HAPPY NEW YEAR from DOWNUNDER

[Leo Tanner]

All the dogs round here just had a freak out.  Angel just laid here an the look on her face was, "what's all the fuss about?"   She's turned out to be one great dog. 

Not sure what is for supper, Lil said she would pick somethin up.

[Texas Lawdog]

I'm putting a Pot O Cawfee on the fire to boil for the early risers.

[Four-Eyed Buck]

Thanks, TLD. Babysitting duty again today

I'm alive, have even had coffee.  Feel a lot less snotty today, don't have to be at work till 5.  Gonna take it easy till then.

[Leo Tanner]

Good ta hear you are feelin better.  Ya sounded like hell yesterday.  It's no fun bein miserable an seems a lot of folks are these days.

Another cold day for us. It has not been above freezing all week. Victoria loves the cold weather. She likes to lay out in the back yard. I think she was probably an outdoor dog before we got her. I twisted my knee on Mon. and I am walking around with a cane. I'm staying off my leg as much as possible. The Great Northern Bean soup tasted good last night. I cut up some Polish Sausage and frozen Spinach in it. It tasted good. We well have the leftovers tonight. I'm gonna get Moose to make some Japaleno Cornbread to go with the soup.  I hope the sick folks get get better.

[Leo Tanner]

I prayed ta the bowl 3 times early this mornin an then switched ta ridin the porcelain Honda like a pro.  I think I would rather have had Del's head cold.  All is quiet fer now but I aint gonna let ma guard down just yet.  And no Arcey, it weren't ma cookin.

Hittin the Gatorade in force.  Got some lunch in me an all is quiet on the southern front.  Wanna have a good evenin with Lil so I am takin it easy taday.  May just shut my eyes for a few, them Christmas boxes can wait ta be put up another day.  They don't seem ta be buggin nobody so I say let em stay a spell.

[Delmonico]

Why would she want to hang around a poopy butt?

[Leo Tanner]

And make sure you have plenty of TP, daub, don't wipe.

Yeah, the septic tank is gonna have a bone ta pick with me.  Don't know if sayin, "I'm sorry" to it helps but I figgured I'd try.

[Arcey]

Hope y’all get ta feelin’ better.

Ain’t sick myself. Disgusted. Rookie school is tough. The street is tougher. There are limits. Off limits is an instructor continuin’ to beat onna recruit after he knocks him out.

I am sure the lawyers are chompin' at the bits for a law suit against the city.

[Leo Tanner]

I'm sure the family is more innerested in criminal charges than a civil suit.  Then again ya never know with some folks.

[Texas Lawdog]

A civil case would probably be easier to prove than a criminal case.

[Delmonico]

A civil case would probably be easier to prove than a criminal case.

Ask OJ.  I'd think they'd push for both.

[Leo Tanner]

Cawfee is up.  Breakfast scramble with all the good stuff.  Seem ta have ma gut in check an am hungry as a horse.  Still avoiding the septic tank, it's gonna need some time ta cool off.

[Texas Lawdog]

Leo, I hope that your innards have calmed down for a while. I'm ready for some breakfast myself. I'm making Cawfee for the Moose before she heads off to school this morning. We're supposed to warm up today into the high 40s. I'm ready for a warm day or two.

[Four-Eyed Buck]

That stuff is no fun, Leo

15 here, light snow. Last day on sitting duty........Buck

[Silver Creek Slim]

Morning y'all.
Thanks fer the coffee and grub, Leo.

Hope yer feeling better, pards.

Got about 1" of snow yesterday. 'Tis 12 and overcast. "Cloudy. A chance of light snow late in the afternoon. Highs 19 to 24. Light and variable wind. Chance of snow 30 percent." Inch or two of snow tonight.

Well I slept late this morning, gonna be lazy till time for work, felling a bit better.

Can I get you folks to have some good thoughts and prayers for an Aussie friend of mine down Brisbane way.  We got word early this week he'd had to leave home and go to a shelter with both his dogs.  We ain't heard back from him.  We're in contact with another Aussie who's out of the flood area.  She's texted him but got no answer back.  We've heard the floods have even drowned out a lot of the cell towers.
