I've been mulling this over and haven't quite made up my mind. In some ways, Americans seem to be at the point where they just want a president who's going to effectively lead the country. Race or gender doesn't seem to matter...

Gwatson That's very true. You can't please everyone. People will just have something new to hate.

I do a bit but I think I really owe it to society to do more. We have a blue box recycling program where once every two weeks we get curbside pickups of our recycling. I always throw in my tetra packs and oj containers knowing the...

I did about 25 years ago. It was horrifying. I stored it at a place that was owned by a very old man. One day I went to get something out of my unit and all my stuff was gone!! Apparently the unit next to mine was delinquent in...

Pit Bulls are not expressly banned in my town, but the insurance requirement is enough to discourage some people ($100,000). Oddly enough, the dangerous dogs in my town lately have been dogs in the Spitz and small Terrier (not...

Gwatson Thanks for responding. You know, I was just reading about Ontario's province-wide ban. I'm planning a move to Alaska and wanted to see if I would have any trouble getting my ABPT over the border. This is mass hysteria and misinformation at its finest! The...

Gwatson I completely agree. Training, patience, discipline, and love make all the difference in any dog. I was able to rescue my boy from a pretty sad situation when he was less than five weeks old. In the middle of an Iowa winter, he was curled up in a box with his...

Gwatson Thanks for commenting. I haven't had my APBT neutered yet because I'm not entirely comfortable with the procedure. Animal populations are getting much larger but so is the human population. I ask myself which species causes more harm. I'm a tad sensitive when...

So Brad Pitt recently adopted a pit bull. How safe will this puppy be around his kids? Personally, I am scared to death of these dogs. I'd much rather have a weiner dog and I do. Ours is a mini daschaund who is such a people...

Gwatson Did you know that Pit Bulls, as they've come to be called, were known as Nanny dogs because of their exceptional patience with little ones? My Pit Bull is a neighborhood favorite among children. I do not let the children play with him because a.) he's well...

http://www.gainesville.com/article/20070728/LOCAL/707280336/-1/news I used to be on the fence about pit bulls, and was against banning any breed, but this story has made up my mind. If a dog like this can turn on it's on family...

Gwatson Those bite statistics aren't entirely accurate. Many will argue that Pit Bulls are responsible for X% of all dog bites. How many dogs are mistaken for an American Pit Bull Terrier (I'm assuming that's the breed you're referring to) every day? Also, Pit Bulls...

Gwatson It's actually very easy! I first did some market research to see if surfers were searching for the topics I was interested in creating a website about. I was lucky enough to grab a domain that interested me AND that was receiving more than 300 searches per...

Gwatson Why, thank you! We'll all be partying at the Bellagio in Las Vegas (while we're not hitting the most poluar casinos, that is). My treat. *Thinking* The myLot population is over 100,000...How's about we all sign up on Second Life and throw a virtual...
