In Reply to: just a quick question. sm - devil's advocate
Devil's advocate, you need to quit catering to the little whiners and let them stand on their own two feet once in a while and realize that life is not ALWAYS, ALWAYS about them. You sound like someone who caters to their every little whim and likes to protect them from all the "meanies" of the world, and very likely you would think that included me, because I'd like kids these days to be more independent and not so reliant on their doting, catering, overly protective nannies -- oops i meant mommies. Yeah you have a point, but it's a small one, and you are missing the BIGGER point, which is what the OP indicated by having an independent vacation. Get real.

Oh, you mean the devil dog? sm
He's much better now, a whole lot calmer than those pictures! Of course he is still a terror but those two dogs are like 2 peas in a pod. They don't do anything without the other being right there. In fact, I think they love each other more than they love us! My poor Tasha never showed any symptoms the day she had her stroke, either, except she had a real strong, bad odor about her that day. I often wonder if she had a brain tumor. Whatever it was, the vet had said it was severe brain damage and my decision to put her down at age 14 was the best and I won't ever regret that.
Just purchased Dirt Devil bagless in K-Mart for $50 and
dd
to ANIMAL ADVOCATE
Please note my response to your query waaaay below where the original thread started, again thanks for your interest.
I bought one of those $60 bagless Dirt Devil Breeze vacuums at
K-Mart, and I hate it. It's loud, difficult to push around, messy to empty, and causes shoulder pain. It was kind of a vacuuming emergency because we had just had new carpeting put in and my Electrolux wasn't working. It cost $29 to fix the 15-year-old Electrolux, so the Dirt Devil is just collecting dust. I love my Electrolux, but I got it for free. I won't pay an arm and a leg for a vacuum.

Just copy and paste into your browser (with whatever video player you have)...
Do not get side-tracked with your feeling about peta...
One is narrated by Alec Baldwin. (I have mixed feelings about peta, but these videos do not lie, and if you research for yourself you realize the government more and more allows this hideous behavior to SAVE money - again, it is all about the money).
I have watched it once, and half with my eyes closed. Call me whatever you like, but I sobbed at the cruelty.
The other is about a (huge) grocery chain we have here in WNY.
A few months ago I became a vegetarian to lose weight...but still ate eggs, cheese, some poultry.
Since the day I watched these videos, because of my conscience, I have not touched a piece of meat or poultry.
I refuse to contribute to this inhumanity, no matter how it is justified...

If there was one, I would belong to the humanitarian party...forget republicans, democrats, etc.

posters you can buy, as well...
MTStars position is clear. We do not advocate the offshoring of
American private health information. This has nothing to do with products made overseas and sold in stores, etc. This is about how services are treating American medical records as a trade commodity when they should not be.
Since you have recently become an advocate for these "well-educated" professionals....
please justify the 20 minutes I had to sit and listen through all because the doc left his hand held recorder on. I actually had to sit there and listen to him urinate AND defecate! Immediately after hearing the toilet flush, I could hear the door open and then several footsteps that led him to meet, greet, and converse some more. I was more appalled at the fact that such a "well-educated" medical professional didn't care enough to wash his germ infested hands after his restroom break. Unbelievable.
