Get well soon.


If things keep going this way I bet Obama introduces his Ecomomic Plan as The New New Deal.

Yes, they will, thought they may have to draw the line at expensive surgeries and tests a little sooner.

Some still manage to buy smokes when on unemployment, it's a crazy world out there.

Shotgun FTW! You don't need to practice your aim, 'cause you don't aim a shotgun... you point it.

Just need to get me a shotgun.

Most of IDXX revenue comes from agricultural/food animal testing equipment and supplies.....people need to eat.

And yes....people spend on pets good times or not.
