Along with other things, keep us posted on the progress with Taz. It's so cool the perfect vet is near your USian home.

Just make sure that they'll leave when you come back, not like the people in our rental house who haven't paid rent in 4 months. And whom we can't kick out because LA County has a moratorium on evictions until the end of the year. I think that it's time to pay a team of rent-a-renters to move in and be a nuisance until the non-payers leave. I know that they actually have the money.
Fortunately he's someone we already knew.

Today's exchange in a shop.
"Happy Easter. Remember Jesus died for your sins!"
"Yes, happy Nail Up Saviour Weekend. Jesus gave up his long weekend for your sins!"
"You're an atheist!"
"Does it show?"
"Only an atheist would blaspheme like that!"
"Actually, Christians blaspheme every time they pray to Caucasian Jesus!"
"Huh!"
*Storms away*
"Winner, by TKO!"

Outstanding! I vigorously applaud you. I wish I could give you two thumbs up, but only have one and a half. : )

When I worked at the gun shop - they got a great deal on Turk made 28 gauge side by sides and shells. I thought of getting one - and now that the rabbit population is way up - wish I did...
I had a thought. We have a flood control diversion/irrigation project that runs for 40+ miles. Whistle pigs love to burrow on the banks. They're bigger and slower. That might be an excellent protein source that the dogs haven't encountered before. I think I'd have a better shot to kill ratio.

Discovered that my ex still keeps a pucture of me in his wallet.
When he encounters trouble in his life, he takes it out and looks at it.
It reminds him that if he can survive a relationship with that crazy bitch, he can survive anything.
I'm so inspirational.
