    P.S. I think you gave him the glow. Has he not the artificial glow? Or maybe he just naturally glows like that.

  • 2. George said:

    I naturally glow, it's part of being in the Boone family, something you just have to accept in life.

    a fairy-tale: *princess george*

    once upon a time there were a king and a queen. then they had a baby. it was a girl. but they wanted a boy instead. so they called her george. the end.

    that is freely translated the story a second-grader here in germany wrote a few weeks ago. for real. i'm not kidding. my friend (who is the teacher of that class and gave the assignment "write a fairy-tale") almost peed her pants when she read it and so did i. now it's framed on her kitchen wall. i confess the name that girl originally used was "horst", but i thought george would work, too.

    aren't kids just the best and make the world so much better? thought i'd share.. ;o)

    Let it glow

    I guess you gotta glow if you gonna be up dis late.

    Those little black scruffy things on your face make you look like a ground hog George. I'd recommend trading in some moonshine for shaving kit. I know there is a little five and dime store in Mud Creek Kantuckeeeee

  • 6. amy said:

    George!

    I, too, live in Lexington (and close to UK). Holla!

  • 7. Margaret said:

    UK??? That's not United Kingdom?? Maybe I've been in Europe too long!!

  • 8. aibee said:

    A beard pass?

    *blink*

  • 9. Dee said:

    Hi GEORGE!

  • 10. oneofakind2727 said:

    George looks good in blue...oh yeah and GEORGE!

  • 11. Trace said:

    What a cutie patootie!

  • 12. Kimba No Limba said:

    Jorge!

  • 13. Kimba No Limba said:

    oh, and i live in the midwest and i say pantyhose. but i don't call my underwear panties because that's just wrong. it is like saying slacks. i hate that word. slacks. slaaacks.

  • 14. IHateToast said:

    I used to be Panty-Phobic until I started calling my hubby's undies Manties. And a friend taught me that everything that contains something is a panty. The Container Store is the Panty store. Undies are ass-panties. Jars are jam-panties, I store veggies in ziploc panties.

    Slacks is horrible. Very daggy. I can see the ironed crease. I like britches. Has a sort of Tom Sawyer scruffiness about it.

    As for George.... I think that photo should be submitted for the new 7 dollar bill!

  • 15. Caroline said:

    GEORGE! George rocks my socks. I'm not drunk today, but I still think George is super hot. Go go George.

    PS
    I've said George five times in this post. That's how big of a crush I have on him. I like him *this much*.

    I promise I'm not a stalker.

  • 16. Super Turtle Girl said:

    No. I'm not falling for it. Not this time. I've said 'George' far too many...oh, damn!

  • 17. oxcc said:

    GEORGE!

    Did anyone else notice that Carol actually got thirteen mentions (now fourteen I guess :) )?

  • 18. Elise said:

    This one looks like it got a little dose of the old Dooce/DJ Blurb Effect. Lookin good George!

  • 19. Sheryl said:

    George, If you hate BYU, why not quit and go somewhere else or do something else? It *is your* life. And ultimately your choice what you do with it.

    The way you live your life is the best form of self expression there is.

  • 21. annakay said:

    when i was at byu i never had an early class. but one morning i was walking on campus earlier than usual, just walking across the quad when this really bizarre thing happened. the national anthem started playing and everyone stopped dead in their tracks. except me. it was the eeriest thing, like a twilight zone where you are the only one not frozen in time. later on i realized it was because the flag was being raised for the day and that this thing happed all the time. that was my first inkling that i was not long for the school. i wish i could have gotten a "skirts that hit just above the knee" pass from my doctor.

  • 22. Peter Hentges said:

    George!!

    (And, Sasha: shut yo' mouth, no such thing as too much George!)

  • 23. the niffer said:

    GEORGE!

    CAROL!

    Chuck in PJs. Please take a picture of Chuck in PJs.

  • 24. George said:

    I am getting out of BYU, I'm gonna transfer after this semester. It feels good to be back on top, no not me, someone just said that to me once.

  • 25. Sheryl said:

    Bravo, George!
    And not because I am anti-religion or anti-Mormon.

    In my life, as I've found the path that doesn't go against my values, and yet the path that doesn't take away my ability to thrive, I've done the best living I can.

  • 26. elswhere said:

    GEORGE!

    There was a kid named George who lived up the street when I was growing up. He was a couple of years younger than me, and he tended to wander. Around dinner time you could hear his dad shouting for him: "George! George! GEOOORGE!"

    So this whole comment thread is making me totally nostalgic.

  • 27. christilee said:

    Crazy. Sweet too.

  • 28. Jeff said:

    GEORGE!!!

  • 29. eco2geek said:

    This strapping young lad that you see
    Loves to hear his name yelled lustily.
    He'll remember his fame,
    How they all yelled his name,
    On the day that he turns eighty-three.

  • 30. sasha said:

    too Much george already!

  • 31. Moxie said:

    I can never again see any Dooce-effect picture without associating it with breast milk.

    I'm not sure George would appreciate that.

    Oh..BTW..you missed your fortune. Lactose gold baby. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=317&item=59343114...

  • 32. Kaycee said:

    George, George,
    George of the Jungle
    Strong as he can be

    George, George,
    George of the Jungle
    Watch out for that Kentuck-eeeeee!

  • 33. espressoblogger said:

    I think we can all agree this George would have made a better president than that other George. Curious George, for that matter, would have made a superior president. I can't believe THAT man is the leader of a country. BLECH!

  • 34. Kimberly said:

    George!!

  • 35. Kevin said:

    I didn't know that Chuck had PJs! :D

  • 36. Cassie said:

    Holy shit George, you have a fan club!

  • 37. Mir said:

    GEEEEEOOOOOOORRRRGGGGGEEEEEEE!

    Wow. Very cleansing!

  • 38. Dez said:

    So what does George think of his cult status? I think he has a pretty wary look in this photo.

    Loved the Sunday entry. Whee goldfish! Lucky Chuck.

  • 39. Human Writes said:

    George, bring that grill out to California and I'll show you how to make $50 the easy way.

  • 40. Chloe said:

    George!!!!
    (yep, that's all. Just wanted to say George! No creepy facts about preying mantises today. Sorry. Wait a minute...)
    Of France!!!!

  • 41. lavonne said:

    George! My mother's middle name was George, because she was supposed to be a boy. She named her dog George. I hated that dog.

  • 42. Leon said:

    Wow!

    Just the other day I was wondering what had happened to Mikey from those Life Cereal Commercials

  • 43. Steve said:

    Is that Michael Moore?

  • 44. Helen said:

    George is a sex machine.
    I accessed your site from a link at ferrousland.com. You are hilarious. I love you. I will be back - I have been sitting at my (work) desk, giggling and pretending I'm not using the internet on work time.....

  • 45. Different Patrick said:

    George!

  • 46. Bruce said:

    michael moore?? i thought it was jack osbourne

  • 47. tabatha said:

    i am so happy to see my donation with requests for "More George" is paying off!

  • 48. annakay said:

    i have also been a george fan since the first time you mentioned him. but my question is, since when did byu start allowing facial hair? could some iota of progress have been made at that place?

  • 49. Colleen said:

    George!

    RE: your last post... was Chuck still in his jammies too? :)

  • 50. Yamila said:

    Jorge!! JORGE!!! (george in spanish)

  • 51. Colleen from NJ said:

    just to clarify... this is not a case of Sybil, but I am the Colleen who wrote the earlier post. I'll sign this way (even admitting I am from New Jersey!!) so in case I insult someone, the innocent Colleen does not get blamed.
    after all, what would George do?

  • 52. Regan said:

    I think George needs his own fan club. The "we love george" club. And we can have a website that is All George, All The Time.

    that would be awesome.

  • 53. Regan said:

  • 54. Regan said:

    i am a big dork for double posting.

    am I kicked out of the George Fan Club now?

  • 55. Dawn said:

    Call me crazy, but I really see a strong resemblance between GEORGE and Leta ~ those Armstrong genes have come through!

  • 56. Angie M said:

    'George' is one one those words/names that, the more you look at it written down, the wronger it looks. George the person though looks mighty fine!

  • 57. Mari said:

    I live in Lexington - just two miles from UK. George is welcome to drop by anytime!!

  • 58. Roberlan Borges said:

    From Brazil... GEORGE!!!!

  • 59. George said:

    annakay I actually have a "beard pass" I think I'm the only one on campus who actually has one. I had to get my doctor back home in Texas to write me a note so I didn't have to shave everyday. Yes, BYU really does sucks, and yes, I have an afro in the picture.

  • 60. Heather said:

    I love George! But is he curious and does he have a friend by the name of "the man in the yellow hat?"

  • 61. Yeti Grrrl said:

    Hey George! How can I get one of those "beard passes" so I dont have to shave my legs more than once aweek?

  • 62. Cassie said:

    I know you love BYU George. Stop being a hater :)

  • 63. Mary said:

    GEORGE!!!

    What the world needs now, is George, more George...

  • 64. shannon c said:

    GEORGE!

    He's the spitting image of my friend Linsel (that's like tinsel with an L)...

    Check it out: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v63/chlortence/linsel.jpg

    (I hope that works...)

  • 65. Julie said:

    GEORGE!

    What a hootie. I can tell he is some kinda freaky too ;)

  • 66. Paula said:

    Mmm George, forget UK, come to Boston! I love me some George!

  • 67. Christine said:

    I think we seriously need to consider changing the name "teddy bear" to "Georgie Bear"... :)

    What a cutie.

  • 68. AndreaBT said:

    GEORGE!!!!

    But...UK??? Sorry, I'm a Purdue girl (something I just inherited from my dad). Go Boilers! (ducking and running)

  • 69. Christine said:

    shannon c:

    That is wild! They really *do* look alike. Linsel looks more intense, though...as if he could be George's evil twin. ROFL!

  • 70. Jenny said:

    GEORGE!

  • 71. pismire said:

    His expression makes me think that he's about to pull a full monty on us. Just one zip of his jacket . . . . .

    2 of our cats are named after Georges - Ivan is named after George Ivan Morrison (a.k.a. Van Morrison) & Hurley is named after George Hurley (Minutemen drummer).

    George!

  • 81. Lisa said:

    HeatherDooce, I love the picture of George. He is welcome to visit us here in KY anytime. I teach at UK, and it's heartwarming to see such a fan. I am assuming he's basing his interest on basketball or academics, because our football team has been faring poorly of late (with the exception of yesterday's win). So, George, do you want to come to UK for graduate school? Let me know--I'll hook you up! :o)

    Lisa

  • 82. Lindsey said:

    Yaaaay, George :)

  • 83. Fran said:

  • 86. annette said:

    Geroge is the man. Extra double points for being a fellow UK fan. As Lisa said above, he's welcome to visit Lexington anytime!

  • 87. Christina said:

    George looks like the funnest kid ever. Come to Upstate NY and party with us George!

  • 88. Beth said:

    GEORGE!

    I also love George for being the Kentucky man that he is!

  • 89. Sue From Ohio said:

    GEORGE!

    Watta man!!! George...remember, you have a place in Ohio with my 3 kids 4 pets and husband...if you so choose to commute to any of our wonderful schools here...so what if I live at least an hour from EVERY stinkin' one!!!

    If anyone is interested in my 'stick bug' that I, ironically, talked about when Dooce posted the Praying Mantis..here is a link. I found it on my screen soon after Dooce's post....http://8.pichold.com/copy_of_100_1218.jpg

    Sorry Heather, I hope that's OK, I just couldn't believe it showed up when it did...(plus, I'm slow at downloading my pictures, obviously...)

    P.S. The Dooce-glow gives him such an angelic effect.
