'...grief can take care of itself, but to get the full value of a
joy you must have somebody to divide it with...'
Mark Twain (1835-1910)
[insert general holiday excitement stuff here]

ok so sayers (and anybody else who is interested) i can take you off being a contributor and make it so that you can post comments like megs does. just email me if youre interested.

has anybody seen the news lately? I'm talking in particular about the 6wk old kitten that was kicked and run over with a bike by a bunch of 12year old kids. I find the act itself quite appalling, but i find iteven more amusing that the police did not figure that during school holidays kids get really bored and watch tv, therefore seeing the news and other adverts for this sort of behaviour. And of course being curious this would have led to more kids trying to do it themselves.

As proven by the fact that after the incident at seven hills was publicised there was, the next day a similar one in mount druitt where a kitten was doused in petrol and set alight, and yet another in shepperton where the kitten was kicked around.

I am astounded by the fact that police are surprised by the increase in animal cruelty since they were the ones who basically planted the ideas into bored teens heads to start off with. It also serves to wonder where the heck are these kids parents??? and why are these kids roaming the streets late at night? maybe instead of being punished these kids should be forced to spen more time with their parents...when I was 12-13ish this would have been a detterent to any sort of criminal behaviour.
