Just be glad I didn't pull out the digital camera! I contemplated it but decided not. I did pull out the foil...

...it's back in the cabinet but I'm still chuckling!

This is off topic, but I have a question.

I was driving home on the freeway today after taking my Seeing Eye dog to the vet, and something occurred to me. He is allowed in restaurants, theaters, ball games, stores, the indoor pistol range, strip clubs, and everyplace else I need to go.

Would he qualify as a second "person" in the vehicle so I can drive in the carpool lane?

Delmonico · February 13, 2006, 03:42:44 PM

I'd think so.

litl rooster · February 13, 2006, 03:50:36 PM

Forty, On Holidays Saturdays and Sundays fer sure, but only with licenced driver on board

Before you take plane trip you should ask the pilots to take him for a walk around the Tarmac

(I stole that one from Ray Charles)

"And the Judge came in and sat down and his seeing eye dog he sat down."

Ok we we're talkin' 'bout turkeys last week, thought it might fit in.

Of course Forty, and thats why they put braile symbols on the drive thru automatic tellers!

And in some towns they even have braile on the roads. Some folks call them City... well, nevermind.

Delmonico · February 13, 2006, 07:43:38 PM

Thats why some place put rumble strips near a dangerous intersection, to wake up blind drivers. My wife tolt me that one, if ya don't belive it you can tell her.

Trinity · February 13, 2006, 08:59:42 PM

Did she happen to tell you that after you ran over the strips?

Anything in here is off topic.

Something just occurred to me, Forty is driving on the freeway with a seeing eye dog!

Shouldn't the seeing eye dog be driving?

1. dog can't reach pedals and see over the dash at the same time.

2. dog is under age for a license.

3. dog can't manage keys because he doesn't have thumbs.

How much under age Forty, should the dog legally be in a car seat?

Forty Rod · February 14, 2006, 01:47:12 PM

Naw, he's 9 1/2. He's old eough and tall enough to dodge the car seat but too sort an' too young for a license.

Can't register him to vote, either, but that's okay. He's a true welfare dog.

By my calculations, he's 2 years older than you and a year younger than Lornen Greene... By the way would he like to go Texas and do some Quail Hunting, maybe do some guiding?

Forty Rod · February 14, 2006, 04:47:04 PM

He don't hunt worth a hoot. Wants to go make friends with every dang thing. Sorta like that Disney bull that laid around sniffin' flowers. I told you, he's a welfare dog....liberal, flower-child, "I- love-you-so-you-have-to-love-me", "why-isn't-my-supper-ready-yet", "whaddayoumean-FETCH?", sorta guy. If he could vote he be a supporter for any candidate that'd pet him and rub his ears.

Oh a Liberal....probably anti Gun too

Yep it's still on topic

Forty Rod · February 14, 2006, 05:56:58 PM

He's funny about guns.

He doesn't mind going to the range and will lay right down and go to sleep, but he sure doesn't like to hear gunfire, fireworks, or loud noises around home.

He lays on a couch right alongside my house gun and gives it no attention whatsoever. He doesn't like the smell of my guns after they've had BP run through them, but the smaell of Hoppe's #9 is like dognip to him once I've cleaned them.
