Now it's 'clear as crystal'.

And all this time we wondered what side of the fence Chad was truly from.

You're from the wrong side , man!

interesting....    almost as much as THIS



Eating feces

Q: Dr Mike, Our 4 and a half month old puppy was put in a fenced yard for a few minutes to do his business. Shortly after he was called into the house and his beard was full of what appeared to be dirt but smelled like feces. He appeared to be very uncomfortable and then vomited. We immediately went to his aid and discovered that the vomit was feces. Is it possibly that he ate his own feces and than just vomited. Or could he have a problem with his bowels and the only way for the feces to exit was through vomit. I may be totally off base, but am no expert on disease. He is resting comfortably right now but I would like to know what I should be looking for if anything. Thanks much, Judy

A: Judy- Dogs often eat their own feces or feces of other animals that they find. It is highly likely that was what happened. Most of the time by the time an obstruction is so severe or chronic that a dog begins to vomit up material that looks like feces it is very ill.

First of all, what the ---fudgesicle--- were you searching for that included "eating feces".

Second, if the person thinks that it is possible for feces to really come back through the intestines, stomach, and esophagus, they are so dumb that it has probably happened to them and ended up inside their skull.

You don't seem to get it.  Here in corporation land, even giving the perception of the thought of such content is enough to set behaviour remediation process in action.  It's not worth the risk.  Given the choice between a few boobless hours and unemployment, gotta go with a few boobless hours.

I completely get it. I too have a real job. I of course have an office so nobody to sneak up on me... From time to time, its not such a bad thing to be dragged in to speak to Human Resources the chicks they hire to talk to people about being pigs are F$%^in incredible.

They are not, at most places.  In fact, at a large corporation, any contact at all with HR is definitely a bad thing.

Dunno... I've worked at Cisco Sytems, Oracle, and a couple of other small corps and they could have all been strippers.

When I worked at Cisco, they could have been farm animals, and they did their job about as well as a dairy cow could have.

Yep, I was at one of the MA sites.  The Lowell, MA location, to be exact.  I believe it was moved to Boxboro or someplace a few miles south later on.

I feel like Ayn Rand. 


Why, do you write sucky, 1500 page novels filled with paper-thin, two dimensional characters who talk like they were scripted by a 7th grader?  Do you argue by setting up ridiculous, unrealistic hypothetical characters who set up straw men for you to easily destroy?

Phew.....had to get that off my chest.  Wading through Atlus Shrugged was torture.  I mean, I ain't a hard sell.  I believe in capitalism.  But Ayn Rand can't construct a real argument to save her life.  For the uninitiated, allow me to lay out an Ayn Rand novel for you.

1- Come up with a single, black & white premise, e.g., capitalism is good.  Do not attempt to add any depth to the argument.

2- Write a 1500 page novel in which you do nothing but repeat the premise over and over and over again ad nauseum.

3- In order to prove that your premise is correct, take advantage of the fact that you are the author and so you don't actually have to address the real-life arguments of sane people.  Just create a few protagonists who are god-like in their intelligence and abilities and who are ultra benevolent, moral people who don't make mistakes or have to poo.  In fact, every character you create who agrees with your premise (capitalsim) should have these qualities.  Now create a bevy of characters who disagree with your characters, but make them all bumbling morons who can barely be counted on to tie their own shoes in the morning.  I cannot stress how important this step is.  These people have to be beyond stupid.  If they don't agree with your premise you absolutely CANNOT RISK allowing them to seem remotely competent or talented in any way whatsoever, lest an unwary reader understand that as a tacit approval of socialism. 

4- Perfect.  You have now set yourself up with a foolproof way of winning arguments.  Just argue with yourself.  Ignore the arguments of real people so you can spend all day countering the straw men that you set up in your path.  It does wonders for  your self esteem.

I never pass up an opportunity to bag on Ayn Rand.  That ---auto-censored--- stole a huge chunk of my life by writing such a bloody long novel.  I want those 50 hours back.

And I suppose I have a sore spot for all her worshipers for making me think there must be something there.

And about the sig...where the hell is Fredster?  Mine is getting old.  I need new material.

I've never actually read Ayn Rand.  I mostly know of her from the huge percentage of members on some boards that have her quoted in their sigs, hence the comment.

You could have put the book down, you know.

I wanted to, but my best friend was one of those worshipers and he'd been trying to get me to read it for years.  I'd already turned him on to a few different authors that he had read at my suggestion, so partly I felt obligated to at least read through the entire book.  Additionally, seeing as Ayn Rand has tragically replaced Adam Smith as the Republican demigod I actually wanted to finish it so that when I told someone that I thought the novel was terrible they wouldn't say, "You didn't even finish it..." and believing that I didn't finish it because I couldn't deal with how right it was and how wrong it made me feel for being unable to counter its brilliant arguments. 

At any rate, I did finish it for a variety of reasons.  I shouldn't have.
