thefortunes Hi Pye, and I think that this is not correct in her case, and it is such a pity for the poor dog. The rule has been made in order to prevent people hurting the already poor animals in the shelters. And I had to sign the exact same thing on my contract while...

thefortunes Yes Balasri, definitely :) The one goes wit the other, as you might spoil your good looks with shoes that don't fit, or look shabby and old or out of fashion.

thefortunes LOL, hehehe Balasri, and as a matter of fact I do know what friends and acquiantances, and others think about me:
Trustworthy, knowledgable, willing to share, to help, and to listen. The other side of the coin will be: too perfectionistic, and not willing to...

thefortunes Hi Raijin, well, curiosity kills the cat they say, and it might be so, but I haven't yet experienced any bad things because of being curious. Or maybe I am not that curious after all, who knows. Usually my curiosity has made me researching certain topics such...
