The Eye On The Park...

Dateline Lincoln Park:

Could former international supermodel Lily Hilton be possessed by a demon?

"Absolutely impossible," according to Lady Dixie Simba, her business partner. "If it were true, I'd be on the phone to Art Bell in a greyhound minute."

"Cat whiz!" responded Minnie Schnauzer, Lily's most recent personal assistant. "I've heard her howling in tongues, cursing Dog, and seen her foaming at the mouth. I got so frightened, I phoned the vet to make sure her rabies shot was current."

There have also been rumors about Lily viciously attacking three psychiatrists and a half-dozen priests.

"Nothing more than a misunderstanding," insisted Lady Dixie, but several former COL staff members say it isn't so.

"It started right after her former cratemate, Spencer, married that chipmunk," said onetime aerobics instructor, Jackie Russell. "Lily just didn't seem like herself anymore, and then I noticed that her eyes were glowing in the dark. I've never believed in all that devil stuff before, but you couldn't get me back inside that church for a million bowsers."

Supposedly the situation has become so dire that King Rockie himself decided to intervene. He paid a personal visit to Lily, but left the church ten minutes later, and had no comment for the press.

"Lily howled curses at the king," said an anonymous source, Buddy Anonymous. "Her eyes started to glow and she began to levitate. His Majesty has always liked Lily, but the scene she threw was too much even for him."

"The rumors are true," admitted Jade Jardine, Lily's newly adopted daughter, in a quickie interview at Poppa Poochies bar. "I noticed a change in Mother not long after I prepared a new signature perfume for her. Believe me, I was careful with the ingredients, but after I smelled it on her, I realized that something was wrong."

"Can't you fix the problem?" we asked, while ordering a couple of double gin chain-collar whammers in an effort to fix our own.

"No," she replied, "and she won't stop using the scent. Dixie says she can smell it all over the place, and I can't do a thing about it."

"Why not?"

She hung her head. "Something has happened to my nose," she howled. "I can't SMELL anymore."

While Jade choked back sobs, we watched as four squad cars, followed by a busload of priests, whipped past, heading in the direction of Lily's infamous church.

Hey, dogs -- how about NO one has a dog in any fight? This blog is already set to automatically delete postings that include certain words and phrases -- note numerous recent deletes -- and I'm ready to put a couple of names up there.

Look, either switch to a political blog, where you can call each other whatever you want, or get together outside a bar and beat the crap out of one another.

But stop using my blog for your snap-and-snarls, or I'm personally going to neuter both of you.

Love and Licks...LuLu~

From the files of Attorney General Sammy Chan:

"Exactly two minutes after midnight," I said, glancing at the clock on my desk. "You're right on time."

He dropped a disreputable-looking steak bone onto the floor, flopped down and gave it a gnaw. "I like to be on time. It's become a compulsion with me."

"Hello, Marco."

"Hi, Sam. Sniffed any good tail lately?"

I hopped off my comfortable leather chair and stretched out next to him on the floor. "You tell me. I'm only the local attorney general, you're the shamus."

Marco wagged his tail. "You been hangin' with a good-looking Maltese who goes by the name of Chewy, and I think you've also got your eye on a leggy Great Dane name of Jade Jardine."

"The Jardine matter is entirely professional, Marco."

"Uh-huh. You're too sweet on the bitches, Sam. You're smart as a whip but too sweet on the bitches. Remember Trixie, that German Shepherd in San Francisco?"

I winced. "Oh, yes. I remember Trixie."

"Sometimes your reach exceeds your grasp, Sam."

"I'll keep it in mind, Marco. Meanwhile, what are you doing here?"

He gnawed on the bone for a bit before answering. "Like I barked --I'm at loose leash ends again. I was sniffing cases for the DEA for a while, but after the bomb squad, sniffing for ashes and blow just don't tweak my whiskers."

"I remember how you loved to chase cars alongside the freeway when you were a pup. It had to be the freeway; everything else was boring."

"Yep. I was the bad dog and you were the angel, and I guess it paid off for you. Got a job for me, Sammy?"

I rolled over on my back and stared at the ceiling. For a few minutes I watched as a spider dangled from her web. A precarious position, I thought, but she somehow seemed to manage it.

"I might have something for you, but first I'd like the name of your current employer."

I listened to him as he gnawed on the bone. I was getting nowhere fast.

"Jade Jardine thinks you're tailing her."

"Sam, if I was tailin' her, she wouldn't know about it."

"Then why does she think it?"

"You know me, Sammy. I'm a suspicious-looking dog, and maybe I dropped the word to a couple of mutts that I was interested in the dame. She's a kennel of a looker -- great markings, endless legs. Woof!"

I rolled back over on my stomach. "And if I know you, the reason you'd do that would be tactical obfuscation. My guess is, you're tailing somebody else."

"I'm at loose ends, Sammy, honest. But by the bark, the mammal shadowing your friend Jade is a hot little ferret who goes by the name of Monica."

"I already know that."

His eyes widened. "You did learn a few things from me back in the bad old days, didn't you, Sam?"

I wagged my tail. "You were one of the best professors I ever had, Marco. Maybe THE best. What else have you picked up on the street, aside from bones and pizza crusts?"

"Not much. Obviously you know about Lily Hilton. The lovely celebrity spaniel is supposedly possessed by a demon."

"I've heard about little else of late. We've got reporters arriving in town from all over the world. Traffic's become a nightmare, and the right-wing religious hounds want us to shut down Lily's church."

"Interesting that she's Ms. Jardine's adoptive mother, and Ms. Jardine has lost her sense of smell."

"She has?"

"I got it straight from the lovely LuLu, my recent date." He winked.

I ignored him. "You think there's a possible connection between Lily's 'condition' and Jade's lost sense of smell?"

"Are you giving me a job, Sammy?"

The Lottery was about outworn customs and ridiculous traditions, and it ended with a stoning, if I'm on the right page. For now I would rather read about spaniel possession. Hare-raising nonsense?
