  1. OK, here is a question for you. It's a dog question. You know how much Sheba
    means to you, right? What if you had to choose between your dogs life and
    some human's life - which would you choose? Say it was a housewife in Boston
    or a troll in usenet - would they be worth more than your dog. What if you
    had to choose between JRH or Bill Davidson (oe me) or your dog's life. Which
    would you choose? Or is it only family/good friends/relatives that would be
    worth more than your dog to you in a hypothetical situation?

    Hey loser, that's a LOT more than "one question". I take it your
    double-digit IQ wasn't in math?

    Is your definition of loser someone who is gainfully employed and around 5
    times smarter than you are?

    Give it time, you may get lucky and say something funny one day. It's a

    I don't know why you say it was a silly post. I was dead serious. I would
    like to know. I wasn't trolling you (this time)

    It's silly because it's a nonsensical hypothetical. No reasonable
    scenario would give rise to a "it's him or the dog" threat. It's like
    asking if I would prefer to have Martians or Venusians invade Earth.

    Of course, everyone knows Venusian women are hotter, so, maybe I coud
    choose.

    Oh c'mon - you're being a meanyhead - it's a hypothetical - I'm really
    interested in your thoughts on this. It's an ethical dilemma. If you don't
    reply I will never ever laugh at your jokes again.

    I think he's just being silly again David (the sensical one, not him)
    and you should seriously consider allegedly "killfiling" him. We don't
    want too many of these Mensa people clogging up the Group anyway.

    With friends like him, who needs enemas? ;o)

    Oh, all right, just stop whining!

    I would choose to have the dog killed in lieu of killing anyone who I
    cared about more then the dog. That list of people varies. The only
    permanent member of that list is my daughter. Everybody else need
    worry.

    Well that's on honest reply and I would have thought less of you had you
    said anything else. (It's just . . . well. . .it would be difficult to have
    to explain to Lee Michaels widow that you had to put him down because Sheba
    is more important to you.)

    Hey! I was a member of Mensa a long time ago. I took the membership
    tests just for fun, to see how I'd do. I did. of course, brilliantly!

    Found out the only thing Mensa members have in common is the ability to
    do really well on standardized IQ tests.

    I always wondered how many mensa members there would be if they administered
    a social skills test.

    I figured that it would cut the numbers in half, at least.
