Run for it before she grounds us!"

Pugs on the loose!



"Wait! What's that over there?"
asks Vinnie as he applies his Pug Brakes...

"What are these?" asks Vinnie

Why, they're magical River Sunglasses!

"Ya, right!" says Vinnie.
"Magical my Pug butt! Only a dummy would believe that!"

"HEY!" shouts Gino
"If Ma says they're magical, then they are magical!
Now shut up and show Ma some respect!"


"Hey, Ma! You like my Mud Boots?"

And so ends the hike...
another trail added to our tally!


Um, Bruno..
I really was kidding when I said those glasses were magical!

Hiking Hounds. . .

Today is a big day for The Family.

Ma and Dad have been married for 4 years.

They eloped and would do it again in a heartbeat.

To celebrate, they took us hiking.

The end destination was well worth the sore feet and paws.


Let’s get this hike started!


This way, Ma!


Just follow the butts, Ma!


The men will lead this hike!


There’s only one cool way to hike—with your tongue hangin’ out!


Anyone bring a ruler? I think Vinnie wins!


How long is this hike again?


Seriously…

this meathead keeps slowing us down with his one million pit stops!


I can’t help it! I’m big boned!


What’s next on the agenda?


Let me guess what Bruno wants to do next…


You guessed it! Another break!


Let me just catch my breath for a second…


For dog’s sake…can we get going?


Fine. Let me see what all the fuss is about! I’ll take a break!


Phew! That wasn’t actually too bad! I think I like these breaks!


Ha ha! Bruno is a turtle! Whachoo mean my tongue looks obscene?


Hehehe..Ma said your tongue looks obscene!


Don’t tell anyone…but even the Fun Police take a vacation!


We are not having fun! Well...maybe just a little bit!


One question…what time is lunch?


These Anniversary trips are pretty fun!



Daddy? Any chance we can find a lake or river to swim in?


I’m pretty hot, too! I need a swim to cool off my tootsies!


Phew! Now I am all cooled off!


Um…Bruno? What are you doing?!


I have to get a big stick!


Bruno, you call that a big stick?


Now this is what I call a stick!


That was one fun adventure!


See you around!

It's The Little Guys You Got To Watch!

He may look pretty cute...


But it's best to remember that his back up is not to far away...

Perfect weather, perfect dogs!


All the school kids so sick of books, they like the punk and the metal band.
When the buzzer rings (oh whey oh) ...they're walking like an Egyptian!



Seriously Vinnie, this trying to fly stuff...it's getting a bit creepy!


The only thing I can guarantee you that he loves
more than his Daddy are sticks!


Yes, they do have matching vets.
Yes, all the cool kids are wearing them. :)

When people ask my why I have three dogs,
I tell them "For the smiles."

Find Waldo!

I think in Gino's past life, he was that one dude who always managed
to sneak into someone's picture and ruin the moment.


Look closely. . .



I know that first one was rather hard. Look closely at this one now. . .



Peek-a-boo!

Of course, I didn't discover the sneaky little bastard until after I uploaded the pics!
I was going to use these pics to create a birthday gift for Ryan.
I was going to make him a coffee mug printed with this picture of Bruno and him.

Hmmm..
I wonder how long it's going to take me to PhotoShop one black pug out of these pics?

"No picture is complete without my mug!" says Gino.

The Fun Police Does Not Exclude Family!

The Mafiosos decided to call up their cousin, Bison the Rhodesian Ridgeback, and see if all was well. Little did Bison know that the Fun Police doesn't bend the rules for family!


Right away, the pugs checked the area for any hazards.
"Gino, you check that area & I'll check over here," commanded Fun Police Vinnie.



"Alright, the area is clear. But remember, you are not to have any fun!" warns Gino.



Bruno tries to give Bison some advice.
"Don't listen to the stupid Pugs," Bruno said. "They think they can tell us what to do! Ignore them!"



But deciding to not listen to the Fun Police is not a very wise choice!
They are alert to everything!


"Gino! I see Bison is having fun! Put a stop to it! NOW!" exclaims Vinnie.


"I'm on it!" assures Gino.


"Excuse me! I'm going to have to ask you to stop having fun!" warns Gino.



Uh oh...I think Bison might be heeding Bruno's advice!
"Hey! Don't make me give you a ticket!" yells Gino.


Alert! Alert! Ridgeback on the loose!
"He's making a run for it! Vinnie, I need back up!" exclaims Gino.



"Vinnie! BACK UP! He's getting away!!" Gino frantically yells.



Sensing the urgency, Vinnie brings out the big guns.
"I'll be there in a jiffy! I'm using my Fun Police powers to fly!"



"Aha! Landed in front of him! Stop in the name of the Fun Police!" shouts Vinnie.



The pugs safely contain the perpetrator.
Bison, however is not pleased that he was singled out!

Bison says "If I can't have any fun, than neither can Bruno!"


"I'll take care of this!" exclaims Gino.
"You stop that! No having fun with sticks!"


Boys and girls, the moral of today's story can be summarized rather easily:
Never underestimate the powers of the Fun Police!

And may your first child be a masculine child!


After much encouragement from fans of the Canine Mafia,

The Mafiosos now have their very own blog.
Their picture adventures have sparked a fan base
and this a blog was the only social solution!


Who would have thought that two Pugs and an American Bulldog
would have more friends than me!? HA!


I can pretty much guarantee you a new adventure every Mondays.
My husband makes it a requisite that I get off my ass on Mondays (damn him!)
and join him in discovering new swimming and hiking locations
in the greater Sacramento Area.

And of course, wherever we go, so do the boys!


Thanks for visiting our blog!
