My Jack Russell thinks now that the weather is wet and cold he should be allowed to piss in my house.  He also wants to run off into the Squamish estuary and attack the bears.  I have thoughts of letting him try.

Dude, the squamish estuary is the home of the most repulsive smells on the planet, and dogs are uniquely enabled to find them/roll in them. Our dog had the best time if her life, and smelled worse than anything I've ever experienced, for approximately 6 months (3 baths over that time).

I don't let either of my dogs off-leash in the estuary, but anywhere that salmon spawn is a bad place to let a dog wonder.  Dead fish smell soooooo bad.

My cell phone was near my ear when the test emergency alert notification went off, and my ear is still ringing...

We have a real-world problem if batman is not getting the emergency signal.

Was given tickets to the Canucks last night. Great seats! They got shut out.

All the coffee beans I can find here in Kauai are over roasted.

Hawkins cheezies have always been my favorite, but they seem too salty now.

How come us Dads are the ones stuck eating the Halloween candy no one else wants, eating the crusts in a loaf of bread that are left, eating the powdery last bit of the cereal in the bag etc.? They should make a new Mini-Wheats flavor just for Dads. "New Mini-Wheats powder for dads".

Have you ever lit them on fire? They burn easily

It's probably healthier to eat a cheese flavoured bucket of Crisco.

In my house it is because Dad will eat anything and is always hungry.  On Halloween, my daughter understands that there is a dad tax.  She is allergic to peanuts so I immediately eat all of the peanut treats... for safety.

I went to the same game, $1000 seats that my wife got in a work charity auction for $90 each (Club 500, private entrance and the best buffet I ever ate). Not a Canucks fan, so didn't care who won.

But after 3 plates, I had no room for the amazing desert table, and couldn't keep up to my usual 1 beer per period:(
