While out of town today, my assinine neighbor jumped my fence to allegedly try and put my barking dog in my house and my dog allegedly bit him. Who is in the wrong here, my neighbor or my dog.

Its Nelson Mandela's fault. (that bastard)

Lady Cop So you pay all the bills? A couple questions, Who is going to make the car payments, insurance, license, and fill the tank. Does he do anything to help around your home, like mow the yard, clean the gutters, carry out the trash, clean his room? If your answer is I do all this, then smack him hard, then throw him out. He can sleep in his car til they repo it. It's called tough "love".

My son is fifteen, since he was nine he has been mowing lawns and doing landscape maintenance work. Since hes been earning money we have the 1/3 rule.

So far so good, but when he starts driving next year I think were gonna have a war... he wants to pull his trailer with a brand new Mustang! I don't think so!

You wouldn't be a good Far if he didn't hate something about you at 16. My daughter hated me from 14 - 16.5. She went throught her rebellion early. We are good friends today. She is 21, an adult in charge of her life, married, and only calls me for recipes questions and advice on her impending pregnancy. She also calls because she just misses me and I do the same. OOHHH gotta go call my da - her first day at her new job.

Far rider the education your son has been getting is so valuable, someday he will realize it. If my math is correct he has made $28 grand in the last 6 years, pretty darn good for a teen-ager. If he can carry the expense of a Mustang I don't see where you have a leg to stand on. I realize $28 grand goes a lot further in Ill. than it does in Ca. About pulling his cart with his Mustang would cause a problem around here, even if he was just joking. :driving:

Far - don't forget to get him something that doesn't have power steering - LOL

He's almost as big as me, so im glad he did it then!

Sounds like a really good relationship - my hat is off to you............a hands on father!

Since cars has been in the discussion I heard a really funny true story yesterday.

This man who is about 45 yr. told me, him and his two sons had a chore in their yard that required a larger truck than their pick-up. So they went to his fathers and borrow his old farm truck. On the way home one of his kids asked him what those cranks on the inside of the doors were? "They were the handles that roll down the windows". That cracked me up. Made both os us feel ancient too.

To LC: Yes.

To Far: I shocked and surprised you have your son tithe on only 1/3 of what he earns rather than the whole thing. *hands on hips glaring disapprovingly ... and sarcastically*

?

he did this saturday the same day the dog bit him. My dog is ok, the other dog was a bit listliss yesterday and today, and was eating grass. I told the ex all about it. I was told in confidence by another neighbor that this happened. So today I marched over there and got the GF at the door, told her the ex's dog was sick, the vet said it injested something and I acted all worried about the jerks foot and told the GF to keep and eye on his foot incase whatever the dogs got into did not infect him, and I told her I was worried for his sake. She then fessed up that she told him not to jump the fence, and in honesty gang, I am glad my dog bit him, he was forever harassing my dog through the fence and making him bark then I would yell at my dog and he the neighbor would say oh it is ok I am bugging him. The stupid jerk so deserved the bite. And I hope his GF is all worried now about the dogs being sick supposedly.

I donÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t know who wrote thisÃ¢â‚¬¦it wasnÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t me.

I fully realize that I have not succeeded in answering all of your questionsÃ¢â‚¬¦Indeed, I feel I have not answered any of them completely. The answers I have found only serve to raise a whole new set of questions, which only lead to more problems, some of which we werenÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t even aware were problems.

LOL didn't notice any pot at Allman Bros when I saw them. Most drugs I ever saw was at a beach boys concert!!!

I hope if dogs ever take over the world, and they chose a king, they don't just go by size, because I bet there are some Chihuahuas with some good ideas.
