6/14: Dog and fish, friends

Undertoad · 06-14-2001, 08:03 AM

Three years of daily meetings have fanned an apparent friendship between Chino, a 9-year-old golden retriever and his favorite fish, Falstaff. The pair, who live at the Medford, Oregon home of Dan and Mary Health, spend long stretches of time engrossed in each other's company.

How can anyone get mad at the world when you see this?

*laughz, how true.
I've got a great photo of a huge dog and a tiny kitten rubbing noses on my pinboard. I love this kinda thing.

Its things liek that that, no have no effect on my loss of faith in humanity, but make me a more zelous supporter of http://www.vhemt.org/

The Voluntary Human Extinction Movement
"May we live long and die out"
and do the world a favour.

Before you all flame me, read the site, thoughly, i think every question will be answered.

Is it my imagination or is this "fish" a turtle? I don't know too many fish besides "Flipper" that can do the head out of water thing like that.

Hey, good one jag - I'm saving off that link - I'm not having any kids and there's never enough ammunition for WHY. (We're not procreating for more selfish reasons, generally, but this is more fuel for our fire)

Hear hear Tony!!!

There is no way in hell I'm having children. I love them to death, and will be a great uncle, but neither I nor my fiance want them.

There are some crazy (and rather militant) childfree sites out there, but I tend to enjoy the noñinos mailing list on yahoo groups (shameless plug ;-) ).

VHEMT ain't like militant, read the site, its damn funny and very true, the carefuly rebut every single reason in a ture but dman funny manour, its well thought out.

sycamore, how do you access that list?

personaly i have (obviously enough) no intention of ever haveing kids, and for that matter geting married, no poblem with like defacto etc (hell i'm 16 and been going out with my gf for 9 months) but marrige i've found a tad...sutffy? no offence intended to anyone =)
ALthogh that'll probably change with time anyway.

If thats a turtle i'm a 3 toed sloth...ok that was not the best example considering my currant status

Jag, you can access it by going to <A HREF="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/noninos">here</A>. The only problem is that you have to have a Yahoo ID now that they took over eGroups. We could certainly use some new blood though...it's been quiet lately.
