Dogs Understand Human Smiles, Scowls

    Maff, I'm very much hoping you will reconsider. Your input is valuable and rare to the board. A rarity this commodity needs badly. I understand your frustration. I also know what it's like to bear with some of the ill witted ones allowed somehow to be here. I'm not referring to anyone on this particular thread. I'm referring to the board throughout.

    I can take the hit if I should be corrected, if I were to be wrong or inaccurate. But I'll be damned if I can tolerate being corrected when I'm RIGHT. It happens on message boards all too often. Nature of the beast, I suppose.

    Easily encountered are: Arrogance, non appreciation for anything including people, experience, knowledge, successful ways and means related, accomplishments, manners, common courtesy, etiquette, and even common respect. It's often the proverbial "bitch" to be unflappable in the face of these things. I understand that, and I am familiar with the feeling, which is most likely your feeling right now. I personally take little mini vacations here or mental health breaks as I like to call them. HAH.

    I hope very much that you don't fold up the tent and leave these woods, Fredric. I, for one, will feel the void and be disappointed at such a great loss of experiences, culture, and all around knowledge of dogs and other aspects of life in general. I know I don't speak alone. I also realize I'm not nearly alone as to the thick skin it sometimes takes to bear with prattle, hatefulness at times, downright ignorance and even blatant stupidity. There are many on the board who I'm sure share your reasons for being disgruntled. We ride the waves, however......over presumptuousness, cheap seats hecklers, the lot.

    I hope you'll keep finding both time and reason to share so many valuable things with everyone.

    With respect, Three Dog Knight (That's right. The "K" doesn't stand for "kennel". Hah.)

    It´s real pity but i understand.
    Arogant heclers with superficial or non knowledge can poison...their contribution here is zero...but it´s the same as in life and as TDK stay above...
    So as i´m not an active member due to my language difference, i really enjoy Fritz presence and cotribution to this board.

    QI will miss some of your input as well Fred.I really didnt intend on being rude to you as much as respond honestly.Which could have been accomplished without the insults.I do think your motivation to be involved in this forum is to sell books.That I really do not appreciate.If I thought you really wanted to add to the worlds knowledge with your honestly portrayed unique experiences which is not the case in my opinion. I think I would miss you as much as T expressed but as anyone can see you were smart enough to be honest for one you dont know who is in this crowd with inside knowledge of the events portrayed in your stories and you knew that a humble approach would be more readily accepted.With all that said I think your leaving is a loss to the board.Lord knows we can use all the intellect we can find on this board.So keep coming back from time to time with your unique point of you.

    It's not a matter of blaming him, second guessing him or putting the screws to any one individual on the board. If I had to take a guess at why he is considering leaving, I'd guess it's probably the same reason he got out of the mainstream of the dogs. Overall idiocy, degradation for no cause, know-it-all people, shit slinging, disrespect, lack of the wherewithal to appreciate a damned thing, arrogance, machismo assholes, fake image making assholes, and (place your favorite here) assholes.

    No. Of course we wouldn't blame him. But his contributions are good, sound, profound and if he makes some folks think, well.......I feel sorry for them, but we need that on this board.

    I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
    You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger
    May you never take one single breath for granted
    God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
    I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
    Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens
    Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance
    And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
    I HOPE YOU DANCE, I HOPE YOU SCRATCH

    I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
    Never settle for the path of least resistance
    Livin' might mean takin' chances, but they're worth takin'
    Lovin' might be a mistake, but it's worth makin'
    Don't let some Hellbent heart leave you bitter
    When you come close to sellin' out, please reconsider
    Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance
    And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
    I HOPE YOU DANCE, I HOPE YOU SCRATCH

    I'm not sure I can look at a picture and tell a persons mood.... Lol some people like me purposely conceal emotions to stay on an even keel, but if you know me and are around you can tell if I'm smiling because I'm happy or I'm smiling to keep from pounding the shit outta someone lol
