Ok, I wrote this long commentary about the below article earlier but when I went to publish the damn thing I got the "Sorry Blogger is Down for Maintenance" page. Uuughh, idiot....I lost my whole post.
I'll paraphrase..... (which could be dangerous after several margaritas and a few shots...damn those old guys for buying Bimbo and I shots at lunch)
I like science, it's great and all, we need to further our scientific advances and all that shit. I've been to the cadaver labs, I've seen dead people, I've seen autopsies being performed, I participated even. I've cut up (in the name of science mind you) some animals - the usuals of course: cats, dogs, pigs, frogs and a few others too.
However, this substitute biology teacher, Doug Bjerregaard is pushing it a little too far.
He arranged for his students to view the dissection of a dog - only the dog is still alive. As in STILL breathing....I don't know, I just think that's a bit cruel. I all about learning how the digestive systems works, lets just use diagrams - not living animals.
Yeah sure, the dog would be euthanized anyway but the story still creeps me out. Just like pet cemetery - to this day - I CAN NOT watch that movie. I am 26 years old but I refuse to EVER watch that movie again. I saw it when it first came out years and years ago; it just scares the shit out of me.
Of course, my narrative was much better before all that alcohol - but oh well, I don't give a shit.
Is this at the Jeffrey Dahmer memorial middle school???

obviously not an animal person at all...so even the argument "what if it were YOUR dog"... wouldn't work on this ass.

You have a riveting web log
and undoubtedly must have
atypical & quiescent potential
for your intended readership.
May I suggest that you do
everything in your power to
honor your Designer/Architect
as well as your audience.
Please remember to never
restrict anyone's opportunities
for ascertaining uninterrupted
existence for their quintessence.
There is a time for everything,
a season for every activity
under heaven. A time to be
born and a time to die. A
time to plant and a time to
harvest. A time to kill and
a time to heal. A time to
tear down and a time to
rebuild. A time to cry and
a time to laugh. A time to
grieve and a time to dance.
A time to scatter stones
and a time to gather stones.
A time to embrace and a
time to turn away. A time to
search and a time to lose. A
time to keep and a time to
throw away. A time to tear
and a time to mend. A time
to be quiet and a time to
speak up. A time to love
and a time to hate. A time
for war and a time for peace.
Best wishes for continued ascendancy,
Howdy

Lisa: The entire time I read that article, I kept thinking, "What if that were my babies?" I'd hurt somebody...that's for damn sure. And that's just over my dogs...can't imagine ever having kids!
T&H: Wait a minute, what time is it again? Thanks for visiting my site, I'll be sure to stop by yours.
:)
