When chained dogs bark, it is really a cry for help, and if they stop barking, it just means that they have given up all hope of being rescued. Your dog likes to be warm in the winter and cool in the summer, just like you do, so allow him or her in the house with the rest of the family.

Whoa...and I always thought that dogs barked for communication/defense/for the hell of it...and that their fur was there actually to keep them warm in the winter.

***QUESTION****

Can you kill a cow remove the hide and intestines, drain the blood, then cut it into edible pieces of meat, cook it, and then eat it?

a. raise your own meat
b. buy from {FREE RANGE FARMS}-animals raised on organiclly kept open grass-field farms, NO-- steroids, antibiotics, or hormones injected...fed only organic feed for all essential nutrients.

check out your local heath food store, the $$ price for the meat is on average $.05-.08 per pound more expensive than regular ground-beef..

I'm a vegetarian and I don't try to convert meat eaters into becoming a vegetarian also, i usually don't make a big deal about my diet or other peoples diets, but if they happen to notice that I don't eat meat they then usually ask questions which i kindly answer. In my experience it usually the meat eaters who think they are better than me for some reason or they think that i think that I am better than them. which is just not true. I personally know that I couldn't stomach some edible parts of a cow so why should I be privledged to go enjoy a greesy hamburger. Sorry for the poinlts ramble, just my 2 cents.

To each his own for sure =3

hell yeah i was just about to post the maddox link when i first read this.

btw, when the "homo" species was still in its earlier stages they were vegetarians... it wasn't untill they evolved to the point of eating meat (omnivores) that they becames the successful homo sapiens that you see every once in a while today. interesting.

Hey, man. My point exactly. Listen, I could rant for hours about how bad it is to eat meat.. Call people self-righteous assholes, etc.. But I just don't have the time or energy. I'm not gonna stop anyone from living their lives their own way, and I wouldn't want to. I do what I do because I do it..

I'm not a self-righteoush hippy vegetarian asshole.. I just think people should learn about food before they eat it. That's MY 2 cents..

How appropriate. :) You summed up my thoughts exactly.

BTW - Next time you eat a burger, remember someone out there had to kill the cow. Do you know how they do that? They take a gun that shoots a giant chunk of rounded steel into their skull, crushing their face. Most cows don't die from just one, so they have to do it again. My cousin had this job for a little over a year.

that sounds like a fresh ass job! i would never be bored doin that lol :cool:

unless they get shot with the double barrel. yeah but dudes, i dont see how yous guys dont eat meat. i could never do that. thers other ways to kill cows. you could do it how ever you wanted right??? or is it in the contract you have to shoot them in the face?? bc if it just mattered that it was dead and edible, you could like, do different things to kill them. like drop them off a bridge, then go down and get them. or you could try to take it down with your bare hands. or you could snipe in from a few fields away. i dont know, id probably just shoot it point blank with a 50 cal rifle. but i would rather work with dairy cows, bc they would give me shrooms to pick and eat during the day everyday i was at work.
