Please join us now for a yuletide classic carol while Mom continues to work on our new site. This parody by Asa was first debuted in 2017, and has become a timeless classic in our household. We hope you enjoy this stroll down memory lane of Christmases past. Deck the Dogs with Boughs of Holly […]
Asa here. As an up and coming rock star, I had a taste of what the lifestyle really entails, and I’m not sure I like it. Oh don’t get me wrong, I love writing my parodies! But it’s partying like a rock star that doesn’t agree with me. You see last Thursday I visited my […]
After visiting Vienna, Asa’s World Tour of Maine next rolled into nearby Belgrade. First settled in 1774, it was incorporated as Belgrade in 1796, named after the largest city in Serbia, and one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in Europe and the world. However, exactly why that name was chosen for this Maine town remains a mystery […]
As Billy Joel once sang, “When will you realize Vienna waits for you?” Well wait no longer! This week’s stop on Asa’s World Tour of Maine takes us to Vienna! Settled in 1786, and incorporated in 1802, Vienna, Maine is named for the capital of Austria. Why that name was chosen by Daniel Morrill, who […]
Well once again Daylight Saving Time has come to an end, leaving dogs across the country in a state of confusion. We may have gained an hour by turning the clocks back, but our meals are now served late. Why do humans insist on changing dinnertime? Don’t they know that Golden Retrievers run on Golden […]
Fun Fact: Chances are within 100 miles of where you are now, there has been a Bigfoot sighting. Or at least that’s what a show we watched during vacation claimed. So it wasn’t a surprise while hiking in the remote woods in Danforth, Maine, that Chuck Billy’s thoughts turned towards this shy and elusive creature. […]
Asa’s World Tour of Maine has finally reached the top, or at least very close to it! Traveling the farthest northeast we’ve ever gone before to the “Crown of Maine,” we visited Orient! Located in Maine’s northern most county of Aroostook, Orient was incorporated on April 19, 1856. As for the reasoning behind the name, […]
Yesterday on Asa’s World Tour of Maine, we took you to Mexico and Byron. While researching that area, I saw on the map that Berlin, Maine was nearby. However, with precious travel time ticking, rather than investigate further, I made the game day decision to find that town once we were in the vicinity. How […]
As any rock star will tell you, a stop in Mexico is a must. So we headed northwest on Asa’s World Tour of Maine to Mexico! Gateway to the western mountains, Mexico, Maine was first part of “Township Number 1” in 1789. However, by 1818 Mexico was incorporated as its own independent town. The name […]
Asa here. I have to admit, I was really disappointed that I didn’t get to meet Dee Snider of Twisted Sister when he came to Maine last weekend. Because it was Dee who inspired me to become a rock star! The very first parody I ever wrote was to Twisted Sister’s paw pounding arena anthem, […]
