for all the people who are animal lovers, please be aware when you let your dog, cat or whatever you have out, even in the yard at Halloween time, try to stay with them.
if you don't your taking a risk of many things happenning to them at this time, some think only cults but it is not, there are many mean kids out there that will egg your dog and do many things to cats just for fun.
many stories of animals dissappearing and other horror stories that I'm sure you won't want to happen to your beloved pet.
even shelters will not adopt out pets at this time.
just a warning for all.

Wny should you be slammed for posting something on a serious matter? Halloween is getting more and more dangerous every year because people find news ways to be devious and destructive. Personally, I think anyone that would intentionally harm a small animal would do the same thing to a child.

Pets are a serious concern at Halloween, especially black cats (which I have had two), as pet shelters will not adopt them out around this time of year.

Take care of your 4-legged, furry friends all the time but be exceptionally aware of their whereabouts around Halloween.

In most cases this would be over reacting...  but there's just enough sicko's that is no the case.
Keep your pets safe.

Another mindless off topic post. This is a Sex board.  BOOO--  and NO, it's not a Halloween salutation.  Gumming up a sex board with "have a nice day, what's your favorite charity, and keep your pets safe" is fucking up a board that's SUPPOSED to be about sex, and the hobby!  This board has deteriorated into moronic drivel perpetuated by the same 6-8 wind bag posters.  It's nauseatingly SAD!

geeez, SOMEONE needs to get laid!!! grumpy much??

I believe that this is the GENERAL DISCUSSION board so yeah, Oh Puhleez, maybe you should go get laid..

Idiotic posts about movies, songs, PC causes, pets, charities, the weather etc. are RUINING this board.

It's the same tired posters posting this lame shit over, and over.  Sad!  

What is ruining this board is people like you complaining about every little thing that you do not agree.

You're welcome

here's a thought, don't read the genreal discussion board, as a matter of fact, don't read any of the discussion boards... like most things in life, you can choose what you want to read, if you see a post you don't like, don't read it.  if after reading the first senetence you find yourself rolling your eyes, close the screen and don't waste your time with it any further if you don't care about it.  why waste your time writing about how you hate it? save your time for getting laid, which seems to be the consensus on this post about you... puhleez!

Don't like it? Use the simple solution.

Can't you do anything but complain behind your asinine aliases?  This post is not idiotic, you are.  This is a 'GENERAL DISCUSSION' board.  Where do you see the word "SEX" in that.  It is for any damn thing someone wants to say.

I am not a tree-hugger, but I sure am tired of your lame-ass bitching anytime someone says something you don't like.  We got a local guy who does that, and you ain't any smarter than he is.

Why don't you go back and crawl under the rock you came out from under and shut the fuck up!  Or at least have the balls to complain using your own handle, instead of one of your dumbass aliases.

Go ahead, slam me if you want, I used my own name.

They will have my other pet which is a 9mm with glow in the dark scopes barking at them!

I hate animal abusers, and anyone who laughs at animals being hurt.  Pets are like children.  They can't eat, bathe, or go to the potty without our help.  Why hurt something that lives to please you, and protect you?

It's important to teach kids the importance of all life, not just human.  My GF's son used to carry my cat around in a headlock, and I had to sit and teach him that it may not be human, but it's a life, and life is a precious blessing.

If you punish your pet with abuse (hitting, rubbing their noses in messes, etc) in front of children, they think it's ok to hit and kick them too.

I could go on for hours on this subject, but I will save you the drama....thanks for the warning babe!  xo Jade

to share ideas and experiences.

Not just pertaining to sex but everything and anything in our everyday life that is pertinent to those members.

I am happy to see posts about topics that make us more human rather than some over sexed, addicted, money hungry what ever that the general population pictures us to be.

This is an open forum and one click and you can move on to what interests you while others might want to read that post.

Thanks apropo for your post about protecting our animals...some may never have thought about it until now. I know I wouldn't have.

Also doesn't everyone hug trees? Maybe thats why my neighbors don't talk to me.
I'm sure everyone wants to know my favorite movie is Almost Famous, favorite song is whew thats a tough one, I guess I'll go with Tir Na Nog by Van Morrison, favorite cause is animal rights, specifically Alley Cat Allies, great weather today but it sucked big time when I did a run in Chicago last weekend, way to hot for running weather anyway and also very humid.  

Don't worry I'm going to do a compassion meditation for you tonight so we'll turn that frown upside down

has to ONLY be about "hobbying?"  It doesn't, and you seriously need to get over it.

I agree.

Actually I frequently look for all posts of a potential provider, not just their ads. Their discussions and off topic posts give me a great indicator of what kind of a person they are before I contact them. For instance if someone is brash, cruel or argumentative I'm not going to connect well with them.

The point being that even these off-topic posts can help a person decide whom to pick, which makes them also in the spirit of this boards purpose.

The 9mm is a popular breed.

I am getting so tired of people saying that anything not related to the hobby can't be posted here.  It is idiots who post this shit that have caused it from being such an amazing board back in 04-05 with many established providers and hobbyists posting about all manner of threads to people just not wanting to deal with stupid shit like this.  You all are trolls.  There is NOTHING that says all subjects have to be about the hobby.  FUCK OFF!

This subject is COMPLETELY appropriate, because my ATF lost her black cat back around Halloween 2004 in exactly this scenario.  I loved that sweet cat, and people SHOULD be careful at Halloween, because there are a lot of sick people out there who abuse animals...and who censor General Discussion Board threads!

For all you animal lovers, here's some food for thought:

Oh, ya! If anyone tries to kill an animal around me, he/she better be wearing armor. I have a lot of aggression to get out after serving in Saudi.

I hope no one slams you for this. Its very good advice and to be quite honest I consider my pets 4 dogs and 2 cats to be members of my family. If anyone ever hurt them I would shove a shotgun up his or her ass and pull the trigger. Then I would dispose of their body somewhere in the hills where I live. They would never be found with all the bear, bobcats and foxes around here.

you for this post. Makes no sense!
