WORDLESS WEDNESDAY WITH DANTE: REPUTATION WELL-URNED

GROUNDHOG'S DAY WITH DANTE REDUX

Shades (or is it shadows) of Groundhog's Days past.

Dante has blindfolded the groundhog (aka Enemy of the State) and is attempting to cover his shadow with snow.

In a second attempt to stifle the groundhog, Dante is getting ready to haul him away (still blindfolded).

Confident that this scheme is going to work, Dante turns and wishes efurryone a "Happy Groundhog's Day."

Groundhogs are also called Woodchucks, but I'll bet you've never had anyone wish you a Happy Woodchuck's Day, have you?

And here's the little fella all locked up safe and sound -- at least until tomorrow!

And because Dante thought he might be somewhat cheesed off, he gave him some (cheese, that is).

"At leest I gots lots a CHEESE!!!" exults the groundhog in delight.

Don't worry little groundhog, you'll be PAWdoned tomorrow.

Have you ever seen a happier woodchuck, which begs the question:

How many chuckles can a woodchuck chuckle?

WORDLESS WEDNESDAY WITH DANTE: FOR THE BIRDS

DANTE TAKES A POWDER!

Dante always loved a good snowbank.  To him it was the world's largest litterbox.

And this one was powdery soft.

It sure beats toilet paper, anytime!

DANTE IN NETHERLAND!

This is Dante just returned from a snow trek in the back yard in the winter of 2010.

 "I doan like dis wite kitty litter" he was heard to say. 

"My nedder regions start ta freeze an' den I hasta thaw dem out.

"Good fing I'm fulla hot air!"
