“And Sandsberg swings for strike three, and that is the end of the inning. And so, as the players change sides for the seventh inning, let’s take a break and cut to the ‘Hungry Dog Coveting Other People’s Garlic Fries Cam,’ sponsored by the makers of Food, reminding you: Food, it’s what’s for dinner.”

Garlic doggy breath!!!!! ????
Ick! No thanks!!
Bulletin! The Cuteoverload site is gone! When I clicked on the site in my bookmarks I got something which says the domain name may be for sale. Gaaah!
Yep, saw that yesterday.
Do you know what happens to the archives? I’m crushed. I was going there most days just to encourage them to keep it online.
Oh no. I thought at least the archives would stick around. *sadness*
What’s happened here is that the CO domain name registration has expired and no longer routes traffic to the CO server.
The Internet Archive has most of Cute Overload’s content stored in its Wayback Machine service, including older versions of the CO website as far back as 2005.
Thank you. I’m not ready to let go.
Me neither. Now I’ll just have to go print out all my favorite posts and comment threads. The “Is That All Their Is” snow leopard, the marriage proposal cat, pretty much anything posted by Theo, the “Hewwo” hedgehog….Sigh.
Good idea.
Maybe you could save them onto your hard drive or a flash drive? (I don’t know if that’s technically feasible).
I’m going to bookmark the Wayback Machine link when I get home tonight!!
I actually kinda like the ability of wayback machine to look at old posts. When CO closed down, I tried to start from the beginning to look at all I missed, but there was no way to pick up where I left off each time (I couldn’t enter a “go to page #”) and it got old real fast to back arrow through tens to hundreds of pages.
My experience exactly. While the Wayback Machine isn’t complete it will be easier to use.
That reminds me of my nephew. When he was little he would beg me for food just because he saw me eating something.
“What’s that?”
“Sushi.”
“I like sushi.”
“You’re 4. You’ve never had sushi before.”
I’m put in mind of (can’t come up with his name, the Russian stand-up comic) talking about game shows in Russia one of them being “Bowling for Food”. Love this post. Heck, I love them all.
You’re thinking of Yakov Smirnoff (“America, what a country”)
In Russia, french fries eat YOU!
Yes, that’s whose name I was trying to think of. Loved him – what’s he doing now, anybody know?
Don’t know what he’s doing these days but according to wikipedia he is also a painter and has a master’s degree in positive psychology. Who knew?
Very cool! I had no idea there was a field “positive psychology”.
“Positive psychology is the branch of psychology that uses scientific understanding and effective intervention to aid in the achievement of a satisfactory life,[1][2][3] rather than treating mental illness. The focus of positive psychology is on personal growth rather than on pathology, as is common among other frameworks within the field of psychology.”
Allein, you are a treasure trove.
just a copy/paste from wikipedia…
Maybe so, but you went there! I always forget I can do that. I’m getting better at realizing that the Internet is knowledge at your fingertips but I’m not quite there yet.
Sea food Diet … See Food .. Eat Food ..
Sounds like my beagle
Safeco Field! Go, Mariners!
Never been there on Take Your Pup to the Ballgame Day, tho.
Puppeh needs to borrow the Mission Impossible climbing rig from those fry-mooching dachshunds! 😀
😀
So the game is not the thing for doggies.
I’m afraid that’d be me at a game – not so much for food but lack of interest. Not a big sports fan.
What a marketing idea! A free pup with every order of garlic fries! Safeco Field here I come! Go Mariners!!
Many years ago I saw a cartoon in which one dog is looking at food bowls and excitedly saying to another dog, “Oh, boy! Dog food AGAIN!” which, honestly, sums up every dog I’ve ever known. But I’ve also never met a dog that didn’t think human food was far, far superior — which is why we make sure our guys only get very tiny tastes of human food at the bottom of their bowls to encourage them to eat their way down to the prize that awaits their explorations. 😀
We need to find out when Take your Dog Day is at our local team’s stadium. I have a feeling our guys would love the attention and fuss!
And the food. Or at least all the food smells.
Cute pup, although garlic isn’t really all that good for dogs. I hope no one falls for that adorable goofy smile..
