Yep, dogs certainly are characterful. Luckily both of ours have good temperaments and are generally well behaved. I let them off the leash across the fields and along the canal tow path. They love it.
Your dogs must be good with children and other dogs, eh? Ours are okay, even though Genie is getting a bit blind from cataracts, and her teeth are giving her problems. She must be 16 years old by now. We weren't her original owners. And she can't hear like she used to. She can hear you whistle, but otherwise she just seems like she can't tell what we're saying. Now the Retriever/Spaniel, Brandy, is only 8 or 9 and she's just fine and healthy, and happy. Listens really good, she's also a good catcher and retriever. They even get along with cats with no problem. And my cats get along with my fish. I have a 50-gal. tank with Fancy Goldfish and 2 different kinds of bottom feeders. They are happy. I should get them some frozen brine shrimp 2morrow. They deserve it.
Which is exactly what I predicted you would say and which is exactly what they all say, and have been saying since forever. That should tell you something Michael but I doubt it will. I have to wonder though, if Jesus doesn't come across the clouds in the next 5, 10, 15 years will you accept that you were wrong or will you adjust your time scale? I suspect the latter. Luckily science doesn't work that way.
If Jesus does not come with the clouds in the next month to 2-5 years, I will say I'm wrong. That's how sure I am. For me to be predicting an earthquake that's the worst since man has been on earth is a big deal. It is a one-time only thing. And after that huge earthquake, there will be a great one to follow in Hollywood, CA.
Also, on the subject. Predicting the biggest Earth quake ever isn't that extraordinary or special. In fact, it's quite probable. Everything is in constant motion and I don't know how far back records go for such events.

People make such predictions all the time so it follows that some will occasionally get it more or less right. But when it comes to, such as, end times predictions all have been 100% wrong every single time, despite their being so sure, just like yourself.
I know how you feel Hedshaker. You're right. A lot of Jesus freaks have come and screwed up things for the rest of us. But my faith is very strong. Mine is a very different thing. I know. That's what they all say. Like I said, the liars beforehand have messed it up for the true prophets.
Yes harmless for the most part. But I reckon you would be better served directing your efforts to the real threat. Global warming is the biggest issue that face us as a species. What sort of legacy will we be passing on to our grand kids and great grand kids because of our addiction to fossil fuels? The good news is, it's not too late but we need to be more concious of the problem and less lazy about taking the steps that need to be taken.
Well, Hedshaker, you see my faith is great. When Jesus returns, 2/3 of the people on earth will be taken away. That's what the Bible says. So global warming won't be a problem anymore at all. So we don't have to be conscious of the problem because one will solve another. Think of it. One-third of the population will remain on the Earth. The meek shall inherit it. Things will be a lot different. There shouldn't be a lack of food, but instead a surplus. The ozone layer will be fine, and everything else will be okay. No overcrowding here anymore.
Sorry to hear about your sister. My dad died of a coronary thrombosis at the age of 52, when I was 18 and my mom died in her 60s. I seem to have bucked the trend so far. I've already out lived both of them and I ain't going anywhere......... yet!
Oh, dearest Hedshaker! You are so sweet and kind to give me condolences about my sister Susan. We had no idea and neither did her son, my nephew. I'm taking good care of him so he will have someone to look up too. Your Dad died very young and your Mom too. I keep wondering if I will get a clot in my legs and end up having a coronary thrombosis myself, tbh. You'll pass in the before the next two years are up, so don't count your chickens!!
Well we usually all converge at my youngest daughter's place Christmas so we have all the little ones together. It's all about the kids. None of us have any interest in the religious aspect, nor do we shower each other with gifts, we just spoil the kids. But it's a lot of work for Vicci and her feller. We all chip in financially but they get saddled with the cooking and the washing up and what not. This year I've put aside £300 (about $500) for Christmas dinner and drinks down the pub. Really looking forward to it :cheers: It's a funny thing but I have a much better relationship with my ex now than ever we did when we were married. C'est la vie!
This year, you will converge at your youngest daughter's place again, but she won't have to cook Christmas Dinner, thanks to you!! I think she will find it so very nice. Cooking for two days is rough on the feet. The kids will have a grand old time, while you all sit and know there is no Santa. Heheheeh. So your ex will be at the pub too, eh? Sounds like it works best when you aren't pressured to STAY together. It's so kind of you to spend all of that money!! So is the pub close by where you all live. Just driving home will be scary if someone isn't the designated driver. I don't know what it's like there in England. Different laws?
Yes we had a union but they didn't need do much. But it was the TVs, video and audio equipment I used to fix, not the cars. But it became something of a nightmare toward the end with all the new foreign TV sets. When I started it was nearly all Ferguson equipment which we got to know really well. What TV do you have Michael? I have an all-singing-dancing Panasonic 47" smart TV, which has been great for the world cup and the tennis..... talking of which, didn't the USA do well? I was rooting for them after England got knocked out. Well done USA :thumb:
Yes, my Dad was into working on TVs. He also made one from scratch. He took a class for two years to learn how to do it all. We now have a Panasonic 42" flat screen TV. It's wonderful. Yes, England is our mother country!!! You have an all-singing-dancing TV. What does that mean? 47" smart TV. Don't know about those things here yet.
Cool.
Yeah, I saw how long it took you to figure out the text editor on this forum. But these technologies are really not that difficult if you give it them little head time. You just need to put your logic cap on.
Yes, if it wasn't for Alwight, I still wouldn't know how to do it. Noguru too. They both helped me to work it out. Now I think it's kind of cool and I'm glad I know what I'm doing instead of feeling helpless.
OK then. I've enjoyed our little chat but there's stuff I should really be getting on with, though I will try and look in.
All the best.
I enjoy our chats too!! I made those Sour Cream Chicken Enchiladas today and they were wonderful. I could only eat one piece because they are so rich, with all that cheese. I use Monterey Jack and Sharp Cheddar. Plus the Sour Cream and the sliced olives, and green chilies. And Cream of Chicken soup. Wonderful recipe indeed.
All the very best for you also, Hedshaker!! It's always nice!!
Ciao,
Michael
