Moms bought Leah seven years ago from a registered breeder when I was still living in Portland. It was at a time when there was a spate of house burglaries that a family friend recommended the breed for its watchdog capabilities.
Seven years later we love the Ox more than we could have imagined and when I look at what it costs to keep her fed for a month I think she may be the real burglar.
The truth is that folks are scared of her sheer size. She is vigilant, well between meals. Still, the breed is an amalgamation of bulldog, bull terrier, boxer, and who knows what. It is a dog bred primarily for guarding mines and the name boerbol is an Afrikaner derived label that means farmer's (boer) bull.
If you make your way to the local SPCA you will be saddened by the number of these dogs that are discarded or given up because folks can't afford to keep them.
AnyHowze back to Tony who is the genius among the Kimberley bras from back in the day. He got me thinking that my assertion that Leah was a "purebred boerbol" was in essence an oxymoron (incongruous and contradictory term).
So, given that I am chief among the moron clan I have decided to make an oxymoron list (in no particular order) and invite you to add your additions (ummm that would not be an oxymoron, no? A redundancy, maybe? :0)
Whatever ne, here goes:
1. She is an advanced beginner. 2. She has two adult children.
3. Post-apartheid. 4. Abundant poverty. 5. American culture.
6. Birth control. 7. Ethnic blacks/whites. 8. He is in the majority minority.
9. Obama is consistently inconsistent.
10. Every scientific study must have a constant variable.
11. Certain risk. 12. Controlled chaos. 13. World music.
14. Completely destroyed. 15. Current history. 16. Daily special.
17. Detailed summary. 18. Dry ice. 9. Dry wine. 20. Different pattern.
21. Doubting believers. 22. Doing nothing. 23. Deliberate mistake.
24. Forgotten memories. 25. Found missing.
26. The US is fighting for peace. 27. Free with purchase.
28. Ridwan uses graphic language. 29. They are a group of individuals.
30. Giant dwarf. 31. Half dead. 32. Honest thief. 33. Halfway done.
34. Almost true. 35. False reality. 36. Huge shortage.
37. Hyundai Excel (sorry Tony :0) 38. Hollow point.
39. Happily married. 40. Insane logic. 41. Lower inflation.
42. Obama is a liberal conservative. 43. Living fossil.
44. She is skinny fat. 45. Married life. 46. Marital bliss.
47. Near future. 48. I'm doing nothing much.
49. Old news. 50. Plastic glasses.
So, it would be awfully nice if you added a few to the list.
Onward!
