It's these types of assumptions that can get you in trouble.

Woman kills her dogs to move in with fiance

I'm happily doomed to spinsterhood if that's what it takes to get out.
"Q: About a year ago, I made the heart-wrenching decision to leave a great job, house, friends and family to move to Hawaii with my fiancé.

As part of this transition, I also chose to have my two beloved chow chow dogs put to sleep. This was done for a variety of reasons, including their age and temperament, the smaller living quarters in Hawaii, the tropical climate and frequent travels, all with the goal of making our new life as stress-free as possible. I adored those dogs, but I justified their sacrifice to the greater good of a successful relationship.

After six months, I am still tormented by memories of my dogs. The depths of anguish and loss make me think I got rid of them for purely selfish reasons, which is the kind of behavior I thought I reviled. I feel that I have gone from dog-lover to dog-killer in one trans-Pacific flight.

This is not the person my fiancé fell in love with, and I fear that I will begin to blame and resent him for my emotional despair.

Do I try to morph into the kind of steely person who makes the tough decisions, swallows the consequences and moves on? Can I ever be the warm-hearted, caring animal-lover I once was, or will I always be a fake? What can I do to repair this soul-revealing wound?"

A: Buy a new dog.

I need an advice column. How much do these people get paid?

It was the first one I have noticed. I'm quite excited. It seemed like a rolling one, but our building is not very tall, and there was no swaying. I was also disappointed that it didn't look different outside .
That was a 7.0, but it was waaay out in the ocean so no one was affected and no tsunami.

don't be disappointed if it looks the same outside. Believe me, you want it to look exactly the same.

She's not that bad either, but I agree, the chick in Venice is better looking.

No, I thought maybe I'd be able to see movement outside. I didn't want anything to change, like, permanently. Anyway, it was fun. I think I need a cigarette.

Carl Everett on drugs

Proof.

Chicago White Sox designated hitter Carl Everett criticized gays, fans, Wrigley Field and other targets during an interview for the July edition of Maxim magazine, the Chicago Tribune said.

Everett said "Gays being gay is wrong. Two women can't produce a baby, two men can't produce a baby, so it's not how it's supposed to be. ... I don't believe in gay marriages. I don't believe in being gay."

"Fan is short for fanatic — he's crazy about something he really doesn't know about. And it's proven that 99 percent of baseball fans have no idea what they're watching."

Wrigley Field, the worst ballpark: "They need to implode Wrigley."

Jose Canseco is a "bitter, ignorant individual."

The congressional steroid hearings were ludicrous: "We have a war going on — I have family in that war — yet we're talking about steroids. ... If everybody in the world got on steroids, we'll still lose more kids to a war than we will from steroids."

I think maybe this guy has some issues.

With everyone moving out there, I really need to consider relocating. Does anyone know of a High-Tech company that would like to hire an East Coaster as General Counsel?

I'm willing to do very little work but always sound like I know what I'm talking about, only need about $400,000 as long as the housing costs aren't too bad, and am even willing to hang out late in the office telling people what to do when there's a big deal going on.

Thank you for your application, Mr. Smarmiest. Unfortunately at the moment there are no cush in-house jobs available in California. However, I'd be happy to redirect you to our lesser known yet still quite fun neighbor, Nevada. Nevada is a land of easy living and low taxes. I hope you enjoy Nevada, Mr. Smarmiest. Send my regards!

Sincerely,
BCG Attorney Search

Now your posting stuff that isn't even news?

He's been known as Jurassic Carl for at least a half-dozen years.
