Today, Giant George, the 245 pound Great Dane originally first reported as a possible leader in the race for the new title of World’ Tallest Dog was officially awarded the title today by the Guinness Book of World Records.

To top it off, Giant George also appeared on today’s episode of Oprah. Talk about a big day in news!

Giant George, new World's Tallest Dog

George takes over the title from Gibson, a Harlequin Great Dane who passed away after a determined fight with cancer this past August who was also photographed exclusively by Incredible Features.

Looking more like a miniature horse than a dog, George, a 4-year-old Blue Great Dane, weighs in at a staggering 245 pounds and is 42.625 inches tall at the shoulder.  According to his owner, Dave Nassar, George consumes 110 pounds of food every month, and sleeps alone in his own Queen Size Bed.  Nassar and his wife, Christine, raised George from when he was 7 weeks old, but never expected him to grow so big.  The couple eventually had to move their aptly named dog out of their king sized bed when he grew too large for the three of them to share the same sheets.

I’ve been here and have to say, this treesort (yes that’s right – complete with corny humor) has over a dozen treehouses, most complete with full hotel amenitrees like heat and indoor plumbing also has super long zip-wires and horseback riding. Musketrees (visitors) can choose between treehouses such as the Cavaltree, built like a lookout tower, a Treeloon that resembles an old west Saloon, a Treezebo which is – you got it, a gazebo in the trees, Forestree, Balcontree, Pleasantree, Mastree, Elementree, Serendipitree… you get the idea!

Located in Takilma, Oregon close to the Oregon/California border, it’s got to be one of the niftiest places I’ve ever stayed. We stopped on a road trip down the coast from Seattle back to Los Angeles. Even for just a night or two, it’s great to be a kid again.

So technically this occurred yesterday but the inner nerd in me couldn’t resist a picture of yoda so lovingly rendered in butter. As reported in The Star, sculptor Olenka Kleban created her interpretation of a sitting Yoda made of butter the Canadian National Exhibition when confronted with the this year’s outer space theme. To top it off, Olenka and her fellow sculpture Tim Manalo worked within a walk-in cooler with a glass while spectators watched.

Little did I know last nite going to meet some friends at the Farmers Market next to the Grove in Los Angeles that I was in for such a treat! The annual Rochambo or Rock, paper, scissors for us not in the know contest was on!!!

I’ve never seen people so excited (and frankly never been so excited!) about this game but alas I was eliminated in the first round. My fav contestant by far – the guy wearing the “i’m throwing rocks” sign. For those who doubted him, he proclaimed he would never throw anything but a rock and by this manifesto he stood… and unfortunately lost.

I’m sorry for the baby who was forced by his baby daddy to play. Good job on the rocks though kid.

In the end, the finalists were Andrea vs. Andrea. The proud (and winning) Andrea can be seen below flaunting her trophy.

For those of you who doubt the seriousness of ‘the game’ and those who love it, check out the USA Rock Paper Scissors League and the World RPS Society. I Kid. You. Not.

Four little words so rife with meaning… and the possible plethora of responses is astounding, bewildering, confusing, disastrous (I’m stuck at E in the alphabet, I was going for a different adjective for each letter of the alphabet – dagnabit)

This simple little website gave me so much pleasure, it deserves the honored place of being the first post in this blog. It’s a site chronicling the responses to those aforementioned four little words. I hope it gives you hours of enjoyment. It has inspired me to think of something equally useless and inane.. however since my thinking usually doesn’t lead to anything useless or inane, I might be overly productive for my own good.

How can you go wrong with a tagline like “Where getting f****** is a good thing”?

Now, if you would so kind as to help me complete my alphabetical adjective listing… who’s got E covered?
