You've been around awhile but not as long as me. You still need to
learn the difference between a troll and someone who you disagree
with. Keep coming back, youngster, you'll eventually learn.


Sonny-boi, I've been on this earth for 66 years. If you look like a
troll, write like a troll and smell like a troll, you are a troll.

Go bother some other group where you fit in such as alt.****wits.



Earth 66 years, usenet 12. You still have a bit to learn ( if someone
addresses you as "youngster" at 66, consider it a compliment )


So you're a stalker, too. Did it ever occur to you that I posted
under a different nick before the present one?

BTW, stick your finger into a live electrical socket, and you'll feel
God's wrath.

As for now and forever........

Actually, usenet has been around since at least 1981, so the number of
years should be at least 32 instead of 12. Here's a newsgroup message
from 1981 that supports my point:

This troll is better off in my bozo bin. It serves as my septic tank,
too, so he'll feel right at home.

Cats are basically the domain of homosexuals and crazy women who
can't find a man. The rest of the world will survive just fine
without these hideous creatures. Good riddance!

Don't **** with our kitty cats. Or I'll sic Pantera on you.

How's Pantera doing? Give him a nice ear scratch for me, please.

He's getting huge. He's sweet to me, but vicious to anybody who
tries to harm me.


Did you give him his ear scratch from me?


He did, but he lost the index finger on his right hand.....


Pantera would never bite me. He loves me so much that he's about to
pop.


My cats bite me all the time. they are, "love bites" and are not meant to do
me harm. but I have psoraisis, and my skin is rather thin in spots, so they
sometimes draw blood. Its just something I have to put up with. They don't
really mean me any harm.

Thank you for the history lesson; I didn't know it went it went as far
back as '81. Actually, the 12 years I was referring to was the amount
of years the poster using the nym 'Mack A. Damia' has been on Usenet.
I myself go back to '97, but only to a.a. since '04 at the
"invitation" of Patrick Lee Humphrey.

And I was on bulletin boards before usenet became popular. Then came
Fidonet. There was even once something called AOL... I was on
Compuserve. I just came across my original signup sheet while cleaning
out some junk. I was something like 9432/4177, something like that.
Couldn't use letters.

(STUFF) Some scientists are backing Gareth Morgan s campaign to
control cats in order to protect native species, but say more also
needs to be done to counter other predators.

Morgan, a philanthropist and economist, launched the Cats to Go
website yesterday, which calls for the eradication of the friendly
neighborhood serial killer .

Killing cats was an option, but cat owners should also control their
pets in order to protect native species, the website said.

University of Otago senior lecturer in zoology, Dr Yolanda van Heezik,
supported Morgan s campaign, saying his proposals were reasonable and
would prove effective.

Consider using a collar with a bell: our research has shown they
reduced catch by 50 per cent, van Heezik said.

Hey....!! I love cats and I ain't no fag. I have to disagree with you
here, Jon. Just because you're a dog-person doesn't give you the right
to homosexualize the ones of us who aren't. We love out cats!! As long
as they’re totally declawed and keep ****ting in their little boxes,
that is…..

Why claim to be a cat lover then promote deliberate mutilation of the
same?

Default Cats eradicated as pets in New Zealand

In the middle Ages, the Black Plague was spread quickly... There were
several reasons for this. Primarily, the spread of the big asian rats
carrying the disease.

But cats had been nearly wiped out in Europe after hysterical people
terrified by the famines and epidemics, and claiming cats to be
witches' familiars who brought about all these troubles, decided that
the poor beasts were spawns of the devil, killed most of them off, so
there was no domestic hunter of rats anymore.

There's a natural order in our world. Upset the balance and it's
usually we humans who suffer. Serves us right.

Now, as for your claim, I have several gay and crazy female friends who
can't stand cats, a brother and his wife, cousin and his family,
several uncles and their wives of many years, etc., ad nauseum who dore
the creatures. As for crazy women who can't find a man, some of us just
don't want to bother with them... the men.

I do think that more cities should implement a maximum housecat limit.
In several cities around where I live, the law is no more than 8 house
cats, 3 dogs and 2 birds. They actually regulate it. Doesn't always
work but when they have to, they'll go into the crazy lady's house and
take out her 38 cats, most of which are sick because the stupid woman
can't take care of them.

Ever watch Animal Planet? Try watching the Animal Cops of Houston,
Phoenix, or the others when they're on. Very educational.

BTW, New Zeland doesn't want to eradicate cats as pets, but the ferals
and strays. To that end, tighter controls on pets would help. But Cats
aren't the only predators of birds, mice, rats and other small
creatures, so those other predators will need to be controlled too.

Have a nice day actually reading what's under the headlines.
