Aye Carumba! There you go again - weeth
your nasty comments about my fine leetle species! Well, while you crazee Huskees and lazy
border collees were trying soo hard to deestract the humans - you deestracted your seelee
selves too! Right under your deestracted noses, my 15 leettle chihuahua commanderos
crossed the border to the US!! We are all soo leetle and cute - we have adopted nice
humans who take good care of us,feed us table food, and let us use the computer!
Viva la Leetle Yapper Dogs!!!

So long as I'm telling tales of Spica in
Princeton, I just have to send off one more quick one. On the campus at Princeton U., in
front of one of the buildings, there are two huge bronze tiger statues. (In case anyone
doesn't know, the tiger is the PU mascot.) We were walking Spica on campus one day and we
came across those statues. She stopped, did a double take and started carefully stalking
them. Those were clearly the biggest cats she'd ever seen and even Spica was going to be
careful of these guys. When they didn't move, she slipped cautiously around behind one of
them and smelled the base of the tail. If it had an identity, she figured it ought to be
there. When she found out it was just a huge hunk of bronze metal, she sort of huffed and
went on about her business. Never again did she pay the least bit of attention to those
two pieces of bronze. (I'd love to see what TAZ's reaction would be to those statues! Just
give me time to get out of the way.) I had a similar experience with Kemo Sabe and the
Nittany Lion statue on the Penn State campus. Spica and I and Kemo were walking up near
Rec Hall one day and I decided to show Kemo the Nittany Lion. Spica, of course, knew
darned well it was just a pile of stone, but Kemo pulled back and absolutely refused to go
near it. I went up and petted it, as does everyone who passes it, and Kemo's amber eyes
got huge. "Mistress, be careful! I can't believe you'd touch that beast!" I
coaxed her into creeping a bit closer and finally she smelled it (in the same place that
Spica smelled the tigers) and figured it out. It never worried her again, but boy was she
concerned about me before she learned what it was!

White House Woes A News Flash from Col. Taz
Greetings Troops!
There is a slogan in the U.S. Marine Corp. that was lifted
from Federal Express’ trademark – "When it absolutely, positively has to be
destroyed overnight."
Obviously, this Marine moniker was inspired by watching a
husky in action. We do it complete. We do it thorough. We do it right. We are huskies!
This compulsion for perfection in destruction brings us to
the recent noted difficulties U.S. President Bill Clinton is having. His innocent coffee
klatches were videotaped and lots of influential people who just happen ed to be visiting
the White House while the coffee was served and the videos were shot ended up giving about
$27 million to his political party. The problem is (assuming that all politicians are scuz
and would all do the same money grubbing) 1) that the tapes were discovered in the first
place and 2) that when the tapes were supeoned, they were really amateurish and the sound
was partially deleted.
We all know what this means. The video was obviously shot
by the top DemoCAT. That’s right, Socks was in charge of the filming. Without a
husky, or any trusted canine for that matter, in the White House, the president h as
misguidedly placed his trust in a cat. Leave it to a cat that the president trusts to not
only get the incriminating stuff into the wrong hands, but to screw it up just producing
it.
Now, if one of us, one of the WeHUSKYcans had been in
charge of this coffee klatch project it would have been done right! Clear video, expertly
edited, well choreographed, in depth interviews, surround sound in Dolby st ereo. All
combined with a thrilling musical score composed by Elton John and performed by the New
London Symphony Orchestra.
That way, it is befitting of the President. And if it needs
to be deep sixed, we We HUSKYcans can take care of that too! The tape would be chewed and
shredded so beyond recognition that there won’t even be a rumor that one existed in
the first place. Not only that, a husky would do a thorough job, not just destroying the
tape, but also all the video equipment, all the furniture in the room and everything in
the adjacent hallway!! Remember, when it comes to destruction, Huskies do it right!
So, the lesson here is that cats will always betray you. If
only Bill Clinton had owned a husky….
Have your humans write and demand more huskies in
government!
Keep up the good work, Troops! Col. TAZ
Col. Taz,
I wholeheartedly agree that we should be in
the White House and in Washington, but do we really want to be associated with BC.
Obviously, he's not giving cats a good image.

ACTUALLY, MSGT RUFUS, WE HAVE A TOP SECRET,
UNDERCOVER STRIKE TEAM THAT YOU WOULD BE PERFECT FOR.
YOU HAVE IT BACKWORDS. IT IS NOT TACTICS,
IT IS CALLED CATTICKS. YES, IT IS A PLAN TO INFEST CATS WITH TICKS. NOT ONLY WOULD THIS
SLOW THEM DOWN FROM LOSS OF BLOOD, BUT WITH SELECTED STRAINS OF LYME DISEASE, THE CAT'S
EYES WOULD CROSS AND THEY WOULD ALL BE SIAMESE. WITH DOUBLE VISION, THEY WOULD SEE TWICE
THE NUMBER OF HUSKIES THEY DO NOW!!!
COL. TAZ
Sorry, sorry, I lost my head there. I have
reviewed your files and would like to recommend to Col. Taz that you head up a Special
Tactics Force. Your talents are very valuable and can be put to good use.
Col. Taz, I submit this recommendation for
your review and approval.
Lt. Serena
ME THINKS AT THIS POINT, ALL HUSKIES SHOULD
STEER CLEAR OF MR. C. WITH ALL THE TROUBLE HE'S GETTING INTO THESE DAYS, EVEN A WHOLE
IDITAROD TEAM OF HUSKIES COULDN'T HELP HIM ESCAPE!!
COL. TAZ
I know that many Sibernetters are very
excited about the Nationals which are around the corner. I'm sure those who are unable to
attend will hear about the great time had by all, as we sit home turning green. I wonder
how many of you would be interested in following the training and preparation of an all
Siberian Iditarod team in the "Last Great Race" to Nome? Want to get involved? I
realize that this is not the sleddog channel, but think it would be fun. Actually, I think
Taz would make a great leaddog, but I realize he is otherwise occupied as Colonel. Let me
know,

AS THE IDITAROD IS THE TRAINING GROUND FOR
THE HUSKY "SEAL" TEAM "SIBERIAN EARLY ANIMAL LIBERATION", A GROUP THAT

BUT ALSO EDUCATE THEMSELVE ABOUT THIS MOST IMPORTANT EVENT. HUMANS SHOULD BE INTERESTED. I
ENDORSE YOUR SUGGESTION.
COL TAZ
To: Col. Taz From: Lt. Beerme, BadgerDen
Regiment
I am am proud to report the following:
We have become so profficient at mind
control that we made our human trade her Nissan 300ZX turbo (which could only hold one
crate and was a bad color for us) for a motorhome...(red and white goes well with our fur
and holds six large crates comfortably, twice that if we really pack them in). Using mind
control, we convinced the RV guy to go for an even trade, so we won't suffer from Michelle
having to make payments!
We have complete control over the humans at
one local TV station that now films us on regular occassions for Wednesday's Child, and
uses footage of us as trailers to entice other humans to watch the news. They even show us
more than the child they spotlight! You should hear the wonderful things they say about us
on the air!!!
We have also succeeded in convincing our
female human to seek sponsorship from the dog food manufacturerer ( mmm! love that free
food!) so we can afford more show trips. We are working on the dog food bigwigs and are
gaining control of them as well...They are putty in our paws!
We've convinced her that Sara has been
spooked in the ring and so she is spending extra time in the house (spying, of course!)
All Sara had to do was act afraid at the Lubbock shows and now she is in like Flynn!!
Unfortunately, our lady has to have back
surgery next week and will be going nomail for a while. We will give you further updates
as soon as she is up to taking mail again...
Onward for the cause!!
Lt. Beerme
Message to Lt. Beerme, BadgerDen Regiment:
Outstanding work Lt.!! Another triumph for
the Husky Horde. Please tell your human that my human and the Pack wish her well in her
surgery and a speedy recovery.
Sibes Rule!!
Major Shadow aka Hellraiser and the SW
Portland regiment of the Great Husky Horde
Memo to Col. Taz from Maj. Shadow
Col. Taz sir: The SW Portland unit has just
returned from our reconnaissance assignment in the Canadian Rockies. First, you will be
pleased to hear that our influence over our humans is so total that they towed a small
trailer and bought a roof-top carrier for the van so we could have the WHOLE van from the
front seats clear to the back door. We frequently volunteered to drive but they insisted
that was their job. They also found a new place for us to stay which had plenty of room
for us and lots of interesting wildlife in the surrounding areas.
However, while we met many humans from the
far east and saw many other canines we did not see any other soldiers from the Husky Horde
in the area. Being good ambassadors for our breed we allowed ourselves to be photographed
many times with people from all over the world. People frequently commented on how well
trained we were which shows that our mind-control is working A-OK. We also can report that
from the number of elk observed in downtown Banff there is an ample food supply to allow a
large Siberian contingent to be quartered there. Furthermore, it snowed while we were
there which further proves the suitability of the area for our troops.
We are already working on sending
suggestions to our humans for another posting to Banff National Park next year.
Your faithful servant, Major Shadow
URGENT MESSAGE TO COL. TAZ
From Major Shadow code name: Hellraiser
Sir! I think the humans are getting suspicious sir. There have been several posts to the
Sibernet e-mail list in the last day concerning how smart Siberians are. One human even
observed her Siberians having a conversation and a couple other humans wrote about their
Siberians clever toilet arrangements! This is dangerous, sir! We know that humans aren't
too swift but lately some of them seem to be putting two and two together. We have managed
to keep humans in the dark for thousands of years but now that they are communicating with
each other over the Internet and comparing notes the heat is on! You must send a memo to
the Horde telling them to be more circumspect when humans are near or our whole Revolution
is in danger of being discovered before we are ready to take over!
Respectfully, Major Shadow of the NW
Coalition, SW Portland detachment
CALM DOWN, YOUNG PUP!! FIRST OF ALL,
MULTIPLICATION NEVER HURTS. IF HUMANS PUT TWO AND TWO TOGETHER, WHAT THEY GET IS A DOG
SLED TEAM.
WITH THE FAULTINESS IN MIND CONTROL, EVEN
WITH OUR ADVANCED FOIL EAR HATS, SOMETIMES THE DIRECT METHOD IS STILL THE BEST. TALKING TO
HUMANS IS NO BIG DEAL. GETTING THEM TO LISTEN IS THE TRICK.
FINALLY, IF THE ONLY THING HUMANS
CONCENTRATE ON IS CLEVER TOILET ARRANGEMENTS, THEN THE BATTLE IS WON!!!
DON'T PANIC. STAY THE COURSE. REMEMBER:
SIZE IS NO MARK OF A LITTLE MIND. JUST LOOK AT ANY HUMAN.

Subject: Request to Col. Taz Date: Friday,
November 07, 1997 12:10 PM
Col. Taz:
I am Alyeska. I live in Twin Falls, Idaho.
I would like to enlist in your cause. Although I am not a full blooded Husky, I believe I
would be a valuable asset to your troops. Let me explain.
I have my caretaker completely under my
control, and her landlord. I persuaded the landlord to allow dogs in the house my
caretakers rent. I also have her so under control I can send suggestions across town to
her at work. The post about your homepage was MINE! And all this without the assistance of
a foil beanie.
Now on to the tactical advantages I could
give you:
I live equal distances from both the
Mountain home Air Force Base, and the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory. This Lab is
located near Arco, Idaho, which was the first town in the world to be totally powered by a
nuclear generator. Many top secret tests and experiments are performed there. My
caretakers like to climb a mountain near there, so while they are attempting to summit, I
could easily infiltrate the Lab.
Also, the relatives of my caretakers own a
square mile of land with large buildings where they suck the milk out of cows. It would be
a wonderful training place, as these cows would provide an unlimited supply of milk, and
it has much farmland densly populated with the best entertainment of all...CATS!!! They
swarm in droves to the pans of milk the caretakers put out. Also, a dense population of
ducks and geese would provide fighting practice against flying enemies.
I am eagerly awaiting your reply, and hope
I can become a member of your team.

Greetings Alyeska! Welcome to the World Husky
Organizational Alliance or WHOA! as we vets call it. Thank you so much for volunteering
your services. We huskies are proud of being go getters, not lounging around and waiting
for someone to toss a rubber ball and yell at us to run and get it!!
I shudder to think of the amazing things a Nuclear Powered
Husky could do! A one dog - dog sled team that runs the iditarod in three days -- and
doesn't need to stop for rest. Not only that, the thermonuclear output of the sibe would
create such a warm downdraft that the musher could go the distance wearing only a Hawaiian
shirt and Bermuda shorts! And the Tan that he would sport --- oops, excuse me, we are
talking Iditarod here -- the bikini tan she would have...!!!
Of course there would have to be experiments in special
coatings for dog hair to prevent it from flaming up during the run.
As for the cows coming home and the cats that follow, my
advice is to let the cats drink all the milk they like. If kindness and cholesterol
doesn't kill them, all those fat cats will have to do our bidding when they become so
corpulant they can't trundle away!
Excellent strategies SGT. Alyeska! Welcome to the Corps!!

Attention all ye disbelievers in the

and surfed onto Our Leader's website. A lady was standing right next to me. One look, that
is all, ONE SECOND on the website and she was on me like a husky on a Kong ball filled
with peanut butter. " Awwww, what a BEAUTIFUL dog"...she cooed. "You MUST
give me that website address!!" Ten minutes later I had her deciding to sign up for
Sibernet-L and she departed vowing to access all husky websites ASAP at home.

Greetings Troops! As you know, huskies are taking over the
world. The World Husky Organizational Alliance (WHOA!) is making tremendous strides . It
is now well documented that huskies are making their presence known throughout the entire
communications and media world.
Huskies have historically made their presence known and
felt throughout the world. Every trip to the North pole and South pole as well as the
TransAntartic quest prominently featured huskies. Huskies have their own sporting events,
from the world Famous Iditarod and Yukon Quest, to any number of regional sled races.
There are Husky Heroes with statues erected in their honor – Togo and Balto. Movies
and animated films like Balto and White Fang are continuous popular box office fare. Yes,
even classic radio programs like Sergeant Preston of the Yukon boldly feature huskies. So,
ask yourself, how many other breeds of dogs have been so blessed, admired and adventurous
as we? Are their any statues dedicated to heroic Pomeranians? Did the Cisco Kid ever have
a chihuahua as a side kick? Did the Russians ever send a wiener dog into space? NO!
Look at our progress toward world dominion. We are the only
ones who control the foil beanie technology. Huskies were the only ones to make contact
with the Roswell Space Aliens. We have already notified you that we have an Internet
Service Provider – HuskyNet, the operates in the key Washington D. C. area, poised to
take control when the time is right. Ready to pounce as soon as Socks the cat and that
saxophone player he hangs around with are unemployed and forced to vacate from the White
House.
Yes, there is HuskyNet, but note – there is no CatNet!
Only cat nip! And thank goodness all us huskies are drug free animals!! We don’t need
cat nip to go bonkers! We can go bonkers completely naturally!!
Now is the time to consolidate our forces. And in that vein
I am pleased and proud to tell you of the launch and inception of the Official Colonel Taz
Headquarters Web Site!! There is a direct email line to the command center for urgent
messages and orders directly from headquarters. Plus, an arsenal of links to other fronts
in the quest for world dominion.
Of special interest to our SCAT squads ( Special Cat Attack
Team) is our cat section. Through painstaking work, we have cracked the ultra secret cat
code language of MEOW and can now offer fully decoded interceptions of their transmissions
and strategic sites and links.
Finally, added inspiration comes from a classified photo of
the colonel in full dress uniform – yes he actually did wear the uniform for the
portrait. You can reach the official Col. Taz headquarters at
http://www.geocities.com/heartland/ranch/5526/
the colonel’s official email is
coloneltaz@geocities.com
Good luck Troops! And God’s Speed!!
Col. TAZ
Date: Friday, November 07, 1997 6:31 PM
Greetings Troops! It is now well documented that huskies
are making their presence known throughout the entire communications and media world. A
prime expample is this month (December 1997)prestigous Playboy and the November GQ
-(Gentleman's Quarterly) magazines. The GQ / Ralph Lauren ad is prominently placed at the
front of the magazine. The ad places the Husky is direct center of the advertisement!! And
on the next page, the photographer was so stunned with the power and beauty of the husky,
he forgot to put in any of the Ralph Lauren apparel or even the human models!!
As for Playboy, the male humans will probably not notice,
but yes, there at the bottom of the photo of Miss December is a group of huskies. This is
how we subtly use our influence. Totally subliminal, since the males will never actually
see the huskies, but they will somehow know that they were there. Plus they will use it as
an excuse to look up the photo again and again! The huskies are prominent --- either
snarling or yawning – can’t quite figure out which – probably the latter
since those photo shoots take so long. I wonder how many areas of the human got frost
bitten? At least we know the toes and her head were OK. And, how far do you think the dog
sled team got before she figured out how to stop them? Four, Five, Ten miles? How many
accidents do you think they caused when they reached the Interstate Highway?
"I swear officer, it was a fabulously beautiful
Totally Naked woman being hauled by a team of sled dogs. How could I keep my 18 wheeler on
the road -- certainly I couldn't see the road with all that instant fog on the
windshield...I bet she was Santa's Big helper!!!"
So, as you can see, one picture, with huskies is worth a
thousand words...and several car and truck wrecks, and lots of wishful thinking and
requests for Santa to handle...
fortunately, we huskies are immune to such things. And by
the way, you won't ever see Miss December posing with Chihuahuas!!!

Col. Taz, Our Roswell detachment is
reporting another sucessful mission. Our newest allies, the foxes, have agreed to let us
use their large TV network. Their first broadcast was aired yesterday evening: at our
request they ran the episode of The X-Files where Fox Mulder's computer geek friends are
advised by the police to wear their foil beanies. The timing could not have been better
since X-mas is coming soon and we need to set our humans to work gathering and
distributing treats and gifts for us. As we all know having them wear their beanies not
only makes them easier to control but also makes them more decorative. Acually might I be
so bold as to suggest that we have them wear red and green foil beanies to get them into
the right mindset?

Last night on the "X Files" near

YOURSELVES FELLOW TROOPERS. THIS WAS ONLY A TEST, KIND OF LIKE THE EMERGENCY BROADCAST
SYSTEM WHICH THE HUMANS BLAST OFF ONCE A MONTH TO SEE HOW MANY HEART ATTACKS THEY CAN
TRIGGER, DOGS THEY CAN GET TO HOWL AND HEARING AIDS THEY CAN DAMAGE.
IN OUR CASE, THIS WAS AN ATTEMPT TO SEE HOW
MANY OF OUR GULLIBLE HUMAN OWNERS ACTUALLY WATCH THE X FILES AND ACTUALLY BELIEVE THE
INFORMATION THEY PROVIDE. WE, OF COURSE, KNOW THAT FOIL BEANIES ACTUALLY HELP US TO
CONTROL HUMAN THOUGHTS, HOWEVER, IF THE HUMANS BELIEVE IT WARDS OFF ALIEN MIND PATTERNS,
THEY WILL WILLINGLY DON THE BEANIES AND FALL HOPELESSLY INTO OUR CONTROL!!!
ALL, OF COURSE, EXCEPT THOSE WHO DON'T
WATCH X FILES OR WHO LIVE IN AUSTRALIA WHERE THEY WON'T SEE THIS EPISODE UNTIL NEXT

Ok guys!! What's going on?? I was driving
around town here today and I got behind a car that had Taz stickers on it. On the rear
window though were the words "Scott and the TAZ Man." Hmmmm - have you been
visiting or has Taz got some operatives here? Maybe that's why my guys have been going
wild lately!!!

Friday, November 14, 1997 11:52 PM
Oh man, am I in trouble now!!! Taz told me specifically
that the bumper stickers were supposed to read "TAZ man and his faithful pal
Scott" He'll probably take it out of my allowance. Darn darn darn!!
It's actually the promo for his new career as a Rap Artist
(I know, contraction in terms just like Rap Music). It's part of his national tour. His
Rapper title is, of course, "ICE BLU" The main title track for the new CD is
"Taz Man and his faithful pal Scott". Other titles include: "Hit the road
running." Life's a Dog Park away." "Limited Edition (Been Fixed
Blues)" "Too Husky for you" "Howl at the Moon" "Tatoos in My
Ears" "Blowin' Coat" "You Be Alpo" (Gangsta rap)
It's hard being a "roadie" to a husky.

About a month ago Gary Paulsen spoke at the
Twin Falls City Library. I was lucky enough to get a ticket (they sold out in 1 hour) I
have never heard anything so funny, or so touching. His story about being rescued off the
ice>in the 95 Iditarod was SO funny, it nearly had people rolling in the aisles, and
the stories about his favorite dogs had many of us tearing up. Col TAZ may be interested
to know that he no longer has sled dogs. Now he has CHIHUAHUAS!! For anyone who's
interested, he has a new book coming out about a cross-country >ride on Harleys, and
how people treat you differently when you ride a bike. It's actually an adult book. It's
definately an experience I won't soon forget.

So, Mr. Paulsen has Great stories about huskies and
sledding and the Iditarod...How many funny stories and books has he done with Chihuahuas?
Are Chi-chi dogs riding his Harley? Huskies look bold on aHog...how do chi-chi dogs look?
This was all the Col. could say, he said chi-chi dog so
many times he had to go and get a drink. He just has trouble with teeny dogs.
