I'm kinda sad my dads dog died late last night. I was told that he was pooping blood and his back legs stopped working last night. I had just been playing with him yesterday and he seemed normal. He was about 15 though so it was about time but I didn't think it would be so sudden like that.

Man I'm going to miss that lil dude, he was always cranky but was hilarious and sort of crazy. I wonder how the other dog is doing now that she's alone. I'll probably stop over there with one of my dogs and see how she is.

Shit now I'm really sad my dad just texted me that he died in his arms at the very waiting to get put down. That sucks.
He's the one on the right. This was taken over the summer when he was in a playful mood which was extremely rare.

Frown: I don't really like my boss, but she's kinda sorta attractive (really nice rack).

Smile: She approved my usage of the community room behind our building for my band's practice sessions for free. There's usually a $25 fee per use, but she's waiving it for me.

Bonus smile: she wore a shirt that totally ended up revealing just about everything while I was talking to her. It was tough not to peek. I still don't like her. But she purdy, alright. She purdy.

Posts analyzing a woman's "rack" might be off-putting to some of our female members and likely will not help us attract additional female members.

That said... :lol:

My heart aches for you pal. A part of the family pets are.

Smile: Found a great condition Neo Geo MVS cabinet with 7 carts included for $250 on craigslist!

Frown: Called him and the guy sold it yesterday.... it had been on there for almost a week.

Double frown: I check every week.... And now daily.

I'll probably never use it - thing takes 6 C batteries - but it's the thought that counts right?
6 C batteries hahaha!!!

I have a Tandy Color tape deck that takes six C batteries. There's is a power cable but it wasn't included. I've never tested the fucker because I didn't want to drop the cash on said batteries. It's one of those tape decks that has the self-contained speaker, looks like the type of thing you used to see in every elementary school classroom.

I also lack the cord that connects the tape deck to the computer. Why the hell do I even have this thing?

To hang off you're belt and look like a hipster when you go into town?

SMILE: Girlfriend showed up with a black and red cosmetic bag she didn't want that will fit loose Game Boy cartridges perfectly, and suggested I use it for that purpose.

ANOTHER SMILE: Action Replay showed up and I played my first import Saturn game, Street Fighter Zero 2, for a good chunk of time. Been reading up on all sorts of Saturn imports the last couple nights.
