Certainly, mention it once. Maybe talk about it briefly when it materializes. I get it dogs are cute. But is it really something to spend more than a week discussing? Is there nothing more substantial to take up headline space on MSN.com?

Of course, I am just one guy who is probably just jealous that his guinea pigs did not make it to the international news spotlight. But I am working on it.

On the bright side, talk of the Obama’s future pet has pushed some of the “Dancing with the Stars” headlines out of the spotlight. Whew!

*Disclaimer: Don’t let the sign fool you, I am an Obama-ite.

Knowing that I am a bit of a softy, my wife, my sister-in-law, and their mother managed to gang up on me and convince me that we needed two cuddly baby guinea pigs in our home. I have to admit they grow on you quickly. Anyway, we have had them two weeks and were using an old cage that was a bit on the small side. So, tonight Aisha took it upon herself to build a monster of a cage for our new babies.

For anyone interested in seeing the outcome, or just viewing some shots of their colossal cuteness, check out my recent uploads to Flickr.
