Dyeing Dogs In China the New Craze






So apparently the Chinese weren't satisfied with the colloquial nature of there pups furs, so when people get tired of their hair color we dye it, when people get tired of their dogs color, they dye it. Gives me some good ideas for when I get my Weimaraner. I'm thinking a giraffe would be cool.

PS, willablog, I think Jozy would make a great Unicorn.

My First Bad eBay Transaction

On August 9th my mom propositioned me for a new pair of running shoes. I got on my eBay app on my iPhone and found a pair of Brook's Launch for 70.00. I purchased them immediately as the seller had 100% positive feedback. I received an email shortly there after with the following message: "Hi, PayPal is being strange with their new policies, I need to order these shoes from the manufacturer, could you please leave positive feedback so I can order the shoes and in return I will hook you up with fast shipping." I sent a very concerning but complying email in response and left feedback. 20 minutes later I received an email notification from PayPal indicating that a shipping label had been prepared for my package. It has been almost 3 weeks and the shoes have still yet to come in. I filed a case against the seller with eBay and PayPal on Monday and as of today I have received a full refund including shipping fees. All this after multiple unanswered emails to the seller.

Getting my D Liscense for coaching in the state of Louisiana and after

Dinner at Texas Road House Tuesday Night

Every Tuesday night me, Mike & Brad and Ashley all go eat before we go to the Bowling Alley. This past Tuesday the Outside Sales Rep for Gulf Cranes attended, not knowing me or wife, or what we look like, here is the conversation. The scene is set with me, Mike, Brad, and Rocky sitting at the table. My wife approaches but sees a friend sitting across the way and accosts their table. Passing us by and walking away from our table, the conversation begins:

Rocky: Holy Shit did you see the ass on that chick?

Me: Who that chick right there? (Pointing to my left)

Rocky: Yeah that one standing across from us, she's fine as hell!

Me: Dude, that's my wife! (smiling from the audacious compliment)

Rocky: Whatever man, she's fine man. You're joking!! (getting worried)

Me: No, seriously watch, "Hey babe."

Ashley: What's up?

Me: Just wanted to say hi...

Ashley: Why, go away I'm talking. (smiling)

Rocky: Wow, she really is your wife, my bad man, I'm sorry. But she is fine.

Me: No worries, sharing is caring. I like her too. (Laughing hysterically)

From the Makers of Cajun Onstar...

So the guys that brought you Cajun Onstar are at it again. This is their most recent video, a music video dedicated to the oil field. I would like to note that I found the Cajun Onstar video a little demographically degrading and set Louisiana back about 150y years. Despite that, I found this video quite funny. Ironically, he has rhythm.

Conversation

Last night I won two very expensive pairs of shoes for very cheap. They were 2 pair of Martin Dingman Oxfords, retail was 525.00 and I won the auction for 37.45. The response goes as follows:

Me: Nice, I am the eBay king, Happy Birthday me!

Eden (daughter): Daddy, that's not nice, don't say that. Your name is Daddy!

Me: But baby I won the shoes I am the eBay king!

Eden: Daddy, that's not nice go in time out! Sit down right now daddy!

Me: I'm sorry baby!

Eden: It's ok daddy, now sit down and watch me play!

Water Melon Patch

My dad, as some of you may know, is an avid gardenere (not a real word I'm sure), and has been growing a vegetable garden since I was a young lad. He has, as of late, began a watermelon patch, here are a few photos of some of his water melons.




My lovely wife and daughter taking in the size of the watermelons. Eden learned how to use the word "huge" in context that day.

This one weighs 60lbs.



This is the size compared to a size 10 boot!







These photos were actually taken before they were even ripe. I don't eat watermelons, but I am sure I will be obligated to try these.

Sorry It's Been A While

I haven't posted in quite some time due to the fact that my keyboard on my laptop is missing keys, the most important one being the space bar. Other than that, I have just been a bit lazy in my efforts to realize that anything interesting was happening enough to post about. But last night I was watching a few things on youtube and found 2 very interesting videos, and here they are.



This is a video from a Japanese baseball league. Aboslutely amazing catch. Talk about a pissed off batter.





And this one of an American AAA baseball team with a Japanese ball girl. I see a direct correlation to these videos....
