Upgrade Your Dog 296
ptorrone writes "Engadget has glimpse in to the future, a future where your dog has a cell phone, webcam and electronic tag, and maybe even talks to you. Maybe. Some of this dog-tech isn't available yet, and some of it is (in Japan, of course). The overview includes some interesting iterations of pet technology, and they even made their own version of a dog webcam along with the first ever canine photographer's photo gallery." I'd rather see more of these things applied to infants.

I'm a proud parent of a newborn young girl. The first thing I did after getting her home from the natural birthing center was to install a subdermal electronic tag so she can't escape. Second, since I'm a good dad, I bought her a cell phone (an N-Gage even!) with a 700 minutes/month plan. Third, I enrolled her in ESL classes, cause she sure damn can't speak English yet. I don't understand a word she says!
Until later,!

I already get tons of e-mails telling me they can upgrade my "dog" by adding a few extra inches.

If you think about it, dogs are basically just interrupt handlers with the ability to respond to a few simple commands.

So *you're* that guy...
There's this guy who drinks at a local bar every night. One night, he came in and ordered only coffee. The bartender was curious and asked him why he wasn't buying beer.
The man replied, "I don't drink anymore... last night, I blew chunks."
"Oh that's nothing", the bartender replies. "Everyone gets a little sick after drinking too much at times."
"No, no", the man replies. "You don't understand. Chunks is my dog!"
