    Oh yeah, I must send in my 50 to the hooker for Daniel fund. If it is a gift he will have to accept it graciously. Daniel, they can provide what is called a "girlfriend experience" apparently it's nice and just like the real thing but they don't make you take out the garbage or chase mice.

    When you call a dog, they come.
    When you call a cat, they take a message and get back to you when they're ready.

    I love my cat, Nina, and her black furriness. Just this morning I rubbed her belly and walked outside where there were two people walking their dogs and picking up poop with their hands inside bags. Gross. Regardless of the temperature and weather condition Nina never has to go outside. And she never drools.

    I like snakes and turtles. Frogs and toads are pretty good too.

    Here is a photo of my boy Zeb:

    I would not turn down a prospective girlfriend just because she's a hooker. But I would urge her to take up a safer line of work.

    Apology accepted, because you're so cute. :wub:

    Picture of me with snake. The backdrop is fake, but the python is alive and real.

    We haven't yet officially determined which in the avatar is actually Octavia.

    We don't know whether the user name "Octavia" is the pretty lady's real name, or if she uses the doggy's real name as her on-line user name; but we do know that the one posting under the user name "Octavia" is the pretty lady, and not the doggy.

    Of course, the internet being what it is, we don't know if the posted pictures are the real person posting, or just a photo clipped from somewhere; nor do we know if the doggy in the picture is really her doggy or was borrowed from a friend in order to deceive us regarding the true identity of the pooch.

    It's even possible that the person posting under the user name "Octavia" clipped the picture from someone who borrowed a dog operating under an alias in order to fool unsuspecting people into thinking it was her dog, and the user name of the poster was selected under the delusion that the picture was of a person with a dog named "Octavia" when in fact the dog's real name is Clytemnestra. :confused:

    But I'll stand by my original comment. Or anyway, I would if I could remember what it was...

    I have no desire to mislead people although I understand the need for general wariness in regards to the internet and getting to know who people *really* are.
    Octavia is not my birth name, although it has been my dance/internet/username/SCA/gaming alias for a very very long time. I answer to Octavia almost as quickly if not quicker than my birth name. :)

    Dog owner 4 life. I like cats, but first my mom was/is allergic to cats growing up and today, so is my wife. Works for me, as cats don't retrieve ducks/grouse/pheasant (let alone walk back and forth in front of you to get them up).

    My 2nd choice is not listed. Rats! I had rats in college and after and I loved having them around. Unlike hamsters/gerbils, they are really smart and quite affectionate, As they get older and lazier, they bond with you better than a cat.

    The only downside with rats are their knack for chewing and getting into places they shouldn't. You really need a designated "rat proof" room with furniture you don't care about.

    That's because we all know that Tony hates cats. :)

    No love for ferrets at all?

    Hmmm, somebody taking credit for my sinister idea

    They're highly overrated, trust me on that

    I really should post a photo of one of my cats many litter boxes, before the mandatory twice-a-day scooping.

    My older cat DOES drool. But only when he's sound asleep

    Is that before or after the mandatory shedding-of-the-reptile-skin?

    A guy I knew in the Army had a couple of ferrets. Their fur is soft and silky, and they can be friendly if they want to be. But don't get them mad!
