Hasta La Creative!

Someone just sent me a smart-ass hat-wearing Boxer dog with a message – turns out you can have our furry friends deliver all sorts of messages via this site, and some of the voices even speak quite well. Try listening to my ginger-haired cat-clone and see. You can type but any words you want in their mouth – wonder who will be the first to use this to break up with someone.

Of course, It’s an ad – for http://www.allaboutpets.org.uk/ which seems like a fine site but I can’t find an answer to my turtle-woes. “Dear allaboutpets, my turtle gets really angry with me when I clean his shell with a toothbrush. He won’t talk to me for weeks afterward. Does the toothbrush tickle?”

The Stanley cup is currently in Sweden – this past week it was in Piteå with the Detroit Redwings own Thomas Holmström. Us folks from the northern part of Sweden have a bit of a reputation, stereotypes include slow drawly speaking using few words (like the south in most other places, go figure) and being a little eccentric – or ‘different’. OK, so that last part might be true – after all, Thomas Holmström’s cousin Robert Sundström decided to baptize his daughter in the Stanley Cup. Robert says it was Thomas’ idea though – either way Robert is thrilled. “It feels great to baptize Alva in such a unique priceless object. I don’t have any idea if it’s happened before” he said to Piteåtidningen.

The Stanley cup has bodyguards that travel with it – Walter Neubrand and Bill Walter – and they did not protest when Alva Felcia Sundström was baptized in the cup that all hockeyplayers dream of getting their hands on. Last thursday Thomas even used the cup as a “paltgryta” as well. Told you we were different. 😉
