Damn-I just fed my little Grover a grape last night ! No impact, though. Guess I'll heed the warning from now on. Thanks in the way of fake karma !
Thanks!
I know we had given our dogs grapes from time to time, so that freaked me out a bit when I read it. We tend not to give them much "people food" any more, anyway, though because it makes one of them quite stinky!
My Grover ate wolfsbane a couple of months ago. It is an herb also known as Monk'shood and is beautiful when it blooms. We have a yard with hundreds of specimens of plants, wild and domestic. I have had several dogs who have instinctively known better, so we have never eradicated it.
The thursday morning I show up at roo this year, after driving all night, I get a call from my wife at 8 in the morning. "Grover won't wake up and has pissed all over himself. I took him to the vet. They have him on IV and I am waiting to hear back from them".
I am helpless, so far away, and it only contributes to that edgey-drove all night-it's 95 friggin' degrees and I need to sleep before tonight feeling.
Later in the day, I hear from my wife. She got a call from one of our vets who asks, " I don't want to be presumptuous, but is there any chance Grover could have gotten into some "herb"? " (she didn't use that word for it tho !) My wife responds by saying, "I guess". Not giving the clear answer that he has licked the bowl to some funky batter and it never tore him up like that.
Anyways, he pooped out the wolf'sbane leaves and exonerated us in the vet's eyes, except for the "I guess" admission ! He is fine now and was after a day's iv fluids and 250 $ at the vet. Really try to watch what goes in his mouth now, even though he doesn't ! And the vet's office people call him Grateful Grover now. And my wife will never wear a tie dye to the vet's again !!!!
That's the extremely annotated version of that story. You ought to hear it told the right way !!

Me and my roommates are throwing our first party of the year tonight and I'm in charge of making the playlist, since I have more music than all 3 of my other roommates combined.
Too bad for everyone else my opinion of good party music doesn't consist of Lil' John, Usher, or Kanye West
Hmmmm - I could take that two ways - either you are giving it away or someone imprisoned Tequila and we need to get him/her loose (oh yeah - I forgot - in Mississippi - it is a very likely possibility that someone currently in jail is named Tequila - LOL)

This party is insane. We've bought 2 kegs, they got killed in 2 hours, bought a 3rd one and opened up more liquor, and it's still goin crazy. not to mention the corn room which has been burning all night.
and yet, here I am... on Inforoo. I think I have a problem.

Obviously MS and AL have the same share the same population base... The town I grew up in has had to hire 5 new Spanish teachers to keep up with the increase in kids that don't speak ANY English coming into the local school systems....and this is a town with a population of less than 25,000......but hey, now that I don't make my bi-weekly pilgrimages to H-El Paso anymore, at least I have a new pipeline for good, cheap tequila
Britney Spears new album comes out the same week as Celine Dion's I am leaving the country that week. Don't know when it is, don't know where I will go, don't care, I am LEAVING!!!

Summer is ending.
Not here. We've got about another month or so. The days are getting shorter, but it's still pretty hot. The Dave show was outside last night and it was 80ish and muggy. Add in some dancin' and I was pretty sweaty.
