That would be a very tall cat to get its junk that high. Those are 20" wheels and the piss is running down from well over half way up.

Yeah, I'm sure you're right. Just thought I'd mention it.

We also have coyotes, do you?

I would hate to think one of your neighbors let his/her dog pee on your shiny 20" wheels.

Yes but not in the city.

Around here all the street corner pavements/sidewalks in residential areas are stained permanently from dog piss. It's not my property, but clearly it's got a bit out of control. There are constant wars over dog fouling along common dog walking routes, and my personal absolute least favourite, the dog poo bags which are filled with said substance and then strewn wherever they land.

I like dogs, but this is a problem with owners.

Agree. We have that problem somewhat. I walk 6 nights a week and because it's dark there's been a few times I've stepped in it. What a way to ruin your walk!

It's rare, but it's happened. Now I carry a small flashlight with me.

I know what you mean about the poo packets. I have a corner lot and one side has a lot of trees. I used to have someone that would toss their bag in among the trees as they walked by. I started tossing them back out on the street when I found them. The poo packets stopped appearing in my yard shortly after that. That either worked or they stopped walking on my street.
Don't get me wrong, I love dogs and have had dogs most of my life. I have friends that say I was a dog in a past life because I get along with every dog I meet. It's the irresponsible owners that get under my skin.

My cleaning lady puts all the kitchen knives back in the wrong slots.

I'm sure doggo is fine. He's probably handling the separation better than you are. You'll be back together before you know it. Have a great weekend.

I guess I have a dirty mind as well.

When you stop to get fuel and the little click thing isn't there and you actually have to hold the handle the whole time you pump.

Have you ever had the pump NOT shut off when it was full? I have. It's a mess. I always hold the handle till it's done because of that. It's only happened to me a couple times, but that's all I needed. lol

Welcome to NS. Those little click things are illegal here. I used to take the gas cap and jam it in to hold the handle open but that didn't always work. I've had the attendant shut the pump off from inside and tell me to take the gas cap out or they wouldn't turn it back on. I guess cleaning the windshield was a dead give-away.

Nope, but I can imagine that would be a nightmare lol. It's my work car so wouldn't be as concerned. Now that's going to be in my head when I fill up the X5

Haha, sorry about that.

Short version:
Had to take sleep test Tuesday night. Slept like Sh!t
Stopped for coffee at Starbucks on the way home from work. Wanted a Nitro brew somekind or other. Guy came on the speaker "May I take your order" and I panicked, ordered the wrong item and hated it.

Day ruined

Haven't been able to drive the M3 in weeks because the county is repaving the road out front of my house and the end of my driveway is currently too steep.

CTinline-six · 04-29-2021, 08:39 AM

1. I work from home for my new job so haven't really been driving anywhere, and I like driving.

2. The only 2 days it's been warm enough this month to drive my Wrangler with no top or doors it ended up raining.
