My dog is going to cause me to end up in therapy.
The smart SOB can now open up doors in the house. Including the door to the garage and the one from the garage to outside.
Fucker is gonna cost me $800 in new door handles.

Years ago, my sister had a Rhodesian Ridgeback who learned he could open any door in the house, including the refrigerator. She ended up “child proofing” the entire house.
She once caught him outside biting one of her car’s door handles trying to open it. He would could watch anything and figure it out.
That was the smartest dog I’ve ever known.

Guessing thats a CUMulus cloud.

Started talking with the wiff about my side of the family last night, cause we were watching True Grit. Showed her the family cemetery, she never realized it was named what it was.
Best position I could get in with the time allotted. Unlike steel, live things have the ability to move...
My twins graduated from High School today. If that doesn’t make a guy feel old…..
Congrats! I know the feeling. Looks like you had great weather for an outdoor event in “Flake”.
It couldn’t have been better. Hit 80 degrees yesterday and we’re in the shade for the whole thing.
Party is on Saturday and there’s a 98% chance of a “heavy” thunderstorm!
Another reminder why we’re building a detached garage with a 16’ top plate… Getting ready for a track day this weekend.
I hate crawling around under cars on hot concrete just to do basic maintenance…Should be finished, and have the lift in by Thanksgiving. Can’t wait!

No sh*t. I'm dealing with this right now. My dog can open any interior door, and even locked me inside my own garage once (does deadbolts too). Two nights ago, she opened the refrigerator door (but didn't close it)...had several items including milk go bad. I don't know how many times I have told her "If you are going to go into the fridge by yourself, you need to close it!!"
LOL! @UKDslayer
This was in the eighties. She used some kind of “child proofing “ Velcro latches that were about 5 feet off the ground on every door and frame.
The Ridgeback was big. Facing me he could put his front paws on my shoulders and look behind me. He tried scratching at the Velcro locks with his paws but couldn’t open the doors which led to lots of scratches on door frames.

New pressure control assembly for the compressor today. Guess I got tired of looking at it sit in the corner sad for the last few months.
This guy is crawling now. He’s like a jeep owner goes a few inches and starts crying.
Rogers Field Devens…….
Lot of dudes spent their last living day CONUS here……
Today my daughters lacrosse tourney….

Some relaxing view this morning at ofuck thirty
Fixing a door for some neighbor friends of ours. Their son threw stuff at it and put holes in it. The wood on the left is glued in and needs flushed up. Gluing 3 pieces of 3" wide oak together to get the thickness I need to glue in the other hole. Will do wood filler to fill cracks. Trimming blocks with hand plane and hand saw. Squared up holes with battery jigsaw.
Before pics.
Is he special needs or have a candy apple red ass still?
Neighbor kid.
The door holes happened at least a year ago. He is 10. He gets mad in the same pattern I do. Analytical, driver, amiable, expressive. Amiable is boiler building up followed by expressive ie boiler bursting. Sorta berserk rage. Gets scary. Trying to help him get a better hold of it by knowing and realizing the pattern. Getting mad happens in a z pattern.
The door is now his older sister's.

No sir. Coyotes or Bald Eagles had him gone by morning.
Had to go just a shade high on him/her (or whatever it identifies as) due to position and obstructions, as it nibbled on Miss Lori’s garden... The desired result was achieved none the less.
If you guys get tired of my dopey kill shot pics, let me know. For me it’s good positional practice and keeps the population down to where Miss Lori can have a garden that actually produces something we enjoy. Tonight kneeling at about 60 yards. My wobble zone opens up a bit in that position, so, I need to work on that. I was going for just behind the shoulder...

When you run out of varmints, pack it up and head my way. We got plenty of old NC swamp rabbits around the place
Finished the door. They are going to paint it. On the bottom hole I should've cut the hole square to gravity. Would've made fitting grain direction easy. Turned out about like I wanted it to. Got paid $30 + a loaf of homemade bread. Wasn't doing it for the money though.
Homemade bread is the best!
If you look close, you can see the rainbow.
I may take you up on that if I ever thin the herd up this way. You can sweeten the pot if you guarantee coon, opossum, and woodchuck
someone mention home made bread, proofed over night ready for morning baking.

No woodchucks, but have angry beavers all in the swamplandI may take you up on that if I ever thin the herd up this way. You can sweeten the pot if you guarantee coon, opossum, and woodchuck
In it's new home. Actually got it running after carb rebuild, oil change and new dist cap/rotor/points/condenser. Water pump is seized so didn't run it long, missing on at least one cylinder and some noise probably from stuck lifters. All in all, not bad for not having not been cranked in probably 40+ years. Hand/voice is my 81yr old neighbor/local old car guru.
