and a few of my daughters are blondes
Just how many daughters do you have?

And being a blonde I actually like being able to blame my mistakes on too much bleach! I believe there is some research that bleaching hair does actually reduce common sense....

There was an article on the news today that said a study of 13,000 women showed that blondes earn on average 6% more than non-blondes.....and their husbands are on average wealthier by a similar margin.

This was in Australia mind....

I have been told not to give dogs raw meat. It can give them worms.
The meat is not as fresh as hunted meat would be. And dogs are pets, and are raised as uch, hence their intestine and stomach flora is different from that of wild animals.
Again, this is what I have been told. Have not researched it.
Maybe you should as a vet.

Dogs are not like people, they can eat other dogs crap and be no worse for the wear. You try that and you'll be in the hospital for a week
So you're saying that, as a human being, it's OK for me to eat other human crap, but not dog crap?

Pheeew - that was close................

PP- I dunno about that eating crap though.After his execution and burial, Saddam's body was dug up by his former son-in-law's family, who fed it to their dogs.Saddamlovers revel in (metaphorically) eatign that stuff, yet they don't seem to get sick. Maybe they have built upa tolerance after years of asslicking etc. MM- evolution takes millions of years.

GPS - You will need to plug your GPS into your laptop / PC to update it, it doesn't happen automatically. The update may take place via a visit to the GPS manufacturers website OR with some, like TOMTOM for instance, you will need to install a software package on your laptop / PC which will carry out the upgrade for you. If you need more help, give me the specifics of the unit (make and model) and I will look into it for you
