Re: t-and-f: Dogs kill runner
gee, you learn something every day. Shepherd's pie was a staple, but i had never heard the term cottage pie before. Dictionary says it's a Shepherd's pie made w/ beef, which means that's actually what we ate cuz lamb was nonexistent in those days and mutton was unpalatable. gh From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Sat, 18 Jan 2003 13:27:57 EST To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: t-and-f: Dogs kill runner In a message dated 1/17/03 11:15:43 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: My mother's English, and my sister and I used to write on the calendar on Thursday, start boiling roast for Sunday dinner. :-) gh What-no cottage pie??

Re: t-and-f: Dogs kill runner
All very true. But we don't have the death penalty, we don't have as many fat people (percentage wise of course, because we don't have as many people), we don't eat grits (we put that on the road when it snows), if someone's injured in a road accident the paramedics ask for their name not if they have insurance and we have a prime minister who can speak in sentences, knows where other places are and didn't buy his university degree. (not that he's any bloody good at anything other than being George Bush's poodle) Oh yes, and the party that wins most seats in Parliament gets the chance to form a government.

You do so have grits - you call it polenta. Speaking of Euphemistic English, in America, people who marry relatives are called 'hillbillies'.

Randall Northam wrote: I went to the Atlanta Olympics so don't talk to me about southern cooking! I didn't like grits but I did like the greens. Nothing beats a good Southern meal. Of course if it's not mama who is doing the cooking, you have to be careful about your choice of restaurants. Many establishments are phony in this regard. The best cooking will often come from those places where there are bunch of little old ladies in the kitchen. Grits and breakfast are just the tip of the iceberg. Cooked turnip (or collard) greens, red beans, fried okra, cornbread, and the appropriate condiments are heavenly. The condiments are most crucial: hot pepper sauce for the greens, tabasco sauce for the beans, and butter for the cornbread. Of course many people like to just throw the cornbread right into the bowl of greens in order to sop up the juices. And of course, you wash this down with a big glass of iced tea. bob
Re: t-and-f: Dogs kill runner
I'm a big animal lover but have no use for pit bulls. You could've guessed that they were the culprits without even reading about this unfortunate incident. People breed these dogs for fighting or protection, often to impress their friends. But this is first time that I can remember hearing about runners actually being killed by dogs. bob

You two knuckleheads have the defense of ignorance to fall back on, the head of the Pennsylvania SPCA does not. He should be fired. Pit-bull terriers have been loyal family pets for a long time.

Once again the logic on this list has done for me. The owner is another story? Is that because he let these well fed dogs roam free? Or because he taught them to kill? They are both the same story. The owner should be convicted of murder, the dogs should be destroyed (I understand that's one and the same thing in some States). Pit bulls are essentially aggressive.
