I really like the XBox 360. My son has it and it's fairly versatile and I have the feeling set up in a way that will allow for future upgrades, unlike previous versions. 'Course you seem to have technical knowledge so you'd know better than me. I just thought I'd throw my experience with it out there 'coz I can't stand the thought of you getting hung up in a sewer.  :biggrin:

Yeah, I've heard a lot about all of them. . . Just hate to tie up a television playing something like that. . . Then again, beats banging my head on this computer!  :rant:

My mother called yesterday with news that her little dog, BJ, had some back problems.  3 slipped discs, but the Vet was treating him with shots.  She said if they couldn't stop the excruciating pain he was in, they would put him down.  I related a story to her about some friends with a beagle who had similar problems, and after getting nowhere in Indy with those Vets they brought the dog to Rockville and had Dr. Julie Anderson perform some chiropractic to the dog, and it is doing great.  At that point my mother indicated it might be worth a try if things did not improve.

This morning I find a call from her on my voicemail.  She informed me that the dog did not improve so they had him put down :mad: :mad: :mad:  No second opinion, no look see with Dr Julie, just put him down. :mad:

This is the second time she has jumped the gun with a pet and had it put down.  Needless to say I called her after a few minutes and told her to please not get anymore pets, since she was far to quick to have them put down instead of giving them a second chance. :rant:

The next time she has a problem, she will get told that we will only give her a couple injections to get better, then we call in Dr. Kevorkian.

Yes, I know this is my "mother", but this is bullshit :rant: :rant: :rant:  Everyday I understand more and more why my late father had no patience with her.  It's no wonder her second husband drinks. :rant:

My late grandmother used to take every female puppy from each litter one of their dogs had, and kill them. Most times she'd knock them in the head with a rock, but sometimes she'd tie them up in a feed-sack and take them down to the creek to drown them. . .

If a female adult was nearing her end of times, she'd keep ONE female from her next litter, kill the rest of the females and kill momma after the male pups were off the breast. She'd shoot momma. . .

My late grandmother was 100% Cherokee and as mean as a cornered rattlesnake.  :yes:

This is going to sound silly I guess, but was there rational behind doing that? besides not liking female dogs? Just curious, I have a hard time thinking of animals being euthanized. I know sometimes it's unavoidable, but ....

Female dogs draw male dogs, they multiply when they meet. That was her thinking. . . :icon_evil:

Personally, I used to prefer female dogs to male dogs, when the kids were small because they are naturally more nurturing. However, since we got lil' Benji my opinion has changed. He's a loving little thing. :smitten:
