Yep,
With cats, rabbits, dogs, foxes & fucking blackberries ( just to name a few),
Australia's environment is a mess.
Damn British!
( Oh god, I hate myself for being human )

Sorta glad all those giant fuckoff wombats died out.
I'd be shit scared of em!

I think Captain cooks experiences would have been quite different

Really into it so far he's a funny bastard

that's some heavy reading, I'd have thought...

for something comical you should check out 'the third policeman' by "flan o'brien" [brian o'nolan]

I was honestly thinking along those lines, out of principle more than anything ....but in retrospect it was a good idea.

my cat caught fleas from the same vetinary office another time.....again after paying for an expensive procedure (his amputated stump got infected)....so I told the guy, and he gave me a discount on flea-juice...but his whore secretary charged me full whack....heh, you cant win with these guys. sparklepuff is on the money, fuck vets

Yeah my wife's dog got really sick after I put Hartz Mountain flea stuff on her. She (the dog) was foaming at the mouth, stumbling around, barfing. Really terrible.

We spent maybe $1200 on hospitalization, IVs, blood transfusions and the lot. But she wasn't getting any better. The last time we saw her, the look in her eyes told us she had had enough, wanted out, and the better thing was to put her out of her misery. I would have spent a couple grand more on her without flinching, but my wife said "look man, she had a good life since we rescued her, and now we should let her rest". I still feel really crappy about the whole thing, but I know we made the right decision.

The vet was very gentle when she gave her the shot. No more suffering.

We get really attached to our pets (I guess they treat us better than some PEOPLE we know, if you know what I mean). Lately we have been helping disabled people in Sierra Leone (http://sierraleone.frogheaven.org/), and hoping that our new dogs stay healthy.

Gotta look into that pet insurance, though. Sounds like a really good idea.

Just a quick overhaul.

Modern medicine has prolonged life, but cancer rates for people under the age of 50 have gone through the roof.

I know, I was trying to say that no one knows how much cancer existed in the world before we started messing things up because we didn't exactly study the human body until much much later in the world. "he died of natural causes"

source please? gone up as far as which place compared to which place? between which time and which time?

Machinesworking wrote: The background radiation of the planet has increased 400 times since 1945, and cancer rates have risen accordingly.

I'm quite sure radiation has risen dramatically. but I'm curious what source gave you the 400 times figure.

Machinesworking wrote: Cigarette smoking is a great example of the kind of argument you two are giving. You deny that any test can prove that something causes cancer whether or not the evidence is overwhelming.

I didn't deny anything about cigarettes. they are a known carcinogen.

Like I said, modern technology has prolonged human life in general, but it's pretty obvious to anybody who looks at the statistics that people living in the country with decent access to hospitals etc. eating a more natural diet, live MUCH longer, and stay healthier, period.

of course people living near hospitals and eating right will live longer, who's debating that?

This is depressing

Poor dude has a sick cat, and it becomes a "bitch point" for peoples "personal problems....."

I welling up...............

As everyone knows (or should know) I love animals. Probably cats in particular.

My little (er, she's actually well fed

) Maple is just a joy......and I don't know what I'd do without her.

John, I wish you and your beloved cat well.

Yeah, WE eat cows!
i meant people eating cows and crying about the fur industry, or their pets...
Wheter its ok to eat animals, wear leather and (in the end) fur (too!) or nothing of that and go Vegan, simple as that.

its twisted to rip those things apart, eating meat and having pets,
