Hey, Paul! Have you come up with the name of one person
here who takes you seriously yet?


He sure knows how to jerk your chain though.

Janet taught me well

Paul, you behave like someone who knows he has nothing
positive to contribute. That wouldn't be hard to remedy,
IFF you were interested in doing so.

It's
usenet. Some of us *enjoy* non-hostile posts once in awhile. I still
didn't get the memo where you were elected net/group nanny.

You're just about the only person here who's ever given
anyone crap for being interested in dogs, and you haven't
shown very much interest in them, yourself.



Actually I'm one of the few who didn't get involved in all the sparrow
crap either. What exactly did all that have to do with dogs, again?
You live to snipe at people and simply can't understand any other way of
life. Carry on...............

I'm sorry that I got involved, but Sparrow came into the "Out Of Control"
thread with some cheery (although admittedly rather saccharine), comments,
and then was "dissed" by Janet and Melinda, et al. Yes, this is usenet, and
it is a free public forum where anyone may say anything, even if it is
hurtful. Her posts were on-topic, positive, and supportive. Unfortunately
she chose to say kind things about me, and got slammed, which resulted in
her having a serious melt-down. She has been advised to stay away from
usenet and RPDB.

But let's not drift this thread away from its original focus. Animals can
have interspecies friendships and can learn to get along nicely even with
many differences. Why can't we do the same here on RPDB?

Right, Paul - everything's all about you!

Because you're an obsessive stalker who deliberately puts
his dog in harm's way to attract attention to yourself?

Hey, I did make a positive comment. And I figured you could not resist
trying to attract more flies, which can be done increasingly well by:
vinegar, honey, and bullshit.

Speaking of which, and to make this dog-related, Muttley found some
probable coyote poop, sniffed at it, and then promptly rolled in it,
covering the side of his head and part of his front leg with a stinky glop
that he wore proudly on the way back to the house after his walk. I tied
him up, wiped the worst of the mess off of him, added some peppermint soap,
and hosed him down. He didn't like it much at first, but eventually he
seemed to get used to it and did not resist. He "shore" smells better now!

No, you really didn't. Your intent has been clear all
along. The way to start playing a more positive role would
be to start taking better care of your dog. Because,
ultimately, that's what it comes down to around here, and
you might start getting some positive attention for a
change.

Yet it was *you* who took the opportunity to belittle, demean, mock and diss
a perfectly innocuous post that *some* of us find a pleasant distraction.
Others post off topic stuff here. Not that this was even *off topic* to the
behavior of dogs.

No, I mocked you, for 1) your drippy gooey hollow insincere
dishonest cloying sentimentality, and 2) encouraging
drive-by spam. The first is personally annoying; the second
is a problem for the newsgroup in general.

Golly! Wow. That's amazing. I'm astonished. It's cute!
LOL! And you're right - inspiring! "Up, up with people!"
It makes me just want to run out and hug a stuffed animal (a
really cute stuffed animal)!

Thanks to your posts, I'm now going to dot all my 'i's with
smiley faces!

Which goes to show you apparently wake up with a snotty chip on your
shoulder.
