other dog

I was about 23-24 here.

Since we're going down that road...I was around 30 here.

I'm fatter and grayer than you are!

I found homeless Bob.

here's professor Bob in action. I have a picture of homeless Bob too, haven't seen it yet.

here's Bob the executive.

I was looking for a picture a few minutes ago and ran across this one of professor Bob, an oldie but goody. I'll never find the one i'm looking for anyway, because i'm looking for it. I should have organized them better- which would mean having them organized at all. It's the same as dumping about 20,000 pictures of various subjects into a cardboard box then trying to find the picture of the Sleepy's Mattress truck on the Annapolis Bay Bridge.

I hope that's not at Rosie O'donell's house- no, wait, on the other hand...

Thank you.

Well, I did see this one- she said "would you come with me please?'' So I said ''duh...ok". So I followed her into an examining room that actually looked just like the restroom. Then she said "could you help me with this?" So I said "what?..can't you tie a knot?..what do I look like, a knotical expert or something?" So she said ''fine then, i'll just do it myself''. Then this nurse came in and said ''I can help". So I said "great, I didn't have time anyway, i'm outa here!''. Apparently she wasn't a knotical expert either, it took them about 15 minutes to get everything tied up, and they both came out grinning like they had made some major accomplishment. I really could have tied that string in 15 seconds.

reminds me of that new sweater he was wearing the other day...

I went to Danville with Zina from Gladys to her dr's appointment this morning. I saw all these trucks lined up at J & J Truck Sales, which is right next door to Atkinson Truck Sales. Between them they have about 8 million trucks for sale, I used to see dump trucks with their mud flaps all over the country. But this green dump one really caught my eye, I really like that color. That's a crappy picture too, but not too bad for a drive-by shot taken with a phone I guess. The dr's office we were at was actually in a building that used to be part of the famous Dan River Mills. It was a 4 story building and on the first floor there was a room that was a small museum I guess, it had displays and pictures of the tobacco warehouses that used to be there, the textile mills... and this display about the wreck of the old 97. Very interesting. There's a tank museum in Danville too, in the old Disston Tool plant. We haven't been there yet, but it's on our bucket list.

There's a lot of things I don't like on the Zinamobile. I have the '87 F150 and a 2016 Impala. The Impala's a great car, I love it. But Zina traded her Accord for a new CR-V last year, and it takes some getting used to. If you get out and take 2 steps away the doors lock automatically, kind of a pain in the ass if you're carrying groceries in or something. It also has the lane departure thing, and if you change lanes without using the turn signal the steering wheel starts shaking, and it tries to take control and bring you back into the lane you're trying to get out of. I can reach in my car and start it with the key, hers won't start unless your foot's on the brake when you push the button. There's a lot more stuff I don't even know about it, and like I told Mark, vision386 here, the other night, the dang owners manual looks like the phone book, it's about 600 pages.

That reminds me of hauling pulp wood to Westvaco in Covington...sort of. I was running with Running Bear one day, and he said he bought an exercise bike at a yard sale. The guy that was selling it said he used it for a while, got tired of it, and after a while he just used it to hang his clothes on. So Running Bear said he bought it, used it for a while, got tired of it, then just used it to hang his clothes on. So I said "I could use an exercise bike". So I bought it, used it a while, got tired of it, then just used it to hang clothes on. 🤣 True story.

OK, thanks Bob.

I was just doing some research on the computer- what?..no, really. Anyhow, I decided to take a look at BMT, but it wouldn't let me sign in for some reason. So, I to tried to change my name from other dog to "guest", but I couldn't sign in as a guest either. So I tried my phone, and here I am. Still don't know what's going on with the computer.

Welp, the leftover chicken looks like this now- it's good too!

I had a welder shock me one time, almost 50 years ago. Not a small shock, a "knocked me down and gave me a nose bleed shock". I was working in a garage and a guy brought a lawn mower in to be fixed. The frame was cracked around all the bolt holes where the motor bolted to it. I had some little small rods (stick welder in those days of course) and I welded up all the cracks, ground the area around the holes flat, then laid flat washers over the holes and was welding them in place. I put a new rod in and as soon as I touched the electrode holder with the rod it knocked me flat on my ass. Don't know why, it hadn't done it before, never did it again. I got up off the floor, found my glasses, and it did cause my nose to bleed, but that was the only injury.

So, aren't you going to tell us what the smart ass uncalled for comment was?

The two white breastesess- can you say that?..that might be racist and offensive to some people, because everything seems to offend somebody- anyhow, the two lighter colored- can you say colored?..never mind, I'm getting sidetracked here. They were marinated in a garlic and herb marinade, the wings, drum sticks, and thighs were marinated in teriyaki marinade, and the leg quarters and breast and wing pieces were just coated with the usual top secret rub. I already ate one of the teriyaki thighs and a wing, just to make sure it was fit for human consumption. It was delicious.

Well, I guess we'll be having chicken for dinner every day for a while. I bought a whole chicken that I wanted to spatchcock just to try it, because I'd never cooked one like that before. And Zina had taken some chicken out of the freezer to make room for something else, so I said "no big deal- I'll just cook all of it". The last chicken I cooked was so good I had chicken for dinner three days in a row. So y'all come on over and get some chicken, we've got plenty. I never did try that spatchcock thing, I cut it in half first, then I separated the leg quarters from the breastesess and wings. I just hope I can duplicate the results from the last time.

There's a place in VA. that might be worth looking into. I don't know a thing about them, but a lifetime guarantee is a lifetime guarantee.
