There are no "but"s, Dave. My condolences, it must be tough to live life akin to a crowded rat, not from any sense of reason, but from an inability to look past the fray and find a sense of joy in things around you.
Pity ...

3.5 miles. It's the nearest store to my house. I'm covered!
Lemme guess: Liberal? (No, silly, the lady.)

Yeah, they're good.

Kind of an insulting comment Karl, but you're partially right. I certainly have a cynical view of many things and I know it. It's not from an inability to look past things, but from a sense of experience. But (and it's my but to use not yours to dismiss) I do find enjoyment in a number of things.
One of those things is the woodworking I do. It's limited in the fact that I do it on a work bench in my living room. I'm unable to find an accessible location near my home that I can share or rent to set up a better workshop. That's the fly in the ointment since I've been looking for some place for well over fifteen years.
I mention this on occasion mainly to remind people that I am looking for some place should they happen to know of one. And, the fact that I'm always looking demonstrates that I am able to look past the fray for something better.
The word hadn't been invented yet ..
It was probably "Commie!" back then.

You mean like this (smiley or no):

The word "but" negates the assertion that precedes it.
Precisely why I said "no buts".
When did you change your name?
I probably wouldn't have said it like that, but I understand where Dave is coming from. Twice I've lived next to people in residential neighborhoods that had Basset Hounds, and I'm convinced those dogs just aren't happy in that type of environment. I almost lost my damned MIND with all the racket those dogs made, and the owners NEVER had any consideration for how their continuous barking affected their neighbors. Some breeds of dogs (and some breeds of humans) just weren't meant to live in a suburban setting.
Like pit bulls don't all kill babies, Bassets aren't all nuisance barkers. I've raised two Bassets and neither one of them had a barking problem.
I'm not denying the propensity of certain breeds, but that is totally irrelevant to the discussion at hand, except to say that running such rabbit trails was something that particular Basset was damned good at. :)
Dogs are only as good as their masters. If they are trained properly when pups and properly cared for as adults, they will behave. Unfortunately, as with kids, most a-holes raise a-holes. :-)
Actually, I've never known anyone that had a basset hound. It was (apparently to you) a poor attempt at humour which *should* have been accepted as such because of the smiley two lines down.
You commented once before when I mistook one of your attempts at humour as being serious. I suggest this time you go have a look in the mirror.
I don't think a lot of people realize how truly evil Monsanto is. I'm lucky to live in a rural area with lots of farmers markets and access to organic produce from the farm as well as grass fed beef. Eggs available from neighbors.
