Well that showed me

Never show on a newsgroup the bits of your past that you find painful.

During a discussion on Eating Dog Meat Leads To Cannibalism, I argued that it didn't follow. I shot some farm dogs, so does it mean I will now feel comfortable killing my family?

I wish I'd kept out of the argument. Now a waste of oxygen has labled me an admitted dog murderer. I said things to him I don't regret saying, but they should have been kept off a.l.f.

I think it's time I kept off a.l.f. too, for a while. Not a day goes by without me feeling increasingly alienated there.

I remember that day on the farm so well. Every time I see a working sheepdog I remember it again.

I won't be leaving, but I will be putting all threads on Ignore for a few days so that I can step back a bit and relax.

Hiya, Batty... *hugs* Yeah, I know the feeling.. Ursus and I have rarely posted there; I finally posted something to respond to David Fox -- thanking them both for their arguments, and trying to get David to shut up! *grins* Otherwise, I know how you feel. I dislike stuff like that because *everyone* has to get their two cents in -- and keep the thread alive.

As for your experience: I've never worked on a farm, but I respect those who do -- if you had to kill those dogs for whatever reason, then you've probably saved them a lot of grief and pain. I've seen you're work with bats and rescuing -- I know that you wouldn't harm anybody or anything just for kicks.

Don't let the little minds that responded to your ALF posting get you down, ok? You have furiends that support you -- I'm one, and I know Ursus is another.

*hugs*

Wabbit.
