Warning: dogs inside
hehehe, got it from aladriel in the mail today and thought it worth posting here.
If you want someone who will eat whatever you put in front of him
and never say its not quite as good as his mothers
....then buy a dog.
If you want someone always willing to go out, at any hour,
for as long and wherever you want ...
....then buy a dog.
If you want someone who will never touch the remote, doesn't care
about football, and can sit next to you as you watch romantic movies
....then buy a dog.
If you want someone who is content to get on your bed just to
warm your feet and whom you can push off if he snores
....then buy a dog !
If you want someone who never criticizes what you do, doesn't care
if you are pretty or ugly, fat or thin, young or old, who acts as if
every word you say is especially worthy of listening to, and loves
you unconditionally, perpetually ..
....then buy a dog.
BUT, on the other hand, if you want someone who will never come
when you call, ignores you totally when you come home, leaves hair
all over the place, walks all over you, runs around all night and only
comes home to eat and sleep, and acts as if your entire existence
is solely to ensure his happiness ..,

Now be honest, you thought I was gonna say... marry a man, didn't you?
Now a bit of my own comments for this.
Dofs do eat a lot of things, but will not necessarily eat whatever you offer. Especially if there is something more yummy in your own plate. So you'll soon find the fluffy ears flattering around your dinner.
Never touching the remote - heh, they do, in fact, my parents' dog quite liked doing it, coming to the sofa, stepping on the remote, turning the TV on or off and sleeping on the remote. After which my Dad usually couldn't find it, and sometimes when not looking he grabbed something that felt like remote and pressed the buttons, being surprised why it doesn't work. It was a chocolate bar with big hazelnuts.
The dog did care about football too, so we had to keep him away from any football going on in the yard - the fluffy creature liked to bite the balls and with fangs like his to make a few holes in the ball wasn't a problem.
On pushing the dog off the bed - well, if you have a scotch-terrier, maybe yes, but not with an airdale one, he's more likely to push you off.
As for listening to your words and never criticizing - heh, you just need to know how to understand dogs talk. He'll tell you everything he thinks.
As for cats - I can't say anything as never had a cat, but are they really that bad? :-(((((((
