if they're drinking spiked seltzer you should bludgeon them with a beaver or something equally canadian.

hindquarters of a moose?

what a fucking shit night and day. so last night, the dog we've had about a year, while my 9yo was calmly sitting next to him and patting him, snarled, turned, and bit him in the face. It was the last straw - he'd bitten our petsitter in the hand in a similar, unprovoked situation over labor day weekend, and had done similar things with me and both kids in the past. while he's always been protective of food and toys he gets - and even sometimes getting off our bed - growling in an an aggressive way, we've been working with him on following commands a lot and it seemed like he was getting better with that stuff. but the unprovoked biting can't go on, so i had to write the email to the rescue group we got him from to say we need to either give him back or surrender him to a shepherd rescue group. never had something like this happen with a dog before, and it sucks, because he is also a goofy, smart, fun guy too. I think he just needs a home with an older owner who can really spend a lot more time with him. fuckity fuck fuck.

Negative. Leeloo.

So all of your bikes are named Leeloo?

 

[Full Trucker]

that looks fun. Large or XL?

Large. Longer front-center/wheelbase/reach numbers, but the way I have the two bikes set up a surprisingly similar ETT feel. By the numbers the 5.5 had a longer ETT, but I ran the saddle all the way forward on the rails and I run it all the way back on the SB150 so it's pretty similar. Stack is 14mm lower on the new bike, and it's super noticeable. Having a bit of a time figuring out how many spacers to put under the stem.

this explains a lot about you.

And even more about his mom.

Sounds like the dog thinks he is in charge. As you didn't mention trips to the ER, I assume these weren't intended to hurt people but to tell them to fuck off. Understandable if you have lost trust in this beast but if not you need to show him who is in charge. Start off by not letting him on your bed. Try to find a non aggressive way to keep him off, water spray or something like that he will hate.

Same thing with food, he only eats when you're done and he eats under your terms. Make him do something subservient before he eats.

Are you billing her for hours worked hauling those into the house?

I would have shrugged and put them in the hallway at work, if I was not provided with adequate storage. Then again, I'm on the opposite end of the totem pole as a Director of anything.

One of our neighbours has been asking to do a road ride together for a few years now. Brief chat this morning and I succumbed and said I had an hour at midday to do a loop. 2 minutes into the ride and he drops that he just qualified for the 2020 UCI Gran Fondo World Championships in Vancouver next year...

That was a fast 14miles, 1900ft vert in 56 minutes.

Wow, I really admire how calm you stayed. If a dog would have bitten my kid the dog would be dead in no time.
