Twas the week before Christmas…

      No Comments on Twas the week before Christmas…

With apologies to Clement Clarke Moore ‘Twas the week before Christmas, when all through the house All the creatures were stirring, including our mouse; The stockings were created by April with flair, Since it will be St. Nicholas’ first visit there;   The bedrooms were cleaned up and repainted, It took several weekends and I nearly fainted, The house now… Read more »

Hudson’s View: Bird Dog of Alcatraz

      No Comments on Hudson’s View: Bird Dog of Alcatraz

        Quite the week here at WallyWorld. We experienced a series of events which significantly changed the face of how we get along, treat each other with respect and build or tear down trust. I’m not speaking of the tragedies in Paris last week; although my puppy heart goes out to the Parisians and especially Diesel the… Read more »

Hudson’s View – The Meal in the Bowl goes round and round…

Finally…fall is upon us! The leaves are falling, the squirrels are throwing nuts at me from the trees and Woody, our woodchuck, is almost reachable as he’s moving slowly after adding a few pounds this summer. The best news is that we can put our bathing suits away for a while and not be so self-conscious. My brown fur suit… Read more »

Paper Route and Puppy Rout

      No Comments on Paper Route and Puppy Rout

  With Newspaper Carrier Day on September 4th comes both a celebration of the job for many individuals, but also horrid memories for others like myself; who felt the wrath of both customers and creatures while working my paper route. My introduction to the newspaper game came at a young age in my hometown in somewhat rural Westchester County, New… Read more »

Blog Jam!

      No Comments on Blog Jam!

Hi everybody, my name is WallyWord…I’m a blogging addict, and it’s been seven months since my last post. Impressive as it may be to give something up for seven months; this particular stay of addiction isn’t encouraging.  With a job which takes me daily to the bottom of Manhattan and is a time-eating large commute – looking at the computer… Read more »

Hudson’s View; Our Animal Farm…it’s not Orwellian, but the revolution is here

Sorry, it’s been awhile since I’ve posted.  I get started on something and my claws don’t work really well on the keyboard. Actually waiting for a voice-activated technology to help me, but afraid all my posts will just end up saying Woof, Woof. My column is called Hudson’s View, and I aside from my naturally cynical nature, the fact is… Read more »

Hudson’s View; There’s Snow Place Like Home!

      1 Comment on Hudson’s View; There’s Snow Place Like Home!

  Since Wally has been otherwise distracted and can’t seem to find the inspiration to write, I thought I’d get my paws on the keyboard and share with you a real life changing event for me in the last few days. NEMO. Not the movie about the fish; my tastes run to old Beethoven movies or the classic Homeward Bound… Read more »

Recalling Bacall…

  “If you want your pool stuff back just whistle. You know how to whistle don’t you? Just put your lips together and blow.” For those who remember this famous quote from Lauren Bacall; you’ve also realized I’ve taken a bit of poetic license with it…but you’ll see the method to my madness in a moment. If I haven’t mentioned… Read more »

Two Dog Night

      No Comments on Two Dog Night

  If Hurricane Sandy didn’t provide enough of a whirlwind to our home and property recently; we had the pleasure of dog sitting this past weekend to remind us that the Tasmanian Devils are alive and well! Dog sitting is probably the one job in life I’m really qualified to hold since during my childhood growing up in a somewhat… Read more »

Hudson’s View – The Dog Days

      2 Comments on Hudson’s View – The Dog Days

Yeah, these are the Dog Days of August alright. TS (which I think means Tiny Schnauzer) Eliot had it all wrong – August is the cruelest month, not April.  Lots going on in my life…well my master’s life, in the month of August. If you’ve read my bio (Who’s Hudson?), you’ll know that I’m the four-legged person that holds together… Read more »
