COMPANIONSHIP... 

THAT'S WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT

 ~ 

 Look carefully at each picture for the cat, as it makes its way

down from the roof to the dog. Then check the explanation at the end.

The story behind those pictures is this:

Every day - at the same time - 

she waits for him.

Sometimes she barks to call him.

He comes; they rub and greet each other

and they go for a walk. They have done

this for 5 years and no, they don’t belong to the

same owners. The owners didn’t know until

neighbors seeing them together so frequently

commented to the cat’s owner, who then followed

the dog home which was a distance away - not

in a house close or next door. How it started no

one knows.

Wouldn’t it be great to have friends like this - always

There are no words needed, they just intuitively

recognize the value of each other in their lives

and act accordingly.

DeWalt Nail Gun

DeWalt Nail Gun

A must have in every home in America !

For everyone who would rather not have a gun in the house!

In view of the recent Supreme Court ruling, sales of this new product may skyrocket.

Washington thinks they are going to take away our guns, so check this out. I like it!

NAIL GUNS! AND, you don't even have to REGISTER them or have LICENSES for them!

AND, you don't have to worry about them being CONCEALED!

 ~ 

Just a LOT of good stuff to do with THIS!

 ~ 

Once in awhile something so totally cool comes out that even a guy who doesn't normally even know what he'd like for Father's Day or Christmas would immediately ask for it:

 ~ 

Thank you, DeWalt!
