mysterious maple syrup (smeared on head)

chained_bear He doesn't seem to mind. He didn't seem to mind having a sticky, maple-syrup-scented head, either.

Odd. Mar 9, 2009

reesetee I'm wondering now how your twenty-pound dog feels about Canada. Especially since it dripped pancake syrup on his head. Mar 9, 2009

rolig Right. And who do you think benefits most from global warming? They're already planning tourist resorts on Hudson's Bay. Mar 5, 2009

chained_bear True. And maple syrup does indeed have a strong connection to Canada.

*ponders if Canada actually dripped syrup on dog's head when she wasn't looking*

One of my favorite rants about Canada (there is actually more than one!) was when Denis Leary said "You can hear them, way up in northern New York, you can hear them at night. They're up there sharpening their skates so they can come down and take our cheese!"

rolig It's another Canadian plot. Like Mary Pickford and Lorne Greene and SNL, not to mention gay marriage. Be warned. Mar 5, 2009

chained_bear Or a nice pancake breakfast dropped on his head. From outside the house, somehow. Mar 5, 2009

reesetee Maybe he sneaked out for a nice pancake breakfast? Mar 5, 2009

chained_bear Well, his head-fur is nice and clean and fresh now. Still mysterious. Mar 5, 2009

bilby We've had a big problem with roving syrup gangs in my neighbourhood. Mar 5, 2009

chained_bear We can't figure out how he got something on his head that's now dried but felt like it must have been sticky at one point. S.O. actually smelled said head today (!—swears it couldn't be avoided) and claimed it was maple syrup-scented.

I verified the claim.

We still can't figure out what the hell he got smeared on his head—or how. Mar 5, 2009
