Fletcher Colbert


Fletcher, originally uploaded by Tucker&Swiss.

So Swiss and I have been debating what Fletcher's middle name would be. Because all self-respecting dogs have middle names, right?

Anyway, I made a command decision last night (and Swiss doesn't know yet). It is going to be Colbert (silent T). Because a) he is hilarious and awesome, b) it sounds cool, and c) he got so many cool points for going to Iraq and being an advocate for the military and their families. I figure the least I can do is partially name our dog after him. He would be honored, I'm sure.

Oh, and if you didn't get a chance to watch his shows from Al Faw Palace, you need to spend some quality time this weekend catching up. It was awesome and hilarious and, I think, a pretty big deal. So a Tip of the Hat to you Mr. Colbert. Thanks for all you do. And for being so damned funny. And for making me cry when you said the bit about "Honey, I'm comin' home." You rock.

And also, how could anyone NOT love this man? Seriously, that should go above the fireplace...

Happy Friday Everyone!

This just sparked a vigorous debate with hubs, and we've decided that the dog's middle name is Wiggleton.

That's right, Fry Wiggleton S-L. Yes, his last name is hyphenated. And yes, we always argue about whose name comes first.

That is awesome. I am pretty sure that nothing on my blog has ever "sparked a vigorous debate" so thanks for upping the cool quotient of my blog.

And I am glad that you have settled on a name. Wiggleton is a great name. I wish I had thought of it first but all of my initial suggestions were lame, like Schitzalot or SchnitzelLicker, so I took the easy way out with Colbert (siltent T). But I dig that your dog now has 4 names. That is impressive!!! I must consider hyphenating the dog's name...
