....getting sued..

My morning can't even begin to compare with Mark's bad day. There has been no danger to life and limb....but I still want to rant and rave here. Maybe I'll feel better, and my temper will calm down.
Nasty night with the head last night. Only three hits....but, they were pretty uncomfortable ones, no need for descriptions...ya'll all know. My youngest son called, he was staying the night in town at his fraternity house. Woke up to the sheriff banging on the door....groggily trying to get to the door, my daughter beats me to the door....I hear the sheriff say "I have some bad news.....", I start panicking, thinking something has happened to my son....Whitney just starts crying...thinking it's her brother....major adrenaline flowing….sheesh.
Well, my &#%*$)_@ neighbor had shot one of our dogs. The dog had roamed over into the neighbors pasture....the damn neighbor couldn't even do it right and shoot him properly....he just left him in pain and shredded. We do shoot dogs out here that attack and bring down calves.....my dog was just chewing on one that had been dead for a couple of days...that's what dogs do. This same neighbor also poisoned my rottweiler last year. This man is a townie who moved to the country, and doesn’t have a clue.
So…..I call my oldest son to come out and help us get the dog loaded to go to the vet (none of us had the heart to finish him off), the dog is in pain and very heavy, we have to muzzle him because he’s hurting so bad, when dogs are hurting, they don’t like to be messed with….well, he bit the hell out of my son. We’ll just make it a multipurpose trip to town….vet….ER…etc.
My friendly neighbor just left my front porch after telling me that we are going to be sued for the loss of the calf, damages, and mental stress. Trust me….by the time I’m through with him…..he will be justified in suing me for mental stress. My son has already said he’s going to go write something with Round-Up in the guys nice, pretty front lawn.
Well, it’s just now noon…..can’t wait to see what the rest of the day brings……LOL
Wish my husband was at home…..sheesh.
I said this story didn’t involve life and limb…..but, it might involve my neighbors life and limbs (if I can just figure out how!)
Rant over....sorry! 
Tracey

Tracey - just think like a townee...
Start thinking law suits and what he should have (or should not) have done
Normal people don't do this. Townees of this sort do.
But if your son is going to be apain in the ass nuisance to that neighbour, STOP HIM.
Them townees have umpteen million little tricks up their sleeves , it being about the only thing they do have. Any aggro your side, they are likely to win.
Be careful, sister, and let the legal eagles kill EACH other. Just sue him!

Forget the legal eagles...just let Jonny handle it! 
He'll be so far out of town before the guy even knows what hit him!
Tracey, sorry to hear about all the crap you're going through right now. It seems like sometimes everything just hits at once and you just want to scream "ENOUGH ALREADY!!!". Hope things start looking up soon. Was the vet able to do anything for the dog or did he have to put him down? I'm so sorry!
I'm going to try to get some recipes over to you today via email....it kept slipping my mind.
Take care of yourself!

I agree with Ave, restrain your son. That is just about the best way of digging a deeper hole.
Also, how in the heck can he claim mental anguish? Was he married to the darn calf? It's a cow for goodnes sake! You eat 'em, not go to bed with 'em.
I really hate those types, the townies that move out the country and think that whatever they think is best. We always seem to have a new group moving out here and complaining about the local gun club. I mean, the thing has been here since before I was born and THEY moved next to it. Now they have to complain because they hear gunshots ... go figure?

Check your state laws, but it's likely your townie neighbor had the right to shoot your dog for "running" his livestock, BUT....
Ironically, the townie may have stepped over the line by NOT killing your dog...shooting the dog and allowing it to suffer might be considered animal cruelty...check out the law in your area and maybe you can remind him of this next time he threatens to sue...
OR, seeing as how you live in rural Texas, you may may just want to follow your neighbor down to the bar some night, and then you tell all the good ol' boys in there how your neighbor shot your dog but didn't have the decency to finish the job, just let that poor animal suffer.... try to leave before you hear glass breaking.

Cathy, want to come down and have dinner with us? I can think of some things to feed him besides just the dead calf......
Catlind, sweetie, please come play...we won't start the party without you .
Tommy, the bar trick is looking entirely plausible..... ;D
Mark, as always...you're a damn good buddy. Thanks for the PF thoughts.

OH Yeah! Tommy has the right idea, sic PETA on him. After all he was holding that poor calf against its free will AND he intentionly injured your dog and caused grievous pain & suffering to you, your family, and your pup. (BTW, sorry to hear your dog died)
Hey, I haven't had a good chicken fried steak for years. I think that's one of those Texas requirements for residency, right? Gotta make it back down to Texas sometime again...
