Bruno, LA's Watchdog: Let's 'Fix' the Politicians

Being a hell of a guy, Ron installed cable in my dog house.  But given the fact Time Warner is our provider, sometimes we have glitches.

This past weekend all I could get was "Mad Men," "Californication" and reruns of the Los Angeles City Council. I had to read about the Dodgers in The Dog Trainer.

Bruno, being of a certain age in dog years, what you people call Boomers, and having been "fixed"long ago, looks at the antics of hotshot ad exec Don Draper on "Mad Men" and hedonistic writer Hank Moody on "Californication" with a certain degree of envy.

From what I see, most of the city leaders are no different than this mutt. They not only envy Draper and Moody, they do their best to ape them.

Don and Hank have their way with just about any woman they want. The people who run LA, who thank God don't wear hats like Don, never met a taxpayer they didn't want to screw.

"Mad Men" and "Californication" are just TV shows and I can't see the producers gelding Don's or Hank's behavior to please the more moralistic among us. How amusing would it be if they were as faithful to their mistresses and Bruno is to his masters?

The same cannot be said of our city leaders.

Bruno, being the LA Watchdog, keeps a close eye on these matters and thinks it would be most amusing to see what would happen if our city leaders were "fixed," too.

Hopefully, they would be led around on leashed and sit and heel and walk the walk whenever the taxpayers commanded.

I'm sure the ratings on Channel 35 would go off the charts if that happened. Who wouldn't be delighted to see the mayor and council members obeying the people instead of screwing them?

Woof! Woof!

Good dog, Bruno!

Glad to say "woof" back to you. Somehow today
I have high hopes for our city and those of us who call it home. Maybe it is the rain. Here in
the foothills of West Hills, my rain gauge measures 1.85 inches and it is still raining hard. That in inself is a change for the better.
I will not need any more water on my clay soil until the next rain. So there - LADWP.

This blog looks good. template ?
