It happened only yesterday, (so it seems) A young man came upon My porch to get permission, To take my daughter to the prom. I told this boy I'm sorry, I wouldn't loan him my old Ford, Much less my baby daughter Not even to the store. My reasoning is simple, Why I'd submit to neither, When I was young and rowdy, I might throw a rod in either! But if you can get by my son (My baby daughter's brother) And then get past his puppies You can have her and her mother!    (Diesel 1 year old Pit)  (Hulk 11 months old French Mastif)  (Shogun 10 months old Neopolitan Mastif)[This message has been edited by Toerag (06-04-2010 09:44 PM).] |

Hah! That puny son of yours wouldn't bother me...neither would that harmless pooch. What would scare me would be having you for a father-in-law!!!!  (even for one as beautiful as yore daughter).Great pics, by the way. You have a terrific looking son and daughter. I'm assuming they're adopted?  |

By golly Toe your wife and daughter will be safe for sure while you have those pooches. They are a lot better than having a burglar alarm. Great pictures and words. Loved it. Lindsay |

Oh, what good days I've had meeting the parents of girlfriends. Knowing me, and being propositioned that- My only reply would be a smirk and 'That's a deal.' |

Yo, Toe! You sure do grow 'em big out your way. I think I'd just have second thoughts crossing the yard with all those dog-bombs. Talk about your anti-personel devices. Come to think about it, I've got two teenage daughters... perhaps I could borrow those pooches and that hulk of a son of yours a time or two. Great looking family you got there. Peace!
