    Another topic discussion reminded me of a recent commercial warning on TV directed at adolescent kids that post on My Space. Has anyone seen it? Stranger's, men and boys are asking a young teenage girl questions about what she's wearing because they recognize her face and provocative pictures she posted on her My Space site. I just saw this commercial this week. My thoughts were the same about the comment made that websites are available to the world. The commercial serves a very good warning to teens to be careful of what they post about themselves. That they're not just posting private info to their friends, but to any and everybody. (scarey!)

    I've seen violent and graphic video clips from U-Tube on the news - thanks to camera-video phones. I guess that stuff isn't copyrighted. :confused: I stay away from those sites. (too much information - TMI)

    This was on the news tonight and Senator Dianne Feinstein is pushing a bill through to ban the use of BPA.

    Thanks for all the replies! Pugs have the best expressions :D Kipawa - I try to keep all of my birds unclipped as i like to see them fly :) I take them out on harnesses and flightlines in the summer to get some real flying time in, they love it!! I have one poor conure who had her wing mutilated by someone trying to clip without knowing what they were doing. She drops like a stone if she tries to fly, and the wing wont ever grow back so she will never fly again, poor Lola :( AJs Human - Ruby wont have all of her colours through until she is about 3 (she's 6 months now). She should get much more vibrant colours :) Tanza - Leaving tomorrow at about 8:30 for Crufts, its just 45 mins down the motorway for me - a local one!

    I should add that Seti hurt his paw as soon as I started training. He was on "house arrest" for a month and the doctor told us that we were not to allow him to run or jump. Yeah right - like that's going to happen!!! Anyhow, Seti is all better but I wanted to add a little basenji tale to the story :)
