I prefer to think myself as an educated and well informed individual.

Ok, you are right about evolutionary biology and may be right about
the metaphysical.

About the latter, I'm in the "let the mystery BE" camp.

You are still a mean-spirited asshole who would do the world a favor
if you killed yourself.

Domestic cats are *not* genetically wild. That's what "domesticated"
means. They have been selectively bred over many centuries to be
dependent on humans for their survival, along with dogs, sheep, and
many other species.

Sit a baby in a room without any verbal communication throughout it's
infancy and it'll not know what you're saying once it reaches 13 and you
start talking to it.

Cats aren't born domesticated... they're natural predators that
instincly want to hunt for their food. *You begin the domesticating
process the moment you begin to wipe their asses and open tins for
them... *But i's gone way beyond that now, hasn't it? *Anti-depressents

How long before people start dying them to match their shoes? *Oh...
they already do!

Then don't

You are arguing for the extermination of the species. Cats are about
as successful, long-term, in the wild as you are in this newsgroup,
where your life will be nasty, brutish and short.

My 'shortcomings'? *Would this be in reference to my being aware that

Those aren't shortcomings. Being an asshole is your shortcoming. Well,
that and the fact that you draw breath. And the latter is something
you control.

The cat is definitely better off being dead than being a shadow of it's
genetic self.

Take a moment to 'think' about that whilst you're looking on in awe at
the wildcats of Scotland...

You no more get to decide what makes a cat better off than I do. If my
cats wanted to leave they could.

we recently got a waffle maker, DH has tried several recipes, none are

pancakes... i want that crispy crunchy reall a waffle recipe, this troll
has given me the oppertunity to ask, Lee, who needs comfort food right now



I've only ever made waffles once, and that was in a waffle iron my mother
had from the 1950's. No fancy lights or gadgets to warn you when the
waffles are done. You just have to know when they are done. And of course
the batter has to be right. There's where I lose it, since (at least
online) Betty Crocker has resorted to using Bisquick baking mix even in my
1951 edition rather than a real buttermilk batter. But I did find this
recipe in that old ring-binder style book as follows:

"Heat waffle iron while mixing batter.
Beat well 2 eggs, 2 cups buttermilk or sour milk
1 tsp. [baking] soda
Beat in 2 cups sifted flour [they actually specify Gold Medal brand, so we
know they were already in the hands of advertising even in 1951] 2 tsp.
baking powder, 1/2 tsp. salt, 6 Tbs. softened vegetable shortening.

Beat until smooth. This is a thin batter. Bake in hot waffle iron."

It doesn't mention how long to bake them. Apparently we're supposed to
already know. LOL

Me, too! I love that song.

I understand why people are angry at organized religions, considering
all the crap they do. But making fun of people because you think their
beliefs are stupid? Give me a break. What a lame reason to get on
someone's case. I don't believe what everyone else believes, either -
so what? It doesn't matter whether someone believes in God, the spirits
of trees, or the Great Pumpkin - if they derive strength from that
belief, that's what matters, unless they try to control people's lives
or harm them with those beliefs.

Besides, it always makes me laugh when someone states in no uncertain
terms that There Is No God. Oh really? Where'd you get that information?
Show me the evidence! (I laugh just as much at people who state in the
same terms that There Is A God - same reason.)
