First the fucking good news: my brother is home. Now for the fucking bad news: someone stole all sorts of tools and stuff from his garage in the last week or so. He can't go out there to look around, he's restricted to the "clean rooms" in the house. He keeps asking his daughter to go get things from the garage, and she says, "That's not out there anymore." So he has to wait for his wife to come home so she can go check and see what's missing and what his daughter is too lazy to look for. They have a $500 deductible on the house insurance and no receipts, so this could be tricky.

Fuck, I hate fucking thieves. We always left our garage side door unlocked, but no more.

Fuck that's upsetting! My supervisor at work is of the opinion that leaving his car unlocked is the way to keep things from getting stolen from it. On the other hand, he might not have anything worth stealing in his car, either... I wish your brother good luck with the insurance company.

the fucking insurance rules, at least here in Ca, are that they are obliged to take your word for what you had, and, pay pro-rated value, or, replacement, if you got the fucking replacement coverage.
Pics and fucking receipts just back you up, but, IIRC, you're not strictly compelled to have them.......and, you have a certain amount of time to add to the list of property as you remember or discover missing items.......
IIRC the exception was for vehicles with fucking titles. you had to produce the title for anything that has one.

My fucking cousin worked in the industry as an adjuster, and we discussed this relating to my other cousins break-in and resulting losses.

good fucking luck with that......

Fuck, my hamster Yakkums died. I know, in the grand scheme of things a hamster isn't much. I hadn't seen him all day, well he is nocturnal, so when I checked on him before bedtime, he was all curled up in his little bed-nest he'd made. Stiff and cold, but still cute and furry. Wah! Larry won't be home for a couple days, to bury him, so I had to put Yak in a box in the freezer. Then move his cage and food and stuff. Good-bye, little guy.

Fuck fucking circle of life.

Did your hamster have an ear ring?!? (At least that is what it looks like in the picture, in his left ear...) :?

It looks like he was happy in that picture.

Sorry to hear about his death, Anti-M!

Sorry to hear about your hamster, Anti-M. The ring on his little bed does make him look very piratical.

My son's leopard gecko kicked a couple of weeks ago. (He's away at college so I am the only one who got fucking traumatized.)

I was looking at the terrarium last night and trying to decide if I should clean it, pack it, and move it. I thought about posting it on freecycle but it has a big crack and there's too much broken crap listed already.

Today on freecycle someone was looking for a cage for an anole her daughter was bringing home from school.

FUCKING-A YES!

I still have a fucking lizard in the fucking freezer.

(((((AMTI M))))) I'm fucking sorry about the demise of your hamster - I had a wonderful rat - General Rat Ass P. Mutha Fucka III.

We are adopting a baby parrot next month - finally I will have a critter that will fucking outlive me.

We used to have two rats named Ben and Jerry ... each weighed about a pound. Big, fat lazy brown rats, who loved to be held. Later, Larry had a hamster named Smushie who rode on the semi with him. She got out at a truckstop somehow, he still managed to find her using his big spotlight ... UNDER the truck! She was an escape artist; she got out at his sister's place and here in the house. He always found her. He went into a truckstop for dinner and a shower, when he came out, she was dead on the floor of her cage.

Fuck, I hate losing pets.

Fuck, fuck, fuck!!! Why does someone also give you a fucking complicated assignment right when you're trying to leave the office early (yeah, 6PM is fucking early!)

Fucking Smushie rocked! Found under the truck! Wow! When pets go, it does fucking suck!

I'll never forget the time that I went out to see the baby kittens living in our backyard to find that they had been slaughtered! I never thought that animals could murder (as opposed to kill) but these kittens looked like a deranged fucking serial killer had gotten to them. Turns out it was a tom cat trying to break into another tom cat's territory. Apparently by killing the kittens, the mama would go in heat sooner so that she could have his fucking kittens. Okay, that's a nasty story, probably shouldn't have shared. But that's how fucking frustrated I am right now. That fucking image is coming to mind!!

But hey, decompression is this weekend. And if all goes well, if not tonight, I'll be able get my fucking rocking costume altered before Saturday! AND I'm so looking forward to fucking Decompression!

I have GOT to pay more fucking attention. I ran my fingers into the fan on a diesel truck. The good news is that it didn't hurt the fucking truck. Lots of band aids and masking tape and I can type again,,sort of. The other good news is that my fingers hurt enough that my back [that I broke 3 times] doesn't bother me. :D Always a silver lining.

Fuckin-a. Thats one of the things that I worry about every time I bend over the car engine. Truck just means bigger, worse, and larger gaps to but your hands in. The feeling dumb is almost as bad as the fucking pain. Sorry, man.

fciron, I've had a lot of time to get used to both the "dumb" and the pain. I've had a ladder slip out twice here. First time, i broke my back. The second time I shattered my heel and broke my foot and ankle. I'm starting to shy away from ladders. :wink:
Maybe I should tell them to buy ladders with good feet. Duhh
