Re: Calling Kenny!

Kenny - Thank you SO much for your prompt response and for all of that wonderful, well-thought out advice. It's taken me quite a few months thought to finally get up the courage to even contact a breeder, simply because I know having a pet like this, (or any pet for that matter), is a huge responsib...

Calling Kenny!

Hi Kenny! Sorry to call you out of the blue like this, but last year I saw photos of your precious Senegal, Puppy, floating around here and ever since then I've been contemplating the idea of getting one for myself, be it a Senegal or a Caique. I recently moved out on my own and since I don't have a...

Re: How do you pronounce "scallop"?

So maybe it does have something to do with British culture/descent!

Am I the only one who's heard Gordon Ramsay complain about burnt/overcooked/rubbery S-coll-ups?

Re: How do you pronounce "scallop"?

S-cal-up for me!

I have a few friends from the UK and they all pronounce it S-call-up. Perhaps it has something to do with European culture/descent? :confused:

Re: engaged couple staying in same hotel room

Like a few other posters have said - it really all depends on what their values are and where they draw the line. Some parents don't really mind, or would much rather not be privy to details like that, while others rule with an iron fist about where their kids go, how long they stay some place, who ...

Re: When will (not should) America legalize gay marriage?

Personally, I find it appalling that gay marriage is such an issue in a country like the U.S. Whatever happened to "the pursuit of happiness?" Prohibiting gay marriage to me, is without a doubt, unconstitutional discrimination. I understand where the traditionalists are coming from in the ...
