Here’s one of those bulldogs who’s become famous by reacting to what he sees on TV. And yet a lot of other dogs completely ignore it. Ditto with cats: some get into TV and some just don’t.
I have to admit the barks scared me more than the movie.

Byron’s TV Listings, Aug. 3 REPRINT
G’day, boys ‘n’ gulls! Byron the Quokka here, thanks to a mixed-up schedule. Violet Crepuscular has already sworn to get me with her pea-shooter. But like the feller said, “What, me worry?” and “Better late than never.”
Here are a few selections from this weekend’s potpourri of nooze (are you amazed that I could spell that? I am!).
Sunday (too late for Saturday)
11:22 a.m. Ch. 64 MR. ICONIC–Pure culture rot, if you ask me
Follow Mr. Iconic down the road of Pure Cliche, just off the Meaningless Drivel Highway! This week: Learn how to say “they” and “them” when you’re talking about just one person. It drives people who care about English crazy!
3 p.m. Ch. 06 BAG THE SCORPION!–Sports
It’s the national sport of Kaboodlestan, now being played all across Europe. Today: Spatrazzini Primos vs. Yorkshire Spads, winner take the whole bag of angry scorpions! Announcer: Yi Fang Chao. Ceremonial Chant: Charlie “Mulekicker” McCroy.
6:06 p.m. Ch. 71 SELASSIE–Unnaturally smart dog (yawn!)
Selassie, great-great-grandpup of the original Lassie, has taught herself to be Lord High Mountebank of Ethiopia–and the Big Bopper (Jock Mahoney) doesn’t like it! All of these episodes were discovered in an old strongbox tucked away in a spooky corner of an old barn where the mountebanks used to play I Doubt It. This week: Selassie finds a caterpillar in her dog chow.
Well, folks, that’s a little taste of what’s in store for you today! I hope I can get home in time not to watch Mr. Iconic!
Maybe I can borrow that bike over yonder.
Byron the Quokka, signing off.

Robbie the cat is lying on top of my notes and I haven’t got the heart to move her. This vintage “Joe Collidge” piece is the only title peeking out from under the cat.
Well, we can always use a good laugh. It’s a gift from God.
And now the cat gets up and walks away!
Happy Sunday, everybody.

Baby Sloth’s First Words REPRINT
From March 2, 2023
What were the baby sloth’s first words? I won’t keep you in suspense. The baby sloth’s first words were “Aaaah!” And “Aaaah!”
All right, they’re not William Jennings Bryan and Winston Churchill. But you’ll have to admit they’re a lot cuter. And cuddlier.
Some cute animal pix for you to watch while I run to the store
Funny cats fitting into impossible containers…
There is a coarse word in one of these–but I didn’t want to not use it because the pictures are so cute.
The sufferings of Dave continued episode 11
I believe this is a new one…he has so much suffering
Unusually Cute Pets
From February 22, 2017
Hey, what are those roly-poly little white dogs with the blue tongues? I thought only skinks had blue tongues.
Actually, all the animals in this video are kind of roly-poly, and some of the cats are quite tumbly. The management takes no responsibility for that.
