    Sea World

    I have a passion for these intelligent and emotional animals that don't have a way to voice their displeasure of their situation. If you don't want to read what I have to say on the subject, you are free to walk away as well.

    Please tell me what knowledge of orcas you have that came DIRECTLY from watching the orcas swim in cement tanks at Seaworld. I would really like to know.

    Sea World

    You think the dolphins at DC are different than the ones at a dolphinarium in Mexico?? If you are so passionate about how there is nothing wrong with swim with dolphin places, take 90 minutes out of your life and watch the Cove. See how patronizing these places endangers all of the dolphins...

    Sea World

    Uhhhh...the library? The internet? You will learn a hell of a lot more from watching an internet clip of orcas behaving in their natural habitat than you will by going to Seaworld and watching "Shamu" swim in a circle waving his pectoral fin at the crowd. Contrary to what Seaworld tells you...

    For those against Sea World....yet another question

    Blackstone just sold a huge amount of Seaworld stock a few weeks ago... I'm not sure if they are still the majority owner or not...

    For those against Sea World....yet another question

    I don't live near any Bush Garden Parks, but no, I wouldn't go. I do live near a Six Flags park that has bottlenose dolphins, sea lions, etc. I will not go to that park until they no longer force their animals to do tricks for food. They used to have an orca named Shouka that was housed for a...

    She should look at the Monterey Bay Aquarium. It's an amazing facility!

    Sea World

    I do think $eaworld has done *some* good. I don't think all of the animals they house are abused or mistreated. However, I do not believe anyone, including Seaworld, has the ability to properly house sea mammals such as dolphins, sea lions, and orcas. It's one thing to temporarily take in...

    Root Canal Advice for DS20

    Meh - Root canals aren't a big deal anymore. I have horrible dental phobia issues and I took a double dose of valium about an hour before the appointment. The endodontist also gave me nitrous during the procedure and it wasn't a huge deal. They had to take a small break here and there when I...

    Rant: Carseat Safety

    I would hope that people don't follow the most safety standards out of ignorance, but sadly it isn't always the case. Technology is always changing and we continue to learn new techniques. I do not understand a parent that says they have been doing something for blah many years and when...

    If you're staying in for NYE, what are you making?

    DD and DH will be just getting home after a visit to his family for several days. I will probably make a big pot of spaghetti sauce and then freeze the leftover sauce to be used later. I'll get some roasted garlic bread from Costco and maybe have a salad as well. Now I am getting hungry...

    Rant: Carseat Safety

    I really hate arguments like this. By your logic, why does anyone bother to put kids in car seats at all? When my brother was an infant, my parents used to set him in a basket on the floor of the car by my mom's feet. He survived so I don't know why anyone puts their kids in any kind of car...

    So who else had gifts tied up with the UPS delays?

    People can tell their kids that Santa got stuck in the snow at the North Pole. I seriously don't get why it is such a huge deal. Disappointing? Of course! But hardly worth getting all worked up about, in my opinion. (Not that you are worked up about it...just the general feeling I have read...

    You can find more information than I have the time to post just by googling "winter car seat safety".

    Rant: Carseat Safety

    The point is that the puffy jacks "deflate" when compressed in a car accident which in turn loosens the straps like they aren't wearing the jacket at all. A child can easily be ejected. Sweatshirts and fleece shirts don't compress the same way puffy jackets do so they are generally more secure...

    Rant: Carseat Safety

    Even car seat manufacturers say to remove thick and puffy jackets and snowsuits before buckling children in. You can see in the video and pictures that you can't get car seat straps tight enough when the child is wearing a thick or puffy jacket. Look how loose the straps get if the jacket is...
