Very Talented Dog
I don't normally pay attention to talent shows, but I have to share this clip from last night's episode of Britain's Got Talent. The dog is called Gin, and his trainer is only 15 years old. She must have spent hours training her dog to "dance" like that!

AAAAW ! That's so funny and adorable !!!!!!
This dog is really clever !!!... Like most of the the seepdogs (because I think it is one, no ?!) !
And what I appreciate too, this dog seems to enjoy itself with his mistress !!!
It's not like an animal show, when some animals are just trained to do some specific tricks, but just want to come back "home" !... If you know what I mean !
Thanks for this lovely vid !!!!
And good luck for this couple on Saturday ! ;D

My mother watches a programme called the "Dog Whisperer" and the trainer doesn't like teaching dogs tricks, because he thinks that people should learn dog behaviour - how on owner can tell their dog that they are the leader of a pack - so that their dogs are well behaved. And while I agree with that, when a dog looks like it's enjoying performing tricks, then I say that there's no harm in that.

I wonder how it'd go learning Geoffy's swish kick!? XD

(Wow, Simon Cowell has something nice to say? And is it just coincidence--and/or my imagination--that that middle judge looks like Paul Abdul?)

Actually, I know that Simon Cowell has got a reputation for being incredibly mean, but to be honest, from the comments he gave people in Britain's Got Talent this week, he seems to know his stuff and it's no wonder that he's been so successful at signing and finding good acts. His biggest problem is that he is incredibly blunt, and if he doesn't like you he won't sugar coat his words to make people less hurt. And to be honest, in the entertainment business critics can murder you, so he's only really giving you a taste of what a bad review can give you.
And maybe Amanda Holden looks a bit like Paula Abdul. She's the 'nice', emotional one, anyway!
(By the way, I love your icon. Jeff from Coupling rocked! It's a pity he wasn't in all the episodes!)

I suppose so, but at least entertainers can avoid reviews if they want to (just like George Bush refuses to watch/read the news!). But on American Idol he does it to their face on national TV--there's no escape. I think that's what's mean about it. But then, that's a big part of the show, and I suppose these people bring it on themselves by entering the contest. They should know what to expect. (Not that I've ever watched it myself--not even once. But even I know what to expect from him!)
LOL, that's not Jeff, it's Michael Sheen playing a rock star in Laws of Attraction, but it's funny you should confuse them because Jeff reminds me of Michael Sheen. I thought maybe it was just the Welsh accent (not that Michael really speaks with one), but you can't hear that from the picture, can you? I mean ... (Oh dear ( ... )

And, yeah, it sounds exactly like what Jeff would say on coupling.
About Simon Cowell. People love to 'hate' certain TV personalities, so I guess the whole mean persona is just giving people what they want. In fact, I'm sure that the producers encourage controversy like that to attract more viewers.
