hehe sounds good! and if she does.. you guys are welcome on my boat anytime :)

not that you are not already welcome..... but i was going to say the same thing :tooth:

thanks GUYS really...
 

as tough as i am...

ready to take on ten guys at once in a brawl

and most likely win from all the hard core rock work i've done

this whole thing has really ....

.................................................. ........

done a number on me...it feels like ....ANDRE' the giant

stomped the Sh!t out of me....to try to put it in words

and just to read those words...sure helps tremendously

to lighten the load

so to speak...

....words can't even begin to express my (our) appreciation

i have to go take a walk now...for a bit...

to breathe some fresh air

ahhh i feel better now
 

i shoveled up (turned over) a new raised wide row - garden bed

4 feet wide.... by 45 feet long... the soil (loam) is now 18 inches deep...and it took me 90 minutes...

i am all pumped up now like .... Arnold Swazenager YA....

He and i share the SAME birthday ya know... :cheers: 7/30


ps. the Bunch of Robins out there..... just "LOVE " me

The more I know people, the more I love dogs. PP sent.

Raven:
I just sent $100 on PayPal. Let me know if you don't receive it.

Paulie

To all those interested ... Raven just sent me a PM stating he's taking Star back to the vet tonight because her wound is opening up again, for him the hole just keeps getting deeper and harder to climb out of.

He also wanted to thank all those who have cowboyed up and helped them out and hopes more will come through to help out financially as indeed the hole is getting deeper with possible surgery #3 tonight, even $5 or $10 bucks helps at this point.

Tight lines guys!

STAR update
 

well we took her back to the hospital thinkin here we go.........
round three coming up
because the size of the hole or tear in her stitches had doubled when i left her alone .....to go work for just 3 hours...

but they took a long look at it and decided
to treat the area with a cell
growth promoting substance
and wrap her up tight since all signs of infection
from hitting a rusty pipe doing 40 mph
had ceased
she's resting peacefully now...

talked to an attourney
 

that is a real tiger...who wrote up the paper work for the farm

and he told me that the neighbor and i each own 50%
of that pipe together...and that it isn't !
NOT owned by anyone.

like the friggan neighbor tried to tell me...

so technically he's 50% liable for damages
not to mention a millisecond after she hit it
shes in his yard bleeding to death... :hs:

and heck.... his insurance would be paying for it anyway :huh:
and i doubt his premium would increase THAT much...

he just chooses to be a friggan total JERK is all..
http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c6.../rustypipe.jpg

i don't know what i'll do about him...yet.
probably have to turn him into a worm
and then take him fishin. :heybaby: lol

i know just the spot :hidin:

but to be perfectly honest
 

i think this guy is a big waste of my time

at this point........

i am more interested in raising public awareness

nationally about these friggan land mines

and the potential for disaster for humans and dogs

than to recoup 1/2 my losses from his
home owners insurance policy

i am hiring Jay Severin on talk radio wtkk 96.9
to help me do the JOB

and he'll help me for free
because he's a big dog person and a terrific guy

Hey Raven, glad the pup is doing better. Don't get in a pissing contest. Let the bastard go. These things are all regulated by Karma and "what comes around, goes around". He will get his just due.

sometimes i like to give karma a break from all the work it has to do ;)

i agree Paul
 

Trust me.....
i don't want a
Hatfields and McCoys situation here

the town hall people already know
the whole story on how he acted
about the whole thing...
and there is no law about removing a boundary marker
... that i have found anywhere thus far...

i 'm liking your .... position and life philosophy
more and more...and everytime you write something
i am impressed... i have to say :btu:
~
ya know those flexible strips that are placed in the middle of
the road with the reflective tape on them...

a car can run over one of them
and they just pop right back up again

well personally , thats what i think
should be in the ground
not a rigid piece of rusty pipe...

the surveyor said that usually those pipes
are either 30 inches tall.. or flush to the ground
and this was neither.... and i'll not rest until i've made
every effort to see that this situation is rectified...and
not just for me... for the whole USA.... because NOW

i am a man .........on a Mission...

thats soooo funny
 

thanks for the laughter...

i needed that...
seeing star trying to sniff the ground like
a live vacume cleaner with the dog cone collar on kinda sucks

not to mention it gets hung up on everything
everywhere she goes .....when it's time to go pee pee :hs:

no problem :)
 

isn't the the worst. they look so defeated when they have to walk through doorways or figure out how to eat. I posted this a while back when the deed was done. You might remember.

http://images36.fotki.com/v1156/phot...mera109-vi.jpg

nope i missed that one
 

i don't miss that many though

well i did it
 

==========================================
i got on the JAY Severin Show a few minutes ago and got my message out to the masses via radio... :btu:

and thats a good start and now i feel like

i've made a difference now at preventing others from
having this happen to them

and even Jay Severin who has a place up on the north shore
said he has them all over the place... which is WHY i had to tell others.

yep
 

yep......... TAKE ME TO YOUR LEADER

hahaha craig, that is great.

Hows the pup raven?

Star is sound asleep
 

she has a brand new bandage

and will return back to the hospital

one week from today to repeat the process

the surgeon says she's healing slowly but

doing fairly well... considering.http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c6...rpletuxedo.jpg

i couldn't believe it
 

my neighbor actually stopped by to ask where i wanted
the grass clippings we talked about last ....thanksgiving

i need them as mulch in the garden and for compost....

he also inquired on how the dog was doing
and then apologized for the way he acted
last week... and that was unexpected...:cputin:

i parked a mini trailer over there for him to fill
up that i can haul away with the old troy built tiller.

it's time to mow....already :hs: and lots of it :lasso:
