YOU KNOW WHAT ERKS ME

He said WHAT?

I guess you would have to meet my dad to understand my dad. He is a tall quirky looking man with a gigantic nose, graying hair, imperfect posture and a beer belly. You can tell what type of guy he is also by my Maryjane post( http://youknowwhaterksme.blogspot.com/2006/08/my-past-with-maryjane.html )

Dad was telling me that he had to take his new dog to the vet to get the ol' snip snip. I guess it was a lucky day for the rascal because when dad called the vet, the assistant informed him that he was no longer a welcome client. Astonished, he asked why. She replied that there was a mark in his previous file stating that he was cruel to animals and written in parenthesis mention "bullet".

My father couldn't help but laugh hysterically, which if you new his laugh, it's funny in itself, kinda like the Rocky & Bullwinkle Moose cartoon. What happened.... Well dad went in to put down a violent cat. He inquired about the cost of the procedure (did I mention he is broke poor) and the vet said like over $100. My dad scooped the cat up in his arms and I quote ...blurted out "F*** that... a bullet is cheaper". The vet ran screaming after my dad telling him he couldn't do such an inhume thing and as my dad pulled off he blurted out again. "Watch Me!"

3 years later, the Vet still remembers, and now Dad is stuck with a dog that humps the couch leg, his leg, the table leg..so on and so on.

An update on the mean cat...turns out Dad found a mean lady that wanted a mean cat and they lived happily ever after!

That is hilarious!!! I can't believe that the vet 1) would take him seriously and 2) would make a note like that in his file.

Sounds like your dad just needs to find a new vet!

there aren't too many vets in the stix...where he lives. He is still looking though. I told him to get a coupon from the county ..since he is broke they would approve him.

To neuter my dog..the vet quoted me $300. Yowsa!

Hi! I'm here from Jen's blog!

Your dad sounds like he's as crazy as mine. I just posted a crazy conversation I had with my dad a few days ago on my blog. What a coincidence! Now if you tell me that your grandmother was also a hoochie coochie dancer in a traveling circus I'll just fall out of my chair! (I guess craziness runs in my family. The apples don't fall far from the proverbial tree. :D)

EJL said...

Anias...my grandmother wasn't in the circus..however she was far ahead of her time. She was one of my most favorite people on this earth. Born in 1900 and lived through everything imaginable. I am sure she did a little dancing here and there...

I didn't know my grandmother very well. I wish I could have. She died when I was really young. From all the stories I've heard about her, she was quite the wild thing!

EJL said...

Southern (in)Sanity said...

Oh, it's that "Rent My Blog" thing again.

I see...

EJL said...

yes. I very rarily rent a blog. But I rented hers b/c I like it so much. I just wish that some would read the posts I made and then comment.
I rent my blog out for only 10 credits..so I am not ripping people off. It is just a way to get exposure I guess..I only rent to cool people though...you would make that list.

Hypersonic said...

$300! Shit I could show yo a trick with two bricks that would be cheaper.

EJL said...

I don't know about that Alistair ... the dog is a "she" so I don't know if that would work......LOL.

I gotta get it done though b/c that is a messy little treat when she hits her monthly...ick!

EJL said...

Dog funny ...

My dog Daisy...a girl...Has just started humping my two male dogs ..like male dogs would hump...

Southern (in)Sanity said...

Wait a minute...I would make your blog tenant list?!?!??!

You call me a "biatch" on my own blog - but I'm "cool" enough that you would rent your blog to me.

No wonder I keep coming back to yours...you're too much!!!

EJL said...

Biatch is a term of endearment...bitch is another word!!!

Southern (in)Sanity said...
