Re: What does your username stand for?
ohh boy ...<br /><br />A buddy of mine Dave picked up a registered Yellow Lab some years back from the shelter to replace the need for a dog around the house for his wife after their house dog passed.<br /> <br />anywho .. the new Labs name was Barlow. <br /><br />Lets just say Barlow wasn't the 'sharpest tool in the shed' but, He was real kind and good mannered. <br /><br />He was kennel bound most of his life so Barlow looked like a beer barrel with a tail for a tap and well... oh geeze, Barlow was dumb as a box of rocks... hardly knew his name and didn't come when called.<br /><br />We tried hunting Barlow.. but it was just too much.. wasn't worth the hassle...too many bad habits. <br /><br />Dave has a big place and the group of friends we all are came out to have fun helping with fall clean up and drink his shop fridge dry of beer and anything else we managed to find layin' around .. *hick*<br /><br />The whole day Barlow got in the way mostly but, was around and didn't stray .. we all poked a little fun at the rollie-pollie but it was in good fun.<br /><br />After the work was done and the grill was cool we sat out in the shop suckin' a few after dinner barley sodas when the new owner of Barlow (my buddy Dave) looked at the dog and said,<br /><br />"Ya know ... Barlow sorta reminds me of you!" ... <br /><br />I chuckled and said,"WHAT?!".<br /><br />Dave replied, "Yea! Well.. you're both blonde, dumb as H#LL, over-wieght, can't hunt worth a sh/t and don't come when called."......<br /><br />---<br /><br />..thing is I'm not over-wieght...and it STUCK!
