Second of all, I would like to take this opportunity to write my latest blog entry for Famous Basset Hound Friday! Dad and I had a long discussion about this one, and he wanted me to make sure and write this entry tastefully. He thinks it has a good chance of being a little too racy for our normal viewers.
Pshaw!
Our famous hound this week is one of the luckiest hounds of all time. He was owned by none other than Marilyn Monroe, who is second only in attractiveness to my own personal favorite actress, Kirsten Dunst! His name was Hugo.
Lucky hound
Marilyn Monroe and Arthur Miller were the two humans lucky enough to have Hugo in their lives. I can't find much info about Hugo, but I am sure he had no small part in Marilyn's success (we hounds are known for our acting agent abilities). As we all know Marilyn Monroe is famous for that one picture where she walked over a grate and had her dress blown up around her ears.
You know, this one.
Well I think she may have had a little inspiration for this scene thanks to Hugo...
This kind of evidence is irrefutable
Howlo there!
ReplyDeleteREALLY enjoying reading Jowls of Fury blog!! Have a Hugo story to share. My husband and I were walking PN and we met a woman who stopped to pet him. This happens A LOT with PN. In general people cannot seem to pass Basset hounds without interacting and then telling you the story of their Basset Hound!!! Any way the woman said her Dad just loved Basset Hounds. He and his wife were out walking and he saw a woman with her hound and of course stopped and was petting it. He asked her the standard B questions
Whats your dogs name?
How old is he?
Did you get him around here?
And then launched into the familiar phrase You know I had a Basset when I was a kid - and this dog was so funny he etc etc etc. The woman told us her Dad stood there petting the dog and telling his basset tail for quite a while. When they finally went their separate ways the wife started laughing. He was so Basseted out that he never realized he was talking to MARILYN MONROE!!!!!!! Apparently the father was never allowed to forget that he loved Basset Hounds even more than Marilyn Monroe!!!!
Chow for now,
K & PN
