my first dog was a yellow lab, emma. very smart. very patient. also a cautious dog. add all that up, and she would neurotically avoid sewer gratings like the plague, especially in winter. she died a year or two after i went to college. my interest in music was really taking off, and so of course i wrote a song , you know, because i'm being vague, because naming it "my dog died and i'm gutted" is a bit too on the mark. a few months later, my father described a scene. he and emma were at some lake in vermont, and they were both just staring out at the water and the sky. my father was resolute that the dog appreciated the beauty of it all. i found this photo from 2004, a year or two before that, and i've always felt like the two two of them were having the same moment right then. taken jamaica state park in vermont, at which there is a plaque on a boulder commemorating my grandma - my dad's ma - for her pioneering in white-water rafting. you cannot make this shit up. |

Dog's have such a good sense of smell that, as one documentary put it, they can smell time. Meaning the dog's "owner" had a subtle fragrance specific to him and when he left for work in the morning the concentration of his smell in the house slowly dissipated, and the dog remembered at what molecular level he usually returns so gets on the couch to look out the window before he even drives up. And a dog can smell the location of meat buried under a lake. My point is that, given dog's accute sense of smell, the thing they like to smell the most is other dog's buttholes. Think about it. And yes I suspect they find this smell beautiful. Kind of like an Asstickler or Assphuck Twin track to us. Buttholes are the constituent elements of everything when you really think about it. |

i've always said -- if dogs invented language, they wouldn't say "looks good to me." they would say, "smells good to me." the fundamental roots of our language are tethered to our focus on the visual; our metaphorical language extends accordingly. i can only imagine what emma smelled throughout all this, given what i saw. |

that's sweet... it's hard to know what's in animals' heads, though i've never been a dog person. you read about people who can interpret their dog's facial expressions and such, and i'm a bit sceptical of this, but there's no reason why they shouldn't have a trace-species-whatever instinct to love the great outdoors. i mean, i always had cats growing up, and while they were mostly indoor moggies cats have their territories spanning tens of miles if given freedom to roam. pets are seeing, hearing, smelling on a different level to us - they couldn't tell a van gogh from a rothko but that doesn't mean they don't appreciate beauty |

You've always said that, even before you were born? Probably the main thing emma was concentrated on smelling was all the buttholes around her.. squirrel buttholes, bird cloaca buttholes, your dad's butthole etc. It's no coincidence that "cloaca" looks similar to "coca cola". Did you know raspberry flavoring is made from beaver buttholes? Most fast food is made out of buttholes in some way or another, which is why do'gs like to eat people food so much. |

Song reminds me of close encounters of the 3rd kind at the beginning. Maybe if aliens visit us, they won't be after our oxygen or to attack etc. They'll just be alien dog like creatures that came to earth to smell everyone's buttholes. |

i think dogs are really beautiful, especially when they try to make up the shit they done by looking at you as if they were kids, especially female ones |
