Oh cool! Is that right outside your place?

15336. arkymalarky - 6/4/2005 4:28:46 PM

Good news on your brother, Thoughtful.

Boycott U-haul

Just spent 2 1/2 hours on hold this morning trying to find out the status on a truck I reserved last week so that I could move this weekend (in-town)... only to find out they will not honor the reservation unless I drive 50 miles to get the truck.

Bah... they didn't charge me the $50 cancellation fee, but there is a $5 fee they won't refund. $5 for nothing but 2 1/2 hours of wasted time... and not enough time to rent from somewhere else (have a wedding to go to this afternoon).

Never again... and I invite you to tell your friends the same.

Luckily I have friends with vans, and we can handle it in a couple of trips, but it's always nice to do it in one hop.

Thanks Arky.

Ronski, I can hardly BEAR such pictures! It's a real honey of a shot. Why it gives me PAWS!

That bear looks exactly like our friends' Belgian Bouvier, only SoHo has longer hair.

The view of Bruno is from our front deck.

Here is another, on the side of the house:

Scratching, after a meal of red ants:

A little rest:

15343. ronski - 6/4/2005 5:23:41 PM

Taking leave:

15344. judithathome - 6/4/2005 7:12:55 PM

SoHo weighs about 170 pounds...what do you think Bruno weighs?

15345. ronski - 6/4/2005 7:30:13 PM

300 lbs., maybe a little more.

UHaul is infamous for this.

15347. judithathome - 6/4/2005 8:09:45 PM

That's why everyone should move with professional and accredited moving companies. ;-)

15348. arkymalarky - 6/4/2005 11:17:53 PM

Haha!

A bear was captured near here and relocated last week because it was in a neighborhood, getting into garbage cans, etc.

15349. Magoseph - 6/6/2005 11:38:10 AM

Hello, everyone, did you have a nice weekend?

15350. alistairconnor - 6/6/2005 12:17:45 PM

Is the pope a catholic?

Does a bear...

Yes, I had a nice weekend.

15351. Magoseph - 6/6/2005 3:26:24 PM

Hey, Flexy, finish this quote for me; Does a bear... ?:

So now I know and as always I'm very surprised that I never heard that one before, but you, know, Ali, no one ever swears in my presence and the second verb is one of the forbidden words, that's how high-minded I am. Don’t laugh now…but Flexy actually spelled the word.

15352. Magoseph - 6/7/2005 5:55:05 PM

Hey, Arky, how is Mazie?

15353. arkymalarky - 6/7/2005 6:00:25 PM

Hey Mags. She's doing very well. We're really tickled with how easy she's been to keep, so far. I'm downloading the drivers I need to show pictures, so hopefully sometime today or tomorrow I can post some pictures of her and her setup. I had to order the software in the mail because Mose lost the cd that came with her camera, and it's the one I'm using. It came yesterday.

Her outside kennel should be delivered sometime this week. She will be mostly a house dog, but when she goes out she'll stay out there instead of loose in the yard, like Chili and Diva did.

15354. Magoseph - 6/7/2005 8:01:46 PM

So, thoughtful, what is the latest on your brother and his wife? Have they decided on a new mode of life yet? Will they ever see the light? I can’t help thinking about my brother-in-law who died last August. Although he had had a heart attack, a stent in his carotid, a kidney out of commission, he still ate pretty much as he always did.
