Journal red5's Journal: Kyie-Kyie Olympics 14

Journal by red5
My dog is doing just fine now that she's been to the vet. Turns out her tooth was split down the middle. They couldn't do a root cannel they had to pull it. It was a mid-back one on the top so it wasn't all that important, and she doesn't seem to miss it.

When I picked her up from the vet she was already feeling much better. I was expecting her to still be under the effect of the anesthesia. She was still not 100%, but she was a lot better than yesterday or this morning.

On the way to my sisters house we passed by IN-N-OUT. We ordered a double-double for my sister, a 4x4 for me and another 4x4 with no cheese for Kylie. Yes, my sister named her dog after that cheesy auzie pop star from the '80.

We took them all to-go and ate them at my sisters house. We played "Kyie-Kyie Olympics" with Kylie's 4x4. The game works like this. You get a bunch of hamburgers. Each person takes 1/2 of them. You stand about 40 feet apart. Then you have the dog run back and forth between the two of you and give him/her 1 hamburger each time. It's sort of like a dog biathlon (eating|sprinting). It's a fun game dogs just love it.

  • I thought you were a suitable friend due to your 'Six Degrees of cmdrtaco' game, but your wanky behavior proves otherwise. Please don't post journals whining about your gimpy dog. It's a waste of everyones time.
    • And you're a fucking wanker. Who gives a shit if he wants to write about his dog? Is red5 writing the journal for your edification?

      • If you look at this guy's info, his whole existence is to troll....and he's doing a damn fine job of it. Oh well, some people are just like that...

        Anyway, I'm glad to hear that red5's dog is doing much better! I've heard of In-N-Out burgers, but we don't seem to have them here in the big city of Dallas. From what I understand, we are definitely missing out! Glad your dog likes 'em...that is definite sign of improvement!!:)

          In a nutshell, yeah, you have not had a good fast food meal unless you've had In-N-Out. They are the mecca, the holy grail, if you will.

          If God came down from heaven, and said, blessed by this burger that burger would be In-N-Out. I really only go there for the fries though.

          I really miss them, my old apartment in San Jose was about 1500 feet from an In-N-Out. 2 minute walk and I could endulge... *sigh*

          Good news on your puppy, red5. Great game btw, sounds pretty entertaining.
          • You have not had good fast food until you've eaten at Fazoli's. Perhaps In-N-Out has the best burgers/fries, but you just can't beat Fazoli's as a concept: Fast [American] Italian food with unlimited breadsticks if you dine in. Yummy.

              Where is this Fazoli's that you speak of? Sounds pretty good. Of course Fast Food isn't Fast Food without burgers.
              • I used to stop by Fazoli's whenever I passed through Ankeny, Iowa, because that was the only one that I knew of. Last time I was there, I picked up their location guide and found out that there is one 20 minutes from me (yes, driving there is worth it). Looking at their website [fazolis.com], it appears that they are mostly a Southern/Midwest thing, with a couple sprinkled around the southwest and California. Too bad. It's the most wonderful concept. If you eat there, a person comes around with a basket of hot breadsticks every couple of minutes in case you want more.
                • That sucks, only locations are in southern California, closer to red5 than myself. I rarely ever go to So. California. However, my mom is going back to a small town down there for a few months so maybe that's a good excuse to go visit :)

            It's funny that you'd say it like that...
            If you look at the bottom of the soda cups at In-N-Out you'll see "John 3:16" printed around the inside bottom ring. There are other bible verses named on other printed material of theirs; I think the burger wrappers and french fry containers are also both marked. I've heard that despite it's success, the bussiness is still family owned, so I guess it's their right to print whatever they like on their wrappers, but I've always been a little weary of them because of it.

            There's also the thing about In-N-Out employees working 14-hour days that sorta bugs me...

            If they didn't have the best burgers in the county, I wouldn't go near that place! As it is, my order goes something like this: "I'll have a cheeseburger meal with a side of christian dogma..."

            ( /me really needs to buck up and quit eating cows )

              I was aware, kind of a bit of a hidden message for the real in-n-outers.

              It's actually family owned by a group of Mormons. The bible verses on drinks, wrappers, etc. come from either the bible or the book of Mormon.

              Cows like it, haven't you ever read Restaurant at the End of the Universe?

    • The whole idea of user journals is that you can write about whatever you like. I find it kind of cool that red5 was writing about his dog. If you don't like it, write some better JEs.

      "Please don't post journals whining about your gimpy dog."
      Heh heh. He said "gimpy".

      And you're not doing much good as a troll, either. Half your comments haven't even been modded down and a couple even have high scores!

  • too funny. biathlon. mmph! next time i go visiting a dog owner i'm gonna have to convince them to try this one out. i suspect that cats will not go for it though...
  • I used to live in San Diego. I got In-n-Out all the time. Now, since I live in Atlanta, I can no longer get it. So, everytime you write about it, you bring up painful memories of really really good food I can no longer get. So, for the love of all that is holy, please refrain from mentioning said-unmentionable.

    BTW, there *is* a Fazolis about 5 miles from my house. Best breadsticks in the business. Otherwise, the food is ok.
