“How Dare You!”
“What am I, Chopped Liver?”
That was Max’s response when his last post, “Quarantined Malt” garnered no comments.
Zero. Ziltch. Nada.
Turns out, the WordPress “comments” were disabled for that post. Why? Who knows?
Very mysterious, but the problem has been corrected.
The Malt is still indignant.

Look how clean Max is. My little formerly white dog has gone on a mouse-killing rampage. He is muddy All The Time. I wonder how Jacques — or Max, either one — would do against those fat Norway/California rats….

The difference is that the caged garden hasn’t been watered this season, unlike the French jardin where the ferocious and deadly other little white dog was romping. Add a little H20 and Max would have rivalled Jacques for the dirty dog of the week award. If Max cornered a big rat, my money would be on the rat but as long there is an escape route the rodent will take the cowardly way out.

Max, you know we would never ‘not’ comment to a Max post. We might not comment to a Tom post because, well, you know….if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all! 😂😂
I can’t believe your crazy dad put you in that cage, and probably for longer than he’ll admit to. Maybe the California sun has fried his last brain cell.
Murphy was ready to pack up all her toys, and bed, and food and fly out to be with you. I assured her that the AJF wouldn’t let crazy dad get too crazy!! 🙄
And then he pretends you have the dreaded corona virus! I think he’s been drinking too much Corona! Bet he was considering a Go Fund Me page to pay for all your medical bills! Lol.
Hope dad is showering you with kisses and belly rubs. Enjoy being a “cage free” Malt again.

Hold on a second…a GoFundMe page…I think you are on to something Ginger. I hadn’t considered that possibility but I like it. Now, if you are done snarking in my general direction, I will point out that no Malts were harmed in the making of that post. And here all along I expected kind words complimenting my carpentry skills but…nooooooooo. 😛

I don’t know, Toby. So far the comment gallery is full of folks taking undeserved shots at me and making it seem like Max was mistreated (again and again and again.) It’s not fair and balanced. Maybe I should go Desiderata style: “placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.” In fact I think I’ll play some Simon and Garfunkel, perhaps Sounds of Silence. Shhhhhh.

I wondered about that. Thought perhaps you had turned off comments for whatever reason. Please reassure Max that he’s as popular as ever and comments would have accumulated had WP not sabotaged the best intentions.

Suggest you ask a WP rep to call and explain their shortcomings to Max…he should be wearing his viking hat for the occasion and can explain to them that he is capable of making a blood eagle of one of them if it happens again. In that hat they would believe it…I think.

The Berserker Malt strikes fear in the hearts of call center employees globally. Interestingly, the WP tech support were US-based. Can’t say the last time that happened. I usually end up having chats with fine young folk from Bangladesh who swear their names are Bob and Sally.
