Glad you're not my neighbor
And Pogues is dead-on correct with his reply.I'm just here for the baseball.

walking dogs in strange woods does have a nice ring to it. peaceful, relaxing, maybe a meadow. I like to try to keep my goals more simple tho. for example, tonite at work I thought, you know what would be nice, having a clean toilet to throw up in. like if I had a dating profile, i'd list one of my dreams in life as "having a clean toilet to throw up in". lol
but if I was a dog my dream would probably be to be able to take a shit in the woods and not get hassled about it. going to the bathroom is probably an important event for dogs and cats. you got to pick a spot out. you got to accomplish the evacuation. clean up a little by covering it up. and then they probably brag about it afterwards a little. why else would you inspect your poop after you go?

Originally posted by Mithrandir View PostYes. I guess I just don't get you guys. It is a giant empty meadow and wooded area that isn't used by anyone for anything. So yeah they are unfriendly. What am I hurting???"Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake."

If they wish to have you trample on their property and have your dog crap all over it, they would have said nothing. Obviously they don't like it, so they put a POLITE note in your box asking you not to continue. Would it be better if they had to put up an ugly chain link fence to keep you out? At least it's ascetically pleasing this way..."I lingered round them, under that benign sky: watched the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells, listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how any one could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth."
