How the heck did I bite my own tongue?
Its like it went on a suicide mission and jumped between my molars.

We had a large dairy equipment display at the Red Power Round-up in Columbia, MO, in 2008. One of the guys from Iowa brought this, it's got a small generator under the seat to run the calliope, and provided some heat for his wife when pulling it in parades. Idea was to run it every so often to get people coming through the building to check things out and he had a popcorn popper we gave away popcorn too.
The idea worked, til one of the vendors complained to the show organizers that we interrupted one of his sales. We shut it off for the rest of the show, and the other vendors had some not-so-nice words for him. Sales dropped right off at that point for everyone.

And you watched the whole ten minutes thinking that something different was going to happen, right? Go on, admit it, it's ok!

I post stuff like that just to give Bark nightmares.

Afternoon all.

Jake sure was happy to eat this morning after about 72 hours of NOT eating. I was too. The last 12 hours he WANTED to eat but couldn't due to the blood test this morning. I starved too and that pop tart sure tasted good! Now he's on metronidazole, an antibiotic to fight any infection that may be causing his gas. Blood work comes back tomorrow, hopefully we can get this straightened out so my buddy can be a dog again!

Wife and I had just been talking about that one.
Believe it or not, my Grandfather (he died in early 80's) used to crack us up by saying "Boots and Cats" in the same way.
I don't know why it was so entertaining.

Hopefully Jake will get to feeling better. You need someone to take care of you.

.985 back at you.

My too. If they spent less money on ads they might be able to save me money but I doubt it.

It is played so poorly that it does sound like Smoke on the water but I actually think it is Sunshine of Your Love by Cream.

Ding Ding Ding...we have a winner

Justwannabeme

good! now listen to the vet when he/she says NO PEOPLE FOOD. allergies can kill puppies. don't be a enabler. snicker snicker

chaikwa

You got that right.

Jake hasn't had ANY people food for better than 8 months. Only thing even close is boiled chicken and white rice, which the vet prescribed. Even when we'd give him a piece of something here or there, it was always something decent; lean steak, pork or non-fried chicken. That's how we learned he wasn't tolerant of anything with beef in it. Apparently it is too rich for him. But he never got junk like chips, donuts or anything like that. I eat it all first!

Justwannabeme

fer sure, he does eat better than you. dang cuter too when he walks, head held high, with his doggie box out of the eatery.......

I had to go higher level for the cat. is she gonna pick something better than mice? squirrel? is woodchuck like beef?

healthy fried chicken, fresh cucs with dressing, cole slaw, maters for supper.
should been a picnic.

Blackened salmon and grilled squash for supper Yum! A little out of focus but tasted great!

Chrisreyn

Is that instruction referring to Jake or Sasquatch/Scott??


Sloppy Joes made with ground venison tonight.. mmm-mmm good!

Cold has returned to KS, wind chill is minus 2F out right now.. think I solved the problem of the chickens water freezing tho,.. bought a heated dog bowl, tore the heating plate off of it and siliconed it to the bottom of the galvanized poultry waterer.. so far its working..

Got the pasture fertilized yesterday, 80 units of urea per acre and 7 tons of potassium over 35 acres of Brome.... hope we get some nice gentle spring rains in a few weeks..

Had a vet visit with our Border Collie yesterday, she's been off her feed since Greta passed. Vet says its depression, couple with age ( shes 14yrs old) and her teeth are about worn out, life expectancy for her breed is 12-15 yrs.... just what I needed to hear so soon after loosing the other one....but other than that, her cataracts and a tendency for her heart to stop and restart for no apparent reason( done that since she was 10, makes her faint), shes in good shape for the shape she's in..
No more dogs.........ever..........
