I managed to catch this shot of Buf the Dog catching a few Z’s in the midday sun today.  When she heard my phone make the clicky picture-taking noise, she opened one eye, then closed it, and resumed her nap. Life is rough.

Kudos to Shannyn Moore who found this picture of one of the protesters at Sarah Palin’s rally in Madison, Wisconsin last week. As she noted, Brian would approve.  

This time of year when it’s light in the morning, I love to take my first sip of coffee looking out the window at the weather and the view, and just enjoying it for a moment before the business of the day begins. I was doing just that the other morning, and suddenly I noticed… [...]

Happy Easter, Mudflatters!  Thought you’d all enjoy Brian the Moose bedecked in all his Easter finery. One man’s Peep is another moose’s Easter bonnet. May your day be full of lovely springtime traditions, whatever they may be.

A Thursday Moose.

Mudflatter Attagirl and her Spouse were back in Madison this past weekend to join the crowd for the largest labor rally in our country’s history. And they brought along with them, our very own Mudflats mascot, Brian the Moose! Brian always seems to have a habit of showing up where the action is and making [...]

That’s right. It’s the Mudflats mascot Brian the Moose coming to you from the capital of Wisconsin! Believe me, it was just as much a surprise to me as it is to you when I got an email from Mudflatter Attagirl with a picture of Brian in Madison! Attagirl and her husband traveled to the [...]

I suppose I could just make this one a caption contest, but I’ll give you a little back story. I was sitting at the computer, minding my business as I usually do, when a dark shape caught my eye out the sliding glass door. No sooner had I looked over my shoulder than it became [...]

Thanks to Mudflatter WP, Brian had a fabulous trip to Peru! Here is a picture of him at the Incan archeological site of Raqchi, where the temple of Wiracicha is found.

Beautiful eyelashes!

I love being the bearer of good news! Mudflatters will remember that two summers ago, we had a very blessed event here at Mudflats Central. Our blog mascot, Brian found himself a lady love, and two bouncing baby mooselets were born right at the end of my garden in early May. Needless to say, the [...]

What are a couple guys to do when the rut is over, the ladies aren’t interested any more, and the long dark days of winter are setting in?  Nothing like grabbing a buddy and scarfing down some fermented crab apples at the local progressive radio station.  It’s the moose equivalent of a two (or three) [...]

OK, you’ve been asking me for years (literally!) now, and I can finally tell you yes!  Brian the Moose, our Mudflats mascot has a fan page on Facebook. Brian himself does not have opposable thumbs, or fingers for that matter, so I set it up for him.  I’ll be adding pictures and status updates as [...]

Lately, a lot of Alaskans have been in an uproar over Joe Miller fudging his finances in order to obtain indigent hunting and fishing permits for himself and his wife in 1995. Of course, your Legal Eagle is also upset that Joe the moose-poaching divorce lawyer either flat-out lied about his income to get a [...]

An interesting revelation tonight from Sean Cockerham at the Anchorage Daily News: After he first came to Alaska, purchased a home in South Anchorage and started work as an attorney for a prominent local firm, Senate candidate Joe Miller and his wife obtained resident low-income hunting and fishing licenses that require a family annual income [...]
