Yeah, we'd have to let the dogs out and see that they got fed and medicined, but other than that we were going to take it easy. Jon took the dogs out while I worked on tea.I'm amazed ( Read more... )

On the other hand, my first thought with wildlife is not "oh bother, delay in breakfast" it's "how do I fix this?"

Same here - plus baby birds/assorted other critters are infinitely neater than breakfast anyway.

Modly: Ahem. :) I believe I already told you once about blogflog format needing a direct link to the entry, yes? So... please a) read the FAQ, and b) edit the proper links into BOTH of your entries. Thanks!

SORRY! Will fix!

Oh my stars and garters - that sort of thing IS a "leisurely morning" for me....But don't you know, the universe only revolves around her? LOL ( ... )

Thank you.

Oddly enough, she also posted about Steve Irwin's passing... A another person who's conduct brings up interesting questions about ethics and responsibility towards others. But I'll let someone else tackle that entry, if desired.

You're welcome.

And yes, my husband and myself were discussing that very same thing in regards to the 'By Crikey' guy. (Our youngest son was learning to talk when we first started watching SI and for some reason, he thought Steve's name was 'By Crikey' which, in turn, was what we always called him after that.)

It's versus its. LEARN THE FUCKING DIFFERENCE, O PUBLISHED NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR. *tugs at hair* Her peculiar spin on the English language still drives me bonkers. "It's" means, "it is." "It's" is NOT possessive. Not since "'tis" was in popular use.

*breathes fire*

We gave it that chance to be the best dove it can be.

Bless you, bless you. The world needs more self-aggrandizing illiterates.

Thank you. I was about to point that out. Drives me nuts when people make that error (especially if it's me that's done it!).

My brain hurts. She makes my brain hurt so much. So now she's posting at how she's being awesome for...being human? She should be thankful that animals don't read her books, of course, because then that poor bird would have used its last ounce of strength to jump from her hand and plummet to its death, just to get away from her.

Hmm... "being human"

You know, it would have been equally human to exclaim "Squab!", bring the little beastie inside, assemble bread crumbs/oil/seasonings, and --

Hey, I'm tender hearted. But I also happen to be an omnivore. I'm not generally inclined to wantonly take life, but I do eat meat and I'm not particularly squeanmish about obtaining it.

Think the whole post would have read very differently if she'd eaten the wee beastie, don't you? Perhaps more appropriate to a horror writer. Then again, in LKH-universe the good guys only eat meat well done, if at all. Only "monsters" eat their steaks bloody-rare.

mmMMMMmmMmMmmMmmmMMMMMmmmmm.... rare meat... sushi...Polish duck's blood soup....mmmmm....
