Woof! Gore Verbinski's Bioshock


So this guy Harold Goldberg helped me write my White House Dog Tales poem.

He writes a lot about video games, and I like them, too, as you can see in my story when Mario and Luigi appear.

Anyway, Harold came over and whispered to me that Gore Verbinski is telling his pals that his version of Bioshock may be his best movie yet. That's a big statement since the director made those Pirates of the Caribbean movies.

Gore, reports Harold, is telling people he knows that "I really want to scare people with this movie. I want a kid to go to the movie and say to his friends, 'Whatever you do, don't go see that movie. It's too scary.'"

I don't like to be scared. I'm too young. But Harold loves horror.


Rhyming Away.

I feel like rhyming this morning.
Sometimes I bark without warning.
It doesn't mean I don't admire you.
It might mean I want to hire you
To make a glass dog bowl at Corning.

Bo Runs Like The Wind!

Man, there were a lot of people there yesterday as I was introduced.

It made me want to run wild like the wind (as you'll see in this clip below).

I also licked and smelled a few hands and generally woofed it up.

As the President said, "He's a good looking dog." I won't argue with that. They're a good looking family, too. Woof!

Bo Knows White House!


Woof! It's Bo here, woofing your way.

Today's the big day, bigger than a juicy slice of bacon.

I'll be introduced to you, the American Citizen. There'll be lots of press; I'm not even sure what they are yet. But I'm told they have cameras. Even though I'm only six months old, people have already taken many pictures of me. I guess it's OK. I'm just a dog, though. I don't understand all the commotion.

I'm really glad to be with the Obamas, even though I won't be announced until today. And I really wanted to be at that Easter Egg Roll yesterday. I wanted to hear the President read Where The Wild Things Are - because I'm a little wild, too, being just six months old and all. 

That's me in a photo by Pete Souza. I don't know what they put on me, though: too many colors!

I have a story, too. It rhymes with the tenor of the times. No hard sell, though. I will say it will make you laugh and there's a mystery, too. See you at The White House! Woof!
