Goodbye Big Red! I recall the day we chainsawed you out from under a tree; seems like only yesterday.

Erin said...

Yes, I fondly remember observing the chainsawing event. You served us well Big Red.

If I may, as original owner of Big Red, I'd like to say a few words...
Big Red, you gave me 5 great years. You served as my guidance on those dreary days into work in Mpls. and those drunken days into work in Ft. Lauderdale. Together we laughed, we cried, hell we even made love. All of this I will never forget. On that Monday when that bitch Wilma decided to interrupt our happiness, I was the first one by your side to comfort you as you were pinned under that tree. I felt as if I was about to lose my best friend. As our friends came over to rescue you, I could see the light in your headlights signaling... "It's going to be alright." To Kevin, Amy, Jess, Jer, Jonnie, and to Big Red's final family Ryan and Erin, I want to say thanks. You brought me out of a torment and misery I didn't think I could endure that day and I thank you. I hope Big Red was able to bring you the happiness he did to me. I will miss you Big Red, and as a tribute I will pour a 40 on the ground tonight so we can have one last drink together. Miss you buddy. :(
