The animal shelter may have been at maximum capacity and wasn't taking any more animals at the time.

No excuse to dump them in the woods but it could be why.

Open Door Sanctuary NEVER refuses an animal, and they have a "no euthanize" policy.


why people have to email me and ax me where "Fair Play" is, wouldn't it be easier to just google it?


It's called a conversation starter. Shame on the person for actually emailing you...I am certain you are overwhelmed with so many emails that you cannot be bothered with such mundane questions!

But...for those who google is not their friend:

Fair Play is a city in Polk County, Missouri, United States. The population was 418 at the 2000 census. It is part of the Springfield, Missouri Metropolitan ...

Okay, I'm just going to say it - I don't "GET" why some women on this site put really..uh...we'll CALL them "provocative" photos on their profile and then state they're looking for a "true gentleman" and a "nice guy". What's up with that? Do they think they're going to get anything other than sleazy come ons if they're parading around in a bikini, lingerie or some other, similar get up in their profile pics?

I'm just saying and I'm not naming names. I just don't GET IT.

^^^^ x2

Sue, that was the first thing that came to my mind as well.

I thought "If that's all you know how to use to attract a mate -- see ya!".

Mr. Atypical strikes again...

Well, I am not one to parade around bikini clad, but if I could, I just might! In defense of some really kick ass people I know who do, let me say this. Think of the profiles as being 2 dimensional, and the photos making them three.

The photo's AREN'T "all they have to attract a mate"...they have things written in their profile prose (1 dimension) and quite possibly the forums (a 2nd dimension)...and you are supposed to combine them ALL. :O)

Also, some ARE NOT looking for a mate, but the concept that one cannot wear revealing clothing and find someone with class....well, that stereotype went out in the 50's I think. Reverse it. If you DO NOT portray yourself as such (trampy clothing LOL)....you still happen upon some losers, no??

That's like saying I can't charm or attract anyone who is not a "party person" cause I choose to mostly put up party pics. Thing is...I do. :O)

Well, since the topic of the thread is things that *I* do not get, I maintain my position of not "getting" that. I would not wear anything in my profile pictures that I wouldn't wear out in public.

LOL Sue-De...wasn't arguing that YOU should get it at all...was just trying to put forth another view. :O)

You would not wear a bikini in public, provided you have the shape for it?? (Which I think you probably DO!)

I agree...I do not get, those who will pose in their bedroom lingerie...lol.

Now to be fair, I'm not talking about strictly pictures in a bikini or even a bathing suit. If someone's at a pool or a beach and it makes SENSE that they should be wearing a bikini in a candid shot, that's no big deal and doesn't bother me. That's just someone living their life. I'm talking about staged photos in bikinis, lingerie, high heels, provocative poses with provocative descriptions, etc. Those types of photos are NOT going to attract gentlemen - they are going to attract sleazy email. If you WANT sleazy email, put that in your profile! But if you do not, understand that photos like that INVITE sleazy email! I don't care HOW nice your body is, (or isn't), I do not GET those pics..sorry! It's like the guys posting pictures shirtless - "Oh, here I am posing in my bathroom mirror, shirtless, flexing my muscles just as I do every morning...oh! And here's me looking over my shoulder as I show you my BUTT in this picture...."..

I have heard from a couple of guys that think it is odd, they pose & post pictures like that & talk provocative on the profile, then when they try to talk to them via phone or email they do a complete turnaround and either hang up and/or block them from emailing.

Ew, well you know me, I dont even like shirtless pics of men....not for profile pics, at least....ewwww.

But...then again, there is soooo much hooplah about misrepresenting oneself...maybe they are just sick of being accused of such? I dunno!

Mac...WHAT are you talking about???

Ain't that the truth! There have been times that I've put one of those on and the little "patch" is going down the side of my leg, etc! Speaking of which - that's something I don't get - THONGS! Especially those itty bitty teeny tiny ones - why even bother? Why not just go commando? Do those tiny little things really provide any of the "protections" that we've come to expect from our undergarments? I don't think so!

Here's another thing I don't get - what is it with this rash of people seeing JESUS in everyday food items? Over the last several weeks I've seen multiple people ON THE NEWS talking about how they saw Christ in their food items. A quick search on Google netted these bizarre results:

Christ on a potato chip:
http://www.boingboing.net/2005/06/09/jesus-on-a-potato-ch.html

Jesus on Toast:
http://grilledjesus.com/index.php/jesus-on-toast/

Then yesterday, I saw where a woman found "Jesus" in her bag of Cheetohs:
http://abclocal.go.com/ktrk/story?section=news/local&id=6032302

Who are these freaks? I do think that God presents himself to us in many ways, through signs and blessings, but I have a hard time believing that he comes to us in the way of food items. Just another of those little things that make you go "Hhhmmmm!"

Cool, it kind of looks like Jesus in prayer... if you eat it you are then triply blessed at least then. But I guess if you can make a few buck to buy another bag of junk food your are ???? greedy?

Reminds me of the movie I just watched... Henry Poole Is Here. Good watch...worth the rental! His neighbor sees the face of Christ on the side of his house, in stucco. Thing is...this one is a bleeding one, and no matter how hard he tries, he cannot get it off. LOL

I don't get....people who see such...do they need God that bad in their lives, or do they need for others to??
