Displaying 61 To 90 Of 435 Comments Hi Mac. Good to see you. » Posted By HITO On March 10, 2010 @ 12:29 pm I had a Siberian Husky for 14 years. We had no experience with the breed, we were citidiots. She was the reason we left NYC and moved north to farmland when she was 2. During her first year in our Forest Hills apartment downstate, we knew we bit off more than we could chew. While at work she gnawed off a section of the floor moldings (pre WWII building too)and threw her marble water bowl around like a rag, there were actually teeth marks on the edges. We brought her to a wolf trainer out on Long Island for 10 days. He educated us in the pack mentality that she came from. He modified her, or us, and gave us some techniques to help her adjust to her environment. He didn’t break her spirit, I don’t think anyone could have. She was always in charge of me and the kids. I was the one she’d come to if hurt or hungry, but my husband was the one she respected and listened to. She was the alpha bitch and she tolerated me. I never had a dog who behaved like Miko. The collies my parents had were lap dogs compared to her independent ways. What most impressed me about her was her complete confidence in herself. She appeared to need no one, sought no companionship, and didn’t need to be pet or cuddled. The secret of success with living with a pack animal is accepting them for what they are. We’d let her run around outside on the weekends. She always stayed close. But one afternoon she caught the scent of deer and took off, and endurance was her middle name. She didn’t come back for hours and when she did she was covered in brambles and a mess. But I swear she was smiling. » Posted By HITO On March 10, 2010 @ 12:29 pm Final Vote – Select a Name for Activist Group I voted for no. 3, however, I also think it would work shortened to: Restore Our American Democracy (ROAD) » Posted By HITO On February 19, 2010 @ 6:12 pm The very sad and complicated story of Mercy the Cat Hi Boomer. Good to see you too! I enjoyed the postscript to the fireman’s report. He’ll have to think about what he did for two years. » Posted By HITO On February 19, 2010 @ 5:38 am The stigma of seeking help for mental illness has significantly lessened over the last 30 years, but now the cost is usually prohibitive. In the last 20 years of my various health insurance plans, all psychiatric coverage was subject to meeting a deductible first, usually $5K, and then only reimbursed a portion and had limitations on the number of visits. This, while my annual physicals and sick visits averaged a $10-25 copay per visit. » Posted By HITO On February 18, 2010 @ 6:47 pm 100 years of a national park done right Incoming. » Posted By HITO On January 4, 2010 @ 6:13 pm Happy New Year Ecat! » Posted By HITO On December 31, 2009 @ 8:02 pm Hey boomer.

I still find myself having to backspace and undo the programmed word-filter evasive moves on here. Look: Cheney They’re all flying on here! » Posted By HITO On December 10, 2009 @ 9:42 am I agree with your stated concept of “being played”. There comes a time where you have to draw a line and accept that we each have/had a part in that dynamic. Thank you for giving me my thought for the day, Adlib. » Posted By HITO On December 10, 2009 @ 9:35 am X2 And your post on Speakers Corner was superb, Boomer!

When do you guys get to go to sleep? (I thought I was bad with 5 hours per night.) π » Posted By HITO On December 10, 2009 @ 4:38 am Fanned and Faved! Oh, what am I talking about? Silly me.
