Taking a break from the marker called in [i.e., Mama's insistence that I fulfill my promise to write about her accomplished friends & former students in a timely way--read previous entry], allow me to introduce the Best of the Best in dog closeups.
First, my own [see photo above]. Sadly, Mama's photographic ability varies. Still, this shot displays my long eyelashes, splendid nose and thick head of lustrous hair to, if not perfection, advantage.
[Observe: left is Mama's slightly better photographic effort added on February 7, 2007]. She hasn't heard the last of the Close up readiness issue. In the meantime, I recommend watching Sunset Boulevard for a first-class close up-- & refer you to [Re]noir entry, January 21, 2007 & Noir, January 26 for more information about film noir. ]
Next, Mary Catherine. Named for the most famous & powerful Russian Emperor[ess], Mary Catherine's Papas treat her with deference only fitting & adamantly insist that others behave similarly. With her regal & commanding demeanor & inherent sense of nobless oblige, prompting is unnecessary; Mary Catherine inspires suitable treatment simply by her aura of authority, her charisma. Adorned with satin and gold--she wears a golden name tag on a Louis Vuitton collar--[see 1/30/07 entry], she is royally coifed and perfumed, and petted by all she encounters.
Finally, the pin-up girl. Miss February, chosen to grace the home and business walls & lockers of men and women alike for the entire month of Februrary [therefore hanging, as I write, in a strategic place selected for most frequent viewing in the Roushanzamir home], stands out from the other 11 celebrity dogs chosen to represent the height of beauty [and the It factor] for this, the most famous edition of the poodle calander. The reason seems obvious. [but for the visually challenged, note her close resemblance to me]
