a tenth of the cash we're wasting in Iraq, and provided mental health
services for dog owners.

In the movie "Monty Python and the Holy Grail", do you recall the scene with
the peasants kneeling in a field, pointlessly slogging gobs of mud from one
place to another? :-) Future dog owners.



If those owners clued in, they would buy a good 'pooper scooper'.
I bought a cheaper version, but it lasted out two dogs. No way I was
taking a chance soiling my hands with doggie doo.
note: I could use the grocery store plastic bags with mine...rather
than the expensive original equipment variety.

Regardless of the tools, I think it's weird. Most normal people are happy
when they can finally stop changing a kid's diapers. Then, they go out and
get a dog.

If you had even a little common sense, you'd
realize where your type of
behavior leads. At the very least, you wind up in
a living hell, with
angry neighbors keying each others cars, smashing
windows, and taking
each other to court. And sometimes you find that
the neighbor who's
dog you poisoned is a whacko too and he responds
with physical violence
and someone winds up dead.

I have a hate-hate relationship with dogs. Too
many years of
trying to vaporize the ones that thought my garden
was an outhouse. I can't
understand why anyone would put up with their
smell, their hair, their
noise, and having to walk the silly animals when
it's 6 degrees outside
(assuming they walk them, as opposed to letting
them roam free).

We always found it very enjoyable walking our dog. In the bad weather
they get you up off the comfy sofa at least twice a day and help you get
much needed exercise.

Don, you're responding to my shadow, the guy who wishes he was me. :-) But
still....if it requires a dog to tow you off the couch, you need more than a
dog. :-)

Of course you have. Look at the formatting, and then the headers, etc etc.
It's the guy who can't get him mommy to spread her legs for him often
enough, so in his free time, he does what you've seen here.

I can't imagine why anyone would live where it ever gets down to 6
degrees.

And I can't imagine why anyone would live where it stays over 80 with
high humidity. You'll never hear me complain about the weather in
January around here.

It was a marital error. Five years and I'll be out of here, one zone warmer.
As much as I dislike winter, I'd miss the bulbs that require cold in order
to function correctly.
