Here I was sniffing around the cutters section on a slow night and stepped in here. CRAP and POO.

Hope you were wearing slippers! :lol:

Sweet looking specimen/cab. I bought a couple of very similar looking poops off Seda in Tuscon, 02 I think. My two weren't bought for and didn't show multi color fire. Only blue & purple on the breaks. Still haven't cut them up more than polish the ends. I figured the same pancake style, but not long wise due to low fire/thin bars. I've never heard of a Lapidarist who doesn't dop being arrested from fingerprint evidence.

Hey if you need a little help with that poo like maybe you have too much and wanna offload some let us know,,,,,,,,Talking about poo and dog poo at that, My stepson got a new dog ,a beagle certainly needs training pretty smart developed the taste for foam , it first chewed the car seat on the verandah (awaiting the repair at auto upholster) then the outdoor chair seats then numerous foam filled things BUT the day it got into the shed and ate some gem containers the ones with foam in them #####$$$$$$$+BUT it ate my collection of little orange diamonds I scuffed through the goddam dog poos for a few days with a stick hoping to see the sparkle of those little orange diamonds hahahaha what a joke Everything is well put out of doggies reach now. Electrical cables are the fetish lately the sidecutters and electricians tape on the ready ./ Maybe one day while prospecting in my backyard they might turn up.lol Bruce :lol: :roll:

LOL Bruce! And my thoughts exactly mehoose. I would have soaked them in water until they literally fell apart and dissolved, and then I'd carefully pour off the water and leave the diamonds in a small puddle on the bottom. Hope you find them! Still LOL! (...sorry....) :lol:

It's a terrible thing when beagles go bad.

Get some Bitter Apple spray before the poor thing electrocutes or poisons itself.

Gosh, Snoopy gone bad! Who'da thunk?! :lol:

Those hunters should be charged if anyone gets hurt by these dogs they threw away. That's scary! I wouldn't want to be outside and see them coming. Yikes! :shock:
