getting a dog
Some people are going to be afraid of your dog no matter what. I had a pal at Oxford who was phobic about both dogs and cats. He cowered against the wall when a cat came near and again cringed back when a cute little Jack Russell-type came bounding down the road. Another time when my little Tosa...- Kempt

getting a dog
berners ******* own Berners have an average lifespan of 7-8 years, just enough time to become extremely attached and watch them go. They are also a very "trendy" breed right now which means some people are unscrupulously trying to make a buck. You have to look long and hard to find a line and...- Kempt

Vomit-worthy.
YMMV, but I think just dismissing them (or any other suggested green idea) . Every CFL I've ever used I've found inferior to traditional filament bulbs, and I've spent a lot of time bathed in fluorescent light, it's not just "being familiar" with one or another. It's what I prefer, to each his...- Kempt

Vomit-worthy.
How are CFL's worthless? What do you view as being more harmful to the environment, a little extra CO2 from the additional fossil fuels necessary to generate the electricity to power a normal light bulb or a **** ton of CFLs that don't put off very good light and contain elemental mercury...- Kempt

What places do you have absolutely no desire to visit?
I have it on good authority that the Chuck E Cheese establishments in Canada SERVE BEER. Talk about two wrongs making a right. The last time I was in Boise, Idaho the Jack in the Box served beer. I'm not sure if they would give it to you through the drive-thru though. I have it on good authority...- Kempt

Anyone else feel for janitors and others with similar jobs?
My first job out of college with double degrees (Biochem/Neuroscience) was as a delivery driver because I didn't feel like doing research anymore and had no desire to pursue a BS. Some people enjoy their "menial" jobs and get over the prestige **** right quick. A lot of people that are...- Kempt

lefty's random dog thread.
Y'know, the more I've been thinking about this post, the more disturbing I find it. I mean, here we have an extremely "natural" dog, similar in size and appearance to wolves, jackals and coyotes, one of the most athletic of all dogs, a breed that is still very largely a working breed (and...- Kempt

^The one English Cocker I had any experience with seemed like a very nice dog indeed--a total contrast to all the American Cockers I've had any experience with. All of them were nasty customers...although I suppose there must be some few nice ones out there, somewhere. As I have mentioned...- Kempt

All those things you mentioned about the foxhound are true, again why they aren't such great indoor companion only dogs. A lot of the scent hounds fall into this category IMO. However, if you're a bloodhound owner for example and you have the willingness to work with your dog and train it to...- Kempt

While working dogs can make decent pets, I don't believe it should be encouraged to the extent that it is now. FWIW, I know plenty of people that breed decent dogs and make a good living doing so. I agree and I should be more specific and also put my posts into perspective. I think far too...- Kempt

The Dogo man is obviously a very conscientious breeder, but frankly, a lot of people in the dog breeding game are unethical greed-heads. I think this is particularly true in the rare-breed orbit, where people often charge ridiculous prices (and frequently have leftover youngsters they couldn't...- Kempt

RR without a ridge and a mismarked Dogo are two different things. If you reread the article he culled 2 and 3 by neutering them: In this litter A: Pup 1 ended-up bilaterally deaf and proven as such, so he was PTS and buried at 2 months of age, after being fed, vaccined, dewormed, and BAER tested...- Kempt

Oh, didn't realize blind people and Dick Cheney did that much hunting. Christ, how blind do you have to be to not see your own dog because its ass is black? Hey I'm not saying I agree with it lol, but pretty much every sporting dog/hound/terrier that is predominately white is so because some...- Kempt

Are you saying the colour of a dog's coat might affect it's ability to accomplish some working task? They breed color out of dogs to make them easier to see in the field and so you don't accidentally shoot them.- Kempt

Don't think it was a diatribe as much as him simply pointing out how difficult it is breed decent animals. Someone asked why Dobermanns were so screwed up. The answer is that very few breeders will kill a puppy for a fault when that same puppy can command thousands of dollars. lefty You mean...- Kempt

That guy's 1,600 word diatribe could be summed up with "Breeding purebred dogs for purpose, type, and temperment is expensive. Breeders almost never recoup cost of breeding in price." This has been the case for a long time, it's not some revelation. If you're a potential dog owner...- Kempt

What places do you have absolutely no desire to visit?
Well I can speak for myself and many others when I say that it isn't about obscure places rather than a place you can just enjoy a little easier because there's less gift shops, people drawing portraits and charicatures (the Charles bridge, for example, is completely ruined by this kind of...- Kempt

What places do you have absolutely no desire to visit?
I don't have interest in countries that will look similar to others. i.e. why visit Iraq if its not too different from Iran. Mississippi and Alabama, same difference. Bolivia, Uruguay, Paraguay, etc. I've been to Costa Rica so I have no desire to see Nicaragua or Panama. So when I say I want to...- Kempt

What places do you have absolutely no desire to visit?
My desire to visit (and my friend's mentioning of Prague) was mostly in relation to the architecture, fwiw. Whether a city is "played out" doesn't make a bit of difference to me. I don't care if there's zero tourists or only tourists if I'm going to a place to see...- Kempt
