rules to help us get along - Page 6

Cate,

The lose leaf tea in a press is wonderful.  I also picked up a measuirng spoon for "the perfect pot of tea", a 4-cup pot.  Finding a store that carries the tea was the hard part.  

The coffee is different from filtered coffee as you get more of the natural oils, good if you like a stronger coffee, not so good if you  like weak coffee.  I like stronger coffee.

lolI like Italian style coffee which tends to be a weeee bit more flavorful than anything you find in the states.  My grandmother (lives in Milano) describes American coffee as brown water O.o

Hope no one thinks down on me for twitching over here just a little surprised at where this forum is gone to.........

Along the line of coffee I like a specific blend called Velvet Moon..... an espresso blend....

it really would be nice if everybody got along.  on the subject of drinks, i like HonestTea with alot of honey, it's good cold or hot. yeah i know this name doesn't fit with this particular messageboard; i still have my gsd spunky too and nobody is answering my post in the poodle section. have a great day everyone.

Probably there aren't too many poodle people aware of this forum yet.  Do you have a picture of your new dog?  Can you post a link to the picture, I'm sure we would all love to see her.

no pix yet, i need to buy a digital camera, then my friends can help me with that, kind of computer illiterate, and my hunk of junk ran out of memory so i couldn't do it myself even if i knew how. i already added memory once at computer renaissance but they told me i should get a better computer.  lol, now i know why publishers clearinghouse sold me mine for so cheap.

Do right and fear no one

I apologize for my lack of attention to detail on my spelling, however, my typing is really worse than my spelling.  I will try to uphold the good rep of us working folk.  The point being, this board spends a great deal of time on issues of show people bickering about stolen dogs, other peoples ugly heads, rather than discussing training issues, sharing experiences with diet, etc.

gefauhr:  I understand.  I just got a little uptight because of the attack on showline people,  I have both show and work lines, but I saw the opportunity to make a "funny" upon reading your post.  You have to admit that it was funny, even if at your expense.

Your point, about the substance of your posting is mostly right on.  I would not agree that show people are not as intelligent as working line people though, and that was a point you made in your initial posting

It is like ice cream.  There is chocolate, vanilla, strawberry and many other flavors.  I am not required to like what you like nor am I required to like what Capt, Stephanitz liked.  YOu are not required to like what I like either.  As soon as we ALL recognize that, we will get along better, on here and everywhere else.

I do not care for the biting part of schutzhund.  The rest of schutzhund is fabulous.  Many may like the biting part most of all, with the rest being secondary.  We SHOULD be able to debate these things and other things, without belittling each other.  But it rarely happens.  It is like telling someone that their kid is ugly.  Even if their kid is ugly and they recognize it, there will be a fight or very heated argument.  Just the way things are.  We fight for and protect what is ours.  That includes our view on things.

Have a good day or night, depending on where you are.

I take nothing personal, and yes it was very funny!!!!!, I understand, but the same reasons I really dont support the AKC anymore is becuase the overwelming amount of concern for vanity makes me sick., However, this board needs a moderator in the worst way, I think that would help guide this board in a direct, show or working to germain and usefull discusions dont you think?

I haven't been here for several weeks.  Been busy.  But from the jist of things, apparently there are moderators here now. Just don't know if they are board members or someone hired to do the job.
