Yup

How long did you wait to get a new dog after the old one had passed?

Sorry for your loss dude. And yea, there's no right answer. Kitten wanted to wait a year, so we have been, but I would have been ok with sooner.

Maybe, I don’t know, don’t.

I bet they already have flying cars. Assholes.

it all depends on the person. We lost 2 a couple of years ago. My Dad didn't get a new one cause he was full-time taking care of my mom before she passed...but he is pushing on 80 next year and while he might actually be more active than I am...i think he doesn't want to put up with all the care needed for a dog...even though I think it would be good for him so he is not alone all the time while I am at work

First time I saw Motorhead was as the musical "guests" on this show. Rik was my Mom's favorite. I was a Vyvyan fan. It's a great "filter" show where, if the humour doesn't jibe with you, then feel free to move along, thank you.

Sorry for your loss.

In 03 our first dog passed, and friend had one available, so we only went 6 days. That at first was too quick, but turned out fine. Since 08 we have had 2 dogs. When the older one has passed, the younger seems lost. We have picked up a 2nd within weeks since then. Funny, the previous younger, immediately has transitioned to the grumpy old man role when a new puppy arrives.

You never forget them, but it is up to you to decide when you want to deal with a new puppy.

I'm sorry, but I stopped reading at "Welp." What a stupid freaking word corruption. Just as bad as "prolly" and "ginormous."

In the wild. They're both in there. What a beautiful day after that smokey nonsense.

The big question isn't with the model itself. It's whether or not you're positive you're prepared for the maintenance on classic cars. Do you know of a shop in your area that can fix them? If so, do you know what they charge for various repairs and/or their hourly labor rate? If not, are you willing to take the time to learn it yourself and commit to keeping it in running shape? Do you know where to find parts?

I'm coming at this from the angle of seeing all the work and money my Dad has put over the last few decades into his 60s/70s cars and motorcycles. Even he's gotten some sticker shock and he's been building and/or fixing them since the early 60s. There have also been entire weekends where I had to go over to help him drop in a new engine or something. Not all jobs can be done with one person. A friend who works for beer can be a lifesaver.

Which are you replacing them with?

Honestly didn’t think too much in this direction and you’re dead right
