Terry Pratchett's books show what terrible things gods can deny you. In one book, there was a god who denied his believers chocolate! *gasp* The moral of this post is: If someone denies you chocolate(or something else that you love) ignore them. -------------------- Do not underestimate the power of the mechanical pencil.

Using the special item idea, what if when you got water, you had a penelty for what you could carry. It's probably more work than what it's worth, but it's an idea. -------------------- Do not underestimate the power of the mechanical pencil. Join the Dark side. We have cookies.

I'm going to do as much as I can for animal shelters and strays whenever I'm able. I've already started with the strays. I fed this amazing stray cat for a few weeks until he could be brought in to a no kill shelter. -------------------- If anyone ever asks you why you did something, say "Because I could".

Something just comes into my head, then I wait until it builds so much I have to write down the story and figure out how I can make it work on the computer. EDIT: A bit of advice; if you ever meet an author, the last thing you ever want to ask them is how they get their ideas. For one thing it sounds unimaginative as most people ask this and the author might get annoyed by this. It's different all the time and not always easy to explain. EDIT2: No, I'm not a published author, but I know several.

Yes, but it's creuler to kill an animal than to alter it and for some strange reason it's more effective. If you'd rather kill a stray than alter it, be my guest, but be warned that I will be very, very mad. EDIT: It is very easy to tell if a male cat has been neutered. EDIT2: Sorry, forgot to mention this. If a cat can get used to people they put it up for adoption. That probably counts for some of the statistics.

The thing I never understood was that Adam and Eve's son(the one killed his brother, I forget his name) went off and married a woman he found when Adam and Eve are supposed to be the first humans.

I forget the exact statistics, but over a time period of a few years, there were less strays with TNR than T&K(as you so nicely put it). I think it's because each time a female has a litter, at least one usually survives long enough to get to an age where it is physically possible for him/her to mate. And if you factor in that cats usually have two or three litters of kittens a year if you let them(though it's not healthy), and that an outdoor cat's average lifespan is three to six years, and a cat becomes physically possible to mate in about a year, a female cat could have 15 litters in a lifetime! Also, if four kittens survive in each litter(unlikely), then you have 60 kittens in a lifetime. Then you factor in the thousands of stray cats in the world, and you have a really big number of kittens, including what the kittens who have survived are giving birth to. If you alter a cat, then you stop the cat's mating(which also keeps the males a bit safer as they don't get into fights over females) and you stop those litters from being concieved, so therefore you cut down the number of stray cats considerably. Sorry if I bored you with numbers and cat birth information. ;) [ Wednesday, August 04, 2004 11:56: Message edited by: Nicothodes ] -------------------- If anyone ever asks you why you did something, say "Because I could".

It's terrible! Poor dogs... :( I read a similar article about people wanting to kill all the stray cats in Florida because they were catching certain rodents. I didn't find out what happened, but they wanted to catch and kill them instead of TNR(Trap, Neuter, Return) which has been proven to be more effective. :eek: -------------------- If anyone ever asks you why you did something, say "Because I could".

Reread what was written above. If that doesn't help, _______(pick one phrase from the follwing; beg, ask politely, scream, die, jump up and down on your computer, wander around your neighborhood asking strangers for help). If that dosen't work, there may or may not be hope for you. EDIT: If that was really confusing and random, I apoligize.

There's a secret room in the room with the opal that has a lever in it. Save before you pull itthough. It has an 'anti-theif system'. The dragon is past the vahnatai tower. EDIT: Sorry, didn't phrase that clearly enough. The dragon is after you explore the vahnatai tower and have been traveling for a bit.

But it's cheaper to keep them all alive, if at all possible. Besides, if they die, you have to march them back naked(or with ugly clothes on) to get their stuff back. ;) -------------------- Do not underestimate the power of the mechanical pencil.
