What did you learn today?

I learned that a Canary Mastiff dog is called a Perro de Presa Canario (sometimes shortened to Presa Canario)

That's a big dog.

Did you know that canary, as the islands in the Atlantic are called, is not in reference to the small yellow bird or budgie, but rather it references a derivative of canine, or dog. Therefore the translation of the name of the breed would be Dog of Presa Dog. Also Presa is a small village in Slovenia.

Anyway, that's a big dog.

I have just received information that I will be cutting the lawn tomorrow...
...and speaking of cutting grass...We have a small strip of grass (8ft?). that fronts the residential road out front of the house. I cut the grass Tues. and built a kind of monument to the asshats who have thrown garbage out the window as they rode by our house.
Are you trying to hide the fact that you've been drinking, so you throw the bottle out into the grass?
With gawd as my judge...I picked up 16 smokeless tobacco canisters.
I'm thinking of spending the money to have a yard sign made...it would say "ONLY AZZHATTS LITTER".
I'd run the idea past the neighbors I care about before I spent any money.


Sorry.........screed over...
