This is usually a sign of trouble in the digestive system -- i.e., the food is not being fully digested -- and therefore a reason to seek help from a vet. It is not something healthy dogs do.

Yeah, I know. I quickly did the preventative stuff, he stopped doing it after a week, and it's never happened again.

The best answer for the ankle bracelet is -- DON'T EVER START!!! It never looks good.


(And funny that you should ask, because there was a woman at a department "cake celebration" for someone's birthday wearing one, and I couldn't take my eyes off it -- thinking EEEEEEEW the whole time.)



**Perhaps this is a corollary to Chris Rock's (at least I think it was Chris Rock) maxim re: Ebonics. viz. "There are two ways of talking... the way if you want to get a job, and the other way.

OK, can we send out that memo now? And can we send that out with the no black socks and dress shoes with shorts memo?

Edited to add - was she wearing pointy pointy shoes?

I totally encourage you to fuck, eat and sleep. Even do two at the same time. I'm just saying that the "dogs love it" justification doesn't hold water as a basis for dog-sledding for me because dogs are the kind of animals which do things they're bred and trained to do, even if those things aren't good for them. So are humans, but I think the level of intelligence and self-sufficiency of adult humans compared to adult dogs make the difference.

In the grand scheme of things, I consider dog-sledding to be more morally defensible than, say, cockfighting, dogfighting or doing TF in the ass, but it still strikes me (as the other activities do) as something that people are doing to the detriment of the animals or fans involved.

It amuses me no end that American women of every political stripe talk about Islamic dress traditions as being repressive to women, because a culture is backward if its modesty codes apply to anything more than three inches to either side of the pudendum, buttcrack and nipples.

To these women I say: I free you from the oppression of shirts! Cast off your bonds! You have nothing to lose but your pants, and the world to gain!

Hypothetically speaking, of course.

No no no no no no no.

Having spent some time in Berkeley during the "naked craze" -- when the infamous "naked guy" was on TV a lot, and lots of Berkeley counterculture types were boldly following the lead of a 19 year old University student -- I can say with conviction that the people prone to accept your invitation are never, ever the people who should. Rather, they are the people clothes were invented to cover.

FB Breasticle Day was a notable, and historic, exception to this rule.

It's the same as dog-sledding: she may have been bred and trained to like it (even if she doesn't know it yet), but she doesn't really know what's best for her. After all, she's drinking six Bud Ices a night.

Not to suggest that I have any ill-will towards TF, or anything. I just like that banging her in the rear is such a big part of the meta-game.

Hate the meta-game, not the meta-player.

A religious nut (holding the obligatory sign - you know the one) once called me a "homo-ette" at an AidsWalk here. The group of friends with me burst out laughing in his face and several of my friends picked it up and used it as a nickname for awhile.

By the way, we can do an FB breasticle day again, if you want. I can do a passworded board that only specific people can see, and we have the bandwith for it.

Ah, Freddie. He loves my area too. He is known for attracting more than his share of the "god told me to kill the abomination" types. With the addition of his name, you should not just blow this off. Don't go nuts, but don't be stupid, either.

Go places at night with other people, don't open unknown packages, and stay away from lit windows. Probably no danger, but these steps are so easy it would be foolish not to take them.

Getting 'Gigli' With It
 
Another review, excerpted for your amusement, from the Minneapolis Star-Tribune (I particularly like the line about public mockery for years to come, you go J-Ho):

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

"If you thought you could never, ever feel sorry for Jennifer Lopez, buy a ticket to "Gigli."

Imagine starring in a film so excruciating that it won't sink quietly, but rather be relentlessly scrutinized and critiqued and debated and autopsied. Imagine delivering a performance so out of tune with reality that it will inspire public mockery for years to come.

Now imagine that this doomed project requires you to speak these lines of dialogue, in a love scene, no less: "It's turkey time. Gobble, gobble."

In "Gigli," Lopez, her leading man, Ben Affleck, and all concerned have sailed into a perfect storm of cinematic awfulness, a lightweight romantic comedy with a bloody suicide attempt, a brain-spattered fish tank and a thumb sawed off with a plastic spoon. It's a Rob Reiner movie for psychopaths.

...

Ick, ick and ick, people. Soft-brained and inhumanly dull, "Gigli" has no pace, no drive, none of the dark animal vitality that might have made this tasteless material a guilty pleasure.

...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Gigli

1/2 out of four stars

The setup: A blood-spattered comic romance between a thick-skulled mob enforcer (Ben Affleck) and a self-adoring lesbian assassin (Jennifer Lopez.)

What works: The theater exit.

What doesn't: Don't get me started.

Great line: Yeah, right.

Rating: R for sexual content, pervasive language and brief strong violence.

Britney Spears is being considered for the role of Daisy Duke in a "Dukes of Hazzard" movie project. Ashton Kucher has expressed interest in the role of Bo. We can, of course, expect the usual de rigeur cameos by the surviving cast members (an elite club that, sadly, no longer includes Denver Pyle and Sorrell Booke).

All of which begs the question: are there any remaining television franchises that people want to see filmed as feature-length movies, or are we condemned to a bleak future that necessarily will include "Small Wonder II: Electric Boogaloo"?

I don't know about want to see, but I've heard that big-screen Dallas is also in the works. Hopefully they'll leave out the Bobby-dreamt-an-entire-season plot twist. Sorry for failing to leave spoiler space for any of you who missed that episode, but have it on Tivo at home.

Oh boy.

I was calming down too.

*sigh* Can I just sit on my ass like a normal person? Noooooooo, I have to make a difference in the fucking world.

That will be great on my tombstone. Here lies Leagleaze, she died opening a package she thought came from amazon.com, but hey, she made a difference! Awesome!

On the other hand, tonight, I am going to go watch strippers at a lesbian bar. So it's all good.

I have to go get some dollar bills. And maybe a couple fives. Does a lapdance cost a lot?

Does this mean Ashton will then try a country music career a la the original Bo, John Schneider?

Can we make this happen? I want to see the look on Demi's face when he breaks the news that he's going to Nashville.

I'm not saying that rational people want the following made into a movie, but I am surprised to have not yet heard of the filming of (in no particular order):

The Six Million Dollar Man / Bionic Woman
MacGuyver
Flipper (maybe this was done already?)
Bonanza
Wonder Woman
CHiPs
LA Law
Different Strokes
Facts of Life


Shows with solid plot bases that could be made into movies if well done, but for which the public is almost certainly not clamoring:
Eight is Enough (solid plot line for a movie, even if the show sucked)
Hill Street Blues
Cagney & Lacey
