RE: You asked for a build thread!

DONT TRY. We dun wanna read your obit in the papers: " Owner maul'd by irate dogs " (insert spoof obit text here)
Heck, makes me think of my nephew's dog - he EATS stuffed doggie toys. YES - EATS. I was sitting on the staircase watching him while waiting for Idjit to get ready Wednesday. He gnaw'd a hole in the mallard duck toy he had, and began eating the white stuffing. When he wasn't trying to tear the feet off, he was holding it by the neck... If I reached for it, I got growled at; not that he'd bite me, but more of a " No, ya fool, I don't wanna play fetch! " growl. He'd already devoured the large frog toy he'd had a few weeks earlier (I'd seen stuffing from it all over the living room) and I assume this was the replacement.
Bad habit though... as I know he's destroyed or otherwise rendered unwearable at ~least~ three pair of Idjits shoes. Day he goes after the 'good' ones for work, I'm gonna end up laughing so hard I'll collapse a lung or break a rib or three. Heck, the spilled tea incident I noted put me in a coughing fit that took me a few minutes to get my breath back to normal!
But I agree, that ~is~ a wonderful costume. *evil grin* gonna get nephew to look at it, mebbe the dog'll put him in hospital for a week, and gimme a holiday!
