    Here's the kicker...


    Ive been cussing and raising hell at them dogs for nearly 3 years.
    They bark and bark and bark at me through a fence every time they are let out.
    I never, ever, never ever imagined that i would be the one to save their lives...

    I visited with them at the vet today and it was amazing.
    It seemed they knew that i had saved them.

    The bird loved me.
    He was all over the side of his cage.
    He was an obnoxious nut case before i entered the room he is in.
    He calmed down and just turned into a chill bird while i sat there.

    It was.... amazing. it was quite amazing really.

    Love tacos :yes: - they not only taste great, and have great texture (crunchy and creamy and everything in between), but they are pretty much a complete food pyramid in themselves.

    The bird is cool, he's pretty neat.


    Got the grass mowed yesterday evening , luckily all the paparazzi held off for a few.. LOL
    So many people have stopped by and thanked me and shaken my hand.

    This is turning out to be a bunch more of....everything, then what i had thought it
    would be after i did what i did.
    I didnt do this to be remembered.. I saved those animal's lives because someone had to.
    And that someone was me.

    Wow LinkedXJ ! That's an awesome thing you did! :salute: :thumbs: :handshake: You really are a hero - takes a special breed to run into a burning house! Especially to save the lives of "just pets"!

    Perhaps you've found your new career path? Or it found you?

    Hats off to you! :tip: I'll have a beer after work tonight in your honor! :cheers: (Probably a few actually... :D)

    You know you are in a very old pub in the UK if you are 5'10" and you have to duck to get in the bathroom door and you just get under the ceiling joists.

    Worked today and then walked/ran 3 miles. Fixed a gourmet dinner for wife, kids, and I, and am now relaxing in the A/C and watching the local news. What? Grilled cheese saniches on pumpernickel and Doritos are gourmet for some. :drool:

    For all you Taco lovers, make your own double decker tacos. Use a tortilla fire the outside, spackle a lil bit of refried beans then layer Doritos, or other tortilla chips, THEN put the rest of the Taco together.


    It'll blow your mind.

    I don't like to have tacos any other way now.
