  1. We had Doberman growing up. Ears cropped. Tail docked. NYS is crazy now.
  2. What's with people naming their animals all these cutesy people names. Always wondered. Do the ears need to be cropped when young? Like a Doberman? Are they born floppy?
  3. Goldens are nice! My brother in law's dog would watch hunting shows on cable TV! I shityounot!
  4. Did you ever notice how dogs resemble the looks of their owners. I think if you post a pic, should have the owner too: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/canine-corner/201308/do-dogs-look-their-owners I use Photo Compress App. Get it under 200kb site limit. Oh... I saw you. You don't look like: "the most beautiful and sweetest Golden you have ever seen on a commercial, or in person." ;-)
  5. That's more a Hispanic greeting, right? Peck on cheek. Ends up more like hug and cheek to cheek. My sister inlaw is from Mexico and everybody in their family greet that way. I thought it was weird at first 23 years ago when we first met her... But now everybody is doing it, even when she's not around... it's normal. LoL... No....I didn't kiss my Dad. I gave him an Anglo homophobic (just being funny) handshake. LoL... Mods... Can we turn this into a CPR thread... I am getting weirded out. LoL...
  6. RIP... But, what if? Spartacus had a Piper Cub???
  7. Sorry to hear... All my thoughts and prayers.
  8. It's not usually everybody... Even at +11,000' or so. If we were all born in Buffalo, that's around +500-600' msl. It is a big jump Back in Scouts, our Philmont crew, we had one Scout feeling the effects of high country. Staying hydrated is key. Eating well too. We got back down below 10,000 and he squared it away. Which was a good thing... Would have sucked to hike him out. This was in mid-1980s before modern communicative technology.
  9. Jaguar... That's a Brit automobile anyway. Perfect fit.
  10. Yeah. Alta. Deer Valley. And Mad River Glen back East are Ski Only....I believe. MRG says it's because of the vintage single chairs. Or, so I recall... But don't quote me on it.
  11. I never skied Utah. Colorado, Wyoming, Idaho, Cali, BC, Alberta... All round Utah, but never Utah... I think I will push for that next!
  12. Sure... You would have thought this was brilliant had it worked. Like Daboll and Shanny passing when they should have ran! ?
  13. Yes. Years ago. Don't forget A-Basin.
  14. World War Eleven! Was that on Melmac? Holy crap... My nerves would be shot too! Your father is a BRAVE Alien Life Form! J/K WWII (Roman Numerals)... /wink_wink
  15. He is an uncompassionate douchebag... But I send my compassion, what little I have. It's hard... But it's there.
  16. Yes.. But it also deters face touching... Creates a reminder.
  17. Thanks for the safety tip! A shed you can run away from. Driving 65mph (legal of course, I never cheat: @Mike in Horseheads) You got nowhere to go when you hit the windshield wipers! Let me clarify: "Put a little ammonia in your windshield wiper fluid", a co-worker told me. "It will never freeze." I guess I put little too much, I almost gassed myself to death. Put on the squirters and defroster... BOOM! It was like I was driving through Bhopal, India, 1984... /smh
  18. Damn Toyotas... Biggest car company in world, everybody loves them... Even the critters!
  19. True. Look who you are using as your baseline to define the word judgement: The Ugly American. Let it ruin my judgement.
  20. One of a kind look!!!! LoL... Eyes... All the way!
  21. Interesting... For vehicles. But older stuff didn't have as much wiring. Here... Residential is EMT conduit (which acts as mechanical ground). Whips (I wanna say NEC code is >4'?) have to be BX armor... Metal boxes, etc... No Romex. Rodents can't chew through metal... And if wires go bad, can be re-pulled. Now... In Indiana , Romex is okay... Same with pex plumbing... Here, it has to be copper plumbing. Our wiring at work isn't thermoplastic... 480v... Thick rubber and cloth. Big cables not in conduit. Built in 1960. It's starting to go... Some under rodent attack... Will get a hell of an arc if they get through
  22. And the worst part of that is troubleshooting that clustermess of a problem... Hopefully, the OBDII will throw a fault code!
