I wanted a more bullshie personality ,someone who understood the politics and debate about survival
My career as a civil servant was not special-I should have ben licking arses and not rubbing my superiors up the wrong way
You stayed true to yourself , which at the end of the day brings it`s own reward ........... You probably wouldnt have been able to live with yourself if you had been a " Brown Noser " , would you ?
Love me, love my dog.

My husband would be a nightmare to get to know. He has been known to tell people that he really doesn't like children and can never eat a whole one. When filling in a form he has put yes please in the tick box next to sex and when stating his religeon he has been Wraith, Klingon and Sith Lord. He likes dogs but is not fond of cats and will tell you that they look at him funny and try and grab his gentleman vegetables.29-09-2010, 07:34 PM

I can never understand how someone can claim to be a religious person and not be interested in other living creatures who share our world.
So for me it is a very important question to ask. It really has little to do with how many pets they have or what they like to keep as pets.
Personally I could do without 90% of all the humans I've ever met face to face but there is not one single dog I've ever come across that I would not like to be at my side right now.
