Hair of the dog boys and girls, hair of the dog. Crying or Very sad

Tim, O'Neill's in Lexington is a great place, nothing like the experience you described. I'd highly recommend it if you're ever Ky. bound. Paying for it this morning, but I'm determined to get my run in this morning and give Velvet a proper bath. Looking at some different, non-stock rims for her, just need to make up my mind. Everybody have a safe and blessed holiday weekend and please, please remember the true reason for Memorial Day! Dancing

Louisville is as close as I ever get to Lexington, where frog legs and hush puppies are still offered as a means to regret crossing the Ohio River Shocked

.
Chicky, I just scrolled back and checked out your existing rims. Be sure to hold on to them--they look nice and go well with the whitewalls. You never know when you might want to go back to stock.

So, as promised, here's a couple pictures of Cooper. One with my daughter, the other with me. Today is his first day home.

It was difficult picking Cooper from the litter, but we managed. Besides, I let my wife do the picking, so when it comes time to spend more money on the bug, maybe she'll remember Rolling Eyes

He's sleeping in his cubby now. I guess we wore him out, showing him his $4000.00 worth of dog toys (he liked the rubber squeaky shoe the best).

sb, I never cared much for weed--even in the sixties. And I was never a "hippie". True, I hung out for a while in '68 in Haight-Ashbury--but, although I may have looked like them, I just didn't quite fit in with all the drugs and irresponsibility. To me, my appearance today is merely a symbol of what it is to be free of an employer that thinks it's best if you look like 1957 ad infinitum.

Retirement has its good points, you see. Freedom is really just a matter of money, I guess.

Cusser, believe it or not, it seems that most VW owners here in Redding look pretty much like me. It's sort of like all the vampires in Paris in the novel Interview With The Vampire, having the same color hair. Go figure!

As for Cooper, he's been a great addition to the family, thus far. But I have a feeling that tonight we're going to have a little trouble sleeping Wink

Later, gators,

Tim

Where's Waldo?
