Subject: City folks are confusing.

This is a quote from an article on saving the horses from slaughter.

"Thoroughbreds should be retired, adopted out, or

euthanized. We must end the slaughter of horses."

What the heck? I might be just a bumpkin, but I always thought "euthanize" was a fancy way to say "kill," and to slaughter is to kill,(or euthanize) where I come from.

Why gee Hap, do you think someone needs to send that person a dictionary? That is hilarious! Why I bet that person even has nice fancy education to go with their lack of understanding of words! (NT) -- rose, 13:24:35 05/05/07 Sat
- I guess if we had called them euthanizers all these years instead of killers, we wouldn't have stirred up this mess. (NT) -- Hap, 16:28:19 05/05/07 Sat
  - I didn't know what a really good guy I was until now. I euthanized 12 wild hogs this week and I am sure nobody ate any of them. There is one buzzard that somehow got in the pig trap and got himself caught though. The graceful creature (gunuine turkey vurlure) stinks so bad and stands ready to puke on you when you try to let him out that I am going to let the slow hand of 'father time' uthanizeme him. I am even going to respect the 'sacred ground' where all this took place at least until it dries up or the horrible smell goes away. Damn, I'm really a nice guy and didn't know it.
