See those two little holes in the knitted blanket?
Do you think it’s a coincidence that they’re the size of Weimaraner puppy teeth?
You’ll find identical holes in your slippers, the toilet paper roll, and the steak you thought you were going to have for dinner.
Then you’ll decide to take him for a walk, to let loose some of that energy… But the leather loop handle will have been chewed through.
….
And when he grows up…
Oh I almost forgot!
They never grow up.

My sister in law’s Weimaraner lived to be 12.
She was still chewing up magazines when she could get to them, and in her last summer, ran off, and came home with a hot steak off somebody’s grill hanging from her mouth, cooked on one side.
Depending on the tune, the power-to-weight ratio would be approaching the 1000hp/ton mark, so with the live rear end and no driver (Read: Moron) assists, that is indeed Trouble with a capital T.
Yep, that is the way some influential people thought at one time. It seems bizarre to most people today. Today, fathers want their sons to bat or pitch left-handed for a hoped-for better chance at having a pro career.
If it makes you feel any better, I was asked the same questions, and so was my brother.
And we’re both right-handed.

Every elementary school teacher pulled me aside and gave me a handwriting workbook.
A high school teacher gave me a D on a well researched paper because she claimed not to be able to read it.
In those days we weren’t allowed to type papers…
And I wasn’t allowed to take a typing class because it wasn’t part of the college prep curriculum.
….
I learned to slow down and write legibly for short letters and papers, but the longer they get, and now the older i get, the worse my handwriting gets.
I can even do a little calligraphy, and write (slowly and carefully) on birthday cakes, both real and virtual.
But my quick notes to myself, shopping lists, etc, sometimes I can’t read.
Same. I did get pretty good at block letters on my drafting. I would use the horizontal blade of the drafting machine and slide the pen just a bit at the base of the letter
My pre-K teacher convinced my parents to have me be right handed. I write (not clearly) right handed, but do other things like brush my teeth left handed. Too me forever to throw correctly since I wanted to step as if I were throwing left handed. I do throw a frisbee left handed. I can write mirror writing with either hand. Now that I type most things, my hand writing is worse than ever.

I had not heard that Thelma Houston song for many years. I played in a cover band for a year while I was in college, and that was one of the tunes we covered. It was a fantastic dance song, being really a disco beat, and if we were having an “on” night we could rock the house. But we were never as good as the original.
Hey, I think if it’s a blue toothbrush brush, specifically designed for your blue blue-tooth toothbrush, it’s a blue blue blue-tooth toothbrush brush. (One more blue in there.)
….
Clara couldn’t use one on her red blue-tooth toothbrush, unless they also make a red blue-tooth toothbrush brush, which, if you bought her one in blue, would be a blue red blue-tooth toothbrush brush…..
Though you might prefer to get hers in a different color, to distinguish it from your blue toothbrush brush.
I suggest getting her a red red blue-tooth toothbrush brush, so you can tell them apart.

Want to play for a while?
That looks like trouble.
Another one!
I’m telling you, their cuteness is a scam.

You are describing Buddy. So far.
But did she share the steak? That could be worth a lot of forgiving.
NOSE!

Anything that comes equipped with roll bars immediately looks imposing and risky, but deliberately so.
That looks like trouble.

But I want one 🙂
Pool included whenever it rains.
I have an open-top sports car, and the trick is to keep moving over a certain speed. You only get wet if you slow down 😉
Yeah, I was wondering if it was a real Cobra, until I got to the engine.
Very uncomfortable for any length of time, very impractical, but oh so desirable!!
Could I have it in blue please?
…
Easy to say the words and ignore the colors…
Much harder to say the colors and ignore the words.
I reuse to scream
AHEEEE!
See… That’s your old scream.
You reused it!

Nope. Pop smoked those once.
Yup yup… We all know that smoking enhances athletic performance.
I mean… Why wouldn’t it?
And heating the tobacco purifies it so it won’t bother your throat.
I don’t think I have any salt grains big enough to help me swallow any of that.
…
Well, they must be honest people, though, those cigarette makers.
After all, it says right there…. they’re not saying smoking Luckies reduces flesh.
It might shorten its life expectancy, but apparently it won’t reduce it.
And here am I, up the creek without a … … … … retriever.
Buddy! 😀
Seriously. Looks just like him.
NOSE!
Doggy paddle.
bingo.the artist does a series of paintings like this based on puns…gonna have to get Alex to research and find out his/her name

find the snowman that is not duplicated
Every snowman, just like every snowflake, is different. It’s part of their charm.
OK, I think it’s
I got the same one.
I downloaded the picture and marked off pairs and that guy was left.
I do have to say that some of the pairs are pretty superficially “duplicated”…. but only that one has no near match.
I did it by colours and patterns, and that one was the odd one out.
I did too… I think they’re the only differentiating factors.
But when I found two with the same colors and pattern, I circled them, till there was only one left…
The same one you found.
To me he looks the same as
The one I think you’re talking about has a better match, though…
1 up from the bottom
3rd from the left.
(He’s just to the bottom left of the one MCTS and I are saying is single.)
The matching ones both have a red stripe on their scarves, while the single one has a lighter orange stripe.
At first glance it looks like all three match.

They tried that with me. Didn’t work.
They never tried to convert me, but they never tried to help me either. Why are you so messy at writing and making cut-outs?
If it makes you feel any better, I was asked the same questions, and so was my brother.

They put my dad through some sort of retraining program… I think it was in summer school, in the 1920s.
Didn’t work.
At least my grandparents gave up, and quit trying to correct him.
…
I have a friend who was told in the 1950s that girls can’t be left handed, so she must be mistaken.
She was taught in school to do everything badly with her right hand instead of using her left.
At home and later as an adult she used, and uses, her left hand…
But she still does some things the way she was taught, even though it’s awkward and makes no sense.
I bought her some left handed scissors and she couldn’t figure out how to make them cut.
My pre-K teacher convinced my parents to have me be right handed. I write (not clearly) right handed, but do other things like brush my teeth left handed.

May I go to bed now?
by that point I’d used up my quota of blues.and that made me blue.
you might call that the birth of the blues
Retired
I wish you would. 😉
I kinda thought someone would say that 😁
