There's something quite special about a relationship with a dog. Unconditional loyalty and love for their lifetime. And something sad and inevitable too - it's for their lifetime and not yours. Because, mostly, we outlive our dogs. And usually they don't just die peacefully in their sleep. So comes the day when we do the right thing for them - but it sure doesn't feel like it. And to get through it, as the poem says, you have to make your heart cold. But some consolation is all the memories you have of his happy life together with you. You will always have those. So remember him. And get yourself another. The new puppy or rescue dog won't replace him, but his needs and demands will distract you and help heal your loss.

That's what I said No country requires donors to pay for their blood to be tested

Sorry to rain on their parade, but ... no-one owns the Moon!

Ashton Agar taking his first Test wicket on Friday. As you can see he's being very cool about it. Nope, not at all excited ... The 19 yo newbie saved Australia ... not from defeat, just from humiliating defeat

You need what he's got ...

There does need to be a delay because there is a "window" of infection when HIV is not detectable - or maybe not reliably detectable. This used to be several months - hence the UK 12 months stipulation, I presume - but it seems testing procedures have advanced and according to the hivaware.org.uk "you can now get an HIV test with an accurate result from four weeks after potential infection." I guess the UK blood transfusion service needs to catch up with these improvements and reduce the 12 months ban. And obviously the US needs to get to first base ... http://www.hivaware.org.uk/be-aware/common-myths.php

Vicious?? Don't be mean - we have feelings too

The ban was lifted in 2011. The ban now applies only if donors have had sex with other men within the past year. This seems reasonable - what do others think?

And a few guys ... And welcome Gabriel - hope you have happy times on GA

As Leshwar said, thanks for sharing this Sure the monologue style might be "unreal" but it works well here. And, as you say, very impressive that a 17 yo made this and with the support of his school. Hope it has a big impact and helps to bring Australia into the 21st century Loved the intro about the cute butcher boy. Look forward to future updates on his "nervous fumblings"

Can you see the basketball player in the Moon? I've never noticed it before but someone told me about it this week so I'll look out for it. Maybe it needs the Moon to be full, or waxing or waning, I'm not sure. Still, be fun to see it If you've not spotted it from the pic, here it is

New Aussie rookie spinner Ashton Agar claimed some wickets and scored some runs today Dunno what the score is Here's some more pics of Ashton .

Interesting Martha Stewart - woman Lee Farkas - gay What do women and gays both have - or rather not have? Nice 'n' cozy connections with power - that's male heterosexual power. Which, as you say, is not to excuse these two but might throw some light on the shocking and corrupt lack of appetite to pursue those other fuckers

His life's been one long trip

Beware the wolf ... he bites Internet wasn't around when I first started - "borrowing" my older brother's straight porn mags I've watched both straight and gay porn - just vanilla Initially I suppose it was both educational and to get off But after you've learned all the "moves" it's a voyeuristic activity so there's no point unless its erotic And to be erotic - for me - requires - the "actors" [heheh] are really hot - they're genuinely interacting and getting off with each other, not spouting fake crappy dialogue from "pizza boy delivery / repair man story line B" - if it's straight porn there are no nasty nails, pointy shoes, makeup and continuous squealing Which means they need to be looking at each other and genuinely communicating The only erotic porn I've seen is where the camera focused on their faces, expressions and communication. Otherwise it's about as stimulating as watching hair transplant operations.

Full of unnatural Kreemy goodness

Nope. I'm pretty sure Virginia is 100% woman from conception to now I'm all for equal pay for equal work. Fact is the feminist debate secured a complete trouncing of the guys - equal pay for less work

Time it became something useful ... like kebabs

Nice car Oh, and nice naked ass too

"Come on Tim!"

He's had a brilliant 12 months - Olympic gold - US Open - Wimbledon But the best game was the semi between Djokavic and Delboy Potro - unbelievable. Against Murray Djokavic seemed drained - he must have been whacked. .

tbh I never liked the nasty little critters - gave me hand cramps - always preferred a trackball using a desktop. And with a laptop / netbook / iPad whatever they're entirely redundant. But kudos to the guy - it allowed a revolution in computing and the guy deserved all the recognition he's had, along with his place in computer history

So this is the first reply to your first blog Yeah, the grunting females - one reason I only watch the guys play There may be other reasons too, of course ... As for grammar, I think you're generally pretty safe in the blogs from sniper attacks

Run outa Likes so ... thanks for these

Happy Independence Day guys
