Northampton?
Okay we better stop line of "do you know, etc"
:)
Its nice to know YOU know where I know :)
Branch of my family are Northampton people. Also I have Leicester side.
Aa a matter of "veracity" of what I say, do you know what happened to the rookery at Delapre that that golf club was trying to chop down? I just thought of it.
Can we start another "Pep and what he means to us" thread????
Pep, I must go out. I'll post later for fun.

Saints, that's that team in New Orleans right ;)

(oddly enough there is a Kenilworth a few hours drive from where *I* live in the states.)

Honest truth a seagull has just made off with half a rack of ribs off my barbecue
Crows call me by name and have invited me to join their "murder"
Raccoons cruise my woodland like the muggers they are
A stag has decided my beach is HIS beach
A Lady fox (the vixen!) has started to raise her single family of reprobates and societal psycopaths in my rhodendron bushes
A largish bear has employed various felons to rip up my lawn
My compost bin has been overturned by nefarious chipmunks
A snake has read Genesis and is very tempting
I should eat the water rat before he eats me
The heron has told me I must pay him fifty fish a week.

And its raining.

The saints are a rugby team.

Furries and all off shoots or what evers basically bring to my mind people who dig all animals for what ever reason.

Anyway this is a good site to put on your mail feeds.

Sounds like if you have a gun you have the makings of a good mixed game BBQ there.

You must all be troglodites, living under the roundabouts! (You can go round and round MK forever and not find a sign of habitation.) I did find a sports centre some years ago - but even that seemed more in Bletchley.

People do live at Northampton - I can vouch for that. I once went on a training course there. It's not really north though, is it? Well, it's further north than Southampton, I suppose - but it's more, midlands really

I went on a training course in Kenilworth last year too. Come to think of it, I recognise most places either because of a training venue, a sports centre or roundabouts. I'm beginning to feel a bit sad now. :(

I thought Saints were the Southampton football team (soccer).

I was making a joke... they are also an american Football team, but I knew better ... and there's like a dozen of so Kenilworth's in the states... the one I live near is tiny (it's in Utah, there's another in illinois, North Carolina, and... well you get the idea... I just though it was funny to play clueless american.

I'm not sure the "self defense" clause applies in SL... but maybe it should =)

a furry here to tell
09-02-2009 21:45
furries want to be treated as human cus we own the body structure and personality of them,
PS. a furry is only a person that either, likes animals (illigal beastiality) im not one of thos but i know there are some, or someone feeling intuned with an animal, its a complet fandom, nothing more than something we find an intrest in

I know, don't humour the necropost, but oh well.

First of all, bestiality laws vary by location, and it's not illegal everywhere. Not even in every US state, only 27, with two more in the works. Sweden, Switzerland, Mexico, Hungary, Germany, Finland, Belgium, Cambodia, and Denmark are all legal on the country level, and Australia and a few others, like the US, are based on the region/state. (For more, see http://tinyurl.com/mppusp )

Secondly, furry fandom applies explicitly to anthropomorphic animal figures. That is to say, animals with human characteristics, such as personality and/or structure.(Or humans with animal characteristics, for some) The only deviation here is that some also consider human/animal morphs to also be in the label, though this still wouldn't 'count' as bestiality, since it's technically still human in mind. Most furries actually aren't into bestiality (Or, at least not openly).

Awwwww! I am on the road and far far away from that house and saw this thread and this post caught my eye and now I think of my sweet "Gully" and all the fun I had with him this summer when I cooked lamb and ribs and mussels and lobster and steaks and he shared them with me.
Awwwwwwwww!
He was as cute as a little crabby-boy in a nest of seaweed. :)

I mean, they are playing animals that stand and talk. If I treat them like an animal (as in pulling a gun on them), they act all offended.

I guess if I got to know them, I might find them swell...but I really don't think is a good idea to befriend a predator (wolves, dragons, bunnies with fangs), and I feel its poss psychologically harmful to have a conversation with potential food (cows).

Dogs would be an exception. Dogs coexist well with hunter-humans. But no-one is a dog here. Why is that?


I guess animals do get offended when you point a gun at them. Can you blame them?

Psychologically harmful to talk to a cow? I like cows and they can be charming conversationalists in a barn late at night. And I'm not crazy.

"Hunter-humans" - I think we dropped that masquerade about 10 thousand years ago.
