The article mentioned that her maiden name was Head, and her father's name was Richard. By my count, two atrocities in one family. Can you imagine the teasing?

But the question is what was she buying at Rexall? Ex-Lax? Because that would have been ... um, something or other.

I may be combining several threads here, being quite the newbie to this place and all, but, speaking of getting teased, I just thought I'd pass along, I knew a fellow in high school by the name of Mike Hunt. One of the true highlights of tenth grade, was the day he was called over the intercom to report to the principal's office.

You can take a pregnancy joke far, far afield, can't you?

leagleaze 04-30-2003 03:27 PM

Puppies, robust and otherwise
 
The biggest single thing I will say about a puppy is you need to be able to get home every 4 hours to let him out. Puppies simply cannot be expected to hold it for any longer than that. They also need to be fed frequently until they are at least a few months old.

You also could not leave a puppy loose in your home. Puppies get into a lot of mischief. They chew wires, they eat chemicals, they pee on your floor. They are basically like young children wandering around getting in trouble. (Though I don't know if young children pee on floors.) So the puppy would need to be in a crate. There is nothing wrong with crating a dog, they are cave dwelling animals by nature and like it after they get used to it, but not for hours and hours at a time without time out to stretch their legs, especially a young puppy.

Puppies get very lonely, especially if they are coming from being with their mom and their brothers and sisters, with whom they spent all their lives up to this point. They need to be able to focus on you as their pack leader to replace the family they have lost.

You can't leave the puppy alone with displaced dog at first, because the puppy could be easily harmed by an older dog. Yes displaced may be very sweet and generally ok, but he could easily get his nose out of joint, as breeders tend to say, by a new addition to the family, and you just need to be careful when puppies are very young in terms of mixing them with other dogs. Especially male dogs.

If you can only come home 2-3 times a week during lunch, I wouldn't get a puppy. Because more likely, you would need to go home 1-2 times a day, depending on your work schedule. If you work a 9-5 kind of day, you could probably get away with going home during lunch, but it would have to be every day.

You might consider rescuing an older dog that is still young. Maybe just under a year. Then if you cannot get home quite as often you will be ok.

One of the reasons I don't have a dog at all is because I cannot get home to care for him, and I live alone. My parents have a dog they would like me to take, and he would love to be an only dog, but I don't think it would be fair to him, he would be without my company for too much time, and he would be utterly miserable. He is an older dog and could go long periods without being let out, but even so, I would need to get home in the middle of the day every day, and I can't do that. So until I have a lifestyle that enables me to do this or have someone do it for me, and also, until I travel less, I won't have any dog, never mind a puppy.

I think it is more likely that she is just getting fat. Most pregnant people don't gain that much weight EVERYWHERE when people are still in the "is she or isn't she" phase. Poor XTina. She can't win. Either too skinny or too fat. And no pictures from the just right in between phase.

If she is pregnant, I hope she removes her nether-piercings before attempting to give birth.

While in the real world, I think people should not be paid based on gender, here is one area where there should be a difference. The men play best of five, the women play best of three. The men play more tennis so their higher pay is justified. I'm surprised that the Australian and US Open's give the same prize money for less work.

Women's games seem to last longer -- because there tends to be more volleying. I'm not sure if each game is so much longer that a 3 set match is as long as a 5 set match, but really I find the games in which serves are only rarely returned boring. Volleying is more fun to watch. Thus, the three sets deserve as much pay.

Is it still true that the men outdraw the women in attendance? Because it doesn't seem like it is. And if it's not, this makes roughly, zero sense. I would rather watch the women play tennis than the men any day.

With regard to young children peeing on floors, yes, it does happen occasionally, particularly the male of the species.

Does this mean I can put the spooky jr. in a crate, too? Cool!
