As a Vikings fan, I'm all in favour of you paying more taxes so my team can get a new stadium.

Spoken like a true Republican. Oh wait - you said you are not a Pukie! So where does that bit of politically thieving wishful thinking come from? LOL!

Just watched Game 2 of the World Series.

I am watching with interest the Gaddafi story on CNN. The death of this despot is
bad enough but American Television makes it almost not worth watching. They
no sooner had the story on the air when every program introduces the Lockerbie
Scotland going back more than an generation. Can't these people south of the
boarder do a story on its merits without bringing up stuff from way back when so
they can claim they were victims of something bigger.
Every time something happens they have to justify how they really feel because of
something that happened way back when.
Another program Anderson Cooper, and he has the same story to lead, and I am
waiting for the Lockerbie Scotland angle. wait wait wait, oh my its been a minute
and no mention of Scotland yet. Give me a break.

No mention of how Gaddafi told PetroCan/Suncor/Talisman(BP) to **** off? I wonder why not?

Lockerbie did claim some 250 lives, which probably directly affected 2500 people so while their is an indication that Kadaffy had a hand in Lockerbie, I can understand many people's concern with it.

Smart guy, Cesar Milan! :smile:

I've raised dogs, trained dogs, showed them, bred them, and now after watching
his show, I have learned more and more. He is great. Works on the cats too.
(well, not really because cats will not lower themselves, and insist they are
the head of the households), but his advice helps in some situations with the cats.

Actually that is why I like cats so much, because they are so independent, not needy
at all, show their love, but don't 'gush', and genrally are such easy keepers, they
are funny, play with each other, chase around the house and entertain us.

oops, off topic, well right now i'm watching 'undersea edens'.

Aaaaaaaah a dog trainer- Our little Schnoodle will be a year on Nov. 23 and at one point we had her trained to come when I holler "come", lately however she's been completely ignoring me. She does understand English like "bed", "toy", "treat" and "ball", so it's a matter of disobedience. What do we do?

Really? This might sound kind'a dumb, but it works.

Get a rope. Tie it to the dogs collar. Have the dog sit. Walk away to
the end of the rope. Call your dog....& then reel it in...& praise it.
Repeat...repeat...repeat. I know this sounds simple, but try it.

I'm not sure what a "Schnoodle" is, but having your dog come when it's
called can save it from being a traffic fatality, or save you a lawsuit.
