Nickelback was formed in the early 1990s as a cover band called "Village Idiot" by brothers Mike and Chad Kroeger with their cousin Brandon Kroeger and Ryan Peake.

Was the victim in my first ever dog attack on Monday. Neighbors' dog who normally runs the fence barking when I run by with my smaller dog was able to paw open the gate to their driveway at the same time one of the owner's was backing out (usually not an issue because they have a secondary gate there. Charged at us and I was able to pick up my dog just in time. Unfortunately when I spun around it got in one good bite in on my left calf. Left a couple deep puncture wounds, but backed off when I yelled and kicked in its direction. Currently limping around as I can't put much weight on my leg and won't be able to run or surf for 3-4 weeks. Big bummer, but we have good insurance and the neighbors have offered to cover any expenses associated with the bite. Surprisingly it wasn't that scary, but more of a "damn, well this is about to happen" moment. Glad it wasn't worse, but still sucks.

Question for my DBD friends: do you know what the "Q" texture means (often used in describing east Asian food)
