Begging for Ban Thread #11

[Tevye]

I just read Blink's new article, and I just had to click on the porn site that George had visited  I need more coffee to digest these thoughts.

Good ol George is a real piece of work isn't he? - him and Cindy make me sick.  Can you imagine what kind of gifts they give each other?  Hmmm Cindy in something from Victoria's Secret and George in a speedo?  Good Lord they are 18 year old wannabe's 

And a whip 

Which explains why George always looks so whipped! And why he stays with The Evil Mistress of Doom!!!

You got it. Now if I can get the pic out of my head of George and the Evil Mistress of Doom doing things....  I just had a horrible thought, if George is into bondage, do they put something in your mouth or over your mouth, okay do they use tape to cover your mouth

Thanks, NRCG. We do have our times when we're wonderful...almost like the Waltons. Then the rest of the time, we're more like the Munsters!!!

Aww, hugs Mission, I'm sorry for your loss. That is so nice that you made a wreath for him. My dog was a shepherd too (maybe a belgian-we were never sure). We had him cremated, I still have his ashes in the tin they came in. We want to get a special urn, but we haven't been able to do it yet.

As long as we're sharing departed members of the family with fur, I'll tell you how we take care of our dogs that have passed on. (I'm waiting for a picture to print of my darling granddaughter, so I can justify the time!)

Murdoch was 17 when he died. We'd had him since he was a pup, our SIL gave him to our oldest (5 yrs) son. She got all the vet work done, gave him to our boy, then said "But don't let the little one play with him!" Our little one was 2, and he already had that devil look in his eyes! Well, we weren't stupid, we simply taught the 2 yr old how to behave with a dog, and the puppy how to hide!

Anyway, Murdoch died when his "boy" was away at college. By this time, Mur (as we called him) was blind and deaf, but still very loving. We'd had our whole yard fenced in so he would be safe- we never did it to keep our kids in, we did it for the dogs (we also had Bandit at the time). One night, in Feb., when it was 0 outside, Mur didn't come in when I blew his whistle (he could still here that darn whistle!) So, we mounted a search. Little brother (now 19), his girlfriend, DH and I put on the Sorels, the snowpants, and at 10 at night, we were all over the neighborhood, searching for Mur. Our neighborhood is a few houses surrounded by swamps, and pine forests. So, we had plenty of places to search. Luckily, there was a full moon, so we had some light to track by. But we lost his tracks in the swamp.

After a couple of hours of bone-chilling cold, we came in. He was nowhere to be found. I had a really bad feeling....So, without telling anyone what I was doing, I got in the van and drove up to the highway. All the time I was thinking "Surely he couldn't get that far! He'd have run into a tree or a house! I mean, for God's sake, he's BLIND!".

Well, I got to the highway....and saw a lump of something lying on the side of the road. I slowed down, but I wasn't certain. So, I came home, and made DH and son go look at the lump. They came home crying...it was Mur. We like to think he decided to go "walkabout" and as he crossed the road, his body got hit by a car, but his spirit just kept on running...

So, it's Feb. The ground is frozen. We're all crying like babies (up until this, I had always kinda laughed at people who were just devastated when they lost a pet). Our youngest went into the garage and came in 3 hours later. "Mom, come see what I did, and tell me if it's ok". So, out to the garage I go, wondering what on earth he could have done to ask me if it was OK....this was our problem child, he never CARED if it was ok, he just did it.

He had built a coffin for Murdoch. He'd carved a cross on it, wrote Murdoch Elizabeth, the dates, and then "We'll miss you, Good Dog". It was such a loving thing to do for his brother's dog.

The next day, he went to the rear of the yard and chipped away the frozen earth to make a hole deep enough so that no animals would disturb it. Then he and Dad buried Mur. We did not tell Mur's boy about it till he called the next day. He cried, and then said "Well, Mom, I guess I'm a man now...the boy's dog is gone, and so is the boy." Oh, that was hard.

When oldest son came home weeks later, we had a proper funeral for Murcoch. First, we let Son #1 go sit by his grave and cry, then he came in the house and asked for his trumpet. I got it. I had flowers brought from the store. Son #1 played taps, Son #2 read something from the bible, and we all cried. We really loved that dog! Son #2 made a headstone for him. All the grandkids know where Murdoch is buried and leave flowers for him now and then.

Carp, this is making me so sad I won't tell you about Bandit's death and obituary. Yes, I did an obit for a dog!! Wow, I think I might be attached to our animals!!

Aww, Tevye! I'm so sorry. Thank you for sharing your story about Murdoch. It is great that you got 17 great yrs with him.

sounds good, something tells me you will have stories to tell all day. Some families don't talk quiet, they yell about everything. Good times  Half the time we don't even know we are yelling at each other, having to talk over the tv's, music, and hard of hearing husband.

Chex cereal, any kind will do. Melt chocolate, peanut butter, butter and vanilla and pour over the chex mix. Then put powdered sugar in a bag, throw the chex concoction in the bag, and shake, and you have puppy chow. It is real good
