dogs

um ... there is among some sections of the community to refer to female humans as "dogs". Long story and interesting concept.

However, not the basis of this post.

I do have a canine living with me ... some other canines wander past - perhap for brief moment of comfort - then go off to wherever they concieve as "home"  ....

What is 'point' ... ah ... have a look at this

then tell me that human beings and canines can't interact and have fun ...

there is, of course, the underlying question of why is that bloke not "President" of somewhere ... but yes, didn't post this link without some sort of vague thought.

I shall never call a woman a dog again, or a doggess.

They are impossible to train.

Davoh said...

.. and do you believe that human beings 'en masse' are impossible to train?

Davoh said...

..and to answer my own question what would it would require to 'train' an entire population into "one" mode of thought and behaviour.

Methinks "dictatorship" - in th wider world is doomed to fail - wherever it may be - however each and every 'person' needs to believe in 'control'. Whether it be within themselves - or trust in some "other". It matters not.

Long story.

By way of answer, let me refer you to the "book of the week" on BBC radio 4. It's about a boy born in a prison camp in North Korea, in which the school subjects for children include how to inform on everyone including your parents. this is proof if proof were needed that we cannot be trained and dictatorship is not ultimately possible.

Long story indeed. Please tell it.

1953, Singapore Naval Base, HMS TERROR. All unregistered dogs to be rounded up and shot. Shooter was PO Jerry Harling who enjoyed his task, botched up on several occasions. eventually the task was completed. however, one dog escaped by car to a distance of twenty miles, courtesy of a kind person, but when the car door was opened the dog scooted back to the base only to be shot by Jerry 24hrs later.
I met CPO Jerry years later in a pub in Portsmouth and related his story to the patrons. A punchup followed between Jerry and one of the pub Patrons. Fini.True Story.

Driving down the street one day many years ago a man with me said, "How about that, a pig walking a dog."

Anonymous - is that a threat- or promise .... heh.

mmmm, Vest; HMS TERROR, says much, i guess.

Vincent; there are areas of human thought, and experience, where the word 'bitch' is a fond concept.

BillyB; um, would you believe that every living entity is kin? Oooer, long story.

Not to worry, my team is rooting for your team.
