You did rescue work, whispering hands? Bravo to you.

Tia Torres is a badass and an angel over those dogs (and the parolees). I absolutely adore her.

"My mission is to rescue; my hope is that one day I won't have to."

chadwick, you'd dig her and maybe the Pits too.

Yeah, I hope to get to go out and do some volunteering fir them
One day!! Another day further in the future, I'd like to havea rescue open to allll animals!
At any one given time we'd have 9-22 dogs and we had 12 cats always! The last of the rescue cats passed away last year. Not all those dogs were Pits though. Craziest list we ever had was ten Pits, 4wolf-dogs, ( counting my two that lived there full time), two Siberian Huskies, three German Shepherds, a Doberman Pinscher, a Papillon, and One Rat Terrier! It took four people to walk all those dogs!! We were the K9 Mafia Animal rescue! And it was crazy hard work, but very rewarding most of the time.

Jesus, that sounds like heaven to me. My husband and I have often talked about "if we ever win the lottery". Animal rescue all the way.

Bless you for the work you did (and still want to do).

It's not so much about the breed or even the species...moreso about giving these animals a good, loving, happy and humane life.

(and hopefully having those who abused or neglected them being served a few or more jugs of justice - or at the least, education so they never again tread that road)

Chad, is it difficult to maintain a beard like yours? (At Ieast the beard you had in your old profile picture.)

Chad --
Cold, crisp Iowa morning. Sun just coming up over the horizon to punish the frost laying on the lawn. You walk out on the porch with bare feet, enjoying the cold & the world as it wakes up. You sit down and take a sip ....what do you have in your mug?

last-12-exit,

my beard maintenance nearly doesn't exist. all i do is take a clippers & run the thing around my mouth every couple weeks or something. im not much of a metrosexual man. i don't give two shits about fashion or going to get a manicure & pedicure or shaving nicely or keeping my hair nicely done. i trim my own toenails & fingernails because im a dude. i trim the whiskers around my mouth when im actually eating whiskers w/ the food i grubbin on. i do wash the area of my beard where my mouth is located after i eat as those whiskers collect food, sticks, leaves, prawn shells/tails, olives & flavors. i doubt i grow a zz top though. at some point i'll stop it, i suppose that would be my beard maintenance program

sometime i'm gonna have a few trinkets & beads braided into my face

Thanks dude, I have never written poetry but I have your book and another by a great board member (JonnyPistachio) and I do read that thread often to see what cool things come from the minds here. I enjoy picking up poems and reading again and again.
Never made it beyond writing short stories but I hope one day to do as many here have done and put something of substance out there.

Interesting choice of beverages, love the multiple selections. Makes me remember the Cereal thread and my sharing that I take the speedball approach and mix at least 3 cereals every time.

Chad,

Where did you go?
