Shit. That was back when I ran 3 miles a day outside. You see how white I am now -
Time for another ‘my dog is awesome’ thread

I've been hesitant to post this, but since many of you have posted about your dogs crossing the rainbow bridge, I thought I would share. This is Rose. I never really loved dogs before her. I mean I liked them and all, but not like close. My ex was a vet tech at the time and the week after the VY 4th and five, she got to work and someone had tied this dog to the handicap sign in front of her work. It was raining and in the 40s. Dog barely made it She called to ask if it was okay to bring him home for a night so she could keep an eye on her. Fine. Whatever just make sure it doesn't piss and shit everywhere They damn thing wound up falling asleep on my lap. The next morning I'm at the kitchen table drinking coffee and answering emails..and the mutt falls asleep on my feet Ex " I'm leaving. Help me out the dog in the crate." Me : no Anyway. Her daughter called me a few months ago. I hadn't talked to her in probably 10 years. She found Rose's collar and ashes and brought them over to me. I definitely had to wait until everyone was asleep before I opened the bag with the stuff inside. -

I don't know if it's still true, but I seem to remember FedEx routed most of its packages through memphis. So even if I shipped a box from Plano to Arlington it usually went to memphis first. Even it was like an overnight or 2 day package.

My wife is similar. She gets nervous spending money. When we moved into our house a couple of weeks before we got married. She called to ask if she could buy a toothbrush holder In my mind, I'm thinking she must be wanting to by like a nice bathroom set . Like stainless steel toothbrush holder/soap dispenser/kleenex holder. Nope. It was literally a $2.99 plastic one from target

Yeah I can honestly say I've never been in the mood for McDonald's when drunk. It was either Taco Bell or Jack Box in terms of fast food. Whataburger as well. Jack in the box tacos or waffle House smothered hash browns.

Trivial things that please the ever living shit out of you

I'll also add. When we needed to get our AC replaced I bought a window unit for the living room. After we replaced the AC I left it installed since it's kinda behind the couch so not really an eye sore Figured out the air flow so that if I have one of the couches seats reclined and the window unit on, it hits me right in the face all night. -

100% agreeed. My wife an I are on different sleep schedules. She typically gets up before 5 AM, and get up around 7:30 or later. Also, she likes the bedroom much hotter than I. So most of the time, I'll just fall asleep on the living room couch that's only a few feet from the patio door. Couple of years ago, wife wakes me up to see if I'm okay. And I'm dead ass asleep and tell I'm great best sleep I've gotten in awhile. She was like "Good. Because you left the patio door open, and now there is actual snow in the god damn living room for you to clean up." It snowed like 2" and I didn't even notice. It was glorious -
I'm on this side of the argument. When we are in my 4 door car, it doesn't really matter. But in my work van, it's a complete blind spot backing out in some cases, especially parking garages. I don't even like backing it out of my driveway and I'm on a slight hill so I have a very good view of street traffic.

You don't want to use the flamingos yet You grind down their oil infrastructure. You make them use whatever supplies and equipment they have left. While stockpiling flamingos. Then you wait until December and hit everything left hard right before the coldest part of the year in Moscow. That's how you create a massive shortfall in heating and electricity in Moscow and st Petersburg rather than it being spread out to the "poor" parts of russia

South Korea be like Wait you want to pay us for oil so you can ship north Korean soldiers to the front lines where they will die from drones with chips and parts we made that Ukraine and EU buy from us????

Turning Point in my opinions: Logistics win Wars Military Knowledge : As Russia looses officers and NCO's, they are being replaced by even more sycophantic military leaders. Virtually every dictators downfall in a major war was because the Dictator chases the glamor rather than the actual victory. Compare that to Ukraine, as they replace military leaders, they are being trained heavily in the logistical side of warfare. Civilian Knowledge : Russia successfully exported its most intelligent civilians at the beginning of the war. And then sent their replacements to the front lines to die. Ukraine has imported intelligence. You can tell by their sophistication of drone and aerial warfare. Logistics win Wars. One country is is using it's civilian and military knowledge to attack refineries, factories, and transportation hubs. The other is attacking apartments.
