Joe Biden + puppy = *thud*#1

EAST COVENTRY — German shepherd breeder Linda Brown looked out her window to find seven black Secret Service vehicles in her driveway over the weekend.

But what would you expect when Vice President-elect Joe Biden goes shopping for a puppy?

It seems President-elect Barack Obama's children were not the only ones promised a dog after the presidential election. Biden's wife, Jill, made the same assurance to her husband if he and Obama, his running mate, won the election.

Jill Biden had taped pictures of different dogs on the back of the seat in front of Biden on his campaign plane to inspire the candidate as he crisscrossed the country in the final sprint to election day, according to published reports during the campaign.

Saturday, Biden selected a three-month-old male German shepherd from one of Brown's litters, a puppy that will turn out to be a "big boy," Brown said with a chuckle.
More puppy pics!

Call the understudy / I can't go on tonight / I'm drinking with my buddy / I'm getting good and tight / Before they raise the curtain I'll be higher than a kite / So call the understudy I can't go on tonight

I wish someone in my family would promise me a puppy for doing good. I got a half-assed promise of a trip to see 'Zorro' that still hasn't come to fruition despite me meeting the criteria. A puppy would be MILES awesomer!

I can just imagine his wife going, "Joe, if you're not the next Vice President of the United States, I'm not getting you a puppy!"

"But... but... but..."

"No buts, mister. Now eat your vegetables and get campaigning!"

OMG I WANT THE PUPPY!! <3

seriously, what an absolutely adorable little fluffball!

I don't need a life that's normal. That's way too far away. But something next to normal would be okay. Something next to normal is what I'd like to try. Close enough to normal to get by.

What does the *thud* refer too?

Someone fall?
