Ok, I saw something on FB and like a fool I actually wrote about it here only to have my eyes opened by @sallypup , thank you for pointing out my blunder. I read the article but my brain was not working properly, I must have had it plugged in too long Hopefully I won't fall for the FB bullkadunk again, but who knows, if my brain isn't up to par it could happen again. I deleted that discussion so that no one else is mislead but I did respond to everyone so they would get credit for their responses. Do you ever do stuff like that?

I'm not on FB for more than an hour a day and I think I will have to contact the Animal Shelter that posted the stupid thing. They too made a huge mistake. It is human nature to make mistakes.

Thank you for your consideration @rebelann. I did not mean to start a huge stink! Maybe the article was real. Its just that the guy writing the article clearly stated his own opinion and that is not decent journalism.

I'm actually glad you pointed that out, usually I try not to post something that comes from someones opinion and I wish I had paid closer attention before writing that discussion. Well, from now on I'll read an article at least twice ..... on two different days ..... before writing about it. Even if it was real, I should have done a better job of researching the claims made by the individual.

Do you mean the discussion about dog food? I never trust what I read on FB.

Yes that is the discussion but I deleted it. I should have reread it on a different day before posting it here but it was on an Animal Shelters site so like a fool I trusted them.

Usually the Animal Shelters only want to help our pets so maybe they too fell for that article @LadyDuck I don't usually get a lot of news stuff there, I go to Bing if I want to read about the news.

Uhm... I hope not, Ann. I do try to check all the facts before I post a discussion. I am almost never on Fb, anyway. I don't like that site and try to stay completely off of it.

I have out of state friends with whom I stay in contact via FB, some are overseas, and for us it's much easier than snail mail or email, where else can you post photos or videos. Of course my FB page is not open to just anyone, they are all real world friends who have moved. I also share the photos of rescue kritters from a few of the animal rescue sites.

I missed that discussion. I see so much stuff on Facebook that is clearly not researched....every now and again they catch me napping and I fall for it. I missed your discussion.

Be glad you did, I added a link I found thanks to an Animal Shelter about a brand of pet food and foolishly added the link to it on my discussion, I have since deleted it.

Yeah I do, actually whenever I'm not in class or I'm not in a meeting and doing something important, I only use 50% of my brain, and that is for the purpose of giving my brain a rest. To sum it up, I'm stupid when I don't have something to do lol!

That must have been what I did. It was on an Animal Shelter site and like a fool I trusted them. So much for trust, eh?

I'm glad you did not read it, I should not have written about it. Yes, he always looked so surprised when I would take pictures of him but he never ran away.
