Yep. He's right. "At least it wasn't a kid". Thank all that's holy! I'm not the brightest bulb on the tree but even I know children are more precious than dogs. 

But when we take dogs into our care we assume responsibility for them and it saddens me a whole lot to think of a dog dying a slow and awful death. 

So Chuck, if you have a pet you have assumed responsibility for, I hope you will consider finding a new home for him or her. 

Sure Wonky, Chucks insensitive joke means he can't take proper care of a pet.. Yeah that's it.

You didn't know that?

No.
I only know Chuck from he what posts here. And, often he posts humor I find hard to see as typically funny. Maybe that's just me, or our differences in what we find humorous. 
I'll repeat that I thought his remarks about the dog was insensitive and if he has a dog I hope his humor does not extend to the care of that animal. 
I thought it was a pretty straight forward opinion and for what it's worth I'll stand by it.

Well OK then. Lot's of us don't see humor in what others sometimes say.. YOU more so than others but nevertheless in this case that's your opinion and probably some others feel the same as you.

BUT I seriously doubt anyone but you thought CW's off color joke meant he can't take care of a dog.

YOU seriously doubt "Anyone".... Well okay "hall monitor" I guess you are authorized to speak for the entire group here. 

Look TVg, you have a problem with me. If I say white, you argue that it's black. So please, give it a rest and let the conversation flow. I didn't "attack" Chuck: I just thought his remark not very funny and because I'm fond of dogs I wanted to express an opinion about it. I did, and that should have ended it. Remember I didn't say chuck was a commie dog hater who wears girls panties or tell him to F**K off or any other rude or vulgar comments. 

Enough of this. I'm sure Chuck will continue to express humor anyway he chooses and with exceptions about dogs dying in hot cars I won't respond with negative comments. 

Now. Back to the weather.

But summer is still with us and I hope the gods bless us with plenty of hot weather but without dry lightning. We have been so very lucky so far: fewer forest fires near the valley than might have been. 

So if we have "record breaking weather" lets hope it is without dry lightning strikes.

Dry Lightning eh? I guess you just mean not accompanied by rain. My friend talks about "heat lightning" I hear others say that.There's really no such thing. It's just regular old lightning seen from far away.

I think that one got beat to death and we all moved on. The subject, not the dog.

If the mercury exceeds 35 degree Celsius on Tuesday as is forecast, it would be the first five straight days of what the agency calls ‘mousho,’ or intense heat, since they began recording the data.

I'm curious. You remind us weather around the globe and I'm wondering if you do that in support of the argument for "climate change" or if you are just somehow fascinated by weather in general.

No, that's TVg who is all knowing and without doubt about anything.

Well, thanks for that. I guess you are suggesting I'm insane. I guess I won't be getting a Christmas card from you this year? 
I take no comfort that you find my behavior or remarks irritating or "whatever". A couple of other folks have expressed similar opinions. (but didn't suggest I was insane). I can stop those remarks about the use of the reply feature and will. I thought I had a legitimate and worthwhile view of that, but seems not. 
I'll be watching your continuing posts for more instruction and comments about my behavior. 
More, I can't do.
