"I said, 'Be careful- His bowtie is really a camera...'"

I know I've probably already sent this to you in my giddy narcissism, but in case I haven't, here it is.   I like making myself look cool, and this is my attempt.  Please like me.  If you were extremely dyslexic this would count as my fifteen minutes of fame.  Otherwise, I figure I still have about 14:45 left to go. 
I would like to note that every time a photographer came up to me in that shelter, it was ALWAYS when I was trying to handle a dog who wanted to bite me.  ALWAYS.  This dog was no exception.  See how he's backed against the cage with his tail tucked?  Brilliant.  If he would've bitten, there would be some all new headlines, I gua-ran-tee. 
I would also like to note that I was wearing a Clemson Rugby shirt in this picture.  I kept trying to turn so he could see it, but then again, I was probably too red-faced from the embarassement of not being able to lasso the dog that he didn't want a front view.

From the Arizona Daily Star:



"Volunteer Shannon Parker tries to coax a pet out of a carrier for a little exercise at a shelter in Baton Rouge, La.  Hundreds of pets have been warehoused at the John M. Parker Coliseum on the Louisiana State University campus by owners who have been displaced in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina."

One last thing:  I'm coming home this weekend for a wedding, so if you're in the HKY, give me a hollar.  Speaking of weddings, congratulations to the 58.35 new friends of mine who got engaged this week.  If you guys don't stop getting married, I am going to have to start some Louisiana-style looting to pay for all these dresses.  Of course, I could always wear my supersuuuuit (if Seth would tell me where it is).
