ROTF!! Imagine the parties!!

I just got done reading it. I was LMAO at the part about the Cop who kicked the Cub player...

That's no life for the dog. I would find her a new home if it came to that. I'm going to do everything I can first, and at least for another year. What the heck would you suggest I do with a crying baby...

Ya just can't post without mentioning my name can ya...

And the concessions and parking people still have to be paid...

Apology on the internet now that's funny! Slow day...

Did I miss mike's apology somewhere...

Oh geez... the pet trainer and the vet said that when greeting them it is OK to goto them..? Damn.. it's worse than kids. Does Dr. Spock have a book on how to train dogs..??

That's not working...

This stuff is better than a soap opera! http://www.nypost.com/news/nationalnews/4289.htm

By "shock" collar do mean a pinch collar? Or is there an actual shocking device in it? A pinch collar works really well for walk training, but I wouldn't use it for anything else. I am currently taking our puppy to puppy training class, and the instructor says the best way to keep the dog from jumping is to brush it off or ignore it when it's jumping, and reward it when he/she backs off. No pinch. There are 2 actual prongs that sit on her neck and give a little voltage when we push the button (that's what's supposed to happen.. we have not bought or tried this yet). 3 ladies and 1 guy at the vet swear by it. And as for them telling you to ignore the dog when it jumps.. that would work if she didn't have nails and if she didn't do it when I come home from work in the work clothes. As for rewards.. she gets them for everything she does good. She knows what no means. So I just don't why she wont respond to no when she jumps. We even go to her level to greet her. She tries to jump on our shoulders and back then.

How many albums is Michael selling now... Not too many. You'd be surprised just how well he does in Europe. But I'll make another point.. Brittney Spears..? All the "boy bands"..? Cher..? People are flocking to their concerts and to buy their CD's.. Personally, I can't stand their music and think they have no talent.. but obviously some do.

Anyone ever use those "shock" collars to train dogs? Vet suggested that (since I don't have time to take Ginger to "school". She's just a puppy and the only thing I absolutely hate is how she jumps up on people when they come in the house. She doesn't chew, bite, excessively bark, or anything else "bad". And she's just 10 months old so I think she'll grow out of this anyway. Do they work?

Lazy Jealous

Of course. He's auditioning for his new boss

Ugh.. corg... yer givin me a headache. Can we get a smiley playing a violin please....?

Ugh.. John told us the story of 9/11 (the scheduled activities for that day). Brought me to tears. We are so very lucky to even have this team.

Michael Jackson still has millions of fans... does that mean he's any good anymore? Here's to personal preference and being able to express an opinion

Even though I haven't been around much lately, I never doubted ya Steff. I said he should have been on the bench more.. Michelle said he sucked..

LOL.. I was tending to the real world.

Mike... you want to show me where I said he sucked...? Go on... I'll wait. Let me save you some time.. I never said that! Not nice to LIE and put words in people's mouths...

Yes please.. send me the number. Also.. I missed your call. I'll just buzz you tomorrow from work. It's about the 6th anyway so if you've made a decision on that then we'll just work out the details.

A lot of people agreeing with you lately, clu. (cue Twilight Zone music... ) I agree completely with you on the latter of your post. I'd be willing to say that there are some fans out there like that.

Steff, he said that there were "at least 10 people" who he felt were wishing for Koch's failure, but he did not mention any names. I'd be willing to bet that there were far more than 10 that, when they saw his line from his 1st rehab start, got very happy -- and I would hope you'd agree that is just sick and disturbing, and that in all likelihood, they have some deep-seeded issues. You could be right.. but I hope that isn't true. I think we're an emotional and passionate group about this team. And we are vocal when things go wrong. I'd like to think that once people sign off here after voicing their opinions they don't walk around talking about how Koch sucks.. but then again, maybe they do. I know when I sign off here I don't think about baseball as far to have to talk about it again until I am watching it on TV, at the game, or back here or on WSI posting. Although, maybe I'm the weird one..?

Well.. I'm borderline hag now.. Gotta work extra hard.
