Well now, it seems this thread is on the edge of deletion. Why that is amuses me because MopeGunz nailed the Op’s coffin shut. Why people need to be judgmental and bigoted is beyond my comprehension. OldSchoolKevin has shown himself to be a very narrow minded individual and I really must comment on how many people want to delete the thread without any comment at all. If the idea has been done to death, say so and then vote to delete. I agree with MG, the OP is wrong.

EmmmKaaay. So you “found” her on a couple of adult web sites trolling for girls. How did you happen to be on those web sites to begin with?
What are you trolling for? Ah ha, a threesome. Just because you think it’s a good idea doesn’t mean either of the girls will, then you’re back to square one.

Did you ever HIGH FIVE your partner after sex?

He*s not so ugly that he didn*t post a photo and how do you know he*s a yoke seeing as you*re from across the pond.
bestcatchhere---grow up you ugly looking yoke, high fiving after sex, so childish!
The silliest thing I ever did was laugh my a$$ off afterward. The oldsters in the compound were playing cards, quite animatedly when my Ex started screaming, but fell silent by the time we finished (the windows were open). Neither one of us could look them in the eye for a week.

I knew a girl in college that used to sell her gently used undies via personal ads and made quite a bit of pocket change for herself. She used to get repeat customers with special orders for lace, cotton, colors etc.
In Japan they are sold in vending machines intended to be warmed to body temperature in a microwave (it*s the button next to popcorn).
Honestly, there are some fetishes I just don't understand.

Be sure to subscribe to the Oregonian for the Sunday issue, if you can't buy it locally, for a while before you decide. I was under the impression that Seattle was just as *livable* as Portland is, as far as cities go.
Good deal leaving the old crowd behind.

I must confess to being a bit confused, do you have four dogs or only the two Mins? I would also have to inquire to the level of obedience training any of them have experienced. Friends of mine were involved in MinPin rescue and had no idea what training for competition was until their daughter wanted to get involved. All their dogs (7), were completely out of control with the exception of the *secret family commands*.
Dobermans, whether standard or miniature, are highly driven dogs and require a Master, not a baby-sitter. If you don’t give them guidance they will attempt to run the house to suit them selves. This includes sparing for dominance and you have noted a difference in style for the contestants. They will train you to bring them what they want, IF you let them.
The Mini’s are ratters, they need something to *kill*. A supply of squeaky toys will keep them amused when they are not sparing, chewing, or sleeping. Be sure to leave out blankets for them to burrow under. The standards were bred to provide protection and tracking ability in a compact dog. Without proper training they can be a problem simply because they get bored and go looking for something to do, this includes sparing for dominance.
Are you sure they are fighting? My hounds spar a couple times a day, The Boy isn’t dominant and Sweet & Psycho is; she kicks his A$$ a couple times a day and is half his size. Not to mention running on three legs as she is a cripple. Sparing looks like fighting because it is *play* or *practice* fighting. This is how they establish order in the pack. The key is to make you the pack Alpha, which is where obedience training comes in.
The boy is fluent in English, German, and Signals; Sweet & Psycho understands all three but doesn’t see any reason to comply until she gets a smack up side the head. I suppose the advantage of being snowed in is she has shown more inclination to learn and respond; which she is showing signs of doing. She is clearly the beta in the pack to my Alpha. I must admit she is quicker on Chinese than he is, even if I do speak it with a German accent.
Let me know about where in Portland you are. I can make a couple of inquiries for trainers to refer you to. Don’t bother with the local PetCo(Smart), those people are clue-less. The family Dog Whisperer is in Vancouver and quite expensive, I can easily refer you to a trainer in Beaverton which is more reasonable.
I hope the damage to the pipe isn’t too expense to repair. If you know where the break is that patch I mentioned should let you turn on the hot water for the time being. It would be cheaper to have a plumber out on Boxing Day than Christmas Day. The weather is indeed less than desirable; it rained on the twenty-fourth but is expected to snow again today. Fortunately, the Solstice has passed and the days lengthen.

When is it time to pull profiles ?
Posted:
12/24/2008 5:09:56 PM
He's beside himself?
And you haven't laid eyes on him in over a year?
You've been talking to him for THREE years .......... how many more years ofyour life are you going to let go by? And it appears that you are considering pulling your profile for a man you have hardly even seen. He's controlling if he's acting in the manner you say.
I really have to echo clasact here, she did beat me to the comment. Your post is a little vague, it suggests you've never met the man and then states you haven't seen him in over a year. Unless he's in the SandBox there isn't a career in the world that takes anyone away from home for over a year. Which is it?
Three years is a long time to *talk* to someone with out meeting. Personally, my limit is three weeks.

If you're coming out here to the Tanasborne location, make it early enough to see to drive home. Packed snow and ice are the rule on the roads, he highway and major streets are quite rutted so there is pavement to drive on but changing lanes is a bit awkward. Oh? Did I mention it’s snowing again? …with more predicted this afternoon? Temperatures are high enough it should start to melt off in the next couple of days. I sure hope so, I’m tired of this stuff.
Yes I did get out for a while and hit the store so I’m good for a while now. Dog food was the priority so the hounds are once again getting a full ration, they are playing even now. I guess I’ll set in front of the tube for a while (again) or read.
Sorry to hear about the pipe. If you can see the break, there is a patch that can be put around it to prevent damage to the structure. Think clamshell, with bolts and a rubber internal gasket. It’s not a permanent fix but will keep the place dry till it can be properly replaced. Morlan should have them.

I was going to give you a slight update, but you don’t sound like you need it. If your home and career are comfortable, stay where you’re at till the economy turns around. Take it from an old fart that has to start over from scratch; this ain’t a lot of fun: it happened last March.

Like Silly, I have to the store today whether I like it or not. I’m completely out of dog food and a few other items; the hounds were on half rations, plumped up with rice, last night and this morning. I’ll be down to popcorn by Boxing Day. There was a prediction for more snow on Christmas, that’s the last thing I need right now. The yard is six to eight inches deep and the hounds are having a hard time walking in it already.
This was supposed to break yesterday but now the prediction is for Friday. I’m tired of being housebound.

Rentals. For a not to Cr@&&y apartment one could expect to pay between nine and eleven hundred, a couple hundred more will get a bit more luxury, and a couple of hundred more will get location, location, location. Houses were starting at sixteen a year ago, add four or five more for a luxury home, three to five more for that location thing. Get a hold of the Oregonian and subscribe to the Sunday Only option, It’s packed with information. Animals or Pets? If you don’t have any, don’t get any; size and breed restrictions are in effect citywide, even in the house rental market.
Purchase. As of a year ago 2bdm condos started at 200K, homes around 270K; those can as much as double depending on location and luxury. Values have held with only about a seven to ten percent loss in the last year but if you look at the foreclosure market you might get lucky on a short sale. Find a legitimate broker for this, not the guy with the sign posted out back of the gas station on a commuter route.
Job Market. It’s strong for a variety of specific trades but horrid in other sectors. That Sunday paper would have to be a guide. Your profile indicates you are a publicist. Unless you can continue to work that job from Portland you will likely have a hard time getting financing without a massive down payment on a house/ condo. Even changing jobs in the same field right now could be a problem.
Random thoughts.
Taxes are about a push. Property taxes are twice WA’s but there is no sales tax and auto registrations are a flat fee instead of a sliding scale by value. IIRC, WA doesn’t have an income tax so look at that as part of the equation. It would be a good idea to call your insurance agent to get an estimate of change; Portland Metro might be a bit higher than Spokane.
Traffic is horrendous if one needs to commute for employment, you’ll want to live as close as practical to where you work. Freeways here are one bottleneck after another; example, I live in the middle Southwest, to get to PDX is about a half hour under ideal conditions. That same drive is up to two hours in commuter conditions. To get to Clackamas, which is moderate Southeast, is about the same time frame; except on Fridays for the evening commute when all bets are off.
The Night Life is pretty much confined to downtown and inner Northeast; make a note of that if it’s a consideration. One advantage is the MAX line and *fare-less square*, no fees to ride which makes visiting the area accessible to pedestrians; the usual ticket price applies to any line in or out. Parking fees can be three to ten times the MAX ticket, depending on event.
The Touristy thing should be about the same, one money trap is about the same as another. Upscale restaurants or chic bistros can be found almost anywhere. The Outdoorsy aspects shouldn’t be any different either.
Final thought, this time for your consideration. If you left Tacoma’s craziness behind, why would you want to move into Portland’s.

Women and dogs?

I did have a german shepherd once...or he had me! We were a great pair. I used to jokingly tell people I married my last husband just to get the dog!
Woodstar, I know what you mean by the dog having you/ me. The Boy picked me, not the other way around. I wanted a female so as not to raise a challenge to the mature male I already had at home. I visited the puppies once and then again a few hours later. When I asked if one of them wanted to go home with me, he knocked down his brothers and shoved them out of the way to jump into my arms. He was all of eight weeks old.

Bruder...that is way cool...never thought of a dog being bilingual...or trilingual...now that is a cool party trick!
If you want to see a cool party trick, try this. When The Boy was a puppy and young adult in competition, he would toilet on command. I knew his *schedule* so on show days I made a point to walk him where other handlers could watch. I love seeing jaws drop on the faces of experienced trainers and show people when a dog drops a load on command. All my verbal cues here are in German, I like to re-enforce the idea they don’t speak English. Even the Hispanic staff here refer to me as *The General* when we go by.
Voice command is a very good thing, on one of our walks we encountered a man and his little boy who was terrified of the sudden meeting. The man put himself between the dogs and his son while I recalled the dogs to heel and placed them on a down. He just watched with round eyes while they complied. He thanked me, I tipped my hat and said *you’re welcome* and we went our separate ways. The funny part? He spoke English to my German. I’m not sure what he was more surprised by, me or the dogs

DUDE! I live in Portland! After Los Angeles this is a hick town. I must admit that the crime rate for the year didn’t add up to a hot weekend in LA when I moved here; my how a couple of decades changes things. After the basics are covered, my principle interests require a sixty mile round trip to Sportsman’s Warehouse in Clackamas, everything else is looking like purchase via internet.
My last visit to Roseburg was three-quarters of the way through the car ride from H#!!, ask my dogs, and I only stayed in town long enough to buy a tank of gas and get P.O.d over the morons working a fast food place. Otherwise I saw enough of civilization to pique my interest so if your grocery store is hiring let me know, I’ll drive down for an interview. The only thing I’ll miss about the big city is the ratio of A$$h***s to Elbows

Brother, you hit so many nails on head with this post. The *car* population has more than doubled here in the last ten years. Commuting hours are brutal, I’ve spent two hours getting from Hillsboro to Clackamas more than I care to think about. As bad as a lot of drivers are under ideal conditions, snow is truly a life threatening occurrence here. I would love to get outta town, if you know what I mean. You may have a couple of month’s worth of snow but you also have a whole town full of people that know how to drive on it.
I moved here in Sep of ’89, into a rental house in Tualatin. That winter saw a six inch snowfall and subfreezing temperatures for nearly six weeks. Coming from SoCal, where the winter lows don’t drop below thirty-five, that was a shock.

A lot of people are amazed by the reaction of Portland to a snow fall; the city literally comes to a halt. If there is even a threat of snow, the panic begins. Stores have a run on all kinds of things, schools close, and business close for lack of customers who all stay home. The city tells people to stay home if possible. I would imagine moving from Eugene to La Pine was a shock your first winter. Even life long residents here panic, every year, at the thought of a snow fall.
This kind of weather is such a rarity the cities don’t invest in the equipment needed to cope with it. ODOT can only do so much and in spite of announcements that chains are required people drive without them, causing all manner of trouble for themselves and others. The bridges ice up because of the elevation in cold air but people stupidly try to cross them without proper tires, sand and gravel don’t help much.
I moved here twenty years ago and it still amuses me when the city shuts down.

He speaks the language of loooovvvee...hhee heee....get your mind out of the gutter...I meant he cuddles....
Well, yes. They both cuddle but that’s not the point. It takes a two dog night to make cuddles comfortable.
They both understand three spoken languages (command sets) and a set of hand signals. I really like confounding the clueless when it comes to training a dog. The advantage to being fluent in German is evident in a recent attempted break-in. A Perp pounded on my back door recently, I put the dogs on stay quietly, and opened the door loudly, in German, demanding to know what he wanted. The *gentleman* backed down immediately and never saw the****d and unlocked .45 next to the door frame. Sometimes it doesn’t take much of an edge.

Seriously, how do you know he speaks two languages? Did he tell you, or did a dog-human interpreter tell you?
The funny thing about training a dog is how seamless one can make it appear to the outside observer. The Boy started out with German commands and a given set of hand signals, he progressed to English commands and an expanded set of hand signals. We can now go for a walk, in the middle of a largely Hispanic neighborhood, and my closest neighbor refers to them as *The German Dogs*. Sweet & Psycho follows her Brother faithfully, it helps that she is a little quicker in Chinese. All I have to do is talk to them and they follow my voice lead. A number of dogs here will try to attack a stranger; it’s amazing how few people (hint) have a clue on training a dog.
The Boy was supposed to be my Schutzhund Dog; his foundation training was in German. The true measure of whether a dog understands its handler is how quickly it responds to voice control. Or the sake of conversation, I will presume that your dog is nearly illiterate and not under voice control. Quite the contrast from mine.

I don’t agree. I don’t plan on going quietly into the night alone, nor do I plan on settling for just any partner in the future. One of the problems I have with moving forward at this point is the realization that my marriage was a lie for the last twenty years. More than half of my life was given to a woman who couldn’t be honest with me about how she felt.
I won’t make that mistake a second time.

Why direct the negative energy of hatred towards the dog? Their just doing what animals do, eat, poop, and play, and defend. That's their job. It's the pet's human companion who chooses to have them, that is responsible for management of the appearence of "manners."
Exactly. My dogs are better behaved than some children their age. The Boy is a retired competition obedience dog, he speaks two languages, responds to signals, and picks up things he knocks over with his tail. He trained me to let him outside as needed in less than a week, he was all of nine weeks old. At six months of age, with great effort he trained me to throw a ball on request; I was a bit slow on the up-take.
On walks around my apartment compound, they take verbal cues for direction, return to my side as needed, don’t jump on anyone or threaten. They are model citizens, which is more than I can say for a lot of the children here.

If the *opening* of your marriage is being offered as a method of *saving* it. Move on, it's already dead. Whoever sees someone first will be considered a cheat, even if all one does is meet for lunch.

Hi Woodstar
Thank you for your thoughts, I’m finding the same thing here in the pond. The forums are very helpful in processing the past by giving insight from a diverse group of people and their experiences. You’re right about the good people here and the *not-so-good* are easy to spot.

I have to agree with OctoberFest. In spite of knowing it was over some years ago, it’s been less than a year; after twenty-eight. I’m not ready to move on. Just last night I realized I was still in the anger stage, not a good place to be if one intends to move forward.

I never had a problem with intercourse during that time of the month but WCMS is right about those heavy flow days. There were occasions I thought I had sprung a leak, if you know what I mean.
I did earn my Red Wings once by accident, day one took us by surprise. I tried to kiss her as a smooth move prior to entry and the scream when she saw my face was like getting hit with a clue by four.

In a single word? NO!
I would strongly advise listening to whyapril. Yohimbe does nothing more than increase the blood pressure in the body, anyone who *might* have a heart attack very likely will. If you want to make it harder, get some ecercise and lose some weight; there will be more blood for Mr. Johnson.
