    Another topic discussion reminded me of a recent commercial warning on TV directed at adolescent kids that post on My Space. Has anyone seen it? Stranger's, men and boys are asking a young teenage girl questions about what she's wearing because they recognize her face and provocative pictures she posted on her My Space site. I just saw this commercial this week. My thoughts were the same about the comment made that websites are available to the world. The commercial serves a very good warning to teens to be careful of what they post about themselves. That they're not just posting private info to their friends, but to any and everybody. (scarey!)

    I've seen violent and graphic video clips from U-Tube on the news - thanks to camera-video phones. I guess that stuff isn't copyrighted. :confused: I stay away from those sites. (too much information - TMI)

    @lvoss: Not supporting Eukanuba/Iams but every link on that site is an internal one and they are obviously biased and pushing an animal rights agenda. Some of the copy is over the top but data appears solid. Our western culture seems entrenched in the belief other species do not experience pain nor do they have rich emotional lives.

    I should add that Seti hurt his paw as soon as I started training. He was on "house arrest" for a month and the doctor told us that we were not to allow him to run or jump. Yeah right - like that's going to happen!!! Anyhow, Seti is all better but I wanted to add a little basenji tale to the story :)

    That is too cool!!! It is impossible to watch without smiling. (even though I found myself worrying for Bailey when he/she disappeared in the snow.) I think the dog is "Bailey the snow mole"! Thank you for sharing that morning smile with us. Pat
