HRH now hates the smell - she can be walking thru the car park/parking lot and smell someone smoking in a car from 30 feet away! A lot of my workmates smoke and now and then i still go outside with them - i no longer smoke myself, but there's nothing worse than a 'holier than thou' attitude i have experienced from former smokers.

2 vape now instead of smoking! Just because i answer their questions and fit their budgets to what they need. And they all see me walking around leaving contrails wherever i am!

I have 18 rather stale Marlboros on a table by my printer, and 2 cuban cigars given to me by a friend when he returned from holiday a year ago! HRH gave all hers away. I keep them to remind me not to be so bloody stupid anymore!

It's good that the Smurf gave up Cuban cigars... Tiparillo Mini Cigars are so much more feminine.

Car park... is that a grassy place where you take your car so it can romp and play with other cars? Do the trucks bully them and start fights?

Back from the puppy meeting and was highly impressed with the dog. Both parents are Australian Shepherd/Heeler 50/50 xbreed, didn't seem hyper at all but curious. Seller had an older sister to the pups there as well which had exactly the same temperament as the parents. The pup I chose is a male and the runt of the litter but hardly noticeable. He was sound asleep when I got there as 5/7 were so the pic I got of him was after I woke him from lala land. He'll be ready for pickup after seeing the vet on the 27th of May. At the moment he's just 5-1/2 weeks old. Has longer fur around the neck like his papa and shorter fur throughout the body. Really happy to get him, a real sweetie!! :)

Btw, you can see how well my RG/RM2 hides in my t-shirt pocket.

Good evening everyone hope yall had a good day :)

Norman I have what I consider to be a great set of dogs even if they a stupid ...... :) Simba has fear of new people but is very agressive until I tell him to back down Bailey is friendly until she sees danger but even then she stays back until she feels Simba is in danger or out numbered she will actually hide around the corner so as to not be seen but come out if need be. Both are quiet when needed but loud when needed as well. the only thing i want more is more brains. Simba has finally learned to give warning nargles with his teeth when danger is not immanent
Next dog will be more active and trainable like my last one

Congrats Norman. I hope your happy with him. I forgot to tell you. I think .....es make better guard dogs. They are more in tune to protect their family. Don't worry Simba is a boy and he does a good job. Had some bible thumpers last week. Told them I wasn't interested. I had Simba by the collar as he was in attack mode. After the second But But from them I told them he was hungry. They left quick an when they came back yesterday they had a meeting before descending on the neighbourhood and I could see the one from last week saying don't go to that house. (He probably said something about the devil lives there) :lol:

Thanks Darrel, I think the dog will do well and because the property is so secluded with thick hedges and concrete walls he'll hardly get to see peeps. If I close the front gate and open couple other gates around the yard he'll be able to go around the house but for the most part he'll be in the back and one side yard. The parents of the pup didn't make a sound when my son and I was there, hopefully because their well trained when the owners are around. But owners did say that they are very good watch dogs. Now, if the min pin comes I'll feel better :)

I know it's warm there but I hope you allow him lots of hous time too. Dogs are pack animals and if you allow it into your den it will be so much happier and also a better guard dog as it will wish to take care of its pack "you and family". Mine live in the house and Simba can sense peeps on the road never mind in the yard. Even when I had several acres he could do it. I'm a firm believer in dogs being in the house. Puttin in dog door soon so mine can come and go as they please.

Morning, afternoon, evening Peeps!!

Please stay safe all who are in harms way. I've been through +120mph winds (hurricane) and its nutting like a tornado. Our tornadoes here mostly form/stay off shore (water spouts) and heard of a small one once that lasted a couple of minutes which landed and damaged a few homes years ago. Been through several tornado watches (Missouri) but none materialized, lucky me.......had no idea what the sirens were for the first couple of times.:facepalm:

Anyone with comments on this dog. Australian Shepherd/Heeler. No experience with either of the xbreeds here.....lol, I'm getting too analytical.

They are working dogs...and need to feel useful. They need to run. The healers and shepherds I've been in contact with are very bonded with their owners and aren't overly friendly with anyone but. (my stepdaughter breeds heelers) I'm sure that's a trait that can be handled with good socialization, but I have no doubt it's a lot of work. They can be aggressive with strangers, and be on the look out for food aggression. They are not a laid back do nothing sort of dog. Good motivation for the human to get active and stay active. And very protective of their pack and their den, for sure.

NOOOOOO!!!!! If I go back to a 28 waist, I have to go shopping in boys wear again. My dad was a 28 and he saved big bucks wearing boys sizes, he even wore boy's large shirts (think they were size 20 or 18, something like that). Luckily I drink lotsa beer to keep my weight up. :)

My son told me today that he's only 260.....:facepalm:

You obviously haven't seen the price of kids clothing lately have you. Went to buy shoes for Gatlin. Used ones was $40-$60. I went to Walmart after I saw that.

Norman, you deserve that cute pooch thank you for sharing that beauty with us and yes I did notice the Reo in your shirt. You're one of my people, you don't need to prove you are a Reo-vet 2nd in commamd, in my book my hawaiian brother. Here is a map to help our reonauts identify hawaiian islandas all its glory.

Mahalo nui loa!
