Spencer Posted March 19, 2004 Report Posted March 19, 2004 Sometimes people cannot convey there feelings correctly in text. Which leaves a lot for the reader to determine. Give the poster the benefit of the doubt, and make your arguments with the courtesy and respect you would like to be given. Misunderstandings and miscommunication happen so easily on discussion boards so lets just take that into consideration when replying to someone you thought may have offended you. I appreciate it =) Spencer Quote
Guest Starsky Posted March 19, 2004 Report Posted March 19, 2004 I agree. :) and I will try to be good. :) Quote

Is your rabies vaccination current?2. Where?Kay LOL...this just reminded me of the poor little squirrel my dog destroyed the other day. He has been chasing this little thing around the yard and under the wood pile all winter...he finally caught the thing two days ago...Now we have to worry about rabies...He has had his shots...does anyone know if that is enough?

Ray Posted December 8, 2006 Report Posted December 8, 2006 Is it enough to give your dog a vaccine and a few shots and then hope that is enough to keep it living? I think that's what you're asking, but why are you asking us? It's your dog, after all. Not mine. But if I were you, and I'm not, thank God, I would also give it enough food and water. ... and enough of your love, in enough of a shelter, to help to try to keep it alive. That might not be enough, but it might be all you can do. ... and in that case I would then say it is enough. ... and ... psst ... remember ... this topic is about misunderstandings. :) Quote
Maureen Posted December 8, 2006 Report Posted December 8, 2006 ... this topic is about misunderstandings. :)Ray, you do understand that you're replying to a post that's almost 3 years old.M. Quote

Ray Posted December 8, 2006 Report Posted December 8, 2006 What makes you think that I think that she is? ... psst ... this topic is about misunderstandings. :) Quote
Maureen Posted December 8, 2006 Report Posted December 8, 2006 What makes you think that I think that she is?Well, why answer someone if you're not sure if they're still around; especially if they've been gone for years?M. Quote

Jason Posted December 9, 2006 Report Posted December 9, 2006 Pretty sad the board is so dead that members are looking up years old threads to liven things up. ZZZZZZ Quote
Ray Posted December 9, 2006 Report Posted December 9, 2006 Heh, you think that's bad? I think it's pretty sad the board is so dead that members are criticizing other members who are looking up years old threads to liven things up. ZZZZZZ Quote
StrawberryFields Posted December 10, 2006 Report Posted December 10, 2006 I just noticed this thread. This is what I am talking about in my "Shift" thread. Quote

prisonchaplain Posted December 11, 2006 Report Posted December 11, 2006 Don't confuse an ebbing with a "dried up and died, but didn't have the decency to crawl in the grave" kind a thing. :-) Quote
pushka Posted December 11, 2006 Report Posted December 11, 2006 Strawberry, Don't worry about this site...I still find plenty of interesting stuff to read here, even if I don't post in many of the threads that I read. I have a message board of my own and it is really struggling!!! I sometimes think I will just abandon it, then somebody new joins or posts something and I just have to keep it going...I wish it was half as busy as this place!! Quote

Outshined Posted December 11, 2006 Report Posted December 11, 2006 Personally I thought it was pretty funny that Ray was able to take such an old thread and make it one of the livelier threads on the board... Quote
