So this is where everyone's been--the one post that brought disparate members together like none other. And here I thought the OP pretty much summed it up by inference.
The sadness seems so obvious I don't know what to say.
From the meerkats, yes--certainly the mother has none to supply.
Elegantly logical and a fair start. Better than all this beating I'm sorry to hear a number you reporting you'd get, whether you actually would or not. But our enthusiastic response to the article about overprotection doesn't mean we have to go back to hitting--let's invent something new.
Related to our rant against excessive control: glad to see others like old metal and wood things. Makes me want to take the gloves off my old sig: Hey, everyone having those lookalike metal garage doors with fake woodgrain makes you look like you have no confidence in your own taste: same for those blindingly white vinyl windows with fake crossbars that don't look 3-D and concrete roofs trying to look like shakes. At least few people have plastic picket fences so far…but what happened to days when people weren't afraid to pick out their own paint for houses?
Speaking of preservation of fauna and flora, my allegedly environmentally-friendly blue city just cut big trees down because they outgrew the narrow strip between sidewalk and street, causing massive buckling of the former. It's a very quiet street, were I confined to a wheelchair I'd ride in the street rather than want the sidewalk smoothed and the trees gone.
I think a children's hospital solved the problem of kids taking stuffed animals home by bandaging them and saying they had to remain behind to heal.
If cleverness would help the girl be brave, I'd gladly supply her with an anthem:
Every syringe, each injection, every needle
Haemorrhaging and cramping to beat all
Screaming at the nurses above
All for meerkat lo----o-----ove!
I haven't even resolved my moral stance on the most naturalistic of zoos-good for you and the other(s?) who commented on wanting a family-friendly atmosphere.
I was telling someone about a tree in front of someone's house where birds chirped all night (pleasant, no screeches) and she thought, in this overconcretized age, “how annoying!”
Rather than crusade on the boards I'll just say I'm glad there are political parties and individuals who think like this; you can look them up.
The sadness seems so obvious I don't know what to say.
