I need some help finding a tough dog toy. My Boston Terrier will instantly destroy anything that I give him, unless he doesn't like it. Then he just ignores it. I got him a classic Kong but unless it has peanut butter in it, he's not too keen about it. I got him a big donut (made of a tough-looking corduroy material), he tore it open. Got him a Kong ring, he tore off the covering (tennis ball kind of felt). Tonight, I got him a Kong bone that has crackling plastic inside of it, like an empty plastic water bottle. He tore off the top of it.
I got him a water buffalo horn once and he likes it, but the smell is so horrible, my wife can't stand it. I'm at a loss.

Apparently, there is no shortage of fire fighters so their pay scale must be acceptable.
No shit. I always hear that crap about "they do a job that no one else wants to do!". I guess that explains why there's a line down the fucking block when they are accepting applications for the academy. I'm not saying it's a gravy job but let's not act like they're hurting for applicants. People know about the benefits. I worked a shit job at the county jail, that job sucked ass and the pay was horrible. But we always had people waiting for an opening, they wanted the county insurance, pension and the pipe dream of being on patrol one day.

They'd still own his rights, so he could go back to Duke in a play to try and leverage New Orleans to trade his rights, but it's highly unlikely it'd work or he'd do this. He's never even been to New Orleans, he may love it.
He hasn't been drafted, yet. The deadline to pull out is May 29th. If he pulls out, nothing the Pels can do.
EDIT: Just so we're clear, I don't think he'll do this and don't think he should. I'd take the money.

Zion hasn't signed with an agent yet, so the new scuttlebutt is that he may say "Fuck you" to the Pels and go back to Duke for another year.

2 years ago, I only had one car for my twins, which was a 2002 Accord. Then my uncle died and my dad bought his 2012 Fusion. He wanted my kids to each have a car to drive, so he gave it to me. I told the kids, first one to get a job gets first pick of the cars. One kid was slightly pissed, I'll let you guess which one.

People that can't figure out how to use "bias" and "biased" in a sentence. They can DIAF with the "dominate" and "dominant" fuckers.
The only good thing about it is that I now know who has read a book or two and who has not.

Curious as to why the USAF over the Marines. I ask that having a friend who served in the Air Force as an intelligence officer and he parlayed that into pretty damn good work in the corporate world. But I have personal affection toward the Marines (see above post).
Dad knew the Air Force, front to back. I (now) trust his opinion on it. My USMC career ended very, very early due to injury and I feel like I could have avoided that in the Air Force. But 19 year old fucksticks don't think that way, all they know is the Marines are tough and badass, Airmen are dorks and losers. Who's the loser now? Spoiler: It's me.
-
I would have applied myself in HS and gone to college. Not going to college is probably my biggest regrets. I joined the Marine Corps instead and I wouldn't do that again, I'd go into the USAF like my dad suggested. He was in year 25 of his Air Force career and strongly recommended that I go that route instead of the Marines. I figured I knew better than he and made a huge mistake. He never said "I told you so", and I'll always love him for that.
No one has said this so far, but I'd also run far away from my ex-wife and ensure that I'd never meet her.

As much as I have felt "meh" about this season, this episode brought it tonight. Not too fond of Super-Arya, narrowly escaping certain death, time and again, but the rest was good.

Translation: Women (regardless of race) that break rules all the time are tired of getting called out.
Now, I would never give 2 seconds of thought about what this person was doing. I am aware of my surroundings but I mind my own business. Her eating wouldn't affect me at all, but rules are rules. Twitter ho still should have kept quiet.

It looks like they really nailed the cast. Jessica Chastain as Bev is perfect IMO. I was underwhelmed by part one, this trailer has me all in right now.

New midsize from Dodge is coming.
I had a 1987 Dodge Dakota and it was a pretty good truck. Much nicer than a 2005 Dodge Dakota that my father bought new. I really liked the Rams that I saw at the auto show this year, but I have stuck by Ford since 1994.
I'm right there with you, I really like the newer Rams but I can't force myself to get away from Ford. I asked my best friend about this Ram I liked, he told me (in a nice way) that I would be a moron if I bought it. Even my wife dislikes them, God knows why. I love my truck I just got but I'm very smitten with the new Ram.

Just about finished with DiY restoration of my 1992 BMW 318ic.. could use some touch ups and a suspension refresh but she still drives like a dream with the 5 speed manual gearboxxxx. Don't believe I have posted about it on new site.
I think this car is the inspiration for the expression "i'd rather drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow..."
Slow car fast, eh? I guess it's cool to talk about my '94 Miata in this thread now???

Colorado School of Mines?
Fuck. So much for my proofreading skills, I guess.

I wonder how soon before schools just go totally online? I have one of mine kids in online school and she prefers it.
It would kill the whole "learn to coexist with others" bit that we all grew up with, that's for sure. But I think the internet has already stunted the social growth of a lot of kids. They don't know how to deal with people in real life. Much easier to just block people you don't like. Not sure how to put the toothpaste back in the tube, though, the internet is here to stay.

Why would a cop (especially one who appears to have "I'm a badass cop" syndrome) bother with making a noise complaint? I would assume she'd just go to his apartment, in uniform, and tell him to keep it down. She doesn't even have to tell him she lives there. How would he know? If a cop comes to my door about the noise, I wouldn't assume that he/she must live here, too.
And I'm in club "never notice the doormat". Even if I did, I'd probably assume it got kicked down the hall from next door by some kids or something.

She ran Waco St, hoe skirt riding up and showing everything to the world. She flagged down a car hysterically and jumped in.Looks like running wasn't something she was familiar with.

When a tv or radio has a volume setting with numbers, I have to go up or down by 5s.
I always stop on a number that corresponds with a uniform number for one of my favorite players, or I avoid a number for someone I hate. My TV is usually on 20 (Barry Sanders, Mike Schmidt). If I don't have a certain number in mind, I always stop on a 5 or 0. So when I watch GoT, it's on 30 so I can drown out my wife and the dogs.
I microwave things that way as well. Fuck 75 seconds for this breakfast biscuit, I'm going 80 for Jerry Rice.

Brienne having a relationship with Jaime was a terrible storyline. It felt like a 1980's high school RomCom.
Brienne is pursued by social outcast Tormund but gains the attention of the former high school prom king Jaime Lannister. Who will she choose? The former prom king of course and for a fleeting moment she had it all.
I laughed at her crying, Tormund would have waged war for Brienne, she choose poorly.
To be fair, she didn't ask him to come to her room. If Tormund had the balls to just walk up there, maybe he's climbing that mountain instead of Jamie.

I basically have a math major and my career is built around math. I ended up with two daughters. I hate nights when they have math homework, because they are really smart kids except for that one specific area. Between math and boys, high school is going to be quite an enjoyable time in my life I feel.
My ex-wife has a math degree. Are you a raving lunatic as well?

This is funny as fuck but am I the only one that was bummed out by this scene? Poor Brienne finally found a man and he gives her the pump and dump. I felt bad for her.

I now want that shirt more than anything on earth.
Me too. I got a tad choked up, thinking about my mom and how lucky I was to have great parents.

I can still remember being outside a K-Mart in 1978 at this kiosk and my mom getting me a sweet ringer t-shirt with an iron-on that said "Chewie" in script and had a pic of his head. I wore that thing to threads. RIP to him. My mom too.
Edit: Holy fuck, I decided to look online and see if I could find a pic of the iron on and I did.
