Face it, people hate it when their beliefs are proven wrong. That is a fact. And no one is more in denial than hardcore vegans and vegetarians. I sometimes wonder if they are in some kind of cult, because they all seem to think and feel the same way. Not saying they are all bad, I have some vegan friends, and as people I like them as much as I like all my other friends. Just like all groups of people, some are good and some are bad. Some are just downright evil. I finally just eliminated one of the most evil people that I've ever met on YouTube, and that was MsPearlsGirl. Anyone who says they want to see someone's kids die is truly screwed up and needs to seek professional help. She wasn't just bad. She was pure evil! I know I am a little nutty, and I usually like other people who are just as crazy as I am. I even sometimes joke to my sis Eva that she needs to find other homes for some of her kids. But that's just a joke, and Eva knows it!! But MsPearlsGirl is the kind of crazy that needs to be behind bars, with the key thrown away or melted away, one or the other. She truly gives vegans a bad name, and they know it.
Anyway, I recently made a 2-part episode debunking the myths one man, named Gary Yourofsky, told about veganism. Gary Yourofsky is one of those vegans who acts out for animal rights. If he was doing it for animals that really need help, like endangered mountain gorillas, I would be on his side. Though there is no chance that I would become vegan. But he's doing it for animals that we slaughter for food. And yes, in my research I found we truly need meat in our diet. Yourofsky has been arrested 13 times, and banned from 5 countries. I'm thinking OMG! That's nothing to be proud of!
Well, I knew that once I posted up my videos debunking Yourofsky's theories, that the vegan shit-fit-fest was going to start up again. Sure enough, it did! I knew my theories and research was going to be challenged. It didn't take long for that to happen either. I'm surprised more vegans haven't shown up and shat their pants yet! In my research, I tend to stay away from ARA groups, because I know they are going to be biased, and usually complete douchebags! And I don't listen to douchebags! There was one site that I hit to actually try to prove that veganism is the best for our health, I wanted to do a comparison. The site was stevepavlina.com and he wrote a blogpost about humans supposing to be herbivores. Here is the link: http://www.stevepavlina.com/blog/2005/09/are-humans-carnivores-or-herbivores-2/. The problem I have with his blog is he is a complete douchebag! Look at how disrespectful he is to people who disagree with him in the comment section. And as far as I see, most of the commenters are just trying to disagree in a civil manner. Not calling him names nor anything. Just give thier point of view. Steve Pavlina also argues in the comments section that humans have foreward-facing eyes so we can read better. As if to say we evolved binocular vision so we can read books!
Most of the time, when I argue veganism, I tend to look at our closest living relatives, the chimpanzees. Chimps are truly omnivorous. The only purely herbivorous ape is the gorilla, and we are not in any way closely related to gorillas. But gorillas do have the trademarks of a pure herbivore. They are big, slow-moving, and have pot bellies and powerful, crushing jaws. Plus they have to eat a lot, about 60 pounds of food per day, just to get all the nutrients they need. Chimps are a whole other story. They are smaller, move faster, and do not have the size bellies that gorillas have. Only the young specimens do. Check out this article about the comparison of our diet vs. that of chimps: http://www-bcf.usc.edu/~stanford/chimphunt.html. This guy even argues that a vegetarian diet is definitely good for us, which leads me to believe he is not biased. But at the same time he knows that a mixed diet is better. Chimps are the only apes besides ourselves that hunt. But almost all apes (except gorillas) are known to take in meat in one form or another. Orangs have been known to eat eggs, and grubs. Bonobos also hunt small animals, though their meat intake is less than that of chimpanzees. For information about that, check out Walker's Mammals of the World.
There really are very few purely herbivorous primates, less than 50% of the known primate species are herbivorous. That is, they do not take in any form of animal protein at all, except maybe an occasional accident. Here is a list of purely herbivorous primates:
Family: Lemuridae
Varecia (2 species)
Lepilemur (26 species)
Hapalemur (5 species)
Prolemur (1 species)
Family: Indriidae
Indri (1 species)
Propithecus (8 species)
Avahi (9 species)
Family: Cebidae
Cacajo (2 species)
Alouatta (9 species)
Family: Cercopithecidae
Colobus (5 species)
Procolobus (10 species)
Trachypithecus (17 species)
Presbytis (11 species)
Semnopithecus (7 species)
Pygathrix (3 species)
Rhinopithecus (5 species)
Nasalis (1 species)
Simias (1 species)
Hominidae
Gorilla (2 species)
Total is 125 purely herbivorous primates. Really out of those, the only ones that really count are those closest to us, the gorillas. Some families aren't even listed because those families of primates have no purely herbivorous species. Those families are the Cheirogalidae, Lorisidae, Galagidae, Callithricidae, Tarsiidae, Daubentoniidae and Hylobatidae. Of course I didn't count subspecies, I figured the separate species were enough. But a total of 125 purely herbivorous primates in an order of about 350 species closest in relation to humans is enough to tell me that humans are not deer, or cattle. We were never meant to live purely herbivorous. Animals that are purely herbivorous have specialized digestive tracts and methods they use to fully digest plant matter. For example, the colobine monkeys (the monkeys listed under the family Cercopithecidae) have digestive tracts almost exactly like those of rumnents. Other herbivores, like rabbits and gorillas, reingest their own feces to get all the nutrients they need. Not that we couldn't do that, but would we? Who is going to eat their own feces?
On top of that, Yourofsky also equated human emotions onto animals. While there is no doubt that animals feel sadness and joy as we do, he implied that animals that have never been off a farm before, know that they are heading to slaughter. This is so not true! Animals cannot read. They have no idea what they are being put on a truck for. Animals cannot know what the word "slaughter" means. Yourofsky says animals are "self-aware". But they are not. Not in the same way humans are. You tell an animal he's stupid, and he'll just look at you and continue what he's doing. He won't care if you call him that! Because he doesn't understand what you are saying. Some animals can learn to recognize sounds, like their names, and learn to come when they hear their names. But that's after some training time. And that only goes for some animals. But no animal out there is ever going to learn to associate the word "slaughter" with "death". Or even the word "kill" with "death". I think Yourofsky watched Charlotte's Web too many times!
Not only Charlotte's Web, but also Dr. Doolittle 2! For him to use the word "speciesism" in his speech was a little too off the wall. In my video, I stated that word was made up by Eddie Murphy for the sake of comedy in Dr. Doolittle 2. It's not a real word! It's one thing to be a racist, but there is no such thing as a speciesist! Never was, and never will be. I said in the video that I hate panthers, I can't stand lions, leopards or tigers. People get arrested for being racists, but am I suddenly going to be arrested because I hate panthers? And as for us thinking our species being superior, it's natural to look after our own species. No other creature in nature is going to sacrifice it's self for another species. I said I want to see a video of one species (other than a human) purposefully sacrifice it's own life to save the life of another species. I've never seen any other animal do that except human ARAs. Though I will even sacrifice my life to save my dogs, but that's a different story. I chose to bring these dogs into my home, I chose them to be a part of my "pack". And as their pack leader, I will defend them viciously from harm. But I have no pet cows, pigs or chickens, and I will not bother to sacrifice myself for them. Thus I will not sacrifice my health for them.
As for the health benefits of becoming a vegan, opposed to maintaining a mixed diet, my grandma had an aunt, everyone affectionately called her "aunt Dump", her real name was Mary, and she ate meat every single day of her life. It wasn't all she ate, but she did have meat, veggies and bread for every single meal. She died in 1995 at the age of 102 years old! She was a healthy woman then too. In fact, for her 100th birthday, she went for a helicopter ride. It was something she wanted to do her entire life, and when she turned 100 years old, the family took her for a helicopter ride! While I will not say that there aren't some people who can survive nicely on a strictly vegetarian/vegan diet, I don't recommend everyone try it because not everyone is the same. Just as some people can spend their entire lives smoking and not get lung cancer, some people can follow a purely vegan diet and not have any ill effects. But since being a vegan almost killed my grandma, I fear it may have nearly the same ill effects on myself. I choose not to take that chance. For another former vegan's point of view, I urge you to visit this blog: http://voraciouseats.com/2010/11/19/a-vegan-no-more/. I believe I have posted this before. But I say again, check out her blog.

Crossing the Line
OK, this morning, our 'friend' crossed the line. I can handle name-calling and all that good stuff. But MsPearlsGirl totally crossed the line this morning. Now, she is even beginning to make threats. Even though I know they are empty threats! I mean, what is she really going to do to me? LOL! She doesn't even seem like the type that would really carry out any threat. Evil as I do see her to be! Besides, she'll never find me. Even if she did, she'd never get through my door. And even if she did show up here, I'd just sit on her and break her back! LOL! If that doesn't work, I've got pepper spray and spider killer. If I catch her, or any stupid vegan here to carry out her threats, she'll get a heafty dose of that. :) But anyway, I find threats of any kind (empty or not) completely unacceptable and uncalled for. Again I ask, is this civil? I mean, vegans talk about how we are civilized now, and don't need to kill any living thing. Is it civilized to threaten to harm another person? Yesterday, Katrina kept urging me to block MsPearlsGirl. I said I couldn't. Because up until this morning, she didn't really do anything wrong. I know she was calling me names, and I could sense she is an evil person (like I said, I'm a damn good judge of character). Katrina sensed it too apparently! But up until this morning, MsPearlsGirl didn't do anything really wrong. She had a right to her opinion. For me to block someone just for having an opinion goes against everything I believe in. But this morning, she was making threats and being totally disrespectful to another one of my viewers, who seems to have more class as a vegan than MsPearlsGirl does. I won't stand for that. If you ask me, vegans like MsPearlsGirl are the ones that need to be totally eradicated, and leave the more classy ones here. LOL! That's a joke, BTW. I would never do a thing like that! Not even to MsPearlsGirl. Well, leave karma to come and get her. I told her to take her nonsensical droning elsewhere. Then I blocked her.
Well, now, I want to extend my deepest condolences to the people of Japan. They were first struck with a major earthquake, and now a tsunami. They had a deep double-whammy! I have a couple of friends in Japan, and I am hoping that they stay safe! We had a tsunami warning here too. Ma was here and she woke me up saying that there is a tsunami warning in this area. We live about a block from the beach, so that was a major concern! Though I know we almost never really have tsunamis here. There hasn't been one in this town in (I think) about 150 years. Japan has them all the time. I have one friend that moved there from the US. She now lives in Okinawa, which she said was not struck by either disaster. I was glad to hear that! Katrina came over yesterday to see that I was alright, and I told her I was. And we spent the day together. She helped me clean the house a bit. She too heard about the tsunami warnings for this area on Friday, and she just wanted to visit to make sure I was fine. Anna also heard about the warnings out here, and she said she wished I could come to Bozeman. LOL! A little too far for now.

"TimmyFat"
hehehehe! I had to save this comment by MsPearlsGirl. Yesterday she was the first person to win a place in my new Dim-wit Hall of Fame, which is a new page I started to display the most dim-witted comments I get on YouTube from clueless people like her. Check it out! Just like a number of vegans, she is a hypocrite. She stands against killing animals for meat, but doesn't seem to mind supporting BYBs and PMs.
She claims to be a 36 year old vegan, who looks half my age. Yet she has no pics up to prove it. I made an announcement on my dog breeding video about the new page on this blog, and MsPearlsGirl as much as gave me permission to talk about her. So I guess all is fine. :) This was the comment she made:
"That's fine, Timmyfat. You can't get anyone to fuck you, you hideous thing. Perhaps if you had compassion, became vegan and lost a tonne of that flab, someone might just want you."
I love it that she called me "Timmyfat"!! hehehe! I think I actually mentioned that somewhere back in this blog (or on one of my videos) that I wondered how long it would take someone to come up with that! LOL! I like it, but Timmy may not. Sorry Timmy. :x Don't worry dude, she means me, not you! Oh and of course, like all uneducated individuals, she brings up sexual overtones! LOL! Cool!
Anyway, in my research yesterday, I found out a lot of people who claim to be vegans are actually closet omnivores. That is, they also consume eggs, fish, chicken, etc. in smaller quantities. The problem is that most of them are afraid to admit it because other vegans will jump them. In order to become a full-fledged vegan, that is to get all the nutrients our body needs to function through veggies and fruits only, we would have to eat a number of fruits and veggies that are actually so rare, you can't get them at any typical grocery store. Either that, or take a lot of supplement pills, which is unnatural. Again raising the question vegans have about living an "all natural" lifestyle. No, I am not putting down vegans here, this is the simple truth. This is actually part of the truth they don't want you to know! Well, I called out MsPearlsGirl. This was my response to her:
"@MsPearlsGirl LOL! I bet you can't get laid either. You're probably a fat-ass yourself, you're just hiding it. And from what I've read so far, a lot of self-proclaimed "vegans" are actually closet omnivores. No doubt in my mind you are one of those too. You're just too scared to admit it because from what I see here about you, you're a spineless person. LOL!"
I'm a good judge of character! LOL! So now I've decided since she's given me permission to talk about her, I'll have a little fun with her. LOL! From the research I've done so far, a lot of people who tell you they are a true vegan, and eat absolutely no animal products, are complete LIARS!!! They are obviously not as healthy as they make themselves out to be. A balanced diet is what is important. I'm not denying there are some people who can do good on a vegan diet, but most people cannot survive on a truly vegan diet. MsPearlsGirl is definitely one of those that is most likely a closet omnivore. Either that, or a wholly vegan diet is eating away at her brain. LOL! She's one of those that would give vegans a bad name. Here is her response to me from my last comment:
Nope, you fat miscreant blobby mass, I weigh 55kg, which is about as much as your left leg. I'm vegan, which means I don't eat nor wear any animal products. My vegan boyfriend fucks me, but he wouldn't go near you if he were drowning in a sea of piss and you were a tree. Can you walk? I bet you need one of those motorised carts that geriatrics use. Weird, considering you're 36 but look 56.
Her spelling, and basic subject-selection skills tell me she is NOT a 36 year old like she claimed she was. I looked at this post and thought to myself "She's not 36! She's 12 years old if she's a day!" That's just judging by her writing skills! So anyway, I decided to have some fun with her. I could have a lot of fun based just on this paragraph alone!! These were my responses to her:
@MsPearlsGirl LOLOL!! Keep trying to convince me. Your actions speak louder than your words. ;)
@MsPearlsGirl <----- is a fat-ass! A fat-ass! LOL! Like me, only at least I don't hide it. ;)
@MsPearlsGirl Oh yes, and just so you know, I don't believe you are 36 at all. LIAR!! You're probably like 10 years old, and just looks 36. LIAR!! LIAR!!! You closet omnivore. hehehehe! ;P
And you want to take a guess that this "boyfriend" she spoke of is not even a boy? It's probably a girl. That could be who "Pearl" is. Am I worried that a lesbian girl thinks I'm a "fat, ugly, incompassionate miscreant"? Hell NO!! LOL! I'm honored in fact. I'm straight. I'd hate to break a lesbian's heart if I have to tell her I only like guys.

Pro-Vegan, Anti-Choice
Over the past week, my vegetarian video got quite a lot of attention. Not that I mind it, really. But you know what happens when these crazy vegans get together on a video. Who sent them there, I don't really know. I can only speculate. But that is really not that important. It got so wild in there, people began spamming the comments section. I don't like spammers. So, I began deleting and blocking the people who spammed. By spamming, I mean people were posting the same comments 3 or 4 times. I had a hard time keeping up with the clean-up! I realized I could not do that anymore and keep up with my daily work. So, I eliminated the possibility of posting comments. I like interacting with my viewers, but spammers are nothing but annoying. Actually, most vegans are nothing but annoying! I try to keep an open mind, so I can hear all sides of a subject, but some of these people were crazy! I mean crazy as in absolute lunatics!! So far though, I can say my life has not been threatened yet, like some other people who had close encounters of the weird kind with vegans. I'll get to that in a minute.
These people argued that I need to do more research. The thing is, in that video they were commenting on, I was mostly referring to PETA, and all their "research". They were laughing because I mentioned something about cattle passing gas (as if I were the one who originally came up with that). No, I got that theory too from PETA. That's why their laughing at me did not bother me. I felt like they were not laughing at me, they were laughing at PETA, which I do that myself a lot of times. They were like "looking at your body condition, speaking out against veganism, makes us want to go vegan." They can go vegan if they want to. The reason I brought any of those 'ridiculous subjects' up was to mock PETA. Everyone by now knows I do not like PETArds forcing their beliefs on me, giving me their 'research statistics' which have been taken out of context, which is something PETA typically does. PETA hires people who will tell them what they want to hear, and eliminate the people who do research and tell them a mixed diet is better than a strictly vegetarian diet.
The other factor is not everyone can do well on a vegetarian, or vegan, diet. I have met several people who have tried a strictly vegan diet, and did not do too well. Of course I am happy for those who have tried it and did very well. Nobody's results are typical. Just like nobody's tastes are typical. I cannot do well without meat. One reason is one of the biggest contributors of the iron mineral in the vegan world is broccoli. You cannot pay me enough to eat broccoli!!!! I have tried it and I cannot stand it!! I tried it even with some cheese, which should drown out a lot of the flavor, I still hated it!! I can't even stand to smell it cooking. Cauliflower does not bother me, beets are borderline, celery and carrots I adore! I'll even eat lettuce, other leafy greens (as long as they're raw) and cucumbers. But broccoli, avacados, anything that has that metallic taste, I cannot stand it. I puked it back out. It may be my taste buds, but to me, broccoli and avacados have a metallic taste. I won't eat them. You cannot pay me to eat them! I could never become a vegan. Not without taking mass iron replacement supplements. My body is already sensitive to iron and B-12 deficiency. I don't know if that is genetic or not, but if I go without iron and B-12, I quickly become anemic and I more quickly than usual wind down.
There was one person who captured my attention. He came into my video to insult me, but he quickly apologized for his actions, and asked me to become his friend on Facebook. He told me he could save my life. So I invited him. I like to keep an open mind. And since he, himself said I should do more research, I took him up on his offer and invited him to become one of my facebook friends. Vegans like him have a much better chance of converting me than those who throw insults and bullshit. Though, like I said, I could never make it as a vegan. So far he has shown me a couple of interesting videos. One was of a man who is dead at 29 of a heart attack. He started a restaurant that he admitted served food that is not good for you. I say, he knowingly served unhealthy stuff, and he got what he should have got. Another was an hour-long video of a man who has been arrested many times for going overboard standing up for animal rights. While I do not agree with that, he did bring up some interesting facts. For example, the pus in milk. GROSS!!!! He said the FDA allows one eyedropful of pus in the milk taken daily. I will admit that is disgusting. But that is why milk is pasturized, to kill those bacteria. And if it's only an eye-drop-full in all the milk that is taken daily, and it's pasturized, it won't hurt anyone. It's just disgusting to think it's in there. This friend asked me to keep an open mind, so I am. I always like to stay open-minded. But when it comes to PETA, my mind is, by default, closed.
Well, I knew when I took down my discussing vegetarians video, that the nutty vegans would raid my other videos. What they seem to be forgetting, that is my channel! Sure I put my videos out there, but that is my prerogative. My videos reflect my opinions, and my opinion is PETA tells you only half-truths. Yes they are true, to an extent. But PETA is closed-minded to opposing opinions. Ask anyone who has tried to debate with Ingrid Newkirk. I've seen videos of debates with her, and she alienates anyone who presents her with facts from the other side. She interrupts people, she gets rude in all ways, she laughs them off, and you can almost see her ears closing when someone tries to talk to her with facts that blow her beliefs. That is why I don't like her or PETA, and I will not listen to them, or anyone that supports them. At least I am looking at this vegan side with an open mind (with this new friend anyway). The people who are using insults and other bullshit, I will not listen to them. Because I see them to be no different from the PETArds.
I love animals, but I do not believe they have the same rights as we get. It just doesn't work out that way. We look after our own species. It's that way all over nature. Each species looks out for it's own. Sure different species associate with each other, but that's a fluke. Like monkeys and deer. Monkeys do not intentionally follow deer around, nor vice-versa. But the deer like to hang around under the trees where monkeys are hanging out and feeding, because monkeys often drop green leaves that the deer cannot reach. In turn, though it is a favorable accident of nature, deer have a more advanced sense of smell and can actually smell when a predator is nearby. Thus sounding an alarm, which the monkeys have learned to recognize and sense, so they can get to safety fast. But that is the extent of their association. The deer do not sound an alarm for the monkeys. That's just how it works out. It's not being "specieist", it's life. LOL! I remember when Eddie Murphy was the first to quote that word in Dr. Doolittle 2. Good movie! I love Eddie Murphy. In that movie, it was meant to be comical. I was stunned when this man I mentioned, who had been arrested many times for overdoing animal rights activities, used that word in his speech. I was like, "My goodness! That was supposed to be for comedy! Not to be taken seriously!"
Well, the reason I choose not to follow most vegans, whether or not they associate with PETA, is because I have seen how they work. Most of them resort to childish name-calling. Take a look at some shithead comments from some of my videos here from vegan/vegetarians. This first one comes to me from someone who calls herself dstkl96. She commented on Mikessa's video about diet myths. Typical PETArd response (which she all but admitted she is). Ears closed and mouth opened, and taking things out of context:
I think its hilarious you think you are in any way qualified to speak about diets and eating right. Too funny.
But get this, at the time this comment was posted, she had no pics or videos up of herself. She could at least put up a video proving Mikessa wrong. The thing she doesn't know is Mikessa is no stranger to hard work and research. She researched literally for days to get the info she got for that video. I know Mikessa very well. Well, dstkl96 does have a degree, a BN in nutrition according to her. A degree at the University of Phoenix, which as most of us know, is a correspondence school. Not saying they are bad, but any school that has to advertise on TV is most likely not accredited. While Mikessa is now in Bozeman, MT at MSU, which is one of the top 10 universities in the country. And as far as I know, she is doing good. Like I said, she is absolutely no stranger to hard work and research. So, I think Mikessa does qualify to give her opinion on that video. Though even I don't understand why she called protein a vitamin when it's not! That was a mistake on her part.
Well, here's another shithead comment by someone I identified as a spammer, who calls himself summerturner8. He posted this comment twice, which in my eyes, is the mark of a spammer. This was on my "Diets Don't Work" video:
"Wow you are a great spokesperson for why diets DO NOT WORK! rotfl
of course comment pending approval loll omg"
Well, this was my response to him:
@summerturner8 That's right. I aught to know better than anyone. :)
"of course comment pending approval loll omg"
Of course. I can also ban people who spam, like this.... ;) (hits the block user button on summerturner8's name)
Then I went to his channel and told him next time to only hit the reply button once, then he won't be blocked for being a spammer. LOL! I showed him! It looked like from this point on, I was going to have to assert some authority on these people who were telling me how to run my videos and my channel. A lot of these people were calling me "lady", "woman", "fat", blah-blah-blah, you name it, they threw it. LOL! As if that's going to get their point across to me! LOL! Another person, who calls herself kaipirinhaheu, probably the biggest asshole of them all. She even attacked Katrina, who came into my video, and even accused her of being me, which as my friends and family know, is ludicris. Kaipirinhaheu stated that because she could not get Katrina to agree with her on her comments, that she is obese and narrow-minded. LOL! Lots of people think Katrina is obese simply because she is friends with me. But she's not obese. At least what I call 'obese', which is someone like me. Katrina only stands 5 feet tall, and her highest weight was 108 pounds. That to her was fat, it was right after she had her second child. But normally she only weighs about 100 pounds. Kaipirinhaheu is a dumbass that just makes me want to slap her hard! I know I have the option to ban her too. But instead, after she attacked Katrina again for the second time on my channel, I told her
"I will thank you not to attack my friends under my supervision."
Katrina has a right to be there. Katrina is welcome on any of my videos. She stands by me, I stand by her. I stand by all my friends. Kaipirinhaheu is not a friend, and never will be. I'd ban her ass before I let her attack Katrina on my channel again! And for the main reason why I won't listen to most vegans/vegetarians, check out this website by this person. Not so much what she said about her experience being a vegan, but what they said and did to her after she had to stop following a vegan diet, which almost killed her. They threatened her life and the life of her family. Is that right?? I said it before, we look after ourselves. That's nature, that's life. Vegans talk about how eating meat for us is unnatural. Well, it's unnatural for us to care about other species to a point where we sacrifice ourselves. If a wild dog takes a monkey and not a deer, do you think the deer care? If a hyena takes a wildebeest and not a zebra, do you think the zebra care? Is the zebra going to throw it's self in front of a pack of hyenas and say "Here! Take me instead! Leave the wildebeests alone!" No. Why? Because we look out for our OWN. That's just the way it is. Many animal rights activists also argue that we are now civilized and don't have to follow what early humans and apes did. Well, again I ask, is it civilized to threaten to kill someone and their family? I've heard many vegans threaten people who prefer mixed diets with rape, murder, bombing, torture, etc. Is it 'civilized' to do that? I personally don't think so. But if someone can find a way to civilize those actions, let me know. Then we will revert back to apes and cavemen.
But I am keeping an open-mind to both sides. I listen to this friend on Facebook, he does have some informative videos. But there is always something to debate. It's really an on-going vicious cycle though. As I take in more information from their side (I will admit, it wasn't all there when I made that vegetarian video, but that was more addressing PETA and it's tards), I will keep researching both sides as well. Though I gotta say, the milk thing still disgusts me!! LOL!
These people argued that I need to do more research. The thing is, in that video they were commenting on, I was mostly referring to PETA, and all their "research". They were laughing because I mentioned something about cattle passing gas (as if I were the one who originally came up with that). No, I got that theory too from PETA. That's why their laughing at me did not bother me. I felt like they were not laughing at me, they were laughing at PETA, which I do that myself a lot of times. They were like "looking at your body condition, speaking out against veganism, makes us want to go vegan." They can go vegan if they want to. The reason I brought any of those 'ridiculous subjects' up was to mock PETA. Everyone by now knows I do not like PETArds forcing their beliefs on me, giving me their 'research statistics' which have been taken out of context, which is something PETA typically does. PETA hires people who will tell them what they want to hear, and eliminate the people who do research and tell them a mixed diet is better than a strictly vegetarian diet.
The other factor is not everyone can do well on a vegetarian, or vegan, diet. I have met several people who have tried a strictly vegan diet, and did not do too well. Of course I am happy for those who have tried it and did very well. Nobody's results are typical. Just like nobody's tastes are typical. I cannot do well without meat. One reason is one of the biggest contributors of the iron mineral in the vegan world is broccoli. You cannot pay me enough to eat broccoli!!!! I have tried it and I cannot stand it!! I tried it even with some cheese, which should drown out a lot of the flavor, I still hated it!! I can't even stand to smell it cooking. Cauliflower does not bother me, beets are borderline, celery and carrots I adore! I'll even eat lettuce, other leafy greens (as long as they're raw) and cucumbers. But broccoli, avacados, anything that has that metallic taste, I cannot stand it. I puked it back out. It may be my taste buds, but to me, broccoli and avacados have a metallic taste. I won't eat them. You cannot pay me to eat them! I could never become a vegan. Not without taking mass iron replacement supplements. My body is already sensitive to iron and B-12 deficiency. I don't know if that is genetic or not, but if I go without iron and B-12, I quickly become anemic and I more quickly than usual wind down.
There was one person who captured my attention. He came into my video to insult me, but he quickly apologized for his actions, and asked me to become his friend on Facebook. He told me he could save my life. So I invited him. I like to keep an open mind. And since he, himself said I should do more research, I took him up on his offer and invited him to become one of my facebook friends. Vegans like him have a much better chance of converting me than those who throw insults and bullshit. Though, like I said, I could never make it as a vegan. So far he has shown me a couple of interesting videos. One was of a man who is dead at 29 of a heart attack. He started a restaurant that he admitted served food that is not good for you. I say, he knowingly served unhealthy stuff, and he got what he should have got. Another was an hour-long video of a man who has been arrested many times for going overboard standing up for animal rights. While I do not agree with that, he did bring up some interesting facts. For example, the pus in milk. GROSS!!!! He said the FDA allows one eyedropful of pus in the milk taken daily. I will admit that is disgusting. But that is why milk is pasturized, to kill those bacteria. And if it's only an eye-drop-full in all the milk that is taken daily, and it's pasturized, it won't hurt anyone. It's just disgusting to think it's in there. This friend asked me to keep an open mind, so I am. I always like to stay open-minded. But when it comes to PETA, my mind is, by default, closed.
Well, I knew when I took down my discussing vegetarians video, that the nutty vegans would raid my other videos. What they seem to be forgetting, that is my channel! Sure I put my videos out there, but that is my prerogative. My videos reflect my opinions, and my opinion is PETA tells you only half-truths. Yes they are true, to an extent. But PETA is closed-minded to opposing opinions. Ask anyone who has tried to debate with Ingrid Newkirk. I've seen videos of debates with her, and she alienates anyone who presents her with facts from the other side. She interrupts people, she gets rude in all ways, she laughs them off, and you can almost see her ears closing when someone tries to talk to her with facts that blow her beliefs. That is why I don't like her or PETA, and I will not listen to them, or anyone that supports them. At least I am looking at this vegan side with an open mind (with this new friend anyway). The people who are using insults and other bullshit, I will not listen to them. Because I see them to be no different from the PETArds.
I love animals, but I do not believe they have the same rights as we get. It just doesn't work out that way. We look after our own species. It's that way all over nature. Each species looks out for it's own. Sure different species associate with each other, but that's a fluke. Like monkeys and deer. Monkeys do not intentionally follow deer around, nor vice-versa. But the deer like to hang around under the trees where monkeys are hanging out and feeding, because monkeys often drop green leaves that the deer cannot reach. In turn, though it is a favorable accident of nature, deer have a more advanced sense of smell and can actually smell when a predator is nearby. Thus sounding an alarm, which the monkeys have learned to recognize and sense, so they can get to safety fast. But that is the extent of their association. The deer do not sound an alarm for the monkeys. That's just how it works out. It's not being "specieist", it's life. LOL! I remember when Eddie Murphy was the first to quote that word in Dr. Doolittle 2. Good movie! I love Eddie Murphy. In that movie, it was meant to be comical. I was stunned when this man I mentioned, who had been arrested many times for overdoing animal rights activities, used that word in his speech. I was like, "My goodness! That was supposed to be for comedy! Not to be taken seriously!"
Well, the reason I choose not to follow most vegans, whether or not they associate with PETA, is because I have seen how they work. Most of them resort to childish name-calling. Take a look at some shithead comments from some of my videos here from vegan/vegetarians. This first one comes to me from someone who calls herself dstkl96. She commented on Mikessa's video about diet myths. Typical PETArd response (which she all but admitted she is). Ears closed and mouth opened, and taking things out of context:
I think its hilarious you think you are in any way qualified to speak about diets and eating right. Too funny.

The thing she doesn't know is Mikessa is no stranger to hard work and research. She researched literally for days to get the info she got for that video. I know Mikessa very well. Well, dstkl96 does have a degree, a BN in nutrition according to her. A degree at the University of Phoenix, which as most of us know, is a correspondence school. Not saying they are bad, but any school that has to advertise on TV is most likely not accredited. While Mikessa is now in Bozeman, MT at MSU, which is one of the top 10 universities in the country. And as far as I know, she is doing good. Like I said, she is absolutely no stranger to hard work and research. So, I think Mikessa does qualify to give her opinion on that video. Though even I don't understand why she called protein a vitamin when it's not! That was a mistake on her part.

Goodbye Tim Farriss!
No, I am not giving up being a Timmy fan. Never fear! I say goodbye to someone on Facebook who was pretending to be Timmy himself. Even had his e-mail address up on his info page, and everything! This is serious! But to Timmy, who may or may not be reading this, don't worry! I won't bother you. I didn't even take down the e-mail address!! I wouldn't do something like that unless he himself actually gave me permission to. But this person on Facebook, I knew he was NOT the real Timmy all along. There were several reasons that stood out why I didn't believe him. For one thing, he had a picture of Jon as his profile pic. It's so easy to mistake Timmy for Jon if you don't know what to look for. But I can tell the difference almost immediately. It's obvious this person, pretending to be Timmy, could not. But in all fairness, now that Jon and Timmy both have skin-tight hair, it makes it a little harder to tell.
I knew he was not the real Tim Farriss all along, but I figured he must have been an uberfan of Timmy's! So I thought it would be cool to have him as a Facebook buddy. So I invited him. Well, this dude was nice, but he kept saying he was the real Tim Farriss. I never believed him! But he kept maintaining he was, even to other people. There is something wrong with someone like that who maintains he is someone he's not! Especially in a group of friends. Some people actually believed him! That's why this is so wrong on so many levels! Because there are people who are blinded by the novelty of being friends with celebs. This person took advantage of that. Probably because he wanted to be noticed, and he wanted a lot of friends. Some of my friends wouldn't have it at all! Not even him as an uberfan. They were invited by this individual to be friends and they blocked his request. The only reason I invited him to become my friend was because I saw him as just a mega-mega fan.
There is apparently also a latino INXS group on Facebook that thinks they are going to become official. But they never will! One of my friends was in that group and he got threatened because he called them out, and the ringleader of that group said anyone who supports him or agrees with him will get banned from the group. Which I think is stupid!! This friend believes the ringleader is the same person who pretended to be Tim Farriss himself. He could be! I can't say myself because I haven't even visited that group, and I have no plans to! I'll stand by my friends, always! Well the Facebook account this guy called Timothy William Farriss (Timmy's full name) is no longer there. He got deleted. I knew it wasn't going to last personally because people behind the scenes were discussing reporting him, which is always a good idea! It's one thing to be a mega fan, but this chap went too far! I didn't like the fact he put Timmy's e-mail address up without his permission. That made me MAD!!!! But he did have some awesome pics on his page, but that's the only reason I went to his page, for the pics. And also to see the people who posted on there.
There was one girl among his friends, her name is Crystal, she believes anything! LOL! I was not surprised she thought he was the real Tim Farriss, she's dumb as a bucket of bricks!! LMAO! I do NOT like Crystal at all! She thinks she's the smartest person on the face of the planet and that everyone else who doesn't agree with her is stupid or is being unrealistic, but she's absolutely not. She's one of the stupidest and most gullible people I've ever seen in my life. You could go up to her and tell her you'll sell her the Golden Gate bridge for $5 and she'd actually buy it! LOL! There was another page she was on that was labeled Jon Farriss and she actually believed that page was run by him too. LOL! I only like seeing her posts because she makes me laugh at what a fool she is! I have some mutual friends with her, but that's as close as she's ever getting to me! I do NOT want her as a friend!!! She looks down on so many decent people. She thinks she's so smart, when really she seems more to me like she is just slightly bordering on the mentally incompetent line. In fact, I know people with autism and asperger's that are more intelligent (and decent) than she is! I sometimes wonder if she knows how to tie shoes.
I have to wonder about anyone who puts down decent people, or people they do not agree with. Those kind of individuals have no business being among other people. But anyway, I digress. Don't fall for the scams surrounding the band. In truth, the only band member (as I understand it) that does anything with social networks, or even the internet, is Kirk. But even with him, you've got to be careful! I had someone come in this blog a couple years ago and respond to a voiceblog I put up, saying he was Kirk. Or she. LOL! Frankly, I didn't believe it was him. Because first of all, Kirk isn't going to give 2 shits and a damn what I think of him!! I'm just one fan. I can't change the minds of his fans. Just like I really do not believe Timmy cares if I like him or not! I don't believe he gives a damn that I am one of his biggest fans or not. Doesn't matter one way or the other to him. There is really something wrong with someone who is pretending to be someone they are not. I love Timmy, but I would never pretend I was him! I never even pretended to be his wife!! I could never do that. Timmy's wife is a much better-looking woman than I am!! LOL! Speaking of which, I wonder how she is doing?? Last I heard she was diagnosed with leukemia. It'd be nice to know how she is doing now. Believe me, if I thought this Facebook account holder really was Tim Farriss, the first thing I would have asked was how his wife was doing!
Well, this is my first post on my new computer. So, if I make some punctual mistakes, you'll just have to forgive them. I'm still getting used to this keyboard, and my screen being 5 feet away from my face. I spent too long with my laptop sitting in front of me that now I am used to it. I still haven't sold my laptop yet. But believe me, I have given up trying to sell it on Craigslist! Wanna hear something funny? I got a message from someone the other day who said "You should keep your laptop, you have such a negative attitude!" I just responded with a simple "I'm sorry you feel that way, but I got sick of the scammers." I wanted to tell that person to read the ad a little better, and add that I got nothing but scammers asking me to ship this laptop to somewhere, and offering to pay me with phony PayPal accounts. After the 4th time, it gets bullshitty. I would have said that, but my guess was this person was a hit and run troll, and probably would delete my e-mail unread. So, why waste my time. Just send a little somewhat of a thank you note, and come here and talk in detail about it and what I should have said. LOL! :p

Part 3 Scammers!!
I got another message today from someone else interested in the computer I have for sale. But today, I got the jump on this one! The person asked first if I still had the computer for sale and how well it works, and asked me why I am getting rid of it. She also asked me to send her pics. I said I could do that if she is still interested, and yes the computer is still for sale. A few minutes later, she wrote me back about the computer. It was in this letter that she revealed to me again that she is a scammer. She showed all the classic signs of being a part of this PayPal scam. This was the letter she sent me:
Thanks for your reply and am glad to know that it is still available
for sale.However i have few questions on the item you are selling.
1,I would like to know the reason why you are selling it?
2,What is your firm price though am okay with the listing price ?
3,Do you have the original box with the accessories?
4,Do you mind if i pay you through paypal though i would be willing to
add an extra dollars to cover the shipping because am not local at the
moment i am out of town on a rig offshore and i would like to purchase
this item as a gift for someone very special to me at overseas.
If you do not have a PayPal account, you can do so by going to
www.PayPal.com and set up your account it is free,easy and guarantees
transaction safety.Once you send me your
paypal email account, I will send you the payment for your item as
well as US $120 to cover shipping via USPS Registered Mail.
I would be glad if my request is favorably considered.
Thanks
When I got this e-mail, I said to myself, "Ohhhh BROTHER!!! Here we go again!" This is the third scammer that has contacted me about this darned computer! Well, now that I have had a little more experience, I decided to get the jump on this person. I am getting very sick and tired of these damn spammers! Some of the things that identify this person as a scammer are these lines:
"I will send you the payment for your item as well as US $120 to cover shipping via USPS Registered Mail."
"am not local at the moment i am out of town"
Yeah, sure she's not local. She's probably also from Nigeria! Well, I am sick of this. So, this is what I wrote to her:
Hi. Thanks for your reply. Yes, the computer is still available. I am selling it because I am upgrading, and I'm getting a new desktop. The price is not firm, I will entertain offers. I do have the original packaging and all accessories. If you want it, I can give it to you in that. I don't mind PayPal, but you absolutely MUST pay me through PayPal's official site. So far, I have gotten 2 other people from Nigeria, ask me to ship this computer to them, claiming they put money in my account via PayPal. But on closer examination of the supposed e-mails from PayPal, they were discovered to be fraudulent e-mails. Thankfully I know what to look for, and I will NOT in any way, shape or form send this computer to you, unless I actually SEE the money in my PayPal account, which I will check once I get the supposed e-mail. NO EXCEPTIONS! And NO EXCUSES. And I know how to identify spammers right away. If you are truly willing to go ahead with this transaction, you can send the money to XXXXXX@XXXXXXXXXXX.com. Once I get that confirmation, and I see the actual money in my PayPal account, I will send your computer tomorrow. Thank you.
DDR
PS, I know all about the PayPal escrow scam, so please don't try to pull that one on me. :)
Yes, that was the e-mail I sent back to her! LOL! When I sent that e-mail, I did not expect to hear back from her at all! And I didn't. I know for sure she was trying to steal my computer, just like the last two did. But just like the last 2 individual scammers, she was not about to get this computer at all until I actually saw that money in my PayPal account. Don't these dipshits know that an intelligent individual is actually going to check their paypal account and see that the money is not there???? Of course they could also say what the last person said, thinking they could get away with it on a technicality by saying the money is in escrow. Not everyone would think to call PayPal and ask if there even is such a thing as escrow, which is why I am writing about this in this blog. Hopefully people who read this will learn from my experience. I'm a very jaded person! I trust NO ONE! And I pick up on things right away. Which is why I didn't really believe that first scammer when she said the money is in escrow. Though the e-mails did look official, if you know what to look for, you can avoid losing your items you are trying to sell.
Well, this time, I took off the old ad, and decided to edit it with a new ending. This is what my new ad reads on Craigslist:
I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop available for sale. It is a model P305D, with 4 Gigs of RAM. The screen is 15 inches wide, and in 64-bit HD. 250 GB memory. DVD drive (not a recordable). Built in webcam and microphone, and Wi-Fi. Comes with bonus software MS Office Professional 2007 installed. Ideal for students!! Asking $400, but will accept offers! Serious Inquiries ONLY please! Scammers are immediately identified and will not be considered. If you are a scammer, you should know that I didn't just fall off the turnip truck yesterday!! I will not ship to Nigeria, and I will not accept PayPal. I will only accept cash.
This stops the scammers before they start. I hope! So far though I have gotten a couple of responses. Let's see how well it goes.
Thanks for your reply and am glad to know that it is still available
for sale.However i have few questions on the item you are selling.
1,I would like to know the reason why you are selling it?
2,What is your firm price though am okay with the listing price ?
3,Do you have the original box with the accessories?
4,Do you mind if i pay you through paypal though i would be willing to
add an extra dollars to cover the shipping because am not local at the
moment i am out of town on a rig offshore and i would like to purchase
this item as a gift for someone very special to me at overseas.
If you do not have a PayPal account, you can do so by going to
www.PayPal.com and set up your account it is free,easy and guarantees
transaction safety.Once you send me your
paypal email account, I will send you the payment for your item as
well as US $120 to cover shipping via USPS Registered Mail.
I would be glad if my request is favorably considered.
Thanks
When I got this e-mail, I said to myself, "Ohhhh BROTHER!!! Here we go again!" This is the third scammer that has contacted me about this darned computer! Well, now that I have had a little more experience, I decided to get the jump on this person. I am getting very sick and tired of these damn spammers! Some of the things that identify this person as a scammer are these lines:
"I will send you the payment for your item as well as US $120 to cover shipping via USPS Registered Mail."
"am not local at the moment i am out of town"
Yeah, sure she's not local. She's probably also from Nigeria! Well, I am sick of this. So, this is what I wrote to her:

PayPal Scam Warning!
OK, so I am peacefully trying to sell this computer over Craigslist. I tried in my local CL section and got almost zero results. It was disappointing! So I decided to try another area. I tried the Tacoma-Seattle area of Craigslist. I got almost immediate results! I got several inquiries about this computer. I was asking for $400 for this computer, but figured some people may instead offer me $300, which is what usually happens. I expected it. So I entertained offers. Well, this morning I woke up to about 4 messages in my inbox all inquiring about this computer. I answered all of them. Only 2 have written me back, and they wanted to have the computer shipped to them. Well, Craigslist advises against that, but I played along anyway. They both offered me the full price, PLUS an extra $150 for shipping. Sounded reasonable, but I told them I would have to have the money today. As soon as I got that money, I would ship the computer to them.
Well, one of them sent me the money, through their PayPal account. This is why I absolutely HATE dealing with Craigslist!!! So many people taking advantage of one another. The e-mail that was sent had PayPal's official logo. This was what I got:
As you can see, the top of the page looks official, but the body of the letter has too many spaces where there should not be any. Another thing that caught my attention was this guy's address. When I scrolled a lot farther down the page, I saw this:
Notice his address is located in Ife, Osun in Nigeria, and his name is very different than the name he has on his PayPal. Well, I looked up the address, and sure enough it is a verifiable address. But what gets me is the guy lives in Nigeria, and he could not meet me (actually he would have met my ma), but said he was buying this computer for his son who is overseas. OK, I like to give everyone the benefit of the doubt, but I was still iffy on this Nigerian transaction. Something about it felt wrong to me. Then almost immediately after getting this e-mail, I got another one, which also looked official, but said something very different than what I had seen PayPal send:
Again, it looks official with the logo on top of the page, but take a close look at this line:
It said that this person has transferred money to my account, but that it is being held in ESCROW. I didn't know PayPal had ESCROW services! But it said that I will get my money when I provide them with a tracking number that I am supposed to get when I send this computer off. Well, something smelled fishy, and I still sensed something was not right. So, I e-mailed the guy again and told him that I got this message, but that I cannot send him anything until I at least got the money for the packaging and shipping. He kept on demanding that I send the item NOW!!! I told him he will just have to wait. I also told him that I would like to contact PayPal and ask them about this ESCROW service because I never heard of that service before! And it doesn't sound like something PayPal would offer. I didn't hear from him after that. I looked all over PayPal's website and saw nothing about escrow services. I even looked in their Merchant services section and got nothing. So, I called PayPal.
The man I spoke to said that PayPal does NOT have escrow service, that it is nothing but a money exchanging site. I looked closer at the e-mail, and there was something funny. I looked at the e-mail address at the top. This is an official e-mail from PayPal:
That is their OFFICIAL e-mail. Here is what is on the fraudulent e-mail:
Notice there is a difference. You can barely notice it, but there is a period after paypal.com that does not belong there! It just goes to show that you should check the address carefully. Well, when I contacted PayPal, they said they know all about this kind of transaction, and that it is a scam. So please, if you get an email from someone from out of the country, and it's not on ebay, be careful!! Shoot! Even on ebay you have to be careful, look at the ratings from the people who purchase from you. Good buyers will have good feedback. I've got 100% perfect feedback, which means I may be purchasing from out of the country (as I often buy from the UK), but I am a good buyer! I've never scammed anyone.
Well, I e-mailed this guy back and told him that I contacted PayPal, and they told me the e-mail was a scam. So I told him if he would like to send me the money from the official PayPal site, I will be glad to send him the computer. But I warned him that PayPal does not have escrow services. Believe me, I do not expect to hear from him again any time soon!
And remember when CrystalK said on my old MySpace blog that I am so easily misled? LOL! Well, I can seem that way, on the internet. Because I often like to give everyone the benefit of the doubt. Unless I know better. For example, I didn't buy for one second that Mcgillicutty was a 50-something year old man! A teenage boy I would have had an easier time believing, but definitely NOT a 50-something year old man! Men in their 50s generally do not do the things Mcgillcutty did. I've seen 50-odd year old men at their worst, and Mcgillicutty did NOT in any way fit the description. So I knew better than that. CrystalK always wants everyone to think the worst about me because I don't like her. LOL! Which is fine by me! No one decent or intelligent is going to believe her anyway, because she has never met me. And it's her own fault I don't like her, anyway! She should stop acting like such an ass-hat and get rid of her double-standards. I mean, I don't mind people speaking their minds like she does. But she doesn't like to give anyone else the right to do so without her jumping down their throats and cussing them out. That is why I don't like her! I never do that myself! I speak my mind and I like to have others tell me what they are thinking. That is the whole point of having something called 'a discussion'.

INXS Fans Getting A Bit Bullshitty
OK, it finally got to me this morning. LOL! It started this morning when one of my friends was dropped by one of her friends because she does not like JD. I hear stories like that and it makes me wonder what the heck has become of INXS fans?? Why does everyone have to be so damned judgmental? I mean, I have been shit on because I am an INXS fan who mostly (if not entirely) prefers Timmy. And he is still in the band. I realize this is Facebook, and people have a right to be friends with whomever they want! That does not bother me. What bothers me is people who shit on those people they wanted to be friends with in the first place, because that individual does not like the same band members of INXS that they do! It's such a waste! And it's a sad commentary to what INXS fans today have become. Very sad! In fact, sad isn't even a strong enough word to describe how sad that is! It's downright shitty! I have even been shit on because I can't stand Jon Stevens! The whole concept is just pointless to me! I have friends who like Jon Stevens, and I understand where they are coming from. It's their life, it's their choice! All I ask is that these friends understand that I do NOT like Jon Stevens!!
I don't shit on anyone. I try to get along with everyone. If I don't like someone, it's for a damnsite better reason than their choice of favorite INXS band members! In fact, there are even Timmy fans out there that I don't care for. It's rare, but it happens. For the most part though, I try to get along with everyone as much as I can. Those that I do like, I would give them the World if I could! Ask anyone. LOL! It used to be that INXS fans were so easy to talk to and get along with so well. I remember the days when I used to get in the chatrooms, and I would chat with other INXS fans sometimes until well into the night. They were that much fun! But nowadays, INXS fans have become what U2 fans have always been! As one of my friends have put it, they've become tribal. It's sad! But then, looking back to the good ol' days is always deficient. It's not sad in a way that I'd be crying. It's sad more in a way I am just sitting here, shaking my head. Or slamming my forehead with my hand, thinking "stupid people"! LOL! U2 fans used to be the worst! I hated them! Probably why I never became a full-fledged U2 fan in the first place! Their attitude has always been if you don't worship the ground the band walks on, or if you like any other band more than U2, you're lower than dirt! I like U2. They are a good band. Not the best, but good anyway. But I don't effing LOVE them, and I don't prefer them over INXS. That's never going to happen! Bono is just not as good looking as Timmy is. In fact, compared to Timmy, Bono is downright HOMELY!!
Well, it just makes me angry when someone disses a perfectly good person, like this friend of mine, just because she prefers INXS with Michael and doesn't like JD. I like JD, he's good in his own way. But I have to agree he will never be Michael. Michael on the other hand, is dead. He can't come back and front the band anymore. Yet, I still love the band! I love them because of Timmy. I accepted JD with open arms. I'm having a hard time accepting this new album of INXS's, but I love the originals they have done so far. I commend those that have never preferred one over the other in this debate. It's hard to do when you are so used to seeing INXS with no one fronting but Michael. Or if you only just became a fan after JD took over and cannot see anyone else, not even Michael, fronting INXS. But those people who do shit on other fans over this debate, not just about Michael vs. JD. It's about which fans prefer which band members and it makes me SICK!! I have to wonder if INXS is all that runs through their veins. Why does this even have to be an issue? I asked don't these people have more mature things they can disagree on? After a while, it gets bullshitty hearing (or even sensing) that everyone thinks so-n-so sucks because they don't like JD, or whathaveyou! The fact is, I've never seen this kind of attitude until Jon Stevens took over INXS. I must admit I love INXS more now that Jon Stevens has been 86'd! LOL! Good GOD I hate that man! But I don't mind his fans. In my case it's hate the man, not the fans. LOL! Leastwise those that are not so damned judgmental!!

JD Fans And Timmy Fans
Recently I joined this group on Facebook called Groupettes. Anyone who had been reading this blog for any length of time knows that I am a hardcore Timmy fan. I was invited to join this group that celebrates INXS fans in general. Since I love INXS, I joined. And I think the creator of the group is a cool person besides. :) I like her a lot. But this morning, I began to wonder if I was the only person in there that is a Timmy fan. I began to get the feeling that I was once again surrounded by hardcore JD Fortune fans. I have nothing at all against JD Fortune, I think he's a great singer, and I liked meeting him, he's a nice guy. But even knowing all that, I am still not a HUGE fan of JD's. I've been in situations like that before, where everyone around me were all hardcore JD fans and I was alone among hardcore Timmy fans. Case in point, back in 2006 I joined the Hardstar INXS forum. It wasn't until after I joined that dumbass forum that I found out I was the only Timmy fan in there. Everyone else was a JD fan! That sucked! Because I can remember there were some people bashing me and my interest in Timmy. That was what made me decide to leave. They bashed at me, so I bashed right back.
Don't get me wrong, I like JD. But I LOVE Timmy! In my eyes, JD isn't even a fraction as handsome as Timmy is. But these people kept trying to convince me that Timmy wasn't as good looking as JD. I can't agree with that! My interest in JD is strictly professional. That is, I only like his singing. I have friends who absolutely HATE JD! They hate JD almost as much as I hate Jon Stevens. But hey! I'm good with that. They are individuals and they have a right to like who they want. As does everyone else in this group. But I was almost ready to leave because I thought I was once again the only Timmy fan in there. I didn't want to go through the experience I had in the Hardstar forum again. I should not have to defend myself to anyone. Of course I know I don't have to anyway! I don't have to explain myself to no one! And now that I know better, I don't. Unless they are well-established friends. Most of the people I don't give a shit about, I have them on ignore. Don't worry, I don't believe they care anyway. So move on! hehe!
Well, it was nice to hear there actually were other Timmy fans in there. That was real good! I cannot fit in in a forum that only has hardcore JD fans. No matter how hard I try. And believe me, I did try hard! That's probably the one thing I hate most about most JD fans. They seem to not be able to accept that other people cannot see everything the way they do. There are a few JD fans I have a great deal of respect for, one of them being my little sis, Katrina. But definitely none of those that thinks just because I am not a hardcore JD fan that I am not a real INXS fan. I think I like JD about as much as I like Michael. I still like him, but not as much as I like Timmy. Face it. Timmy is all I have on my mind when I think of INXS. He's all I see. Well, I also like Jon and Andrew. Heck! I like all the guys! But in different ways. But my love for Timmy is dominating. Even though I am pretty sure he doesn't like me. LOL! Here we go again! I mean, does it really matter if he doesn't? Naaaah!! But even if he said it to my face, I'd probably still like him a lot. LOL!
Now, when I say I like him, I don't mean that I want to steal him away from his wife and kids and marry him for myself! No-no-no! I like Timmy, but not that much!! Anyone who thinks otherwise doesn't know the real me, and has a sub-humanian lack of intelligence! I would never sacrifice my freedom, not even for Timmy.
Speaking of which, I no longer have a boyfriend! I knew it was a mistake to tell him that I was moving to Montana! Well, I found out he's been secretly seeing another woman behind my back! I'm not mad at her, I am mad at him! He didn't even tell her that he was seeing me. When I confronted him about it, his only response was "Well, you're moving to Montana anyway." I called him a dumbass and walked away. If he thinks I am going to give him another chance, he's going to be in for a big disappointment!! I don't think I want another boyfriend either. I've had it! I don't know what I am trying to prove anyway! I don't want to get married, and I don't want kids either. So really, what's the point anymore in having a boyfriend? Well, one consolation is that my family stated they never liked him anyway.
Don't get me wrong, I like JD. But I LOVE Timmy! In my eyes, JD isn't even a fraction as handsome as Timmy is. But these people kept trying to convince me that Timmy wasn't as good looking as JD. I can't agree with that! My interest in JD is strictly professional. That is, I only like his singing. I have friends who absolutely HATE JD! They hate JD almost as much as I hate Jon Stevens.

Anyone who thinks otherwise doesn't know the real me, and has a sub-humanian lack of intelligence! I would never sacrifice my freedom, not even for Timmy.
Speaking of which, I no longer have a boyfriend! I knew it was a mistake to tell him that I was moving to Montana! Well, I found out he's been secretly seeing another woman behind my back! I'm not mad at her, I am mad at him! He didn't even tell her that he was seeing me. When I confronted him about it, his only response was "Well, you're moving to Montana anyway." I called him a dumbass and walked away. If he thinks I am going to give him another chance, he's going to be in for a big disappointment!! I don't think I want another boyfriend either. I've had it! I don't know what I am trying to prove anyway! I don't want to get married, and I don't want kids either. So really, what's the point anymore in having a boyfriend? Well, one consolation is that my family stated they never liked him anyway.

The Removal of Free Speech
I rarely now go into the pet forums on Craigslist, mostly because I notice a lot of the topics I have posted on get deleted. This morning I read a topic about someone who occasionally posts on that forum, the people on there were chewing him up to pieces! Which really is such typical behavior on pet forums. The guy made a joke he thought was harmless. The joke was about his pit bull killing a pet prairie dog, but it was intended to be a gag. However, no one else thought it was funny. Apparently, this same guy who made the joke had been on other forums, made bad jokes, was generally abusive to everyone, and often went into the forums in a drunken state. Hmm, kinda reminds me of someone I used to know from the Pluba forums! LOL! She was abusive when she didn't get her way, she was often not very funny, and I would swear she would go into the forums drunk sometimes! Yet, others in there excused her because they were her friends, and being drunk was excusable because alcoholism is an illness. (cough)
I may be not so funny to some, but offhand, I can only remember being banned from one forum, and that forum didn't count! It was the delusional mods forum, and I wanted to be banned from there! I intentionally spammed their forum because I knew it would get me banned. I didn't ever want to go back there, and I did not want people thinking I enjoyed it in there. Ya know the funny thing is, I tried looking for that forum again, and it's not there. There is a delusional fans website, but it centers around sports fans, not INXS, U2 or Depeche Mode fans like the one run by Catsredrum and Netrage did. That's kinda funny! Because ol' Netrage told me that he would never take that forum down. Guess I won the battle there. Well! It served them right! They should never have messed with me! They could mess with a lot of people on the internet, but not me. Because I'll take their shit and throw it right back in their faces if I have to! When I tell someone to back off, they'd better do it. I can be polite the first couple of times, but after that, I can begin to get nasty. The final straw was them trying to accuse me of killing my Groucho. They didn't say it in those exact words, but they did say it in a round-about kind of way, and the message was received loud and clear! That pissed me off, and that was when I said "this has got to stop!" and began my fight against the delusional fans forum! They were damn lucky they were not standing in the same room with me and saying that. They would have been on their asses.
Anyway, I think I bring up some very good points, and it is proven when people neg the crap out of my posts! LOL! The negs to me are a badge of honor. They tell me I am doing my job. The other day, someone posted on the forum looking for doberman pups. Another poster made a comment, something to the effect of that no responsible breeder would touch the OP with a 12-foot pole. I saw that as a great opening, because I feel that is the problem with the so-called responsible breeders. I said "It is exactly that attitude that will always keep the BYBs in business. Because if a person is desperate enough, and wants a breed bad enough, they will go to any lengths to get it." And it's true! And you really cannot blame them! I'm shocked that no one argued my point there. Surely the responsible breeders should have said something in response to that! Sure, they could argue the OP could get the breed they want from a rescue, but where do most rescues come from? 9 times out of 10, they come from the BYBs. It's a vicious cycle. Instead of reputable breeders refusing to sell someone a puppy of the breed they want, try educating them on the breed. Let them know the good and bad points of a breed. Then have the buyer sign a contract (made legally), and sign in front of a notary, that way the client HAS to abide by the rules in the contract. That is the best way.
Well, instead of responses, people began negging my post. I said to them "Neg me all you want, but I speak the truth!" ("Negging", BTW, is short for giving someone negative points. The posts on that forum are often rated by other posters). Well, the next day I noticed that post was gone. Why it was gone, I have no idea. I'm beginning to think anyone who speaks the absolute, honest-to-goodness truth gets their posts deleted because these people don't really care to hear the truth. I speak from experience. I haven't had a problem with having reputable breeders not selling to me, as most people who meet me in person, actually like me. Even though I bad-mouth show breeders. I'm a much different individual in life than I am on my blogs here. Or even on forums. But anyway, I haven't had a problem but I have known people who did. And usually for some silly reason. Like the one friend I had who wanted to buy a kitten, and the breeder would not sell to her because she didn't have a fenced yard. There had to have been some other reason that the breeder didn't tell her! There always is! Like the breeder didn't like the color of this person's shirt or something! I don't know. But the real reason could not have had anything to do with the fact this friend lived in an apartment and didn't have a fenced yard! Because that would have been a dumb reason not to sell someone a kitten! A dog, I could understand! But a cat?? No! Because here's a newsflash: Cats can CLIMB! They can jump. Even with a 7-foot tall wooden fence all around our yard when we lived in Lakewood, our cat still got out of the fence! Nothing could stop him! He'd find a way out.
Well, how about those videos of animals that hate Justin Beiber? That's the weirdest damn thing I ever saw! I'll tell you, if animals don't like you, there's something wrong with you! Animals can sense things that humans cannot. If they sense there is something bad or evil about someone, then there is really something bad! I wonder what it is with Justin Beiber? Only time will really tell. I get along great with animals. I've even been able to approach animals that no one else has ever been able to approach! I remember when I had a job with the census group. One of the homes I had to stop at the man had a big rottweiler. This rottweiler was a trained guard dog. While I usually do not touch these dogs without getting to know them first, this dog actually seemed to like me, which got me funny looks from the owner because he said his dog normally does not like strangers. Once he told me that, I was amazed! The dog wasn't jumping on me or anything, but he would nudge my hand with his nose and wag his tail. He still kept an aire of suspicion about me though, but at the same time, seemed to like me. That wasn't the only time that happened either. To me, it's just the most rememberable because it was a rottweiler that didn't know me at all, and had been trained for guarding the house and family. Those dogs are usually very aggressive.
I love animals, I always have. I still do. I'm more cautious around animals but I still love them. I can't think of a time I didn't have a pet, but I can remember a lot of times I had to fight to keep what I did have! Because my parents did not like pets. My ma still doesn't, but she tolerates the dogs, only because living here with me, she has no choice.
Anyway, I hate being in places where my basic rights of free speech is taken away. That is why I love these blogs! I can live without getting in forums, but I cannot live without my blogs! Blogging is fun! They are my release. It is because of what I write in these blogs that I am able to remain calm in my every day life. Writing for me is a kind of relief of my innermost feelings. So, you can understand why I don't like being in places that take away my rights to say what I feel. People may not like what I say on here, but that's OK. I'm not asking for their acceptance. The only people who matter to me are my friends and family. The people I love most are those who can read these blogs, and still know that deep inside, I am a great person. That's why I say I have the most awesome friends on the planet! I brag a lot about my Facebook friends. LOL! But it's true! They are the most awesome people on the planet! Well! One person is questionable, but for the most part, they are awesome.

What Is It With Pets and Justin Beiber?
This is crazy! Pets around the world HATE Justin Beiber! It's the strangest thing I ever saw in my life! I don't know why. I kinda joked around that Beiber must be the antichrist! But he looks so nice and friendly. But pets around the World hate him! They say animals are good judges of character. I know his music sucks shit, but I didn't think animals could get so angry at music or photos in magazines. But tonight alone, I saw like 10 videos of animals that had a wild, negative response to seeing, or hearing, Justin Beiber! I will show you a few of these videos. And believe me, I don't believe these were staged! There are some that I think have been, but not these videos! These are the most explanatory videos on this subject. Take a look at these from beginning to end:
Check out this pomeranian's immediate response once the Beiber song plays:
And most amazing of all, check out this cat's response:
I say this last one was amazing, because the cat was shown a picture of Nick Jonas and didn't care, but when the page was turned back to Justin Beiber, the cat hissed and slapped the magazine. There is something about Justin Beiber that animals don't like! It kinda makes me wonder, if Beiber has pets of his own and they also hate him?

Animal Hoarders
What would you do? I was watching Animal Hoarders on Animal Planet last night. The new episode looked at a woman who kept buying birds, mostly hookbills, and keeping them in her home in large cages. When she was asked to surrender some of the birds, she surrendered the only set of finches she had, which I thought that sure was dumb of her!! I'd have kept the finches! Get rid of the damn parrots! I have nothing personal against parrots, as long as they live with someone else, and I don't have to touch them. They are indeed pretty birds, and I am not saying there aren't some friendly hookbills out there, but I don't trust them! I mean, this woman's house was FULL of big hookbills! If she would have kept the finches and got rid of the big hookbills, she would have served the purpose of the therapy she was receiving.
Parrots bite, and bite HARD!! Their bills are designed to break open very hard nut shells with ease. So if they can crush a nut shell, there is no doubt that they can crush your finger bones as well. This woman, according to her daughter, has already been hospitalized four times due to parrot bites. The first time would have been enough to tell me that keeping parrots is not for me! I'd have stuck with finches. They are smaller, don't need much room, don't need a heck of a lot of attention, eat less, dump less, are much easier to clean up after, and if they do bite you, they don't bite hard enough to break the skin. The hardest biting finch I ever had was an orange bishop weaver. It bit like a small wrench pinching me. They hold on tighter than other finches, but they still don't break the skin. Large parrots do break the skin, and can break your bones too. That's why I don't trust them. Smaller parrots, like budgies, grass keets, and lorikeets, are fine. I wouldn't mind them so much, but those big hookbills, like cockatoos, macaws and conures, I don't trust them at all! They may be pretty to look at, but I always hesitate to touch one. Even if I know the bird. I have a friend who has an African gray parrot, and it is a beautiful bird, and he plays with it, it takes crackers and brazil nuts from his mouth, and is a generally friendly bird. He would let me pet the bird, but I never want to. Looking at it is one thing. Touching it is something I would never do!
I thought it was stupid of that woman to give her finches up! Those were the ones I would have kept. I would have got rid of the large hookbills! They are a bear to clean up after! She had crap caked on the bottoms of those parrot cages. Parrots attract rats to your house too, because of the food they eat, pretty much the same things rats like eating. Parrots are noisy, require a lot of attention, generally are expensive to care for. They are basically like monkeys as pets. Why they are still legal to keep and monkeys are not, I will never understand! Parrots do have a plus side. They can become affectionate. But the way I don't trust them, they would go insane at my home. I might talk to them, but I would never make any physical contact with them. That's why I don't have any large hookbills, and I have no plans to get one in the near to forseeable future. Possibly never ever will get one. They need contact with humans. I like finches. Maybe you cannot really handle them, though I have heard of some people who have held them, like others held parakeets. But finches are beautiful, make cute little sounds, and are fun to watch flying around in their cages. I still have plans to get some finches. I love them!
I have never been in a hoarding situation before myself. The closest I ever came was I once had 9 dogs at one time. But I was able to care for them easily. I was younger then though. Now, I know my limits. I only have 3 dogs. While I would like to have more, I know I can't. 3 is my absolute limit with dogs now. Though I would not mind having other pets too. I plan on getting some small birds. mostly finches and smaller softbills. I'd also like to have a fish tank again. And I'd also like to have more snakes, lizards and other herps. It'd be cool! Someday I would also like to have some small exotic animals. I'd like to get some spiny mice again, like I had before. But I would never get myself in a situation where I am hoarding animals. Because I am totally aware of where my limit in animals stands.

Beavis and Butthead Are Returning!
YES!!! I was looking through the internet and I found some good news. Beavis and Butthead are coming back to MTV!! I am so excited to hear that. Now, Katrina and I can start discussing the new episodes again. I kinda hope they also run some of the classic episodes at the same time as well. The new episodes are due to come out this summer. I have MTV, so I need to stay tuned and find out when and what days. I first saw the show when it came out in 1993, and it was fun then! I remember though at first I was a bit apprehensive about seeing this show. I heard some bad things about it, and I was afraid it was going to be another crappy-suck cartoon like Ren and Stimpy! But I got curious one night. The very first episode I ever saw was one titled Buff N' Stuff, and it made me laugh so hard, especially when Butthead mentioned Popeye, which he mentioned twice on that episode! I love Popeye! So from then on I was hooked on Beavis and Butthead. I take great pains in trying to find some of the classic episodes today, WITH the video commentaries intact! They are basically worthless without them! I managed to find some on YouTube with the music videos intact. But most people take the videos out, which I think is DUMB! That's the way Beavis and Butthead were meant to be seen, is with video commentaries. In some episodes, the video commentaries are the funniest part of the whole episode! The episode it's self may be boring, there are a few like that. Then you get into the parts where Beavis and Butthead are sitting in front of the TV and speaking their minds on what they see in the videos, and you laugh out loud!!! In those boring episodes, that may be the ONLY time you might laugh.
I am right now trying to turn some CD-ROMs I got with Beavis and Butthead episodes on them (SOME have videos intact) and switch them over to DVDs. It's taking all day, but the end result will be worth it. I also have some on VCD, which I am trying to get rid of. It's not easy. I got the Mike Judge Collection, but I hardly ever watch it! I spent over $100 for that collection, and the episodes do not even have the video commentaries intact!! Makes me MAD!! They have some videos, shown separately from the episodes, but that isn't worth shit! I want ALL episodes, with ALL videos intact! That's how the show was meant to be seen. And the only way it should be seen! And I am not the only one who feels that way.
Well, apparently these new episodes that will be coming out have video commentaries, so I said I will watch them. What I hope is that Mike Judge does NOT have too many episodes where Beavis wants to act out as that Cornpolio character! Or Cornholio or whatever the Hell he calls himself! I HATE those episodes!! Those are episodes that I would never care to see again! I don't think this Cornpolio act Beavis puts on is funny at all. It's just plain corn-stupido. I realize Beavis and Butthead are supposed to be stupid, but my GOD!! Get rid of the Cornpolio act!! That goes way beyond stupid, corny and boring!! All Beavis does during his Cornpolio act is give his head a wedgie, raise his arms up, and says the same shit "I AM CORNPOLIO!" and "I NEED TP FOR MY BUNGHOLE" and constantly over and over and over again talking about his butthole in the same manner. It gets boring hearing the same thing over again on the same show! That was the one thing I hated about their movie Beavis and Butthead Do America, was Beavis putting on that act and singing "BUNGHOLIOOOOOOOOOOO-OOOOO-OOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!" That scene lasted way too long! If it wasn't for Robert Stack's contribution to that scene, I would skip through it to the end of the movie. I hope there won't be too much of that in these new episodes. But I am glad they are bringing back video commentaries!
The last time Beavis and Butthead ran, which I think was either last year or the year before, I noticed they had 4 episodes in a 30-minute period. I knew what that meant, it meant they cut out the video commentaries! It was only then that MTV decided they were going to run the really classic episodes! Such as Washing the Dog, and Citizen Butthead! Both of which I would like to see again WITH video commentaries intact. That is why I am hoping MTV also runs some of the classics, the way they were MEANT to be seen; WITH video commentaries!

That was the one thing I hated about their movie Beavis and Butthead Do America, was Beavis putting on that act and singing "BUNGHOLIOOOOOOOOOOO-OOOOO-OOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!" That scene lasted way too long! If it wasn't for Robert Stack's contribution to that scene, I would skip through it to the end of the movie. I hope there won't be too much of that in these new episodes. But I am glad they are bringing back video commentaries!
The last time Beavis and Butthead ran, which I think was either last year or the year before, I noticed they had 4 episodes in a 30-minute period. I knew what that meant, it meant they cut out the video commentaries! It was only then that MTV decided they were going to run the really classic episodes! Such as Washing the Dog, and Citizen Butthead! Both of which I would like to see again WITH video commentaries intact. That is why I am hoping MTV also runs some of the classics, the way they were MEANT to be seen; WITH video commentaries!

Am I Alone?
Is it just me or is Heath Ledger one UGLY dude???? He looks a lot like Leonardo DiCaprio, only with his eyes grown much closer together. There are people out there who actually think Heath Ledger was "hot", and I look at him and think to myself "What about him is hot?" I look and I see nothing. He may have had a great figure, but it's ruined by his hiddeous face! And up until I saw him, I used to think all Australians were good looking. He proved different. Everyone liked his version of the Joker better than Jack Nicholson's. I have to say, Jack Nicholson was by far the better version of the Joker! Heath Ledger's looked too fake. And he wasn't the "think he's funny" type at all. He was more serious. I saw the Dark Knight, finally, and frankly I didn't care for Ledger's version of the Joker. It might have been better if he had better make-up like Nicholson did. But all Ledger had for a smile was red lipstick. I would think with today's better technology they would give him a bigger smile like they gave to Jack Nicholson. Would have made Ledger's Joker more believable. But I will hand him this, he did seem to have talent. And it is kinda sad he's dead at such a young age.
I wonder why it is the ugliest people are the most talented? I thought I was alone in that department. I mean, I may be ugly, but I have great talent in a lot of things. Anything I can put my mind to do, I can do it. Maybe not perfect at first, but I can get a good lead going. Heath Ledger was ugly as shit, but he was a talented dude. I don't blame him because his make up sucked. But I just don't see him as the "better version of the Joker". Certainly NOT better than Jack Nicholson was. Then there is Jon Stevens, a guy who used to sing with INXS. He's ugly and fuggly and anything in between! I personally don't even think he had any talent. But other INXS fans do. I see a lot of INXS fans have had their pic taken with him. To see Jon Stevens is a shock to my system! Makes me cringe in disgust! That's how ugly he is to me. Remember Barney Rubble on the Flintstones? Jon Stevens looks just like him, only with longer hair. His head starts at a point and then gets very wide at the chin, he has no neck, and he's got them beady, close-together eyes. He's what I call UGLY!! But every other INXS fan thinks he's wonderful. I couldn't have stood next to him though to have my pic taken. I'd have been afraid he'd have broke my camera lens. And I heard his ego being so almighty was the reason he is no longer singing with INXS.
Speaking of big egos, there was this person on the pet forum, who calls herself SavannaCat, and she gave me the best laugh the other night. Not with her, but at her. Apparently she was pissed off at Animal Planet because she tried out for a part in the series "Confessions: Animal Hoarding" and didn't get the part! LOL!! She made me laugh so hard with the way she got all ballistic and threw a little hissy-fit on the forum, whining "Oh they lied to me!" and yadda-yadda! She was like a spoiled 10-year old, claiming that Animal Planet owed her some kind of restitution! I don't think Animal Planet asked her to apply for their show, it was strictly voluntary. And it still is! So really she had no reason to get so angry. But anyway, that was my entertainment for that night, watching her go ballistic on a forum like that. It was too funny! Next thing I know, she's attacking the people on the forum because she didn't get chosen to be on that show! LOL! The more I read about her (after she told her whole lifes' story to the forum), the more I realized why she was acting this way. She really is spoiled. She said herself she doesn't hide the fact that she is. She's probably had everything in life handed to her, never working a day in her life. Oh well, let's be fair! She probably did have to work hard to get those tears, screams and whimpers going as a young child, to get that favorite doll or kitten she wanted. But that was probably the only work she did! She apparently owns 9 homes, breeds savanna cats (which I think look hiddeous), attends shows (another lanky show breeder), and rescues cats. More likely she probably breeds savanna cats to make money off them. I do know one of those cats runs about $20,000 (NOT worth it, IMO) and they are not recognized by any major cat registry so they cannot be shown.
I think paying $20,000 for ANY cat is stupid! Not when you can get a great purebreed cat for about $1000. I've seen siamese for about $1500, and they looked GREAT!!! I would NEVER pay $20,000 for a cat that I think is too ugly to live anyway. For all I care, that $20,000 cat can rot at the breeder's house! It's crazy to pay that much for a cat! And savanna cats can turn on their owners too. So, is it worth $20,000 to have something like that in your house that can attack you on a dime? I don't think so! That's why I think paying that much, for an UGLY cat, is dumb, stupid and senseless! Take $50 and rescue a nice kitty from a shelter, or if you want it, take $1500 and buy a good siamese from a good breeder! That's what I'd do!
