  1. If you are more holistically inclined and your dog has a yeast infection in his ears, you can try white vinegar - a common home remedy for treating dog ear infections. Use heavily diluted vinegar to remove the debris from his ears and to restore the natural balance. Fill his canal and allow it to soak. Massage the base of his ears to ensure total immersion. Wipe out any excess liquid with a cotton swab. Repeat this a few times a week.

     

    ......

     

     

    mix a solution of 1 cup of Water, 2 cups of Vinegar and 1 tablespoon of Rubbing Alcohol. Pour the mixture into a spray bottle and squirt it onto the outside of the ear canal once or twice per week and after every swim. You can also use this solution applied with a cotton ball to clean out the inner part of the ear. The alcohol in the mixture will help to dissolve wax, whereas the vinegar creates an acidic environment that will not allow yeast or bacteria to grow in.

     

     

    ......

     

    found that online after a quick search.. i know that humans use alcohol to treat ear infections too, so it might help. basically the acid combats the growth (as it says) and the alcohol dries the bacteria out, hopefully killing it

  2. I'm thinking of getting a kindle purely for reading at work.

     

    But what I want to know is, is it easy to get books for free? I don't really fuck with torrents.

     

    i signed onto the whole torrent thing and i'm glad i did

    basically any book or movie i want, i can get for free and pretty quickly.

    if you have a kindle, just make sure it's a file type that is supported, and i've had no problem with that either.

     

    if you want to continue avoiding torrents but still find free books it might be a bit tougher.

     

    anyway, i'm pretty stoked on taking another long vacation without having to lug a laptop, books, mp3 player, or phone around. i really wasn't sure how i'd feel about the e-reader, as i never wanted one, someone just gave me one. but this is one arena where it really paid off, in so many ways, to have an open mind. i feel like any illusion i had about the benefits of physicality was swept away almost instantly.

  3. we watched goonies the other night

     

    never say die

     

    first live concert..bad brains!

     

    my first movie in a theater was STAR WARS

    i was only a baby

    so the second movie was EMPIRE

     

    no wonder my name is what it is

  4. easy tiger, its just MY opinion (and apparently the opinion of a few people who agree with me)

     

    i adjust my carbon footprint in other ways. nobody is perfect, everyone has vices or tendencies that fuck up the environment. yes,even you. i walk/bike whenever possible, shop locally, recycle/compost and have significantly decreased my meat consumption. so guess what- if i want to support printed word, i think i am entitled to that.

    most of my vacations have me toting around one large backpack filled half with books and half with clothes and i wouldn't have it any other way.

    and i really feel bad for you that you cant appreciate a beautifully stocked library/bookshelf. feel free to send the books my way!

     

     

     

    ok, tiger. we are not arguing.

    let me explain this to you: sometimes people have opinions that don't agree. it actually doesn't mean that you are being personally attacked;

    i feel really bad for you that when someone has a different opinion than you, you feel like you have to rush to type out a defense of yourself.

     

    i was merely pointing out MY OPINION that your fear (and you called it that) was irrational, especially in the context of our modern world, where we have had the chance to observe that videogames did not end board games, mp3's and digital music didn't end analog music, and digital media won't destroy analog media.. ...it's an improvement on it.

     

    so guess what? you don't have to prove to me what you are entitled to (really, i'd advise that you shouldn't have to prove anything to anyone) ...if you think are environmentally conscious or responsible, great, but who cares.. because i do know that the behavior of one individual usually has no impact on the world at large.. it's the mentality of the masses.

     

    if you'd like to pay for shipping, i can send books your way.

  5. fuck reading anything longer than this post on a computer.

    i will never own an e-reader, and i too print out documents. id rather waste some paper and kill trees to keep printed word alive. i have this fear that eventually in my lifetime, or even by the time i have children, we will see the end of books. everything will be published only in e-version.

     

    my coworker prints out reams of scientific papers and it drives me nuts

    it's time to get used to reading that crap online, you are killing the environment for the 'feel' of something

     

    books will never go away completely, just like vinyl.do you also think mp3's will portend the end of physical copies of music? yeah, right.. that's why we still press music on LP.

    your fear is an irrational one.

    the much more likely thing is that our environment will get crushed by our misuse of resources.

     

    i got an e-reader, and yes, it takes energy, but hardly any

    there is also no replacement for the convenience of bringing what would be physically massive books along with oneself on vacation

     

    i am also getting really sick of looking at my bookcase, filled to the brim with books and honestly, i'm ready to get rid of most of them. they don't give me satisfaction when i look at them and think "wow, what an experience it was to turn all those pages.. i'll never replace that feeling of paper on my fingers" ....nope, i think back on the stories.

  6. ^yes, very sad. i try to do work for shelter and abandoned dogs so i really feel for them

     

    lots of awesome additions

     

    congrats serum.. wow. 2 fucking puppies. i do not envy you.

     

    grd i'm sorry your pup is having issues :(

  7. finally went to some comedy this year

     

    took my man to see Gaffigan in January and Charlie Murphy the other night

     

    Gaffigan was classic. great performance, and i'm sure it helped that it was being taped.

    we were way in the back and they moved a whole bunch of people from the way back to the front to fill up those expensive seats. we didn't get moved unfortunately but did get to spread out and put our feet up

     

    CM was funny. after i'd heard his standup wasn't so great i had low expectations so that may have helped but he definitely had me laughing.

    even ad libbed some super funny shit to some annoying lady in the audience.

  8. Dear Dirty Taco Steve,

     

    I'm not gay, I just think it's childish to use the word in such a manner. I also think it's childish that you, what I assume to be a grown man, have taken such offence to the opinions of people on the internet....IT'S THE INTERNET. Don't PM people getting umad about negs, it makes you look like a child...even more so than you already do here. Enjoy the three red tic tacs innit.

     

    grd

     

     

     

    dear grd

     

    i noticed immediately this guy can't take any jokes

    he didn't even put tacos as the last thing he ate

     

     

    hahahahaha

  9. Dear people who neg propped me,

     

    I don't give a shit, neg me some more for all I care. You people wonder why the site is going to shit and nobody comes on here and actually contributes, one reason is because people like to neg people for the dumbest shit ever.

     

    -Steve-
