i love my ex-boyfriend's two dogs (retired greyhounds, probably one of the most loving breeds of dog there is), but sadly there is only one now, as he had to put one to sleep a few months ago and when i found out i just cried and cried...

<--- I give you the cute and fluffy ROSIE!!!!!
Love her. Miss her. Except when she decides to use my Docs as a chew toy...while I'm wearing them.

I have a golden retriever as well. She's almost 4 years old, but still acts like a little puppy. She doesn't retrieve.. just goes and gets whatever was thrown, then plops down on the spot and chews on it, shes also deathly afraid of water that she can't stand up in. Not the brightest thing ever but still love her to death

Here in this cold white room tied up to these machines, it's hard to imagine life as it used to be. Laughing, screaming, tumbling queen... Like the most amazing light show you've ever seen. Whirling, swirling, never blue... How could you go and die? What a selfish thing to do... RIP Jason

my parents just got my sister one of those hyper-allergetic french name dogs....bijon frisse or something and it's so cute and i can't wait to go home for christmas and see him. He's a baby and he has a pet toy monkey that he won't leave his bed without and when his water bowl is empty he'll drag it into my dad's office to get attention. and this morning my mom wouldn't let him in her office so he went to the living room, grabbed some clothes that my dad had folded, brought them to the door to my mom's office and chewed on them until she got up and paid attention to him...aww....

Plince! Plince! Nein! T-Rex!!

Mr. Diamond, (aka “Rob”)

This letter is in response to the “Temporary Access Ban” that was imposed on my account this past Saturday evening.

My complaint is simple:

You and your associates, Craig and Jose, happily use the “no foul language” and “no personal attacks” excuse to yell at, warn, ban, etc. any person that you decide to.

My problem is how this policy is not equally imposed on all board members.

I have repeatedly been called “racist”, “Nazi”, “asshole”, etc. without any bans, temporary or otherwise being dealt to the offenders.

I ask you, is this fair?

Certain board members, especially FindingNamo and CurtainUp2, have taken it upon themselves to follow me from thread to thread and do nothing but spew out insults towards me, yet nothing has happened to them.

I ask you, is this fair?

This board likes to chant the mantra “It’s OK to have an opinion”

Well, that’s true if your opinion is the right one, or should I say the LEFT one.

I express my opinion, then people attack me, then I tell them what I think of them, then I get warned. But of course, nothing happens to them.

I ask you, is this fair?

Frankly, I believe one reason for my 48 hour ban was due to the fact that you were upset that I pointed out that the advertisements on the right hand side of the screen had gotten wider. Incidentally, I notice they’re back to their prior width.

I’m sure that if you were to ban me permanently there would be a number of members of the board that would give each other some sort of cyberspace high-five due to their triumph over me. Now if you could look yourself in the mirror afterwards and say “I acted fairly” then go ahead and ban me. Frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn.

Incidentally, before you start shooting-off your mouth about me including your address and phone number on this thread, I just want to say that you took no steps to make such information secret as I found it at http://www.wisdomdigital.com/pr1.cfm, which happens to be the second listing when one googles “Wisdom Digital”

Sincerely,

RodneyK

p.s. To all my “opponents” out there: Before you start all your “stop whining”, “it’s their board they can do what they want”, etc. rants keep in mind that I don’t give a crap.

Marc...I didn't even know you had a dog...you think someone would have posted her picture before. Love the Woo, so does my Golden, Logan..he has a framed picture of her on his night stand.

My darling pup is a border collie/terrier/possibly husky mix. Does that count?

Not a Golden and quite a bit smaller, but I love my puppy Chloe to pieces. She curls up in my lap as I work at the computer. Wait! She's in my lap at any opportunity. She's a sweet girl.
