Join Me At Waking Ambrose

It's my honor to be a guest on the Waking Ambrose blog today.

Channeling the deeply cynical Ambrose Bierce most weekdays and broadcasting a story each Saturday (the man's voice is worth the price of admission), Doug brings us all a bit closer to our inner curmudgeon.

There's no room for false sentiment, soft edges or too-pretty talk in Doug's world ... and his skill is that he makes you laugh as he shows you how ridiculous it all -- ego, pretense, artifice -- is.

And yet, it's Christmas at Waking Ambrose! Please come over to Doug's blog as I join him, Willie and Walela for some Christmas lore ...


Today's fragrance: When Willie and Walela want to impress, they make sure they have a bit of the Canadian company fruits-passion's HOTdog Eau de toilette behind their ears. Specially designed for a dog’s sensitive sense of smell, the light eau de toilette contains half the alcohol found in regular eau de toilettes and leaves them pleasantly perfumed for days. With its fresh notes of fruit, fig leaves and cedar, it makes Doug and W/W each other’s best friends EVAH. *Yes, this product does exist. Yes, I have some. Yes, Bucky has worn HOTdog. Bucky, however, prefers to go au naturel as he feels it gives him more of a butch image*
