    I tell people about it all the time.

    On Thursday nights after bell choir rehearsal at church, we have a brief closing prayer and my friend Harry usually turns to me first and says, "Okay, whose cat or what member of your crazy "family" are we praying for this week?" Everyone who knows me pretty much knows about the websites and Pet Talk!

    Only my sister really understands because she belongs to a pug forum and is just as crazy about her dogs as I am about my crew.

    People at work think it's great that I've found people to relate to........they think I'm kinda strange because I don't have a lot of friends. Most other people I try to tell, just look at me with a blank expression.

    This is my family.

    Slick, if even your Mom doesn't know - how on earth did you ever explain the ~ ahem ~ interesting Christmas presents you bought me while she was with you Did you say you were buying them for Santa

    I met you through Gini which really isn't that far off the mark.

    What a great thread this is!! Everytime something has come up that's PT related, I have started to explain myself. At that point, I always get looks from anybody and everybody that I have three heads. All these people(including my whole family)think I'm crazy when I bring it up. I've learned to be happy with PT all by myself and bring it up only when necessary. No one can understand why I would want to associate with strangers I've met on the Internet


    I've been Boo'd...
    Thanks Barry!

    All my friends think I'm weird when I tell them about it. They don't share my total love for animals as I do.

    Yeah Slick, blame it on Gini! If I remember correctly you and I met first in Seattle, before you went to the BBQ. That's OK.. Gini's easy to blame stuff on NO, WAIT! It's all Mario's fault!! Now I remember! You and Mario and me.. *oh, nevermind - "

    Just work with me on this, OK Laurie??? Mom didn't even know I went down that weekend. As for the Customs Occifer....yes sir, I'm going to meet a friend in Seattle. How long have I known her? Well, about 4 years.

    Like I would tell him the truth about meeting you over the Net a couple of months before.

    How appropriate.

    Thursday night church visits.

    After what goes on Thursday during the day, it's nice to know someone is praying for us!

    "Internet Kooks", well - I've been called worse. My son and DIL are just glad I have finally found some "crazies" that I've become close to, and that they have met and trust. What's not to like about people that sniff their dogs feet to check if they smell like fritoes??
