They are out there. I married one. They do exist. 13 yrs so far and we are still in love. Don't give up. Don't settle.

You just knew Scalia would come in handy at some point.

Scalia is a wingnut in many ways, but when it comes to practicing the rule of law as it has been decided, he is very firm that you must follow it. Even if it’s something you disagree with: the law is the law.

Yep. It seems pretty simple to me. If your personal beliefs prevent you from doing your job as a public servant and simultaneously trample on the rights of others, you need to resign. And ASAP.

Wow, he was on the lamb for a long time there.

I don’t know if you’re mother smoked, but if she did, I can imagine her lighting one up right at that moment. That exactly what my mother would have done right at that moment. A little reward for being right and with bears.

I just burst into laughter in front of awaiting room full of people because I could SEE my mum’s face as I read that.
Everyone is being so funny on this thread. Great job everyone!

And always the rule “One toy out at a time. Put the toy away before you get out another one.”

I think you’re totally right, and I see both sides (the elite and the proud participant) in one person, in my own son. He is an excellent soccer player, always has been, and plays for his high school and for a good club team. He wants badly to win every game, watches his diet and goes to extra workouts, gets angry at…

Same. The biggest drama of the summer was when two minis (mare and gelding) who had been together since birth, moved in and the mare DUMPED her gelding for the resident fat pinto pony.

Dude. Ditto to all.
It got out of hand when we would start looping in guests on it.
“So this is Bud. His best friend is Pilson over there, though they’ve kind of been on the outs this week.”

Anyone who has actually spent time around horses knows this. Not trying to diminish Briard’s work, since I’m sure her insights extend beyond this, but it’s painfully obvious that horses are bitchy, clichy creatures if you watch them for about five minutes. My 4H friends always used the term “mare-ish” as a stand-in…

When I was stationed in Germany, I would go to volksmarches from time to time. You pay a fee, you walk anywhere from 10km to 30km, drink mulled wine, and at the end you get a medal or a bierkrug or a little ceramic plate or whatnot. What did you get it for? Finishing the damn thing. Winning wasn’t the point. Do you…

That’s my question. Enhanced supervision and a couple years of jail don’t seem like a solution, and they did really heinously try to murder that poor girl. You can’t have them just out and about once they turn 21.

I like this mental picture. Let’s have her puffing a cig too and skating real cool, not even breaking a sweat, while that dude runs and sweats and panics, looking behind him to see AAAGH SHE’S STILL THERE

i was so mad someone brought this out of the greys

Temple Grandin sagely points out that livestock exist largely so we can eat them. If we did not, they would not live at all. It is our responsibility to see that their lives are not living hells, but it is perfectly okay to kill and eat them, so long as we do so humanely.

god speed, friend. I’m not sticking around for these comments.
