Welcome to Gotshoo?, proudly serving the inter-tubes since 2000. Gotshoo? is the personal of Chris Scheufele, that's me. I live in Springfield, Illinois with my wife and two dogs, Buddy and Clancy. I work during the day as an IT consultant and play at night with a freelance company called After Hours Development, and put together cool projects like Spfldbloggers.com
When I am not tinkering with computers and code, I am taking pictures trying to keep up with my daily photo, or riding my bike, or playing with the dogs.
The dog above, Clancy, has cost me about $25 dollars in dog collars the last two weeks. He keeps chewing Bud’s collar off. I’ve tried apple bitter stuff, correcting him, and even threatening to sell him on Craigslist for a dollar to some creepy guy. Nothing has worked.
GTG is gone for the weekend. Bidding price starts at $1.
First off, he’s cost more than $25. Each collar is around $8, and he’s eaten six of them so far. You do the math.
On another note, if my Clancy is gone when I get back from B-town, I’m going to sell each of your cameras for $0.01 on Craigslist.
For real, you can’t count or add, and they were 4 dollars and some change with tax coming out to 5 bucks.
I should know, I am keeping the receipts to deduct them from our taxes.
Soak that baby with hot sauce. Works every time.
Hot sauce might work OK for Clancy but I’m thinking Buddy might not appreciate that. You should just learn to smile and say “oh, that clancy” and move on with life… And promptly after drink a bottle of wine then laugh out loud about it. That sounds like a perfectly reasonable system to me.
I second Nattie’s advice. And GTG – I did the math, and it comes out to $480,000. I might have misplaced a decimal someplace though.
Dave, looks like your figures are right on. No wonder I haven’t been able to afford that afternoon mocha. Thank you for you actuary skills.
TP – Thanks for the idea. I’ve actually been contemplating doing it, but I didn’t know how Bud, the dog wearing the collar, would react. I guess desperate times require desperate measures. Taking down my Craiglists auction now and heading out to buy Dave’s Insanity Sauce.
Nattie, I’ve tried that method. I guess I am just wound too tight to begin with.
