    I know it hurts and I know it sucks. Maybe just sit quiet a bit and think back to all the good times you guys had together. I know that doesn't really help, but he was your favorite for a reason and you feel bad because your relationship with him was REAL. Have a drink for him and peace to you.

    You know you can spin that around and be the caller thinking that way. You never know what the customer service rep's day or week has been like. I tend to think like that when I call the cable companies. I am mad before I ever dial the number.

    I dunno what it is about some of them females man but I got a daughter the same way. She can shoot like nobodies business. The very FIRST time I put my 30-06 in her hands at 100 yards, she hit the bullseye twice and the three other shots were less than 3 inches off of the bullseye. I told her after that: "Don't point that thing at me"!:thumbsup:

    Yes ma'am. That is a fact. That is what I like about that picture. That pup is alert, ears up and eyes wide. You can teach a dog like that.

    True, but you can teach them to be polite {sit, stay, down, walk on a leash, etc.....}

    Yes cancer does suck. And I will just leave it at that.

    Looks like a nice FJ on the endcap there..

    My best friend drives a FJ that looks a lot like that. Friday made reservations at the same cabin stayed at last year grouse hunting on the North Shore of Lake Superior. When I went into google to look it up seen this when I drilled down

    [​IMG]

    Hey that is my Weber Red Kettle!! And Jon's FJ.

    We had taken the buggy about 40 miles away to hunt and parked the truck and trailer on the edge of the Boundary Waters.

    [​IMG]

    We were just coming out of a trail and the google car with tower and camera went by.

    [​IMG]

    Chance was one in a million or greater. That "road" it went down was so bad that when we first drove it in Jon's FJ he had me get out and spot him a few times. Looks kind of like this most of the way.

    [​IMG]

    Never did find the google car so he must have made it out OK. Not sure how though LOL. Only vehicle we seen all day.

    I was 11 and remember it well. Watching houses crash into one of the bridges from the hill. Don't recall the exact details of the homes but do vividly recall Chandlers barn hitting it full on and red barn boards exploding everywhere. Then you could hear it. Few years later Agnes came though and was as bad. They put in a lot of flood control after that.

    I am not a fan of MRI's because I don't like going through them. But it may be worth it for you to have them take a deeper look. Good luck and wish you the best outcome possible Dan.
