Can you make Bijou a world famous dog? (Expired)

$8.00
Bijou is John Willey's pug. She was nearly dubbed "Whiskey drinking good times" at birth, but John was too inebriated when she was purchased to recall her full name, so instead she goes by Bijou, French for Jewel. Lame. She was born in New Jersey and sold by an American flag bandana wearing biker to John in 2003. Although she's allegedly a pure-bred (in-bred?) Pug, no papers exist to confirm or deny this claim. Bijou spent the first several months of her life living in a shopping cart (literally) in the Princeton ghetto. She currently resides in Portland, Oregon where she enjoys howling, licking John's toes, and sniffing John's farts.

The challenge:
1) Come up with creative photos of John Willey and Bijou in compromising situations or as a historical record of Bijou's life. No imitation pugs accepted, although photoshop is encouraged. If Bijou becomes famous as a result of your photo, you are the winner! Else, the best photo will be selected by the end of the summer 2007.

I don't know how to do video-editing, but this clip of this Bijou-lookalike provides valuable raw material for all submissions.

Here's another photo for people to work with...
Sorry it's so small. If people send John belligerent emails, maybe he'll post something so we have more to work with...

Here's one example of the kind of thing I had in mind... of course, I only have Paint on my computer... and if someone else can figure out a better way to make Bijou famous... that's even better... In fact, if someone can make it so that her photo makes it onto the T.V. news... $10.

ideas, pictures and videos are all appreciated. I was kind of hoping that people might recreate scenes from Bijou's life if you're not able to actually convince John to do something useful himself...

Ok, now I'm confused. I thought we were just brainstorming. Are we supposed to come up with an idea AND get pictures/videos?

I want to see a picture of John and Bijou dressed up as Dorothy and Toto. Bijou needs to be in a basket and John needs to be wearing ruby red slippers.

So, is this just the idea brainstorm? And then the winner will be turned into a real challenge for John and Bijou to perform together?

I'd give David Kaplan a dollar if he can find that video of Bijou sitting on Tim's belly.

Heck, I'd give John a dollar just for posting a video of Bijou licking his feet and making Bijou noises.

I had this vision of a video:
- Bijou dressed in the same clothes as John (jeans, t-shirt, possibly a wig)
- The jingle from the old 'My Buddy' commercials
- John and Bijou frolicking in various playgrounds and parks

At the end of the video, John sings, 'My buddy and me!' and Bijou howls.

I would pay to see a picture of John lighting Bijou's farts instead of his own.
