My Nexus One is keeping me entertained... of course, that didn't stop me from ordering the HTC HD2 for shits and giggles! I read the fine print and T-mobile doesn't care if you swap the N1 out. Google had 90 days. So I can change to the HD2 if I want... I have a 3 week grace period to decide. Of course, they've announced a HD2 Android version for June....:lol:

marko138 05-11-2010 07:46 AM

My dog is not eating his food. I have no idea why. He used to freak out when you got his food, he'd wolf it down in seconds. Now, he'll eat a few bites and walk away. Eventually he'll finish it but it's usually hours later. He's otherwise normal. Plays, wants snacks and treats.

I would watch him for a few days or maybe get some new/fresher food and se ehow that works.

This is day 3 of this business. The bag was new on Wednesday of last week. Maybe there's something he doesn't like about this bag. Its the same food as he's eaten for the last 3 years.

He hasn't eaten a single bite yet this morning.

Maybe buy a new bag and try that. Not eating can be the first sign somethings wrong, seen it with my kittehs and would get them to the vet prety quickly.

I know. We are worried about him. But like I said everything else is normal. He ran like a banshee on Sunday, playing like crazy. Actually this is day 4. This started Friday. I better call the Vet today.

Any signs of weight loss?

No, b/c he'll eat the food at some point. Or at least he has up to this point. And he still drools all over the damn place when we eat our dinner.

I'm sorta thinking it's something with this bag of food. It came with a sample can of some of wet dog food. So after he wouldn't touch his dry food last night I cracked the can open and he went nuts like he normally does and scarfed that down in seconds.

It's normal behavior from what I've noticed. My last lab did that when he got tired of one brand of food. We swapped for another or mix in table scraps/wet food and he'd go to town. Casper (my current dog) started doing that a couple months ago when everyone started feeding him table scraps. Apparently dry food pales in comparison to real food.

I'm supposed to have the rest on Thursday. But, my trip to NJ with BMW was moved up a day because they are having two days of demos. I'm just glad my professors like me enough to reschedule finals. My head hurts.

I have my volunteer stuff for my daughter's marching band too - I'm head of a committee for their silent auction on Tuesday. Something is really wrong with me. I need to go to Over-Acheivers anonymous.

The monster is in the shop, the 998 needs an oil change - and I'm selling it. My truck ate itself. Yeah, it's all fun times... :lol:

three bad cylinders and two bad injectors. :panic: We'll call that "catastrophic failure." To say it wasn't running well is an understatement. Good news, a new motor is going into it this week. 2006 with 16,000 miles on it. Thanks Ford. Too bad it was "nobody's" fault. So much for me buying a track car...

Kids are worth it. Crazy busy. But, worth it.

Though, take note not to post on a mother's picture of her daughter that said daughter is "bangable" and then ask when she's legal. :wink:

It did get washed by the porter at the dealer when they replaced my shifter but it was only a quick wash not a detail. Then I rode in the rain AGAIN. Then this weekend I worked 12hrs each day so no time to wash bike. Today, first day off... rain all day. Maybe Wed I will be able to... grrr

Tricked the dog into eating. Got a few cans of wet food. Mixing it 50/50 with his dry stuff. He pounds it just like normal. Now he's doing everything he can to like the empty can clean...tail wagging at rought 150mph. :lol:


My bike hasnt been cleaned either. Hasn't even come out of the shed since that Sunday GM was here. The weather deciding to return to March didn't help.

There are more than one of a few of those, including the S1000RR. If you get there too late to sign up, just wait for me to get back from whatever demo I'm on - I'll make sure you get to ride some of the toys.

Plenty of touring choices, very nice. I wouldnt mind some seat time on the s1000 but wont loose any sleep if I dont get it. I do want to try the K1300gt and the r1200rt, and maybe go all out on the K1200LT just to ride a full on touring bike.

Now just to make more room in the garage :lol:

They've changed the motor on the 1200RT - it's now angry. I ride the R1200RTP all weekend... it's dreamy. My only complaint is there are too many buttons :lol: I threw on the sirens on a ride in Long Beach and didn't know how to turn them off. Good times.

The LT is just a tank - it has reverse and the automated center stand. The GT is the 1300 inline four. All of them are a different ride - the RT is my favorite, but then, it's the smallest and most nimble of the three.

i think either the 1300gt or the 1200rt would make adequate eventual repacements for the aprilia. Curious to see how they ride and see the differences side by side.

Weren't they sold in very limited numbers In the first place? From a corporate viewpoint you really don't need to demo something like that. It sells itself

How many miles have you done at a time on that Priller?

I rode it home from the rally/gap last year. that was my longest ride on it. I have also done numerous 400 plus mile days on it from twisty rides to slabbing/touring.

They were originally on the demo fleet this year. It is BMW's corporate policy to share the crack with the public... give them a taste and you'll HAVE them.

Tommy, I think you'd like the RT more than the GT. The brick motor has holy engine braking.
