I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

The side effects are MUCH lower than what I remember from BC pills.

I'm in month 1 of my Mirena and I haven't really felt any side effects. I know it is still early in the process for me to provide a real run down but I'm happy with it so far.

Mirena is the bomb-diggity.

Although I suppose I should have mine removed, as I no longer need it, having convinced certain people that they needed to step up and take a small outpatient surgery for the team.

Oh, and as far as dog food goes, I am massively in favor of raw feeding. As your dog is small, Lee, you could even buy the frozen, pre-assembled raw.

My dogs being large, we go through a LOT of bird carcass.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Oooh. I wonder if I could convince my old man to do that. (I would kind of like to get my Mirena removed, as I suspect it's contributed to a crabby libido and weight gain.)

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes! (His birthday ended a couple of hours ago, due to the International Date Line.) I've been discussing his birthdaying over in Bitches, from here: billytea "Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In" Apr 29, 2013 9:43:50 pm PDT.

For dogs, better quality food results in less volume coming out the other end, which certainly makes a difference in big dogs.

I use Professional, which is the in-house brand at Petsmart. It's lower fat than a lot of brands, which keeps TNG from getting diarrhea.

One thing to remember is to gradually switch him over, not to change foods all at once, because too much change at once may give him stomach problems.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I think cooked v. uncooked makes the difference.
