He changes his handle constantly to avoid killfiles. That's your opinion, and you're entitled to it. Personally, I think he does it to be humorous, which they usually are. I have no problem with him, or any one else, using whatever handle they want. That is your option. I do have a problem with it. I don't know what to say to that. You have a problem. If you are going to be opionated, stick with the name/handle you voice that opinion with. Smithers does not do that. I guess that's up to him. I've seen no rule anywhere that precludes his handle change. It's not like he's trying to become incognito. We all know who he is (or as much as he wants us to know). I'm certainly not trying to start or partake in a ****ing contest about it. Neither am I. He needs to claim an identity/handle and stick with it. Apparently, *he* doesn't have that need. *You* have that need. I'm not making a judgement on either of your needs. Do you think he can do that? I'm sure he *can* if he so desires. He doesn't seem to have that desire. -- John H **** May your Christmas be Spectacular!**** *****...and your New Year even Better!***** |

Someone who changes his/her handle every week is not living up to any criticism presented his/her way and is also cloaking oneself to killfiiles. There is no other reason for changing ones handle on a constant basis. Jim, it sounds like you are busting for a fight about something, but I'm not sure what or why. If you criticize Reggie for something he's said, he'll read your response. If you want to 'attaboy' him that is your option John. At this point he is showing himself as nothing more than a 'Kevin wannabe'...............and you are condoning that action. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year John. |

Tough to eat those sky high vet bills when people are covered by our medical system. My lab tore her anterior cruciate ligament in her left back leg. (I *think* that's the one.) It holds the knee joint together. The doc repaired it with wire through the upper and lower bones. Then I had to give the dog physical therapy for two months. $1500 for the operation. This was after radiation therapy at North Carolina State Vet Hospital for a month, at a cost of $3500. This is getting to be a damn expensive dog.

Don,
It should be easy paying for the vet bills when people are covered by your medical system. Dogs are great family members, they don't run go to an expensive college and suddenly know everything. Dog always love you. Dogs are great to go boating with. Did I mention, dogs will love you no matter what. Plus, if you get lost in the wilderness, they will help you keep warm. I would think you could save some money on your heating bills by having your dogs sleep with you on a cold winter night. Have you ever heard of a "3 Dog Night"? "Don White" wrote in message ...

JohnH,
You dog is very lucky to have you as an owner. Have you ever considered giving him some plastic surgery? "JohnH" wrote in message ...

Now don't go away mad just because we don't agree on something. I'm neither praising him nor belittling him. I personally don't think his name changing makes a bit of difference. I don't think atlman's name changing makes a bit of difference either. I guess you could say I'm condoning free speech, at least as far as name-changing goes. -- John H **** May your Christmas be Spectacular!**** *****...and your New Year even Better!***** |

Don,
Yeah right. ; ) They were "Three Dog Night". A three dog night is something completely different. Three Dog Night It will be a co~o~o~ld night tonight. The lows will be in the "three to four dog range" with the windsreaching up to one or more. As reported in the Aleutian Islands The Eskimo tribes of Alaska determine temperature based upon how many dogs they bring in to cuddle within order to stay warm throughout the night. The Eskimos cherished their dogs as much as they did each other. They pioneered the use of dog teams, as a means of motivation in some of the harshest and foulest winter weather. Keeping their dogs running (literally) in the wintertime was a necessity of life. So, if you really want to know how to take care of your dogs for the winter, then you take them to an Eskimo for a winter tune-up. Tune-up your radio, and heed the "Call of the Wild" or domestic in our case. "Don White" wrote in message ...
