Where's AJ #21

Off Topic
  • Well, it's not where I am right now, but where I'll be tomorrow…if my human can get enough sleep through my loud, off-key singing, that is...

    The song I am singing made #1 on the Roll and Bark Top 40 charts in 1959 and was sung by Willbite Harrier. It was later covered by Wags Podengo and a whole bunch of other great dogs that I just can't think of right now

    La-dah Dee-dah, Dah-dah Dee-dum, Here I come!
    They got some crazy little bitches there
    And I'm gonna get me one…

    Maybe I better pipe down for a while. My human is pulling the pillow over her head.

    Cheers!

    (extra credit for exchanging the Canine names with the humans who recorded a similar song.)

  • YAY! You are back! So glad to know you are both with us.

    Is it "Kansas City"? by Wilbert Harrison?

    I love "Where's AJ"! :)

  • Yes, Kansas City. We'll be at the Edwardsville, KS Swift yard at around 6:30 pm today. (03 Nov)

    So, any idea who correlates to Wags Podengo? Venture a guess?

    :D

  • AJ certainly rides in style !

  • Thank you. It looks pretty good for a piece of farm equipment. It's an International, formerly known as International Harvester.

    Plans have changed… I'll be a few miles north of the yard.

  • Porter Waggener (sp ?)maybe? singing Kansas City !

  • Wags Podengo=Fats Domino. :)

    Thank you for playing….. :D

    They are adorable :) Watson always gets identified as some sort of terrier. He has been a rat terrier and a toy fox terrier…

    So, I guess I couldn't have seen you in my recent trip throught the city of flying pigs (for those unaware, there is one). Two hours of stop and go southbound, trying to get to the airport. I was in the backseat and looked at every truck on the off chance there might be an AJ sighting. Obviously, no luck, as you were a few time zones away :) Had I seen AJ, I might have jumped out of the car I was in and jumped into your truck for a couple of miles…just to say 'Hi'...that's how slow going it was. My advise, for north or southbound, take the by-pass...but what do I know? There were plenty of trucks willing to wade through the traffic.

    I love Chicago…most truckers think I'm a kook for having that opinion, but I've been known to go 75 miles out of my way just to sit in Chicago traffic. :D There's a certain energy in Chicago I can't find anywhere else in the world. And yes, that says a lot...I've been in major cities from Tokyo to Prague (Praha) to Munich to Seoul as well as amost every major city in the US. There's just something about Chicago.

    Aha!…But I didn't say largest living animals…I was speaking of the Great Grandfathers of Northern California, the Giant Sequoia commonly known as Redwoods. :D

    @AJs: It's been a very long time since I read The Wizard of Oz. Is Wichita where the story starts? I googled "Dorothy's House Wichita" and nothing came up except ways to get to Liberal. That's where the house is that is advertised all over Kansas as THE Dorothy's House. From what I understand (and I have been wrong before…it could happen again) the house in Liberal is where they did some of the filming. But I love the Witch-ita reference...:D I think Dorthy's house was just considered to be a farm house "out in the middle of nowhere".
