Which one is he?

He's the tall guy in the white shirt.
I wasn't supposed to have my phone out and a teacher was right behind me so it's pretty bad.
If I can get the selfie I'll put it on here because the quality is way better and you can see his huge height

I am a little worried about this dog flu, there are some cases in Minnesota which isn't that far from my part of Wisconsin. I don't want my little pups to catch it. But then again they come into contact with many other dogs.

I agree. And the double dose of the vaccine they are saying isn't effective for this version of the flu at best it might and a big might keep the virus from killing them. The virus is heavy into Chicago. They say it will also strike cats too. I'd really be worried if I had a cat that wandered outdoors. Right now I'm not even big on taking my Pup to the vets office with all this going on. Hoping with the nicer weather maybe the virus will die down.

Its my imagination or your cut and paste is.. sort of missing text?

also you said "THE" in the last part.
I feel something is missing!

Nope that is the whole story. Where 'the' came from, gots me.

She bit through the main power cord for the Atari so the game he was playing was over. She was a Tuffy Dog and her head when she was shocked bounced up the coffee table from underneath, she lived on for another 13 years. She was a handful as a Pup but she really mellowed into a great family dog. When I had kids I worried about her being jealous, instead she took on the role of back up Mom. Where they went she went. At night she use to sleep in our room after kids she slept in the hall at night between three bedroom doors. Still miss her.

Oh good, I thought the dog had died after chewing on the cord. She sounds like she was an amazing dog and second mom to your kids! Dogs love their humans so much.

View attachment 90061 Frank Kaminsky was at my school for his jersey retiring today.
Got the pleasure to meet him and take picture with/of him (only putting the one of him cause my selfie with him isn't currently on the device I'm uploading from). He's actually a really great dude. Great to see him succeed

I giggle every time I hear someone talking about Frank Kaminsky, as I used to work with another teacher that had the same last name. So I always picture the guy I knew (who was a tall, muscular guy with a blonde buzz cut) wearing a suit and tie playing basketball.

I hope so too, I don't want to stop taking my pup for a walk. She enjoys them so much (and she definitely needs them).

Kind of looks like your husband is the basketball player there.

I'm not a big Star Wars fan (I enjoy the movies) but the one released today was good! I actually got a little chill and goosebumps watching it.

Better than the Superman tease of the trailer I saw yesterday.

Yep, life without walks isn't life for Walter. Those days the weather doesn't permit are long days in the house with Walter.

Funny how Pups pick out who their Person is though. Walter is a nine year old Pup. He picked out my DS as his People of Choice the day we got him. My son was going to college in Kenosha and the breeder was in Kenosha so we picked him up along the way to go choose a Pup. He took him up into the dorm while we waited downstairs for him to return the Pup and we were off for the drive home. He sat on my DD lap the whole ride. Still when DS came home from College the Pup never left his side, when DS is home he still sleeps in DS room. My kid left initially for a year to go to Florid, went a second time for a year and went back again, still that Pup is his Pup. Go Figure.

I am Walter's Alpha. He listens to me and ignores the rest. If I give him the look he sits and behaves. I walk him, feed him, clean him, he knows I'm the caregiver. We all just know we all take a back seat to his attachment to my DS.

I . eeeh.. I am completely confused now...

If it helps, it is lunch afternoon, dinner evening meal.

Condensed tomato soup needs milk or water. I have to use water, using milk gives me heartburn.

I tried tomato soup with water, couldn't do it. I have the same issue with with milk but I found this and it works for me. I love cream of tomato soup and a nice grilled cheese sandwich with some Ruffle Potato Chips.

I'm not a big Star Wars fan

Hahaaa...!
Sooo many reasons why that ain't gonna' happen here.
Among them, this stretch of the highway is in far west Austin, which is miles away from any other main highway that would make anything like that feasible. Not gonna' happen.

do you remember the times when people said "we're gonna do it even if we have to TNT our way to hell"?
like when they were building roads in Alaska or doing the old route 66?
They only say now "not cost feasible" or "too hard, too expensive".

That's because there is no way one can be considered cool if they like that song. It's a status thing to not like it. It does make for some neat jokes though. I love it when the Jungle Cruise Captain tells everyone to remember to bring their child with them otherwise, if left behind, they will be taken to Small World where they will have their shoes nailed to the floor and be forced to sing it all day.

Are you saying I'm not cool?

Spoiler

Ok, I admit it's true.

Walt is really stylin' in that jacket. I'd wear it.

I love the picture of him with Pinocchio. What a classic picture.

First you want my chocolate chip cookies, now someone else's paprika chicken! Maybe we need to have a virtual potluck! That paprika chicken did look good! It was just baked chicken and baked potato for me tonight.

If anyone wants to feed me, I'll wash the dishes!

Since the challenges to building a wider highway are too extreme, may I suggest a different mode of transportation for you to get to work in the morning. You can drive the car below, but once you see that the traffic is getting heavy, you can open out the "wings" and just fly over the traffic to work!
