a side track question but asking in good faith. if medications are controlled so much by big pharma companies in terms of how much they cost how is this particular medication offered free? or is it just a situation where entities such has pharmacies/fire/police/hospital will buy in bulk and give away for free?

i could but that would probably put me in some legal jam and constitute stealing. i'll just keep calling animal control till they get annoyed and do something about it. not getting my hopes up though.

if you see human being treating their pet like that it tells you a lot about what kind of person they are so if i try to "liberate" their dog and get caught i am only inviting all kinds of legal and physical problems on myself. best to just continue to pursue legal options to try and help the dog out.

i'm not giving up on that dog. that much i know.

hmmm ok.. i think they have him inside today.. i have not seen him since coming home this morning from work but i will keep an eye on it.. i was looking into my counties rules as far as documenting to make a stronger case.. i already have one short video of the dog jumping up and down outside the back door into the backyard.. maybe it may make the case for them to take action better if i send some videos or something.

but like i said i'm not gonna give up and do what i can to a safe extent of trying to help the pup out. thanks for the link again.

thanks for the link. i will look into it. i am avoiding the police route because if i do that there is going to be some blowback and with two senior parents at home and working nights i can't risk the dog owners starting something. i assume i wont be anonymous if i go the police route so i am weighing my options.

while i want to try whatever safe methods i can to try and help the dog out i also am not looking to get jammed up trying to save it's life. i know that's a shitty thing to say but i'm just being honest about it.

one of my neighbors leaves his outside all the time. it was crying last few days. he had it out friday night when it was single digits. short of calling the police on the owners i have done everything i can to try and get some help for that dog but neither hoa or animal control wants to do shit. the sad thing is there's so many people who see what is happening and they all are dog owners so it's sad.

how that dog survives is beyond me.

dam man.. thinking of all the poor stray animals out there especially tomorrow when it drops to around the 10's. as someone who has a cat whenever winter comes around there's this sort of extra depression that kicks in cause ya can't help but feel down about so many stray animals out there especially kittens/cats. or just animals in general.

as shits and giggles i typed it in and did the zip code of the hospital i work at and while i could not find it i found one of the hospitals other location and saw how much they charge out of pocket for it and holy fucking shit.. the out of pocket prices for these things are astronomical and makes you sort of realize how fucked we all are. i assume we are all 9a to 5p or 7p to 7a types.

plenty of parking. however they do have a dedicated megabus section you can park in so to be safe i would always just print that thing they had you print when you bought the tickets, like a pass or something and just left it inside the window where someone could see.

just make sure you get there early cause megabus is wild wild west lol. i don't know if things have changed but when i was taking megabus a lot to go up to nyc it was first come first on basis to get on the bus. don't matter if you already picked your seats or what not. lol that's why i always used to refer to it as the wild wild west of busses
