If by "serious" you're referring to the last Jake pic (Batdawg), he's only being serious in a simple-minded way. He's big-time into lights, reflections, moving shadows, etc. He'll chase the beam of a flashlight or laser pointer more or less non-stop (til your arm gets tired). He runs across the lawn chasing the shadows of flying birds, barking like a crazy dog.

In keeping with this silliness, he's noted that shiny things sometimes create reflections that are fun to chase. I think in the Batdawg pic the camera, being metallic and, therefore, at least potentially reflective, got his undivided attention. THAT'S why he seems so focused. My technician at work has a cell phone which reflects sunlight nicely. Anytime she pulls it out, he follows her around waiting for some action.

He's kind of a funny dog.

Oh dogs, mine does that too (chase lasers). But i was referring to the new batman movie:

I haven't had Bear in the Boxster, but when he rides in the IS, he gets to stay in a $20 nylon kennel from Target. He loves it, plus it keeps him (and his hair) contained.
You might be able to fit that in the front seat of a Boxster... keeps the dog low and if you were to get in a wreck, more safe than just laying on the seat (the kennel has seatbelt loops).

That sounds like a really good idea! but unfortunately after looking at the dimensions of the kennel I don't think Sammy will fit in it...
