His Eminence, the Marquess Buster the Ingenious of Puddleston St Droop, prepares to try out for the position of Shortstop with the Boston Red Sox



Hey, blogmates--


It's Sephie, the perennial observer of male silliness!






Ever since receiving his award for Zen-like Beard-Consciousness, Buster's ego has expanded to the size of the Crab Nebula. He struts about and expects to be greeted as some kind of celebrity! And worse, he thinks there are no limits to his abilities...




Tonight, he got it into his 14-cubic centimeter brain that he could accompany the long-cursed Boston Red Sox to their third world championship by virtue of his prowess as a Shortstop.

One minor problem: HE CAN'T SEE THE BALL! It seems he has as much hair in front of his eyes as he does beneath his chin.

"Not to worry," he says! Just borrow a scunci from the HuMom and wrap those locks right up, exposing the eyes of an eagle!






Don't you think this looks like the paragon of masculinity?


Okay--here we go! Check out the form!






Yeah--that was just lucky, right? Well, he says just watch--he'll do it again!





Okay, I've gotta admit, he might be on to something here. So I asked Bailey, my four-footed Mom, what she thought. Is this something we girls ought to be impressed with?








Well, I guess I got my answer! I 'spose the Red Sox will have to struggle on their own for another year!

Patiently,

Sephie

Nice catches there Buster! I am your total opposite, couldn't care less for balls. Cassidy on the other hand is shaping up to be quite the young ball-a-holic!

Sephie Girl!

Sounds like the beard contest unleashed a media monster inside of THE BUSTER!! Keep an eye on him so his head does not exploede!

Your prizes for your contest win & runner up places are winging their way to you right now. Don't let Busster tell you that everything is for him. There are goodies in there for you and Bailey too!

Goober love & smooches,
Stanley
