Rottweilers

Why were Rottweilers so popular in the 90's? And this was before DMX came out too. I remember everbody had a Rottweiller back when I was a kid.

And it wasn't because people loved dogs because some of these dogs were mistreated. I remember my stepfather owning one and showing him off by having him jump back and forth over the chain link fence that was supposed to protect our rundown apartment building.

Well, Max (that was his name), made the jump quite a few times but had to retire after ripping his balls off on the last attempt.

I don't think my stepfather felt bad either. Anyway, someone ended up stealing Max. The people who stole him actually had the audacity to walk around the neighborhood with him. So one day my stepfather saw these people walking along and he calls out to Max. Max turns his head and runs to him. My stepfather then took him home.

I actually think this story is a complete and total lie. I think he leased Max to these people for some crack. But that's just the way my mind works.

Reminds me of the time he took my homemade tapes of Living Single and Martin and sold them. He made someone very happy that day...I miss those damn tapes. And he sold the Earth Wind and Fire eight tracks!! How could you do that?
