Oof. I *hate* that part of owning dogs. At least my cats have the decency to bury their crap. Worst bit: I have three dogs, all of whom (mostly) live inside. When it gets cold, they insisting on taking their poos in the enclosed grassy bit where the hose is -- about three yards from the front door. I'll normally use chili powder to keep them out of there when it gets warm, but after the winter, they're murder on that spot. Last edited by Drake : 03-22-2006 at 03:48 PM. |

No. How can you be sure? It's very easy to play loose with "facts", esp. since a reader has no/very little way of actually verifying anything. If they are willing to put in subjective commentaries, how can you really tell the difference? |

Because I read the story from multiple sources. Perhaps they are all getting through the same filter, but the same facts from a variety of different sources (some local, some national) is good enough for me. It's as much as I will ever be able to know without having been there, but a lot of what we "learn" and "know" is based on that assumption.

I dunno. The guy said himself that he shot the kid. Open and shut. Murder. |

I think he was referring to the gun control facts. Like 29,000 homicides happen each year because the victims didn't have anything to shoot back at the criminals with and were labelled "easy targets" by the bad guys.
The other 1,000 were apparently suicides or accidents. |

So I found out our neighbor was powerwashing his driveway this February during a thunderstorm. I love our neighbors.

Mayhap he was. I certainly wasn't. I could pretty much care less about the whole gun control angle here.
