I have read a few things here that really REALLY made me angry. I am totally upset and insulted. I don't know when or if I will return here...probably when I cool down and consider the situation rationally, which could be in three hours, three days or whatever. Who knows, who cares. *edit* who knows, who cares is just a silly statement on my part.

Just so I won't appear to be neglecting dogs, here is a post to celebrate our wonderful canine friends. The best friend a man has in this world may turn against him and become his enemy.
