Baby Bed

My good friend Peter is picking up my slack in the video creation department, and I thank him for that. So the least I can do is write the intro for the latest Bench Dogs video in our blog. Quite possibly it is the VERY least that I can do.

Perhaps y'all notice a trend in the videos which come out of the Bench Dog Production offices (snicker!)-- Pete's videos are all centered around the love of his life, his daughter. We all appreciate that perspective... well, those of us with children, anyway. His doll house video received the highest "sniffle rating" of any Bench Dog video. People were dabbing their eyes for hours after watching that one!

Me on the other hand, my daughter is fully grown. Cute just doesn't cut it around her latest tattoo or piercing, and the four-inch ear loops, I have to admit, are a little skin-crawly! So for sweet and touching videos I turn to my recent collection of cats. It's true-- up until last year I only ever had a maximum of 2 cats. Thanks in part to the neighborhood cats who have picked up on my feeding schedule, I now maintain eleven-- that's right, eleven-- cats. Don't worry-- only 3 of those are indoor cats. Another two are rescued kittens which are waiting for their full health to return before we put them back outside (at least they won't be making any more babies). My next video, which is only about 3 months in the making, is the modification of a table we keep outside into a weather-resistant storage box for charcoal, cat food, and a crash area for cats that keeps them warm and dry.

Enough about me. Today's video I have entitled "Watch Pete Make What He Thinks Is A Cradle But Actually Is A Mini Four-Poster Bed." That's MY name for it. His title is simply "Baby Bed." He keeps honing his abilities in the shop. If he keeps this up we may have to switch roles. Good. I'm tired of playing the hardass.
