Unless some perfect dog comes along before then. My last dog could jump and climb quite high. I made the mistake of letting M know that. In his defense, he didn't leave the yard very often, maybe 3 or so times (in 13 years)to go play in the park and once during a storm. In my defense, he was indoors during the storm and I didn't know he got out a window so therefore, I didn't know he jumped the fence...and went to the hospital, terrorizing people, not letting an armed cop near him. He was just scared to death because of the thunder. The animal control guy came in, assessed the situation, rattled a leash and my dog went running to him like he was a savior. You just have to understand the mindset of a dog. Also, the cop didn't know my dog hated guns. He'd been shot at as a puppy because his original owner let him run wild around farms and ranches and the owners of those places didn't want stray dogs scaring the livestock, so they would shoot them on sight. Okay, more than you needed to know. Anyway, big fence coming.VVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08751403913379728345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3453225790730931112.post-28281737366847261922009-01-30T18:10:00.000-05:002009-01-30T18:10:00.000-05:00M, I AM on your side!

You may have to give up your band room to house the guppies and their accessories. Someone will have to do a partial water change on the tank every week, and feed and supervise the fish every day. For all the work you put into the damned fish, they NEVER cuddle up to you or show their appreciation. Fish are lousy companions!<BR/><BR/>I won't go into the advantages a puppy will offer you, as I'm sure K has already adequately handled this angle.<BR/><BR/>I'd be willing to bet that within a week you will be head over heels in love, with a furry, loving, comical puppy. This love will only grow in the coming years as the puppy becomes an integral member of your family. <BR/><BR/>Any takers on the bid of 1 cuddly, loving, faithful PUPPY?tshsmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08637635755654078408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3453225790730931112.post-1592745742497199022009-01-30T10:12:00.000-05:002009-01-30T10:12:00.000-05:00You win. 4 guppies.You win. 4 guppies.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3453225790730931112.post-59416795468568907792009-01-30T10:05:00.000-05:002009-01-30T10:05:00.000-05:00You're evading the question.You're evading the question.VVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08751403913379728345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3453225790730931112.post-26497857109608072132009-01-30T10:00:00.000-05:002009-01-30T10:00:00.000-05:00Has anyone else noticed that a post all about "ang...Has anyone else noticed that a post all about "angel hairs" has morphed into a discussion about a dog?

I will only say this once, so make sure it sticks. They are _not_ gray hairs, they are not gray, they are not dark, they are not wiry. They are white and shiny, just like a halo, therefore, they are angel hairs. Implying/typing that they might be gray hairs is a very serious afront, I think you owe me two German Shepherd puppies to make up for it.VVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08751403913379728345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3453225790730931112.post-54717903805606435432009-01-28T09:19:00.000-05:002009-01-28T09:19:00.000-05:00Angel hairs?
