My list of gripes

I'm a person whose feathers are easily ruffled. The older I get, the more mellow I get though. Believe me, that's a good thing. Here are some things that bother me now: #1. If I ask my husband to get something out of my purse (carmex, inhaler, xanax, etc) instead of just getting it he brings my whole purse to me. WHY! He acts like there's a rat trap in there. #2 Why do Lincoln's look like economy cars now? Lincoln's are supposed to be luxury cars. Don't say it's because gas has gone up, if you can afford a luxury car, you should be able to afford the gas. #3 If you've never been attacked by a dog, why are you afraid of them? I hate people who are afraid of dogs but have never been attacked. If you've been attacked, I totally understand your fear but if you're just afraid of dogs for no good reason, you should be shunned from society. #4 Why are grown people afraid of small dogs? I can understand seeing one of my dogs coming toward you and being apprehensive, but if a Teacup Poodle is coming towards you and you're knocking down children and old people to run away you should never be allowed to leave your house. #5 People who don't understand the current war. I'm a yellow dog Democrat and I'm proud to be one, but Saddam Hussein was an Imp of the devil and so were his f***ed up sons. Okay so G. W. lied and so did his whole administration but the 3 of them and all their allies needed to be "dealt with". If you don't know why I say that, do your research. #6 If you don't think Saddam Hussein at least knew something about 9/11, you're a fool. #7 If you don't believe the Government is always up to "no good", again I say, you're a fool. #8 WHY ARE PEOPLE WATCHING REALITY TV?!!! You should be stoned to death. #9 Dogs, Cats and Horses are the only animals that should be called pets. If you own anything from the rodent family that is not a pet, that is a pest! Your house has pests and you need an exterminator. That also goes for snakes and lizards. Try taking your fish out for a walk and see how much fun that is. If a burglar breaks into your house, lets see what your parakeet does to defend you. #10 Don't believe that your children don't need a whooping every so often. I see the commercials of the Nanny 911 show(I DO NOT WATCH IT), where the children are completely out of control. They hit their parents and cuss them out. If that was my show, every episode would be the same. I would take the parents outside and show them how to pick a switch. Then when the child started to act out, I'd show the parent the proper way to break that child's bad habits. You don't need to whoop your kids all the time. If they get one good whooping with a switch, it only needs to be done every 3 months or so.

Ginger

My current breeding female Dane and dog companion is Ginger. She has a really sweet and easy going temperament. She's completely unflappable. However, there is a problem with Ginger. She's obsessive compulsive. She has to turn around clockwise then counter clockwise exactly seventeen times before she lays down. My aunt says I'm obsessive compulsive for counting how many times she turns around. Ginger also has a staring problem. She will stare at me or Brian to the point that it makes you uncomfortable and we have to tell her to stop looking at us. She will also stand in the middle of the floor doing nothing for as long as twenty minutes. It's almost like she's having some kinda spell. Not only do I attract weird people, I also attract weird animals.
