I liked the way you compared smoking to a bad relationship. Smoking is a
relationship wherein cigarettes are our trusted friends.

No chemicals are good, but e-cigs are definitely much less dangerous than real fags. The FDA move was a response on behalf of the tobacco industry, IMHO.
As far as chemicals are concerned, plastic water bottles also contain carcinogens which tranfer to the water. The plastic lining in cans of food has the same problem. We can't eliminate. We can only minimize.

Re: Can you please tell me how many puppies my westie will have?

Eight is not that unusual. That surprised me, because Willow's mom always
has small litters of three or four. Ten seems like a lot though.
Congratulations!

Thanks for the comment, Carrie.

I remember you speaking at John's memorial. You showed me a side of John
that I had known nothing about until you spoke.

Although John was my cousin, we didn't really know each other very well. We
simply never got each other.

Rest assured, that the stuff in the post about God and heaven were entirely
metaphorical and no attempt to put forth John's views. I never heard him
speak on the subject but I think I would have expected his opinions to be
exactly as you describe them.

Wow, I can't believe it! Yup, I'm your guy. How the heck did you land
on this blog? I'll send you an email off-blog. Wow!

Re: What is the best way to start Natural Horsemanship?

swamperfox — Sun, 28 Jun 2009 22:50:19 -0000

Exactly right. The system isn't the point. The goal is to establish a
communication between horse and rider and any system can do that.
Really I think the natural hosemanship methods are designed to teach
the rider how to listen to the horse and make requests in his
language.

Hi Sixty,
Super energetic and super intelligent. On the other hand, this pup takes
long rests when she isn't tearing around and she's easy to tone down when
she gets too wild. Space hasn't been a problem sofar. We take her to the
barn every day, but she is on a leash all the time for now. I think as long
as there is lots of stimulation the wildness might not be such an issue.

Hi Mark,
Backlinks are certainly the key. Like I said, the system I'm following right
now is to use article marketing for link-building. Once I get up to speed, I
intend to use the stuff I learned in the thirty-day challenge about building
a network of web 2.0 sites to get backlinks that are worth a lot. I have
around 20 of those sites just loafing around drawing welfare right now.
Might as well put'em to work.

There is just a slim chance that someone may be charged. Very slim. A case
was successfully prosecuted about 10 years ago in which the CEO of a company
was found guilty of murder. Several migrant workers who were using
pesticides in their job died and the prosecution proved that the company had
intentionally disregarded the mandated training in the proper use of
poisons. That is the only case I have ever heard of in the US where
responsibility rose to the top.

Glad you found your man, Dana. A good partner makes all the difference.

It is possible to make money blogging, but its too much work and takes too long for most people. Plus the money is in niche blogging, not personal.

All the best. Thanks for stopping by.

It's a pendant. One and a half inches across is too big to be a charm, I think.

I know what the doc means about your knee. My aunt is 75 and on her third hip replacement.
Thanks for the nice backlink . That marshmallow popper looks like just the ticket for Marilyn and me. She always wants to go paintballing.
