Video book trailers starring a dog?

One of Humphrey's favorite authors these days is Gary Shteyngart. He still giggles about Vlad's adventures in The Russian Debutante's Handbook.

Recently, he came across a couple of video trailers created by the author and featuring one of his students (Academy Award nominated actor James Franco, who's also a PhD student at Columbia) and his close, personal friend, Paul Giamatti. Humphrey was delighted to see Felix the Dog in them as well. They're definitely worth a view, especially for those who enjoy satire:

Humphrey hopes that someday, he can star in his own book trailer.

Dogs at Work...anybody hiring?

Humphrey goes to work.

A group of Virginia Commonwealth University researchers headed by Randolph Barker (is that really his name?) confirmed what Humphrey already knew - that dogs in the workplace contribute to lower stress and higher productivity. The study's results reported in the NY Daily News suggest that Ben & Jerry's, Amazon and a host of other employers who allow employees to bring their dogs to work are on to something positive.

Only two questions remain in Humphrey's mind: what's the salary and when can he start?
