Speaker 2 0:25

I am. Are we still in January?

Speaker 1 0:28

Yeah.

Speaker 2 0:28

Yeah. Yeah, still January 42nd week of January. Is that where we are?

Speaker 1 0:34

Yeah, january's a long month 93 days. What was it last week? Yeah, january's been long. I forgot what day it last week. Yeah, january's been long. I forgot what day it was. But me and the boys were doing something and I was trying to get the dog, ray, to come in the house.

Speaker 2 0:55

Good luck.

Speaker 1 0:55

Because both dogs were outside. I hear a bunch of barking. I was like, oh, they're just getting the energy out. So I was like y'all come upstairs, and normally Ray doesn't listen.

Speaker 2 1:04

Yeah.

Speaker 1 1:05

She bolts upstairs, comes in the house. I was like that's weird. So then the next thing, you know, I look and I'm like why she got blood on her leg. What so? She had blood on her leg and then I noticed her little. They call it a dewclaw.

Speaker 2 1:26

D-E-W-claw that makes my knees hurt, but go ahead.

Speaker 1 1:31

I don't know what it do, but it do make me lightheaded when it's sideways and there's blood involved. So I'm like, oh gosh, lay down. So she lays down and I'm like okay, did you lay down?

Speaker 1 1:47

yeah, should have I sat down on the floor with her, but so it's all kicked out nine degrees, oh my gosh. And I'm like I guess I try to. Did you get pull it off? I don't know. So, oh, no, I was, it was after school. Sorry, I just remembered. I have a horrible memory, so I just remember it was after school. We were about to go get haircuts of course you were, so I was gonna put them in the crates, and then we're gonna do that yeah so anyway, but her little crochet hook was kicked out sideways.

Speaker 1 2:20

I couldn't do it. So then I called, called the vet, and they're like I said, what time do y'all close? We close at five, okay. So she goes out to the car, carter kind of holds her, we drive to the vet and then they said, yeah, we can see her. Whatever, bring her in. Of course you know dogs, like you take them to the vet, they're like tails wagging.

Speaker 2 2:43

Right.

Speaker 1 2:45

I'm good to go now. It's fine. I got some blood on your floor, it's all right. Um, so then they said they cut it like way back and wrapped it up and all this stuff anyway. So she got the collar on for the last week or so.

Speaker 1 2:59

The big cone, the cone of shame yes but like after she'd been home like two days, I unwrapped it and I'm like, wait a minute, the nails still on there, kind of. Still I don't know what they cut. They didn't do anything. They basically just stopped bleeding and charged me money.

Speaker 2 3:18

But oh my goodness, I don't know so anyway, she's on antibiotics in case it gets infected.

Speaker 1 3:25

Yeah, which it probably will.

Speaker 2 3:27

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 3:28

But yeah, that was fun. We didn't get a haircut that day.

Speaker 2 3:30

No, you got a nail cut.

Speaker 1 3:33

Yeah, but I do not like that little claw.

Speaker 2 3:36

Is it the one that's like? Considered their thumb?

Speaker 1 3:39

Yeah, it's a little higher up. Yeah, it's kind of making me have to breathe like, yeah it, this is where you and I are. Like, well, the next time you see her yeah, I mean, it's not that bad when you this happened last week last week yeah wait a minute.

Speaker 2 3:56

Has that happened to her before? She had something with her other dewclaw you can hardly say it, just call them don't-claws, because they don't be having good luck. Yeah, I don't know. I'm so sorry. It's always something with the dogs.

Speaker 1 4:15

Yeah, and it's never good timing.

Speaker 2 4:17

Oh no, it's like we are leaving to go to the airport. The dog is throwing up something purple. Okay, well, that's great.

Speaker 1 4:25

Yeah's great. Yeah, by the way, also, where's my retainer?

Speaker 2 4:29

yeah, I think I know where it is. I haven't found it, but I think I know probably where it is. Yeah, um, oh, yeah, I'm sorry that's all right.

Speaker 1 4:40

I mean we had that. Speaking of retainer, we had that one time with kylo. He got x-rayed because we couldn't find one of the boys retainers.

Speaker 2 4:49

And they were like there's something retainer-ish? No, he didn't need it.

Speaker 1 4:52

We just wanted to spend more money.

Speaker 2 4:54

Oh.

Speaker 1 4:54

Like he's fine. It's not in there. I was like dadgummit.

Speaker 2 4:59

Oh, my goodness.

Speaker 1 5:05

I was kind of hoping it was because we just paid to have an x-ray. Yeah, but yeah, so that was a good start to the week.

Speaker 2 5:08

Oh my gosh, the upside-down lampshade. Look, that's what she's sporting. Huh the cone, it's always so funny. To me it looks like you know, like they're wearing a lampshade upside down.

Speaker 1 5:19

And the sizes of cones.

Speaker 2 5:21

Oh, don't get me started. Of cones, oh, don't get me started.

Speaker 1 5:23

So she's got a. She's kind of like a little kind of looks like a corgi terrier, whatever little dog.

Speaker 2 5:31

So she's not big, but she has like a stout she's she is stout. She's built like a running back Right. Yeah, she's got a little cinder block neck.

Speaker 1 5:40

So she has to get a bigger cone.

Speaker 2 5:42

Yes.

Speaker 1 5:43

But then it looks like they're just down the hallway when you look at them.

Speaker 2 5:49

Oh, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 5:51

I don't like it.

Speaker 2 5:55

Well, our dog rest in peace had a long body. Oh yeah, yeah, she was a little long. She was a schnauzer poodle about 20-something pounds poodle about 20 something pounds. So you'd get a cone but you needed to get the extra long cone, like an extended because she could still get to her back foot or something with it.

Speaker 2 6:14

So, but then it didn't fit her skinny neck. So you're like, how many wraparound times do I do this? And then she couldn't even walk because the cone was like almost, you know, foot and a half in front of her.

Speaker 1 6:28

Yeah, that's not my favorite it was not my favorite part of having a dog, it do not work well um anyway, it was yeah, but yeah oh, and then also, I guess it was like maybe I wasn't in the best mood after that.

Speaker 2 6:46

I can't imagine why it was like the next day or so.

Speaker 1 6:48

I'm dealing with dewclaws and dog cones and I keep getting all these spam calls. Oh my gosh.

Speaker 2 6:56

They have ramped.

Speaker 1 6:57

I get five to ten. I get at least five a day.

Speaker 2 7:00

So I have noticed the same thing. Okay, FYI, we have not talked about this.

Speaker 1 7:04

Okay, fyi, we have not talked about this?

Speaker 2 7:07

Okay, listeners, maybe, but the last week because you know, like on your iPhone or smartphone or whatever I guess it does say might be a spam call.

Speaker 1 7:16

Mm-hmm, I don't see that.

Speaker 2 7:18

All of a sudden, I started getting them All of a sudden, like maybe I don't don't know six days ago, and I've been getting two or three a day and I'm like what's going on?

Speaker 1 7:27

at least I keep getting one from this financial company trying to like I don't know, but normally I don't answer it, but I was in a mood oh, yeah, so I was like, yeah, let's do it, let's talk about it so I'll talk to you about dewclaws you selling dog cones. So I was like, yeah, let's do it. And then so I answer the phone and there's that little pause. So there's the pause, and then they go. Is this Robin Booth?

Speaker 2 7:58

Because sometimes I get her calls oh yeah, batter up, let's do it.

Speaker 1 8:01

They think I make the money and then they're like is this Robin Booth? And I just went. No, would you like to buy Girl Scout cookies?

Speaker 2 8:09

No, you did not.

Speaker 1 8:10

They hung up immediately.

Speaker 2 8:12

That's the best I'm going to do that.

Speaker 1 8:14

Yeah, but then like the next day, oh yeah, the next day Robin was like doing something, phone rings. It was her phone, she was getting a spam call. I said or I don't, or maybe it was mine. I was like can I?

Speaker 2 8:31

can I answer this?

Speaker 1 8:31

And she was like yeah, go ahead and answer. I was like watch this so I answer it, do the same thing.

Speaker 2 8:35

Yeah.

Speaker 1 8:35

There wasn't a pause, but they're like hello, is this Marty Booth or? Whatever I was like um yeah, would you like to buy Girl scout cookies? I didn't say yeah, sorry, because they want you to say yeah I just said don't answer their question, don't say the word yes.

Speaker 1 8:48

I said would you like to buy girl scout cookies? And the guy goes um sure what kind you got. I was like, okay, all right, here we go. I said, uh, thin mints. He said what else? I was like uh, we got everything. I was like do you want to pay with visa or MasterCard? I said, hold on, let me get a pen. And I said, if you want to go ahead with that number and CVV. I was like we can get those out to you. He goes oh, I only pay cash for things.

Speaker 2 9:16

I was like oh, okay, then no.

Speaker 1 9:20

And then he goes. Well, can I ask you a question? I said no, I'm busy, and he said well, I won't waste your time. And I said great.

Speaker 2 9:32

That is the best.

Speaker 1 9:35

So just ask him would you like to buy Girl Scout cookies? I think it works, I mean I'm yeah, or would?

Speaker 2 9:41

you like to donate to my? I don't know fill in the blank yeah. But, yeah, would you like to make a donation?

Speaker 1 9:49

But I was like kudos for playing along.

Speaker 2 9:51

Kudos for playing along. I only pay cash. But, you do have to remember. Don't answer that question Like when they say is this you know? Because now they want you to say yes, because if they get you say yes, or right an affirmative answer to the question they're answering asking you. They can, yeah, whatever, Hack your whatever. Oh my gosh. I also don't like when people call and ask for donations, even if it's a legit thing, because not to sound old and distrusting. But I don't, yeah.

Speaker 2 10:34

Yeah, well, usually I believe in the sheriff's department and I believe in the firefighters. Right and I believe my taxes probably should cover that and I'll drive by the fire station. If you got a bucket out there, I might make an extra donation, but I don't want you to call me. No because I don't know now if you're this, the, and have you heard about that whole scam, about the? Hey, there's some kind of warrant it's like a whole thing and you need to get your name clear.

I don't know what business, oh yeah, somewhere in nashville but you point is if somebody's calling you and it's not your dentist and you forgot to pay the bill or something, do not pay or say yes or nothing. Don't do it over the phone.

Speaker 1 11:21

Yeah Well, even when I mess with them, I'm like did I say yes?

Speaker 2 11:25

I know it's scary.

Speaker 1 11:26

You get in a conversation.

Speaker 2 11:28

I just click it, decline or answer it and not say anything, and then click.

Speaker 1 11:34

Yeah.

Speaker 2 11:34

I don't know if that's One time I used to just answer it and then just set my phone there can you hold on a second, yeah, and then just leave it.

Speaker 1 11:42

Yeah, yeah, I've done that and just see how long they sit there right, yeah, but um I used to have the sheriff's call, oh, like once a week, I know, for like a couple months I don't think that's a sheriff. I had one on call and he was like this is blah, blah, blah, we're doing this for officers who've sheriff.

Speaker 1 17:26

Robin's dad still does that. They still get a paper.

Speaker 2 17:29

Yeah, and he'll bust that paper open and be like I think my in-laws maybe still get a paper.

I think he'll still look in the paper and be like Braves play at four o'clock or whatever, yeah Well old school.

Speaker 2 17:39

Old school man.

Speaker 1 17:41

Which I kind of like it.

Speaker 2 17:42

I kind of like it too, because if you didn't see it in the paper, you didn't even kind of have to know it.

Speaker 1 17:47

Right, yeah, it was like a, it was just a. Very well, I'd always remember, like my uncle or whatever, somebody being a recliner.

Speaker 2 17:56

Yes.

Speaker 1 17:56

And the paper First of all, when you open a newspaper.

Speaker 2 18:00

You can't see. You can't see the rest of the room. It's just like a wall.

Speaker 1 18:03

Yeah, it's ginormous, your arm's getting tired and you're holding it out like a poster board and then a kid does something, that little flip down with that one corner.

Speaker 2 18:11

They go like what y'all doing, yeah, and look over the paper. Everybody knows what that's like.

Speaker 1 18:16

Yeah.

Speaker 2 18:17

And you didn't mess with a parent or a grandparent if they were reading the paper.

Speaker 1 18:21

No, that means they were busy and they didn't want to talk to children.

Speaker 2 18:24

Yeah, they're having a cup of coffee, you know.

Speaker 1 18:27

And you knew you were in trouble when they closed it up real quick and slammed it down on that TV tray. You're like I'm out. I said no running, I'm out, I said no running, I'm going outside.

Speaker 2 18:38

I promise, yeah, sports page Now. Did you read the funnies? I remember how you called the funny paper.

Speaker 2 19:15

Yeah, did you ever do the thing with the silly putty? Oh yeah, on the paper Put it down on the comic and then peel it back up. I mean we didn't have anything to do, y'all.

Speaker 1 19:28

But then your silly putty is kind of like tinted Now it's kind of dirty looking yeah.

Speaker 2 19:31

I guess I'm rolling it back up. Looks kind of like old gum, but there we go I know, and I'd be like I got to buy some new silly putty.

Speaker 1 19:40

We go to the store, if that's on your list.

Speaker 2 19:42

You really didn't have any kind of screen or social media.

Speaker 1 19:45

You're like I just messed mine up on the funny page when you're at the store and you buy a silly putty, you're planning to get bored later.

Speaker 2 19:54

Yeah.

Speaker 1 19:56

You're like, oh, I'm going to be bored tomorrow, let's go ahead and get one of those.

Speaker 2 19:58

It got dog hair in it. I need some more.

Speaker 1 20:00

I needed some silly putty and I get some more. Can I get some more BBs?

Speaker 2 20:03

Yes, oh man, those were good days, though. Go outside and shoot the BB gun.

Speaker 1 20:08

I still have.

Speaker 2 20:10

You still have BBs.

Speaker 1 20:11

I still have the BB. I got it my eighth birthday.

Speaker 2 20:15

The daisy.

Speaker 1 20:16

The daisy.

Speaker 2 20:17

Yeah, not the Red Ryder. No, no, daisy, lever action, pump action, whatever, or the yeah, like the handle under the.

Speaker 1 20:25

Yeah, I got it when I was either seven or eight, I think eight.

Speaker 2 20:28

Yeah.

Speaker 1 20:29

And I remember, because in the picture where I get the gun, yeah, it was me, you and the one kid that remembered it was my birthday.

Speaker 2 20:39

I'm so sorry so.

Speaker 1 20:40

Kevin.

Speaker 2 20:41

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 20:42

I don't think I ever talked to him after that day. But yeah, he came, my buddy Nick. I still talk to him all the time, but his mom I remember she felt horrible. She's like I forgot it was Marty's birthday or something, so he didn't go. I remember taking that BB gun and we'd go to our grandparents' house and they had a creek. Do you remember this?

Speaker 2 21:05

Maybe, and we would throw.

Speaker 1 21:05

Coke cans in the creek and let them float under, and then we'd shoot them with a BB gun and shoot them. Yeah, and try to, it was not very environmentally friendly but yeah, and try to sink them. Yeah, I thought it sink them.

Speaker 2 21:18

Yeah, I thought it was fun. You can spend a lot of time yeah.

Speaker 1 21:21

I'd go through BBs quick.

Speaker 2 21:23

Yeah, it's cheaper than a streaming service, though I'll tell you that.

Speaker 1 21:28

Yeah, they came in a little milk carton.

Speaker 2 21:31

Yes, now they come in plastic.

Speaker 1 21:32

Yeah, we still got them. They come in plastic.

Speaker 2 21:34

Pop off top or something. We've got actually a BB gun. I think it's our oldest son's, is it?

Speaker 1 21:44

a pellet gun. It's a BB gun with metal BBs. Yeah, but do you have to pump it up like a bunch?

Speaker 2 21:52

I don't think so. I can't remember, I don't know. I didn't buy it.

Speaker 1 21:56

Yeah.

Speaker 2 21:59

I mean, he also had a. What do you call that Paintball, or not paintball? No, no, no.

Speaker 1 22:03

Airsoft, airsoft. Our boy's got the. What is it? Nerf gel fire.

Speaker 2 22:13

Is that less soft?

Speaker 1 22:15

It's these tiny like I don't know.

Speaker 2 22:19

They're not plastic BBs, they're like the size of fleas.

Speaker 1 22:22

I mean they're tiny, but then you soak them in water what? And then they get to about the size of a BB, but they have a tiny bit of water in it.

Speaker 2 22:33

And you got to soak them first before you put them in the gun.

Speaker 1 22:35

Yeah, because I mean they're like 5,000 is like in a tiny Skittles pack.

Speaker 2 22:42

Do they hurt?

Speaker 1 22:43

Yeah.

Speaker 2 22:44

Yeah, we did that. Yes, they do, we put on goggles, they don't hurt.

Speaker 1 22:50

Yeah, they hurt. I got hit in top of my ear oh my gosh, that didn't feel great. Uh, forehead, because the glasses don't go up there. And then, uh, yeah, I've done that a couple of times with them. I'm like I don't enjoy it. Yeah, let's just shoot each other with an old BB gun. It's about the same thing.

Speaker 2 23:09

Or the foam. Uh, what are those?

Speaker 1 23:14

Ner, it's about the same thing.

Speaker 2 23:16

Or the foam. What are those Nerf? Yeah, with the, Just a regular Nerf bullet. Yeah, yeah, those already hit close enough range. Yeah, that's true, man. We had so many of those. I still have them in a plastic tub in my garage.

Speaker 1 23:27

Nerf guns yeah, we still have.

Speaker 2 23:29

You know the white and orange and purple ones.

Speaker 1 23:31

Yeah, we still have those. We still have, you know, the white and orange and purple ones.

Speaker 2 23:33

Yeah, we still have those. I would find those foam things everywhere for years, Like maybe 15 years.

Speaker 1 23:39

I don't think we had growing up Did we have Nerf guns.

Speaker 2 23:45

We had a Nerf, excuse me.

Speaker 1 23:47

Football.

Speaker 2 23:47

Football, that was orange. And finally, the dog ate so much of it that we finally threw it away.

Speaker 1 23:52

Which I didn't know. I guess it was yesterday's years that's hard to say. That's a lot of S's the a kicker used to be the kicker for the Minnesota Vikings. A long time ago created the Nerf football.

Speaker 2 24:08

Get out.

Speaker 1 24:10

Which I was like they were, because they were talking about the best toys oh yeah, and I was like that was a strong that was a strong invention you play football in the house like this is insane yeah, I think we have.

Speaker 2 24:21

Well, when we got that nerf football, it might have been for you or it might have been for both of us. We were little because it only came in orange it was like gatorade it only came in one color.

Speaker 1 24:31

Yeah.

Speaker 2 24:31

I'm almost positive. It was kind of the first. I wonder when they came out with that. I'm going to say 70s. Nerd football, yeah, but I think you could only pick orange, because I was a little bit like you know, because we were an ever big orange.

Speaker 1 24:45

Oh yeah, family, I doubt he played at.

Speaker 2 24:51

Alabama in his college career. Yeah, yeah, no. But I was like this is cool and they were. I think they well, now they're a little like more dense and kind of. You know, they have like the little spiral lines on them. But this was back when it was just kind of coated Just straight up foam. It was really really soft.

Speaker 1 25:11

It was. He invented it in 1972. Okay.

Speaker 2 25:15

Well, I was born in 73, so we probably got one when we were little-ish.

Speaker 1 25:19

Fred Cox, a former Minnesota Vikings placekeeper, and then he sold it to Parker Brothers, who later sold it to Hasbro. Not Mattel, okay, I guess, I don't know, they are strong. Yeah, mattel. Okay, I guess.

Speaker 2 25:34

I don't know, I'm strong.

Speaker 1 25:34

Nerf football. I think full circle. I think I remember shooting my Nerf football with my Daisy BB gun.

Speaker 2 25:42

Oh, okay, yeah, maybe that's why.

Speaker 1 25:44

Spoiler alert they bounce off.

Speaker 2 25:48

Wear my goggles. I think some of them get stuck in there.

Speaker 1 25:50

Yeah, maybe that's why the coating started coming off.

Speaker 2 25:51

I guess I was. I think some of them get stuck in there. Yeah, but yeah, that's also. Maybe that's why the coding started coming off.

Speaker 1 25:54

I guess I was bored from playing with my silly putty. I was like you know what? I'm going to shoot the football.

Speaker 2 26:00

Right, I've played with the Nerf football and now I'm shooting it.

Speaker 1 26:04

Yeah, I'm going to throw it in the creek? Yeah, and sink it.

Speaker 2 26:13

And then later, later, I'm gonna get the white pages and crank call people. That's not what it is, it's prank. I don't know. People said crank call. Am I making that up? Y'all want to do crank calls? Uh?

Speaker 1 26:19

no, I don't know what that is. I feel like that's a northern, southern thing a little bit, maybe it is. I feel like people up north would say crank call I don't know we could be wrong on that.

Speaker 2 26:28

Tell us if we are.

Speaker 1 26:29
