    Does it REALLY have to be like this?!?

    Yeah, I think it does really have to be like this. Trying to get everyone on here to get along would be like herding cats. Or like a goat rodeo. Of course, people should be nice, respectful, generous with praise, careful with criticism, good at listening and hearing others, willing to...

    The problem with America...

    What the heck is going on here?! I think someone needs a sense-of-humor tuneup! Hey Robin, this is for you (sure hope I don't offend anyone! :confused:)

    Thinking of getting a cat . . .

    Robin, I adore your quote! A.A. Milne's Pooh books are still some of my very favorite things in the whole wide world. :)

    Thinking of getting a cat . . .

    Oh, sure I can think kindly. :) I don't know about all the others who posted here who are anti-declawing, and of course, I still don't agree about declawing, but I admit that, if it could choose, a cat might trade 10 amputated toes for a home. It's a pretty steep price though, isn't it? You...

    How do you handle people who ask for money???

    No doubt! Except he is from Jersey. I feel bad for Cathe that she has to share her state with this guy, along with the cast of Jersey Shore :p.

    How do you handle people who ask for money???

    I wouldn't do it either if someone approached me like that. I have given money and food to homeless people in the street. If I'm somewhere where there are bums around, I'll take out some $$ and keep it in my pocket so I don't have to open up my wallet. If for some reason I don't feel safe...

    Thinking of getting a cat . . .

    Sandi, I do respect your opinion, though I disagree about declawing. It's common practice here so people naturally assume it's humane, but that doesn't make it so. I do agree though that it's harder on older cats than it is on kittens. Neutering/spaying is very different than declawing...

    Thinking of getting a cat . . .

    I agree with everyone else, and want to add a few things. 1st: indoor only is really the way to go. If this is a deal-breaker then I don't think you guys should get a cat. Not only because of all the issues mentioned above, but also because the personality you want is not usually the type...

    Well, I guess you are talking about me (even though Buffy and I have said similar things). It was fiddy's post and not fiddy herself that I attacked. That is not a personal attack. I totally agree about the importance of civility, which is why I support helping Haiti in her time of desperate...

    Oy right back at you. I don't know what to say. I could respond to your post but you already do an excellent job discrediting yourself with your moronic and morally repugnant nonsense. I'm embarrassed for you.

    A few questions. Did you oppose Bush and his wasteful spending? If you are going to say that we should not send millions of dollars to Haiti, how do you feel about the TRILLIONS Bush spent on wars and his buddies at Halliburton and Blackwater? Do you feel any twinge of conscience saying this...

    Haiti...

    Good question, Jennie. I have no idea. By the way, I read that article you linked to about your brother. What a sweet story that is. What an awesome husband, and human being, to travel to utter devastation to help people in need. We need more people like him in this world.

    Haiti...

    Me too, I did the Red Cross text donation several times. I saw that the major cell phone carriers (at&t, verizon, sprint) are waiving texting fees for those who don't have texting plans. I also saw that they are forwarding the $$ immediately (not waiting for people to pay bills first) and...

    I know it has only been a little while but...

    What a cutie! I just want to snuggle her! :) I like "Rosie" or for the flower theme. And "Lulu" for the "L" theme.

    Haiti...

    I just saw on cnn's ireport that my friend (through work) and his companion were found alive and well in the nearby city of Jacmel. I'm so relieved...I don't even know what to say! :) Please, everyone, keep praying for the people who are still fighting for their lives at this very moment.

    Use your cell phone to donate to Haiti

    Yes, Debbie. The numbers are legit. I don't know if there will be a VAT on these texts. I don't think so, but if there is, it won't be much. Here's some info on my carrier AT&T. According to this 100% of the money will go the the Red Cross...
