One day of off-roading in the foothills and mountains can leave that much dirt on your car.
True, but...all those cars had been off roading??

I has a doppleganger! [eta] My forum avatar eyes pic has rolled out the back of my flickr page or I would give you the link. You can probably just right click the eyes and get the picture properties here. You can be my cousin. Identical cousins. ![]() ![]() They walk alike, they talk alike... |

From my in-box ..... For the last time, there is no secret exit from the bathroom! If, by some miracle, I beat you there and manage to get the door shut, it is not necessary to claw, whine, meow, try to turn the knob or get your paw under the edge in an attempt to open the door. I must exit through the same door I entered. Also, I have been using the bathroom for years - canine/feline attendance is not required.... LOL. Great letter, Argus. This item really made me guffaw, as this is exactly what my sister/brother-in-law's Shar-Pei does every single time I use one of their bathrooms. |

Borderline necroposting here -- but SOME of us have to work. Even some of us guys. /me chuckles. I do the exact same thing. I land behind the giant robot, then hike a quarter mile or whatever up to the hangout. This has the added advantage of allowing time for people to rez. There's few things more disconcerting than chatting with invisible people. You know...that's a great idea, Weston. I had my LM point on the deck and I'm always waiting for the invisible people to re-materialize. |

From my in-box FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE PETS, THIS IS A TRUE STORY. FOR THOSE THAT DON'T, IT IS A TRUE STORY. I LOL'd! ![]() And yes, it is VERY true. Unfortunately, my cat doesnt sleep with me. She only comes onto the bed when her bowl is empty. Then she places all TWENTY TWO POUNDS of herself on your bladder till you wake up & fill her dish. She knows when she's waken me enough to do so. To prove it she uses my testicles as a springboard to go running to the kitchen. AH! And to show she loves me, and my belongings, she shows it by rubbing her face against whatever precariously stacked objects are nearby- magazines, computer parts, anything that you don't want knocked over. _____________________

From my in-box FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE PETS, THIS IS A TRUE STORY. FOR THOSE THAT DON'T, IT IS A TRUE STORY. The following was found posted very low on a refrigerator door. Dear Dogs and Cats: The dishes with the paw prints are yours and contain your food. The other dishes are mine and contain my food. Placing a paw print in the middle of my plate and food does not stake a claim for it becoming your food and dish, nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing in the slightest. The stairway was not designed by NASCAR and is not a racetrack. Racing me to the bottom is not the object. Tripping me doesn't help because I fall faster than you can run. I cannot buy anything bigger than a king sized bed. I am very sorry about this. Do not think I will continue sleeping on the couch to ensure your comfort, however.. Dogs and cats can actually curl up in a ball when they sleep. It is not necessary to sleep perpendicular to each other, stretched out to the fullest extent possible. I also know that sticking tails straight out and having tongues hanging out on the other end to maximize space is nothing but sarcasm. For the last time, there is no secret exit from the bathroom! If, by some miracle, I beat you there and manage to get the door shut, it is not necessary to claw, whine, meow, try to turn the knob or get your paw under the edge in an attempt to open the door. I must exit through the same door I entered. Also, I have been using the bathroom for years - canine/feline attendance is not required. The proper order for kissing is: Kiss me first, then go smell the other dog or cat's butt. I cannot stress this enough. Finally, in fairness, dear pets, I have posted the following message on the front door: TO ALL NON-PET OWNERS WHO VISIT AND LIKE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT OUR PETS: (1) They live here. You don't. (2) If you don't want their hair on your clothes, stay off the furniture. That's why they call it 'fur'-niture. (3) I like my pets a lot better than I like most people. (4) To you, they are animals. To me, they are adopted sons/daughters who are short, hairy, walk on all fours and don't speak clearly. Remember, dogs and cats are better than kids because they: (1) eat less, (2) don't ask for money all the time, (3) are easier to train, (4) normally come when called, (5) never ask to drive the car, (6) don't smoke or drink, (7) don't want to wear your clothes, ( ![]() (9) don't need a gazillion dollars for college and (10) if they get pregnant, you can sell their children ... _____________________

On a sad note:
In Pittsburgh, over the weekend, a 5 yr old boy was shot being used as a Human Shield by an 18 yr old during a drug deal gone bad. YET- there is a BIG $5000 reward for any info to stop dog fighting while nothing is really being done for the death of a 5 year old. While I hope those responsible for the death of this child suffer agony & pain beyond human imagine.... What is everyone's take on this? SHould a DOG'S life take precendence over a CHILD??? Has society become this desensitized? And yes, I have a 5 year old Niece & 2 yr old Nephew. Harm them & you'll know what Hell is all about. _____________________

Has society become this desensitized? And yes, I have a 5 year old Niece & 2 yr old Nephew. Harm them & you'll know what Hell is all about. I find it quite painful that there are people who endanger children and get them killed and also that there are people who run dog fights for fun and profit. If I were in a burning building and had to choose between saving a human or a member of another species I would save the human without question. But I'd like for humans to reach the level of civilization where the well being of all living things is important (service dogs probably more than cockroaches). I imagine the child in your story would still be alive if the drugs you mentioned were legally and cheaply available, with no profit incentive for criminals. And if the people who use them were given appropriate help instead of persecution. I'm also pretty sure this child was not born to any kind of life of privilege and that yes as a whole our society is QUITE desensitized to the suffering of poor, uneducated, desperate people and their children. If I had $5000 to spend on making the world a better place I know it would be hard to decide what to do. _____________________

Unless I'm mistaken - and I rarely am when it comes to chocolate - it's a 3-pack of Cadbury Eggs! (The Breakfast of Champions.) *laughs* Your comment made me think of Prince Humperdink in the "Princess Bride." |
