I hate those No Showers! Tell you what, if the brown goes well, I'll take it. Can I have a swatch?

Laurelin, those are some fine decorations your decoration has! Looks to me like your decoration has pretty much run that gamut. Perhaps if you put your decoration outside in behind some chain link for a winter, your decoration will be able to move onto more important tasks and win some REAL decorations. I'm thinking that if your decoration can learn to say, haul and chew on rocks, maybe kill a wolf or two, it can get a Real ribbon.

Great graphic JessIE, I'm going for it.

Renee, re: getting rid of the Jehovah's. My response was Her Bite Is Worse Than Her Bark. LOL! As they decided not to visit with me and my toothy dog and walked the other way, I said, Hey, I've been trying to get rid of you pests for 20 years. If I had known all I had to do was get a dog I would have done it long ago. Good dog, Tosca! Her show was wonderful, because I know damned well if they kept coming toward me, Tosca would have probably licked the ...um...bejesus out of them.

OMG! I just had the most satisfying incident with them yesterday! I have been trying to get rid of them for 20 years. Well there I was fiddling in front of my house with landscaping and up comes these two characters cruising the street. Tosca was on the steps, very quiet as they got closer. One of them says from about 50 feet away,...sputter...Oh Look, Lassie! Suddenly Tosca, probably feeling my annoyance at knowing what was coming towards me starts barking like she actually plans to defend something, or even could. lol. They stop in front of my fencing on the other side of the property and she says, Does She Bite? To which I answered:

...do I really need to tell you what I answered?
How wonderful! I was so excited thinking I had the perfect way to get rid of them. About a week after my last fiasco with the JW (check out "How to Say No Politely" for more info and some great ideas that aren't that polite), I was sitting on the front steps, watching Meg gnaw on a big ol' turkey neck. I had brought two out with me, but quickly decided to give her just one. When I saw the boys making their way down the street, I changed my mind. As they walked up the drive, I was going to hand her the second (those are seriously the nastiest looking things!) with my right hand, then offer to shake with it while Meg crunched away on the bones. If they stayed through that, I figured I could just be one of those annoying touchy people and keep resting my right hand on their shoulders. Alas, they walked right by the house:( .

Wow, people get worked up over so little. :p

I am NOT going to go read all 47 pages... LOL

There are SO many little comments out there. I personally like the though of everyone's dogs having 'jobs' to do. But I am not going to launch into it...

Anyhow, how many of you have bought those little signs saying:

"My border collie is smarter then you're honour stundent!"?

It's really just the same thing. I think these comments are all made in a good natured kinda way.

There are all sorts of little jabby comments out there and people just need to read them and learn to laugh.

~Tucker
But she didn't mean that comment to be a joke............read her replies. But she is happy that the "decoration dogs" have someone who loves them.

And by the by...........I have the sign "my doberman is smarter than your honor student" but then I also have 4 honor students in my house at this moment............so there is NO mistaking that it is meant as a fun little joke.

Yes, Em's if you are referring to my sig (as mine is the only one that says "my mutt is smarter than your honor student) , that was made as a joke, as OC's sig clearly wasn't. People can look at mine and say "haha, that's cute!", not "What the hell, my dog isn't any better than hers!".

Awww my dogs are jobless right now as it's to hot to pull anything for them right now...

And one of them is being retired as she has hip dysplasia and being not a purebred not any other sports she can really do.

So do they get switched into the decoration catagory or collect EI or a pension?

The decoration and I are talking about how much of a burden he's been and we're working on getting him a 'real job'. He's not cooperating.

My decoration didn't take too the "You need to get off your bottom and get a job" talk either. She gave me a "Go to hell" look.

I think I will have to get her stuffed!:lol-sign:

Jessie, thank you for the graphic!

Oh, also my ornamental pillows did go with my bedding but I'm thinking of changing it so they don't fit my theme anymore. Any suggestion from you gifted deco people?
