Family dog mauls girl
NT News ^ | Sept 11, 2010 | Annie Sanson

A TERRITORY girl is lucky to be alive after she was mauled by a savage dog.

Seven-year-old Meg Croton and her brother Connor, 9, had been feeding their family's dog - an eight-year-old mastiff cross - in their Humpty Doo back yard when the girl was attacked by the vicious hound.

"I tripped on a rock and fell, and I think I kicked his leg," Meg recalled the attack. "And then it hurt very badly and he was on top of me and ripped on my head. "But my brother saved my life."

I’ll be back in a nonce.

Have to go out to buy underwear, Bubba Burgers and milk.

All *we* have is “your word” for anything you say.

Ditto. So, ergo, the odds are even.

Now is that any reason to get all emotional or insulting?

(Still wondering though. Farsi maybe? Or the Tosk dialect of Albanian?)"

My guess is pre-teen Public School Victicratian.

‘. Where do you get off telling another freeper here that their opinions are ‘meaningless’ and ‘worthless’. Lay off!!” Did your beloved new friend *not* say the very same things of Long Elegant Legs? Are you going to insist *she* apologize?

It would really help if you would read the thread before posting. You might be able to see that your friends started with the personal attacks, sexist remarks, well, you can't see the one, as it was pulled by the mod, but you can clearly see the one sided 12 on 1 brute tactics.

As for your accusations, against me, you best find them, and not be doing as your pals did earlier, making them up. I have been only on message and on topic for 12 hours. While less than 6 others have entered into debate with me. 2 holding the same or nearly same views as I and 4, well, still to be determined actually. Since no one has yet directly answered any of my questions or posed a serious mature alternative.

Insulting my family, education, sex, age, IQ, language, hair style and breast size, does not count as debate.

Allow me to interject my own obscure Shakespearian jape:

Now that is irony. Coming from someone who’s favorite band is the Satanic Type O Negative death metalheads who’s most famous song is a blasphemous attack on the integrity of a Proverbs 31 Woman. I wonder if your friends have the same world views you so proudly hail.

My dear little victim, *most* of the Dobes I rehabbed went to -family-. all of whom had children.

The others went to good friends...who had children.

The dogs all lived long, much loved lives with *families* who adored them.

FYI, I have read every single word of your so-called ‘words of wisdom’ and I feel compelled to simply state “But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;”.

I’ve forgotten more about dogs and training than you’ll ever know.

As to all your legalese, piffle.

Where I come from, a woman’s word is her bond and honor.

I’ve laid it confidently on the line, many a time and never had cause to regret it.

[then again, we haven’t much use for “lawyers” around here...truth, honor and integrity seem to suffice]

You’re going to make a very good lawyer, BTW.

You twist and contort words wonderfully and write volumes that say virtually nothing.

You chose your career path well.

Congratulations.

Now that is ignorance.

Peter Steele left this world a devout and observant Catholic, having rejoined the church after years of agnosticism.

None of them were ever “Satanic”.

Are you sure you want to be a lawyer, if you can’t even get *those* widely known facts straight or did you simply not research them before you shot off your mouth?

[you really should bring along your paralegal on these threads]

Alice Cooper is actually my favorite band.

Care to condemn him to Hell, too?

:)

[your post was also the lamest pseudo ad hominem I’ve ever seen...better luck next time]

Were I you, I would avoid ‘matching wits’ with Shibumi.

You -cannot- win.

It is impossible.

[Forgive her, Shibumi...she knows not what she does]

“HOW does one feign intellect?”

I simply cannot stop laughing at the unintentional irony contained within that one, short sentence.

[talk about “self immolation]...;]
