Comments on: It’s all the dog’s fault http://www.bookwormroom.com/2007/02/18/its-all-the-dogs-fault/ She escaped from the belly of the liberal beast Tue, 02 Dec 2008 21:40:18 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 By: Bookworm http://www.bookwormroom.com/2007/02/18/its-all-the-dogs-fault/#comment-10974 Bookworm Tue, 20 Feb 2007 06:42:02 +0000 http://proto2.webloggin.com/?p=1356#comment-10974 I've just realized that I have totally the wrong dog, too. No fierce German shepherd here. Instead, she's a 15 lb love bunny, who adores children, loves to play fetch, never barks (although she does moan with happiness), and thinks cuddling is a life's vocation. Silly me to get <i>so</i> the wrong dog. I’ve just realized that I have totally the wrong dog, too. No fierce German shepherd here.

A beagle runs against type.

However, in mid-winter, the yard poo simply gets buried in the snow and naturally decomposes when it melts under assault from spring rains. Our yard is my therapy. Nothing like planting a bird habitat and watching it grow while sipping a cool Sauvignon Blanc at sundown - during the spring, summer and fall, anyway. You should try that, Greg. Don't worry so much and try to be happy. That's what we "authoritarians" like to do in our spare time. We, too, have a therapeutic dog.

I know how easy it is to fall asleep with a puppy in your lap too. I better get to scooping poo. Have a great day! Oh you are reminding me that I too have yard work waiting!

Where's ASPCA and PETA when we need them? Greg could use their help too. "Unnerving radicalism", Greg? For merely stating the obvious about millions of people breaking our laws? So you think the "American experiment" involves the indiscriminant entry of any/all who wish to live here? Where the hell did you concoct that idea? And lighten-up, Dude. The Lady's tag says "Silly Stuff". Doesn't really beg for serious, Kool-Aid-induced vitriol. Her blog; she can post anything she damn well pleases.

You assume BW and others who post here are authoritarian personalities, and that gives you the right if not the mission to post bully, insult, and condemn with a holier than thou attitude and post your own often inscrutably obtuse prose. To hell with you. Look at your motives. I think you project. I think you are the unnerving radical, and that you have some real problems of both intelligence and empathy. Heal thyself, kid.

As it is, though, I dislike trolling through the backyard looking through dog poop, broken toys, and old garden equipment, which was what I was doing. It doesn't rank high on the together time scale. As always, though, Greg, you do manage to think the worst of me. I wasn’t aware that I was trivializing anything.
