Until now IтАЩve resisted making any comment about ScottтАЩs-dog-named-Holly, but now I feel I must. I feel HollyтАЩs personality deep down and would be 100% willing to lend my voice/sass/snark/sarcasm to the project.

I often think of this anecdote that Jim Carrey once shared, about working with Tommy Lee Jones on "Batman Forever" and finding out that Jones hated him:

"тАЬHe started shaking and he got up, he must have been in mid-kill-me fantasy or something like that. He went to hug me and he said, тАШI hate you. I really donтАЩt like you.тАШ And I said, тАШGee, man, whatтАЩs the problem?тАЩ And I pulled up a chair, which probably wasnтАЩt smart, and he said, тАШI cannot sanction your buffoonery.'тАЭ"

This is exactly the dynamic between my dogs, with Holly as Tommy Lee Jones and Olaf as Jim Carrey.
