rants and observations

Darnell Pratt will be released from prison in June after serving less than five years of a nine year sentence for dragging Grant De Patie under his car for 7.5 kilometres. Mr. Pratt was caught stealing gas in a stolen Chrysler LeBaron and Grant, an employee at the Esso station, attempted to stop his car from leaving the lot.

We received a phone call from The City of Port Moody regarding our complaint about our neighbour’s dog and it appears it has been deemed Aggressive. This results in an increase in their annual dog license fee and a requirement that the dog be muzzled when in any public area. I don’t believe the dog is actually aggressive but rather it just doesn’t like my dog and my dog doesn’t like it. This does, however, force them to leash their pet and ensures we don’t have a repeat performance. And if we do then things will become considerably more uncomfortable to our neighbourhood a-holes.

Well, the assholes signed for and received the registered letter we sent containing a copy of the vet bill and a letter advising we will take them to court if they don’t pay the bill. And what did they do? Nothing. But then again, what would expect from assholes?

It’s well known that some dogs just don’t like other dogs. Our dog Benjamin and a neighbour’s dog just a block away don’t like each other and waste no time barking and posturing whenever they meet. They’ve had 3 run-ins over the years and we keep Benjamin on a leash at all times on his walks only because this dog however our neighbour are not nearly as responsible.
