Guys,
This weekened is a long weekened here in Canada.
Monday is “Family Day.”
The weather is gorgeous
Given the weather condition, everybody is out of town.
I couldn’t go anywhere since I have a midterm coming up this coming Tusday.
I have been cramming in since Friday.
The city is like a ghost town.
Most people have gone to NiagraFalls
I Supposed this long weekend is one those rare occasions during the year that being a family man pays.
Being a student sucks.
Oh
By the way
I took a glance at your post Betty.
DOgs and cats are not capable of comprehending the prime emotions you mentioned on your post.you know that ,don’t you?
I have been around them long enough that I can assure you that they are incapable of showing such high emotions.have you ever seen a dog cry.
They eat ,sleep ,and poo
It is pretty much what they do.
Definitely a dog never feels intimidated by a cat simply because it (a dog) got struck a couple of times with a cat ,growin up.
They just don’t get along by nature. They are programmed that way. They are programmed to be arch-enemy ,arch-nemesis if you will.
They are not able to analyze the primal emotions. They have just some hightened senses.
Like hearing in dogs. What sense is heightened in cats ? I can’t think of anything.
Plus,they are definitely have no inkling what the hell the act of harmony is. :)))
Sometimes happen that a dog is docile,that is all.plase do come out and make a derma out of it.:)
You know some people keep them in a pen ,corral if you will , as their livestock.so , they are equivalent in rank with hen,rooster ,pig and so on ,but a boot more famouse. :)))
I don’t hate them
But , I believe, they were born by some inferior set ,fixed qualities that never hone over the course of their lives.
By the way , by the time the inflicted poppy grows up ,the cat will have been too old to be scary. :))
Peace out
By the way i like playful shaggy dogs.
Lucy, here we have a joke about using English adjectives.
As you know, every adjective has three level of degrees.
Pick out “easy” for example,
It has three states, if I will,
“easy” , “easier”, “easiest”.
Here we’re joking with this adjective “good.”
Back in my school days, if one of our English teachers asked us in the class that what words are three degrees of this adjective, “good,”
we would give him a loud shout: “yeah teacher, they are “good”, “gooder,” and “goodest.”
After that answer, there would be a laughter across the whole class, with everybody smiling! It was amusing.
Lucy, now would you mind me if I say that your scripts are the goodest of the goodest in this world? 😉
Thank you for your this week’s podcasts.
