I made a discussion about a week ago on the status of my dog. Just for a recap, he was put into veterinary care after getting into the trash can and eating chicken bones, and unknown other stuff. Well, it caused a lot of problems...

Something that you are supposed to leave there? I got home from work today, and I heard my walkie-talkie crackle. And when I took that out, a dog lead was also in the pocket. Luckily, I am going back tonight to let out the dogs,...

Should construction plans be canceled if it would effect the habitat of an animal on the endangered species list? If it were at all possible for the local animals of that species to be relocated safely during a construction...

kristikiser I never really answered this directly: Yes, construction plans should always be cancelled or delayed until a reasonable approach to conservation is decided. There. =)

I read a discussion earlier about break-ins and shootings, and it made me think of something that I experienced. There was no shooting, but.. Several years ago, my family was all sitting on the balcony that overlooked the street...

kristikiser It was hilarious, he was crying and bawling like a baby when they did it so it made it even funnier =) I agree, these things are pretty exciting, but scary at times too =)

kristikiser Wow, I think we ARE the same person...lol Here's mine: My husband and I are downstairs in the basesment (where we lived at the time) and all of a sudden I hear the neighborhood dogs barking (VERY unusual), then I hear my 15 year old cousin at the back door...

I am never too slow to give advice to another person when they ask for it, and I try my best to give the person the most helpful answer possible. I have had people tell me that they have taken my advice and it works. But, I know...

kristikiser I NEVER take people's advice. I'm so silly that way. Of course I usually regret it later on, but I like to carve my own path. I usually don't even ask for advice though because I know I won't follow it. =P They just give it. Then I say "Thanks" and do my own...

kristikiser LMFAO! I've been wondering the same thing: "are we the same person?" The funny thing is, there really aren't enough people to even occupy these empty spaces...in WA state there are SO many empty warehouses where there used to be forest, grasslands and...

During night time, some tend to feel at peace and tries to relax from all days work. While others are still troubled just by thinking of the things they'll be facing tomorrow. On the other end, during the day we barely notice that...

kristikiser Honestly, I would have to say that I wish I didn't HAVE to sleep. Only sleep when I choose to and IF I want to. I love things about the day and I love the peace and quiet of the night. There is a different power acting during the day then there is at night and...

kristikiser The ONLY thing you should do right now is encourage him (safely mind you). If he likes fire, get a barbeque grill, make your own camp fire in the yard or at the beach. If you try to quench this it will only get worse. Maybe get him interested in being a...

I have two different colored eyes. One eye is blue, and one eye is some brown-green-blue mutt of an eye. It is a mutation that one or two people on my mother's side of the family has. My eyes were supposed to have the recessive...

I was wondering what your favorite place to shop is. I would have to say my favorite place to shop is Target. It's inexpensive and they pretty much have everything. I even get my clothes at Target! So how about you guys?

7 responses

kristikiser My favorite is Goodwill, or other thrift stores. It's like a treasure hunt! Plus, you can get tremendous deals on brand new stuff, and it helps me to be original instead of wearing the latest trends in the mall. =)

I only need to lose 15 pounds and I know exercise is probably the best solution, but a friend of mine and I were having this discussion and she thinks drinking water makes you gain weight. We were almost arguing. I'm curious what...

kristikiser The truth is, the less water you drink, the more water you retain (water weight) because your body goes into survival mode and holds water when it doesn't get it on a regular basis. The more water you drink, the less it holds onto and the less water weight you...

kristikiser Your welcome, and of course sharks are a type of fish, but they are predators and they are far more endangered than fish are. I am glad to hear that you released it, but I have a partiality to sharks and I have a duty to protect them in any way I can =) I am...

kristikiser Agreed Valenas, I lived in WA state for years and it disgusted me to see how many natural areas they demolished just so that they could build more housing developments (ugly ones if you ask me). I'm sure that the impact on animals and plants was devastating...

kristikiser Thank you Duranv for your comments and insight, as for the figure of 100 million sharks killed each year, I directly quoted that from www.sharkwater.com and I trust their facts. It is an "estimate" though, made by professionals as you'll notice and there...
