Dog the Bounty Hunter

Dog the Bounty Hunter wearing Roberto Cavalli, I LOVE IT.

Some people may stop reading my blog because of this post. I don't care. I have to say that the white trash part in me is in love with Dog the Bounty Hunter. I love everything about him. I love his mullet, I love his shirt unbuttoned to his stomach, I love his jewels, I love his tattoos, I love his boots, and I love that he wears Roberto Cavalli shirts. The thing I love most about him is that he in a very strange way reminds me of my dad. Before you die of shock, I have to say that the reason he does is because he is such a tough, strong man and he loves his family and that is evident. He loves his kids and that too is evident. He loves his grand kids and just kids in general, that is evident. I have always thought of my dad as the most manly man around, he can do anything, fix anything, knows everything, can build anything and so on. To me, he hung the moon. I have always thought that of my father. The thing that most resembles my father about Dog is the protector in him. My dad is SO protective of my mother, first of all. No one talks back to her or disrespects her in his presence. If so, you will pay for it, dearly. He is protective of his girls. He worries constantly and is always looking out for us. I know that if some disaster ever happened, that my dad would come for me and my girls because my James would be immediately called out. Those are the things about Dog that remind me of my dad.
I have been watching this show for four years, I am proud to say that and I have loved nearly every minute of it. I have been mocked for my love of this show and yet I still watch. The reason for this post today is that this week they had a special for the 200th show. There was a look back the season and then the 200th show after that. I cried watching this show. I know it's lame, but truly it touched me. Dog cries all the time. Even though he wears his sunglasses constantly and tries to hide it, you can tell he tears up often. It is very touching to see such a big, strong, tough and rough man tear up and cry about the most tender things. The births of babies, weddings etc. My father is that man. He doesn't cry often but his heart is touched often and I always know when that is and it's priceless.
I admire Dog and his family. They are compassionate to the people they arrest and try to help them as much as possible. They are this way because each of them have lost their way one time or another in their lives. They understand how it goes and don't judge. I have to say that I hope to be like the Chapman family in this regard. I can leave out the bad, terrible hair, gross nails and slutty clothes, but I wish I was more compassionate to others and was less judgemental. They do a lot of good in the world and I admire them for that. Way to go!
~Tune in next week~
