Strange, maybe it’s the day or something, but my last two posts both have the same post count. And it remains one post shy of a rather well known number. It seems that the post that brings a post count to that particular milestone should be something devilishly (heh) momentous. But instead I’ve got this drivel.

Sigh.

ETA-- well, now it’s caught up.

But I’m still stuck with this silly ass post. Oh well, back to the bar-b-que. Somebody bring chocolate, please.

All jokes aside, this sounds delicious. I can just see firm, juicy discs of puppy flesh, swimming in a yummy, thick au gratin sauce. Jeez.

To answer the OP, it appears St Bernards are the go-to breed for those who eat K9s.

Yeah, but then you’re hungry again an hour later.

So, uh, do they make new moderators watch that video and tell you that if that doesn’t look like fun, this might not be the job for you? 😃

Yes, and you know, there’s nothing quite like bringing in the herd…
