I dislike all animals, cats worse.

One or two friends have a dog I'll pet but that's about it.

Same.

I've seen some nice aquariums and even appreciate the colors in salt water fish but wouldn't want them in the house.

The only furry things I appreciate are attached to women.

That part is strange  :-\
But I agree on cats not being cool

Hey powerpack, ...how was your flight? Did the luggage make it with all the contents intact?
I had it shrink wrapped on the way up.
No problems and the Airport at Accra is suprisingly modern.
Just got back today.

Just have no use for them and don't understand the emotional need/hole they fill for people. Not being judgey, it doesn't make any sense to me and probably never will. Another factor is my incredible sense of smell and tendency to be highly respectful of germs.

I do appreciate animals that taste good.

LA Times is reporting that Sarah Jessica Parker & Matthew Broderick are expecting twin girls via a surrogate.  She is 44.  He is 47.  Isn't that a little old to be raising infants (even via surrogacy)?  Even if you have the financial means to provide for the child?  Madonna is 51 and tried to adopt an infant...



yes it is...totally agree...

remember the old saying " when ya mess with Darwinism, Darwinism messes back hard"!

there are millions of yrs worth of evolution to discredit parenthood beyond a certain age, all gauged towards survival....and of the fittest. Empathetic inklings aside, we should not boohoo our way into idiocy. whats next...parenthood at 70??

its almost as bad as bush's "no idi... err child left behind program"

and errr i made up that saying...
carpe` vaginum!
