Another Bubble, More Trouble

Last week I posted my favorite saying from my Facebook friends for what Newman in "Newman's Big Adventure" would be saying. Now, I want to post my favorite Facebook friend's saying for what the lab in "Life's Ruff" is dreaming of. I have to admit, I thought it was pretty clever for Kerry H. from right here in Phoenix, Arizona to plug the release of my new book Rufus Rhymes. So, I declare him the "wiener"! Kerry and I have a lot in common, as his interests are "Dogs, movies, dogs... friends, dogs, more friends, art..."

Again, if you can't read the type it says, "Dreaming of the release of Rufus Rhymes." Thanks again for the plug Kerry!

My Paintings Really SPEAK to People!

Last week, I put up one of my all time favorite images, "Newman's Big Adventure," in a Facebook album and asked my friends to tell me what they thought Newman was saying. There were a lot of really funny and great replies, but I thought I'd pick my favorite and feature it right here on my blog! So, without further ado... my favorite entry came from Andrea, a representative of Jersey Shore, NJ! She's a mother, and I hope her kids (2-legged and/or 4-legged) find her as funny as I do!

Below, you'll find Newman saying Andrea's statement. If you're having trouble reading it, it says, "Before you look in the truck all I can say is, I'm Sorry."

Happy Birthday to You!

I'm about to head out to celebrate with my wife Buff, because today is her birthday! So I just wanted to quickly write a little something about it here in my blog.

At the risk of sounding corny, sappy, etc., I am simply going to say that I am grateful for each day I have with her. We have been together since we were 15 years old, and have always been a great team. She encouraged me to become an artist full-time, and is an important part of my both my personal and professional life. Plus, she's a great mom to our two dogs, Emma and Logan.

So, Happy Birthday Buff and here's to many more birthdays spent together!

What Ron Burns Dog Are You?

About a week ago, I posted a quiz to my Facebook page called "What Ron Burns Dog Are You?" The quiz asks seven simple questions, and then matches you with a variety of different dogs, from a lovably lazy Basset Hound to a high energy Retriever. If you'd like to join the almost 200 people who have taken the quiz, to find out what you are, check it out here http://apps.facebook.com/whatronburnsdog/. You'll have to either already have a Facebook account, or sign up for one to take the quiz, but I think it's totally worth it!
