ANIMAL CRUELTY IN TUCSON

SCUBA-
Freakin unbelievable!!!! Did you pups read about that idiot in Tucson who was busted for dragging and beating his little puppy who didn’t want to walk on a hot sidewalk? What in the heck is wrong with him?

KEIKO-
Oh, that just makes me so angry. http://www.kold.com/ news said the pads on the little pup’s feet were burned badly. I’d like to make that guy stand on 130 degree concrete in his bare feet. He'd be whining in no time.

NORMAN-
Thankfully the little guy is gonna be o.k. But I can’t believe someone could be so cruel to do that to a little puppy that couldn’t even defend itself yet.


TOBY-
I double-dog-dare him to try that with me! I’d take care of his punk-ass and we’ll see just how much of a tough guy he really is. GRRRR!!!!

SAYING GOODBYE TO A GOOD MAN

Wow pups, that was a tearjerker, Officer Erik Hite’s funeral. I tell you, when they played Amazing Grace on the pipes, I nearly lost it.

KEIKO
I know what you mean; I broke down when the bugler sounded Taps.

NORMAN
Yeah, did you see the Riderless Horse? That brought me to tears.

TOBY
What about when the pipes played Danny Boy? I couldn’t hold back, I had to cry.

On June 10, 2008, United States Air Force Veteran and Tucson Police Officer Erik Hite was laid to rest in Tucson, Arizona. Over 3000 of his family, friends, fellow Airmen and Police Officers attended the service with his final motorcade stretching over three miles. Many Tucsonans lined the streets as the procession past braving the 100 plus degree temperature to bid farewell to a fallen hero who gave his life in the line of duty.
