So I get bored, allot.  Anyway,  I've decided that I'm going to buy a dog when I return to the world.  My dog is getting older and lives with my parents in Ohio and I think it's time to buy one of my own.  So i've been browsing animal shelters online.  Now I'm not one of those wackos who think evil incarnate takes form at Petland and other Petstores that sell pure breed dogs.  The way I look at it is that there are plenty of people willing to walk into a Pet Store and buy a cute beagle puppy, not so many are willing to walk to the animal shelter and adopt and abandoned mutt.  So rather than buy a popular puppy, why not save an animal is my line of thought.

Now I understand the idea of these Shelters doing a little screening to make sure that the person adopting the animal isn't some sick fuck who fucks animals, murders them or leaves them tied to a tree outside to fend for itself.  But some of these requests and expectations are fucking nuts.  Some of these shelters want to inspect your home, have you agree to let them "check-in" on you and your dog and basically run a full background check with a DNA sample and prostate exam.  There expectations are somewhat unrealistic.  Some of these places want you to agree to have someone home with the dog 24/7.  There is a big difference between leaving a dog by itself for days and going to work for 10 hours while the Dog stays at home.  It's like do you want these dogs to have a reasonable hope of being adopted so that they don't get a dose of death or would you rather me just outright lie and say I hit the powerball and have 100 million in the bank and will provide professional cooks and trainers to monitor the dog at every waking moment.

I'm a dog lover, but some of these wackjobs need drug into the street and shot.  They just don't get it and take themselves way too fucking serious.

Pittsburgh is my team and the Steelers have been performing well all year.  Pittsburgh doesn't get the attention other franchises get, but to suggest they're not a A-list team is nuts.  We're talking about a team that has had some of the greatest players in the game and were the dominant team during Football's toughest era...Steel Curtain anyone?

Pittsburgh is a team that is consistently in the Playoffs and has an enormous fan base.  I'm talking about real fans and not just people who buy a shirt or jersey cause they did good the year before.  When I moved to Seattle, I expected to find no Steelers fans in sight.  Sure enough there was an entire Northwest Steelers club at my local hooters who had the placed reserved every Sunday.  How many other franchises have a fan base like that?

Pittsburgh has proven once again that defense is what gets you to championships and have the best defense in the league bar none.  I won't go out on a limb and claim their victory of Arizona is absolute, but to suggest Pittsburgh won't pull in the audience a team like Dallas would is wack.  Anyway, the Steelers are going all the way bitches and will be the first team to get 6 rings.  The great part is they're not losing anyone next year and will be a great contender again.  I see another dynasty being born in Pittsburgh just like the late 70s and early 80s era.

Actually I think that depends what state you're in.   My father is the superintendent for a prison in West Virginia (I know, make fun all you want) which is primarily focused on special protection inmates.  Most of the inmates are pedophiles and rapist, thought WV has kind of gone away from segregating people like that.  There are cops and former prison guards in the population (one nearly killed my father in a dispute four years ago).  Not the best source of information, but I also recall on The Shield when they were going to send Lem to prison they were worried about him being killed in the general population.  Again, not exactly a credible source, but certainly something to consider.

No I didn't see the video.  You tube is a blocked website and I don't have the bandwidth or patience to go there on my personal computer.
