Dog Classification Questions asked
Resolved Question: Unusual husky coloration?
[the red dog in the picture --->] http://www.northern-epic.com/images/yeticolor.jpg
I'm looking for information on any other purebred Siberian Huskies with this coloration. Vibrant red and white with a black "saddle" and other black highlights in his coat. He does not fit the classification of "Copper" red, and after spending quite a bit of time searching the internet, I really can't find any other pictures of huskies with similar coloration (the black markings). The only reference I can find is to a "Mikiuk Tuktu Tornyak" who is described as a "unusual long-coated fox-red".
The dog in the picture I posted is mine -- he is a papered purebred. I'm looking for pictures or links to information on other Siberians with this coloration.
moreVoting Question: is marley&me a non-fiction book?
i have to read a non fiction book for my English class, and i heard this book is really really good. question is, is it non-fiction? i know it's autobiographical, so i thought that would go under the classification of "non-fiction", but i think the book is narrated by the dog, so i'm not too sure. anyone know officially if it would fit into the non-fiction genre? thanks.
moreResolved Question: is the dichotomy wild/domestic animals recognized scientifically?
i don't remember being taught in biology that domestic animals are a classification of animals. however, some traits can be observed in most domestic animals that make me think it is logical to group them together. lions are all generally brown, elephants grey, zebra black and white, etc. but what is the color of chicken, dogs, cows, goats, cats etc? in these domestic species coloration varies between members of the same species. it could be possible that a cat is closer to a chicken than it is to a lion

moreResolved Question: Logarithmic model (requires thinking)?
The United States Geological Survey measures the quality of a water sample by using the diversity index d, given by:
d = -[p1 * log2(p1) + p2 * log2(p2) + … + pn * log2(pn)],
where n is the number of different taxons (biological classifications) represented in the sample and p1 trough pn are the percentages of organisms in each of the n taxons. For example, if 10% of the organisms in a water sample are E.coli and 90 % are fecal coliform, then
d = - [0.1 * log2(0.1) + 0.9 * log2(0.9) ] ≈ 0.5
a) Find the value of d when the only organism found in a sample is E.coli bacteria.
c) If a water sample is found to contain 20 % of its organisms of one type, 30 % of another type, and 50 % of a third type, then what is the diversity index for the water sample?
d) If the organisms in a water sample are equally distributed among 100 different taxons, then what is the diversity index?
e) If 99 % of the organisms in a water sample are from one taxon and the other 1 % are equally distributed among 99 other taxons, then what is the diversity index?
f) The diversity index can be found for populations other than organisms in a water sample. Find the diversity index for the dogs in the movie 101 Dalmatians (cartoon version).
moreResolved Question: Dog breeders, how many sorts are there?
I am sometimes surprised that people classify dog breeds into 2 categories, good or BYB. But surely there are more, I have 4 classifications, what do you think of these.
1. Good ethical breeders, do medical tests and understand genetics, breed for the best healthy top dogs.
2. Breeders Do health tests, have nice dogs but do not really understand genetics, normally have a couple of dogs and breed every 2 years.
3. BYB Normal people that breed their pets, some do health tests, some don't
4. Puppy Mills
KoAussie, I do agree with you about some breeders that know better but seem more interested in puppy numbers than eliminating faults.

ok. so an update on these 2 questions:

with this puppy with practically no ears.
so I was able to contact the chicago bully breed rescue and she said that she would look in to it.
and she said that we are hoping to shut down yet another back yard breeder
I am hoping to foster this pup, and hopefully eventually adopt him (we cannot yet adopt a pup b/c for one, if it doesnt work out with the pup [which has happend before] we dont want to be at a loss for a bunch of things. like if he doesnt fit our lifestyle. and we dont have the funds at the moment to pay the money to adopt him just yet)
so, if you could tell me all I need to know about this.
anything at all.
they are hopefully going to take away these peoples dogs. (I have spoken with said breeder, they are very very rude and ignorant) thinking that the sad excuse of a crop job that they did is normal and thats how all apbt crops look like. they were very frustrating.
here is an example of our conversation:
them:
hello the price of 250 wouldnt work with him but we have a black male that is his brother that looks just as good he doesnt have his ears cropped but is ready to go the sits stays and listens to all comands!!!!!!!!! call us 1(630)340-5589 we are located in the northwest suburbs of chicago!
me: well, I would figure with that terrible crop job that 'dog fighters' would LOVE this dog.
instead of it going to a great family
them :
U obviously know nothing about the bully breeds and that his cropping is the correct cropping and regonized by the ukc. are dogs have purple ribbon bred dogs that run in there pedigrees we dont sell to anyone BUT families and not to20punk kids thats why we dont sell are dogs for 100.00.Have you ever seen a bully show??? hmm ukc and adba judges judge the shows most bullies ALL have the same cropping
how many dogs do u know personally with there ears cropped?? yeah im sure more than likely NONE so for 1 small person oppinion who real gives a SHIT....Please dont waste your time or mine responding......DO YOUR HOMEWORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
me:
see, that is where you are wrong
here are my breeders dogs:

and another example:
http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff41/hotelcali2202/cropped.jpg
I posted some pics of the pup you are selling. everyone of the replyers wants you in jail. this is not an acceptable crop job that you have here.
you would be turned down in most shows (UKC is the only major registration that accepts apbt, akc accepts AmStaffs)
and by the way, any smart person would not buy this pup from you. you are a BYB (Back Yard Breeder)
razors edge is NOT a classification of an American Pit Bull Terrier.
it is a label that some use to make their dog more desirable.
the only reason I would buy this puppy is to get him from you
your crop job is completley unacceptable
and I reported you by the way.
I will enjoy watching your dogs taken away

moreResolved Question: White German Shepherd Dog?
I have been told that there is no such thing as a white GSD, so what would my purebred GSD, who is classified as white based on color, be called?
Keep in mind please that both of his parents are colored GSD, and one of them each had a gene that when doubled causes bleached/white coloring. I'm not trying to pass him off as a white shepherd like these people who breed whites to whites and try to make a new breed of it. He is NOT a white shepherd.
If he is a white (color classification by the AKC) GSD, what should he be called if there is "no such thing".
Albino would be if the eyes were red, and there was no pigmentation in the nose, eye rims, or elsewhere.
My dog is tan where a normal black and tan GSD is black, and creme/white where a normal black and tan GSD is tan. His nose is black, his eye rims are black, and his eyes are brown. He isn't albino.
Apricot: They cannot be shown in AKC, but they are registered with AKC and are classified as white.
Captain Obvious: My dog is not a white shepherd, as he is not descended from white shepherds or white colored GSD. He is from colored parentage.
Captain: That pair of dogs hasn't been bred again. The pups were sold because they don't deserve to be killed or abandoned due to color. Also, we know other breeders who are doing white shepherds, and they wanted some for their lines.
The breeder is very conscientious, not a puppy mill, and has been breeding for over 35 years. Due to this pair's breeding, she found out which dog's carry the gene, and doesn't breed them together anymore.
BTW, in the litter of 8, 5 were white.
Greekman, this is not the same question. Someone on here told me that there is no such thing as a white GSD, and obviously there is because it's a color. I am proving that.
Also, he was not "going after me", it was excited nipping. If he was "going after me", that would mean that he had drive, and you said that no white GSD has any drive. Are you contradicting yourself now?

I have recently learned (via YA) that there is no such sub-breed, if you will, of Yorkshire terriers and the like. I did not know that these miniature dogs were the result of irresponsible breeders breeding the runts of the litter to produce a smaller dog.

moreResolved Question: What Coloring is my dog?
He was white as a puppy, but now his coloring has changed. I'm just not sure if there is an actual classification for the coloring he has now. What color is he?
Oh, and I'm looking for an actual GSD coloring. He's purebred, so I can't just call him a color that isn't accepted by AKC.
He's currently a UKC show dog (he's registered with AKC too and we're working on changing his coloring), and he competes against the regular colors.
As far as his nose, he's just got his winter nose still. In summer it is totally black.
My boss at the GSD breeders has explained that somewhere in his parents background they had a common ancestor which carried an albino "gene" that causes all other colors to be diluted or faded.
Pending his OFA testing, he may be breeding for my boss as he is an excellent GSD specimen besides color. Another dog could change the color of the pups, but still keep my dogs great qualities.
If anyone has any questions about genetics, or my work, or anything, feel free to e-mail me as I don't want to overload the question area.
For UKC he is registered as German Shepherd Dog White, so he is shown with the German Shepherd Dogs. I showed him in White Shepherds the first time and we lost all of those points because he wasn't registered to show in that group.
And he is a purebred GSD!
(Most of those previous edits are due to answers I got from asking this previously.)

I found a category - 'Bull Fighting' - here on YA, but upon clicking, the information given was that there were no questions there in relation to that classification. I feel a worthwhile one which could form part of YA is 'Animal Neglect and Cruelty.' I am an animal lover, and in particular, dogs. I have worked on a voluntary basis abroad and found it particularly difficult to get assistance for issues relating to advice and support when I witnessed and was seeking help for neglected and injured animals. As Yahoo Answers is worldwide, it would, in my opinion, be helpful to access people who can provide support and advice to others who I know have been in a similar position to mine. For example, you are in one country on holiday, see a sick/injured animal, but don't know what to do because you have no idea what provision may be available there. Certainly for me, access to an English speaking community would have been so helpful. Ideas, views and advice, please? Thank you.
I have posted a similar questions in Pets section, and am getting positive responses, with people saying they think it is a good idea. One person has suggested a petition - albeit I don't know how to do that - relatively new to YA! Also, if I can find out how to do it, would that help me to achieve the goal of getting a new category onto YA? Keep the answers rolling in please. My sincere thanks to all who do.

moreResolved Question: Are you a Sheep, a Wolf or a Sheepdog?
Sheep are people who want to be taken care of and lack the capacity for violence or self defense that characterise the Sheepdog or the Wolf. They exist as a group where individualism is shunned to the expense of groupthink.
The Wolf is the predator. He lives for himself at the expense of others. Where guile works not, he employs violence or abuse as tools.
The Sheep dog wishes in a way that he were Sheep, but his capacity for realism, self-sufficiency (or awareness), and capacity for the same violence as the Wolf put him in the middle. He decides to take sides and protect the Sheep even when the Sheep themselves see him no better than a Wolf. Normally only a Sheepdog can understand what motivates another Sheepdog.
Is there another classification that I am missing?
I am Sheepdog. I did not become so until later in life than most Sheep who become Sheepdogs.
I could be Wolf, but honor, integrity, and respect for "What is Right" prevent this. Do Sheep KNOW they are Sheep?
Rags91, you may be a Sheepdog. Sheep have a very hard time understanding the Sheepdog. Rather than take the abuse, your lonerism may be the mechanism that keeps you from being true Wolf and turning on the Sheep.
moreResolved Question: Give me a clear definition of "species" that does not contradict itself.?
I understand that it's a classification below genus, but what actually IS a species? Any population of like animals which can be interfertile, some say.. but if I lock my dog in a cage or neuter him, does that make him a different animal? And what about donkies who can not produce donkies. Are they no species at all? I think the whole idea needs to be thrown away or rethought. Two genetically compatible animals? So animals who produce mutations or do not otherwise successfully interbreed are not a species?
Ok. Then I propose the solution of calling them "kinds" again which is how the dictionary defines species for the most part anyhow. It doesn't allow for the same logical holes and it doesn't pretend to have a full and comprehensive classification for all biological life, which we do not.
so people with down syndrome or other genetic disorders are of a different species?
These DNA answers don't seem accurate, since genus, kingdom, species classification was made a generation before we even knew there was such a thing as DNA. So to say that's the reason for it can't be historically true. And the Theory of evolution seems irrelevant or just plain besides the point.
Because you can't have it both ways- are animals mutants changing and "evolving" and so never really the same animal, or are they classed according to the DNA that no one knew about at the time and that would have to, therefore, be a stagnant constant generating the same defining characteristics in every generation? If evolution is true, than "species" fits even more loosely, not better.
The concept of species is man made, concieved by man. And that is why it necessitates a man defined meaning. We didn't find it written in a book that grew on a tree. We made it up. And there are a couple interesting if conflicting possible meanings given here.

moreResolved Question: My thoughst on BSL what do you think?
My problem with breed specific legislation is that we are punishing certain breeds or classifications of dogs and their owners for behavior that we ignore in others. While it is true that a few of the game dog breeds have done an astonishing amount of damage when they do bite, statistically very few have ever bitten a person. Punishing the Pit Bull or Staffordshire Bull Terrier or American Staffordshire Terrier and their owners for doing more damage than a Poodle is like banning all sledgehammers for one bent tack. The sledgehammer did more damage than a tack hammer, but it was in the hands of an idiot who didn't use it for its intended purpose. We find it horrifying when a person is maimed or killed by a dog, especially when the person is a child. However we rationalize our reaction to the incident, we must remain rational enough to place the responsibility for the tragedy directly on the people involved, not on the animal itself.
To legislate or ban all items or creatures having the potential for mauling or killing people would include everything from automobiles, guns, and planes to lions, tigers, and bears. Oh my, there go my Martinis and Marlboros as well!
The cirumstances that make a dog bite a person vary with the situation, training, and/or environment which the dog encounters or lives in. This stark fact remains: all breeds and varieties of dogs can, will, and do bite. Some breeds are more prone to bite people than others, and some are more likely to do serious damage when a bite occurs.
Breed specific legislation addresses only dogs that fall into the latter category and fails to address the vast majority of dog bite cases. Statistically, people are bitten more frequently by small dogs than by large ones, but incidents never reach the media because of the small amount of damage. No legislature is drafting laws to ban the ownership of Chihuahuas.
Due to the tenacity and physicality of the Bull and Terrier breeds, people have decided to make them one of the primary representations of a bad dog. People use the dog to compensate for their own insecurity and to promote a macho image. These people and their dogs should be avoided. Unfortunately, many "backyard breeders" are willing to breed "mean dog A" to "bad dog B" and promote the dogs in the local paper. We have all seen the ads for these dogs, Pit Bull, Stafford, or AmStaffs: Any Bull and Terrier breed that threatens, attacks, bites, or even shows aggression toward a person other than in defense of its own people should be neutered at the very least or, preferably, should be destroyed. The danger in owning or being in contact with any animal cannot be over emphasized. If, however, a Teacup Poodle exhibits the same behavior it should receive the same treatment. Although it may not do as much damage, it and its owner are just as liable. Where did all the commen sence go?

moreResolved Question: Yorkies....?
Should the AKC create a new category for "Useless" Dogs to go along with Sporting, Working, etc.
The Yorkie would be a good candidate for that new classification, don't you think? Yippy, useless little gerbils wannabes.
Just a thought.
Yes Ncole- but my opinion isn't lame. Yorkies are nothing but yappy rats- no redeeming qualities whatsoever. And since when did having an educated opinion make one a "hater" or "close minded"?????
You ladies are something else.
Now why all the attacks on Boxers? For all you know I could have Lab or a pitbull. Or a CAT.
Talk about "close minded" and "uneducated opinions".......

moreResolved Question: What is the real difference b/n an APRI dog and an AKC dog? And which should be more expensive?
I am thinking of purchasing a pug puppy. They want $400 for the female and $350.00 for the males - only 1 female in the litter. They are APRI rather than AKC. Are these reasonable prices? And what is the difference b/n the two classifications?
Also, to let everyone know, this was an accidental litter. The male is now fixed, and the female will be fixed soon.
I am also very interested in a simple mixed breed puppy from pound/SPCA.
The reason I want a puppy rather than an adult is b/c I already have 4 other adult dogs, and they have shown that they accept puppies better than adult dogs.
I am not interested in showing this dog, nor would I even slightly consider breeding it.
There are WAY TOO MANY wonderful dogs w/o homes already. I know this.
However, I AM asking if these prices seem reasonable or not.
The only reason I have any interest in them is that they are pugs. I once had a very special friend who was a pug. And since my dachshund just past a month or so ago, and I work with the person who is selling these pugs, I am interested.
If I do not get one of them, I will definitely get a puppy from a shelter.

My German Shepherd Dog is white/tan with a darker white/tan saddle, does he fit into a regular color classification? Is he something different? Is he even a color classification at all?
My German Shepherd Dog is white/tan with a darker white/tan saddle, does he fit into a regular color classification? Is he something different? Is he even a color classification at all? I only have one pic of him on my computer, but how do I put it on here?
Ok, this is the only picture of him that I have on my computer. He, obviously, is the white one. I hope all of you can get a good view of it, if you can't, I'm sorry, I'm new to all of this.
moreResolved Question: Should the IMBECILES under Bush who support him be called low achievers to be politically correct .?
NOUN:
1. A stupid or silly person; a dolt.
2. A person whose mental acumen is well below par.
3. A person of moderate to severe mental retardation having a mental age of from three to seven years and generally being capable of some degree of communication and performance of simple tasks under supervision. The term belongs to a classification system no longer in use and is now considered offensive.
I love the part about under supervision and can relate to what Bush is going through .
He has told them to fix Iraq and still they can not complete this task .
Poor mister Bush and his incompetent staff and those under his order who are just a bunch of Imbeciles .
They are to dumb to know they have been lied to lol .
This country has gone to the dogs and has almost no future ahead of it that is not mired in complete failures and bankruptcy .
moreResolved Question: What breed/dog group is a reliable companion and is a good guard dog?
I am looking for a dog, any breed in any of the following groups: Sporting, Hound, Working, Terrier, Toy, Non-Sporting, Herding, Misc Class, that best fits the following classifications;
-Alert watchdog or guard dog; protective (tell me how does it react to a strange; does it threatens, or just bark?)
-Reliable companion for both owner and family (why? what traits confirm this?)
I'm more in favor of large dogs similar to wolves, such as the Alaskan Malamute, and the other small toy dogs like the Pomeranian. Although these may or may not fit the catergories above, I think the American Eskimo is best? Confirm that please.
moreResolved Question: "TOY" Dogs... Why?!?!?
This is more of a rant than anything, sorry... but why do people call dogs "toys" or "teacups" (as in "i have a toy chihuahua")?? And i'm not talking about people who are referring to the group classification of the dog. It frustrates me because every responsible dog owner knows that there isn't even such a thing as a 'toy' type of any dog! Dogs such as poms and chihuahuas have a standard size, usually around 3-7 pounds (although some get overweight) any dog which falls below that is not a special 'toy' but usually a runt who is more fragile and requires special care and also tends to have higher vet bills as a result of their size! Does anybody else get frustrated with people who call their own dog a 'toy' or those people who are seeking out a 'toy' dog?? Argh!
p.s any reputable breeder will never use the terms 'toy' or 'teacup' in describing their pups or they are frauds & going against kennel club rules!
sorry "tiny toy" would be more specific to what i was referring to. for those of you who had read my question you would have noted that i was not simply referring to the classification of the 'toy breed' as that it is obvious that the breeds pom, chihuahua, yorkie fall under that category.
p.s sorry i don't have access to all the specific rules and regulations that breeder must abide by when selling dogs. although one of the many breeder websites i found have quotes such as this,
"We do not advertise or sell our puppies as "teacups" or "tiny toys"or "pocket poms". A member in good standing with the Canadian Kennel club will never use this termonology as it is against the rules and regulations even to describe the size of the puppy as this."
now who the hell would make something like that up?
ya that is what i thought... :D

moreResolved Question: Which part of the script should I use to draw a picture of?
Lilo And Stitch Script
Read the charges.
Dr. Jumba Jookiba--
lead scientist of
Galaxy Defense Industries--
you stand before this council
accused of illegal
genetic experimentation.
How do you plead?
Not guilty!
My experiments
are only theoretical--
completely
within legal boundaries.
We believe you actually
created something.
Created something?! Ha!
But that would be irresponsible
and unethical.
I would never, ever...
make more than one.
What is that monstrosity?
Monstrosity!
What you see before you
is the first of a new species.
I call it Experiment 626.
He is bulletproof, fireproof
and can think faster
than supercomputer.
He can see in the dark
and move objects
times his size.
His only instinct:
To destroy
everything he touches!
So, it is a monster.
Hey, just a little one.
It is an affront to nature.
It must be destroyed!
Calm yourself, Captain Gantu.
Perhaps it can be reasoned with.
Experiment 626
give us some sign you understand
any of this.
Show us that there is something
inside you that is good.
Hmm?
Meega, nala kweesta!
So naughty!
I didn't teach it that.
Place that idiot scientist
under arrest!
I prefer to be called
evil genius!
And as for that abomination...
it is the flawed product
of a deranged mind.
It has no place among us.
Captain Gantu, take him away.
With pleasure.
Hmm.
Uncomfortable?
Oh...
Good!
The council has banished you
to exile on a desert asteroid.
So, relax... enjoy the trip
and don't get any ideas.
These guns are locked
onto your genetic signature.
They won't shoot anyone but you.
Ow! Why, you...!
May I remind the captain
that he is on duty.
Secure the cell!
Aye, Captain.
Captain on deck.
All ahead full.
Do... Does this, uh,
look infected to you?
Oh!
Quiet, you.
Gunfire in the cell bay!
Open a channel.
He's loose on Deck C!
Red alert.
Seal off the deck!
Security,
converge on door seven!
Deadly force authorized.
Fire on sight!
There he is!
Security to Bridge.
It's in the ventilation system.
He's headed for the power...
grid.
What was that?
I don't think he's
on the ship anymore.
Confirmed.
He's taken a police cruiser.
Yeah... he took the red one.
Yee-haw!
Hmm?!
That's it!
We got it.
We got it!
Hyperdrive activated.
System charging.
He's engaged his H-drive!
Warning--

Get clear of that ship!

Do not engage hyper...
Get me Galactic Control.
Where is he?!
He's still in hyperspace.
Where will he exit?
Calculating now--
quadrant section - -
area .
A planet called... Ee-arth.
I want an expert on this planet
in here now!
What is that?
Water. Most of the planet
is covered in it.
He won't survive in water.
His molecular density
is too great.
No...
Of course.
How much time do we have?
We have projected his landing
at three hours, minutes.
Oh, we have to gas the planet.
Hold it!
Hold everything!
Earth is a protected
wildlife preserve.
Yeah. We've been using it
to rebuild
the mosquito population
which, need I remind you,
is an endangered species!
Am I to assume
you are the expert?
Oh, I don't know about expert.
Agent Pleakley at your service.
Can we not simply
destroy the island?
No! Crazyhead!
The mosquito's food of choice,
primitive humanoid life forms
have colonies
all over that planet.
Are they intelligent?
No, but they're very delicate.
In fact, every time an asteroid
strikes their planet
they have to begin life
all over.
It's fascinating, isn't it?
With this,
I've been able to study...
What if our military forces
just landed there?
Well, that'd be a bad idea!
These are extremely
simple creatures, miss.
Landing there would create mass
mayhem and planet-wide panic!
A quiet capture would require
an understanding of - -
that we do not possess!
Who, then, Mr. Pleakley, would
you send for his extraction?
Does he have a brother?
Close grandmother, perhaps?
Friendly cousin?
Neighbor with a beard?
He got away?
I'm sure this comes
as no surprise to you.
I designed this creature
for to be unstoppable.
Which is precisely why you
must now bring him back.
What? Me?
And to reward you
we are willing to trade
your freedom for his capture.
- - will not come easily.
Maybe direct hit
from plasma cannon
might stun him long enough to...
Plasma cannon granted.
Do we have a bargain, Dr. Jumba?
B-B-But it's a delicate planet!
Who's going to control him?
You will.
Very good, Your Highness.
I... I didn't quite...
Uh, you're notjoking!
So, tell me,
my little one-eyed one
on what poor, pitiful,
defenseless planet
has my monstrosity
been unleashed?

Lilo, why are you all wet?
It's sandwich day.
Every Thursday,
I take Pudge the fish
a peanut butter sandwich.
Pudge is a fish?
And today we were out
of peanut butter!
So I asked my sister
what to give him
and she said a tuna sandwich.
I can't give Pudge tuna!
Do you know what tuna is?
Fish?
It's fish!
If I gave Pudge tuna,
I'd be an abomination!
I'm late because
I had to go to the store
and get peanut butter
'cause all we have
is-is stinkin' tuna!
Lilo, Lilo, why is
this so important?
Pudge controls the weather.
You're crazy.
Please! Please!
Everybody calm down!
Girls...
Shh.
Lilo...
I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
I won't do it again!
Maybe we should call
your sister.
No! I'll be good!
I want to dance.
I practiced.
I just want to dance.
I practiced.
Ooh, she bit me.
Eww!
I called your sister.
She said to wait for her
here on the porch.
We'll try again on Sunday.
Does this look infected
to you?
Yeah.
You better not have rabies.
If you have rabies
the dogcatcher is
going to have to cut...
Are you going to play dolls?
You don't have a doll.
This is Scrump.
I made her,
but her head is too big.
So I pretend a bug laid eggs
in her ears, and she's upset
because she only has
a few more days to...
Lilo!
Lilo?
Lilo?
Oh, no.
You better be home.
Hey! Watch where you're going!
Stupidhead!
I found a new place to dwell...
Oh, Lilo!
Lilo! Open the door, Lilo!
Go away.
...You make me so lonely,
baby...
Lilo?
We don't have time for this.
...I get so lonely...
Leave me alone to die.
Come on, Lilo
that social worker's going
to be here any minute!
...You still can find
some room
For brokenhearted lovers
to cry away their gloom
Don't make me so lonely, baby
Don't make me so lonely
I get so lonely I could die...
The bellhop's tears
keep flowin'...
You are so finished
when I get in there!
Well, they been so long
on Lonely Street
They ain't ever
gonna look back...
Oh, I'm going to stuff you
in the blender
push puree,
then bake you into a pie
and feed it
to the social worker!
And when he says,
Mmm, this is great.
What's your secret?
I'm going to say...
Love... and nurturing.
Hi. Uh...
You must be the, uh...
The stupidhead.
Oh! Oh...
Oh, you know,
I'm really sorry about that

Yes. I'm Nani.

Uh... I thought we could
sit out here and talk.
I don't think so.
Right. Uh...
...It's always crowded...
This way.
...You still can find some room
For brokenhearted lovers
to cry away their gloom
You make me so lonely, baby...
Uh... wait here.
Hey!
So...
lemonade?
Do you often
leave your sister home alone?
No. Never.
Well, except forjust now.
Uh, I had to run
to the store to get some...
Oh!
You left the stove on
while you were out?
Low heat!
Just a simmer.
Mmm!
It's coming along great.
I found that this morning.
Lilo! There you are.
Honeyface...
this is Mr. Bubbles.
Nice to meet you.
Your knuckles say Cobra.
Cobra Bubbles.
You don't look like
a social worker.
I'm a special classification.
Did you ever kill anyone?
We're getting off the subject.
Let's talk about you.
Are you happy?
I'm adjusted.
I eat four food groups
and look both ways
before crossing the street
and take long naps,
and get disciplined.
Disciplined?
Yeah.
She disciplines me real good.
Sometimes five times a day.
-With bricks.
-No...
Bricks?
Uh-huh, in a pillowcase.
Okay! That's enough sugar
for you.
Why don't you run along,
you little cutie.
The other social workers
just thought she was a scream.
Thirsty?
Let me illuminate to you
the precarious situation
in which you have
found yourself.
I am the one they call
when things go wrong
and things have
indeed gone wrong.
My friends need to be punished.
Call me next time
you're left here alone.
Yep.
In case you're wondering,
this did not go well.
You have three days
to change my mind.
-Blah.
-Eww!
Lilo!
Why didn't you wait
at the school?
You were supposed
to wait there!
Lilo!
Do you not understand?
Do you want to be taken away?
Answer me!
No!
No, you don't understand?
No!
No, what?
No!
You're such a pain!
So why don't you sell me
and buy a rabbit instead?!
At least a rabbit would behave
better than you!
Go ahead!
Then you'll be happy
because it'll be smarter
than me, too!
And quieter!
You'll like it,
'cause it's stinky, like you!
Go to your room!
I'm already in my room!
Hey.
I brought you some pizza,
in case you were hungry.
We're a broken family,
aren't we?
No.
Maybe, a little.
Maybe a lot.
I shouldn't have yelled at you.
We're sisters. It's ourjob.
Yeah, well, from now on...
I like you better as a sister
than a mom.
Yeah?
And you like me better
as a sister
than a rabbit, right?
Oh...
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Yes.
Yes, I do.
I hit Mertle Edmonds today.
You hit her?
Before I bit her.
You bit her.
Lilo, you shouldn't...
People treat me different.
They just don't know
what to say.
I'll tell you what.
If you promise
not to fight anymore
I promise not to yell at you,
except on special occasions.
Tuesdays and bank
holidays would be good.
Yeah? Would that be good?
Oh! My camera's full again.
Aren't they beautiful?
A falling star!
I call it! Get out! Get out!
I have to make a wish!
Can't you go any faster?
Oh, no!
Gravity is increasing on me.
No, it's not!
It is, too, Lilo.
The same thing
happened yesterday.
You rotten sister!
Your butt is crushing me!
Why do you act so weird?!
It's me again.
I need someone
to be my friend...
someone who won't run away.
Maybe send me an angel...
the nicest angel you have.
What we when hit?
There it is.
It stay jammed under the fender.
We better call somebody.
We're looking for something
that can defend itself...
something that won't die...
something sturdy, you know?
Like a lobster.
Lilo, you lolo.
Do we have a lobster door?
No. We have a dog door.
We are getting a dog.
So nice
to see your pretty face again!
Jumba?
We need your name and address
at the bottom of the form...
The kennel's back this way.
Go. Pick someone out.
Hello?
Hello?!
Are there any aminals in here?
Hello!
Hi.
Hoh... ha...
Hi...
Wow!
Oh, yes. Mm-hmm.
All of our dogs are adoptable.
Except that one!
What is that thing?!
A dog, I think.
But it was dead this morning.
It was dead this morning?!
Well, we thought it was dead.
It was hit by a truck.
I like him!
Come here, boy.
Oh! Aah!
Wouldn't you like
a different dog?
We have better dogs, dear.
Not better than him.
He can talk! Say hello.
He... Hel...
Dogs can't talk, dear.
He did.
Does it have to be this dog?
Yes, he's good.
I can tell.
You'll have to think of a name
for him.
His name is... Stitch.
Now, that's not a real name...
Hmm. Uh-uh, uh-uh-uh.
...in Iceland...
but here, it's a good name.
Stitch it is.
And there's
a two dollar license fee.
I want to buy him!
Can I borrow two dollars?
He's all yours.
You're all mine.
Well, what's he doing?
Shh! Keep quiet.
He's listening for us.
How good is his hearing?
I mean, can he...
Why don't you run?
Coming! I'm coming!
Stop!
I have just determined
this situation
to be far too hazardous!
Don't worry,
I won't hit her.
No! That girl is a part
of the mosquito food chain.
Here! Educate yourself.
Using a little girl
for a shield.
This is low, even for you!
Whoo-hoo!
Bah!
Tear him apart
with all both my bare hands!
Have you lost your mind?!
What is it, Stitch?
We cannot be seen!
Bad dog, barking at nothing!
You can't shoot,
and you can't be seen.
Look at you!
You look like a monster.
We have to blend in.
Okay, I got to get to work.
Stick around town and stay
out of the roads, okay?
I'll meet you at : .
Hmm?
Oh!
Ah!
Okay, I guess
we should be going.
What about Stitch?
My friends!
What do you want?
I'm sorry I bit you
and pulled your hair
and punched you in the face.
Apology not accepted.
Now get out of my way
before I run you over.
I got a new dog.
His name is Stitch.
That is the ugliest thing
I have ever saw.
-Yeah.
-Yeah.
Eww! Get it away from me!
I'm gonna get a disease!
Somebody do something!
Oh, great! He's loose.
His destructive programming
is taking effect.
He will be irresistibly
drawn to large cities
where he will back up sewers
reverse street signs and
steal everyone's left shoe.
It's nice to live on an island
with no large cities.
Are you okay?
Doo-doo... Doo-doo...
You can shake an apple
off an apple tree
Shake-a, shake-a, sugar,
but you'll never shake me

-Uh-uh-uh
-Doo-doo-doo
Yes, siree, uh-huh
Doo-doo-doo,
Doo-doo-doo

Hide in the kitchen
Hide in the hall
Ain't gonna do you no good

'Cause once I catch ya

A team o' wild horses

When you're ready to give up
just let us know, heh?
Whee!
...Uh-uh-uh...
Yeah!
This is you.
This is your badness level.
It's unusually high
for someone your size.
We have to fix that.
Ay-yi-yi, Lilo!
Your dog cannot sit
at the table.
Stitch is troubled.
He needs desserts.
Oh, you didn't even eat
your sweet potato.
I thought you liked them.
Desserts!
David!
I got a new dog.
Oh! You sure it's a dog?
Uh-huh.
He used to be a collie
before he got ran over.
Yum!
Hey...
Blah!
Eww!
Howzit, Nani?
Did you catch fire again?
Nah, just the stage.
Listen, I was wondering
if you're not
doing anything this...
David, I told you, I can't. I...
I got a lot to deal with
right now.
I know. I just figured
you might need some time...
You smell like a lawn mower.
Look, I got to go.
The kid at table three's
throwing poi again.
Maybe some other time, okay?
Don't worry.
She likes your butt
and fancy hair.
I know. I read her diary.
She thinks it's fancy?
Blech!
Oh! Mmm!
Aha! Look what I find!
Get restraints!
Right.
Ow! Take that! Hurry!
Uh, hold still just a...
Aah!
Hey, Nani!
Is that your dog?
Uh...
All is well.
Please, go about your business.
I'm okay.
Oh, your head looks swollen.
Actually, she's just ugly.
Darling...
He's joking.
Ugly-- look at me...
Uh, this is not working out.
Uh, b-but...
Mm-mm.
Yeah?
Well, who wants to work
at this stupid...
fakey luau anyway.
Come on, Lilo.
Did you lose yourjob
because of Stitch and me?
Nah. The manager's a vampire
and he wanted me to join
his legion of the undead.
I knew it.
This is a great home.
You'll like it a lot.
See?
Uh, Lilo...
Comfy.
-Hey!
-Hey!
What is the matter with you?
Be careful of the little angel!
It's not an angel, Lilo.
I don't even think it's a dog.
We just have to take him back.
He's just cranky
because it's his bedtime.
He's creepy, Lilo.
I won't sleep
while he's loose in the house.
You're loose in the house
all the time
and I sleep just fine!
Hey, what are you doing?
Stop that, Stitch!
Hey!
Look at him, Lilo.
He's obviously mutated
from something else.
We have to take him back.
He was an orphan
and we adopted him!
What about O'hana?
He hasn't been here that long.
Neither have I.
Dad said O'hana means family.
Huh?
O'hana means family.
Family means...
...nobody gets left behind.
Or...?
Or forgotten.
I know. I know.
I hate it
when you use O'hana against me.
Mmm.
Don't worry, you can sleep
right next to me.
Look how curious the puppy is.
This is my room,
and this is your bed.
This is your dolly and bottle.
See? Doesn't spill.
I filled it with coffee.
Good puppy. Now get into bed.
Hey!
That's mine!
Down!
Mmm!
Be careful of that!
You don't touch this!
Don't ever touch it!
No! Don't pull on her head!
She's recovering from surgery.
No! That's from my blue period.
Mmm...
There.
You know, you wreck
everything you touch.
Why not try and make something
for a change?
Ah!
Wow. San Francisco.
Save me!
Eek!
No more caffeine for you.
This little girl is wasting
her time.
- - cannot be taught to ignore
its destructive programming.
Ooh!
Push that over.
What are you doing?
Nothing!
Uh, say, I want to try it on.
No!
Share! Let me try it!
Hey! Ow! You're justjealous
'cause I'm pretty!
Don't move.
A mosquito has chosen me
as her perch.
She's so beautiful.
Look, another one.
And another one!
Why, it's a whole flock.
And they like me!
They're nuzzling my flesh
with their noses.
Now they're, um, they're....
I think it might be a koala.
An evil koala.
I can't even pet it.
It keeps staring at me,
like it's going to eat me.
Hello?
Nani?
Hello?
Are you there?
Now, this is interesting.
What?
- - was designed
to be a monster
but now he has nothing
to destroy.
You see, I never gave him
a greater purpose.
What must it be like
to have nothing...
not even memories to visit
in the middle of the night?
Nah!
Hmm.
Hmm...
That's the Ugly Duckling.
See? He's sad
because he's all alone
and nobody wants him
but on this page,
his family hears him crying
and they find him.
Then the Ugly Duckling is happy
because he knows
where he belongs.
Hmm...
Want to listen to the King?
You look like an Elvis fan.
Nani.
Nani!
Uh... yeah?
Look.
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds...
...cious minds...
...can build our dreams...
...On suspicious minds...
Heard you lost yourjob.
Well, uh, actually,
I just quit thatjob
because, you know,
the hours are just not conducive
to the challenges
of raising a child...
Hey!
I am so sorry about that.
What is that thing?
That's my puppy.
Really?
Thus far, you have been adrift
in the sheltered harbor
of my patience
but I cannot ignore
you beingjobless.
Do I make myself clear?
Perfectly.
And next time I see this dog
I expect it to be
a model citizen... capisce?
Uh... yes?
New job.
Model citizen.
Good day.
You look like an angel...
Mrs. Hasagawa?
I'm here to answer
your newspaper ad.
Elvis Presley was
a model citizen.
...Walk like an angel...
I've compiled a list
of his traits
for you to practice.
Number one is dancing.
I can't talk now, dear.
I'm waiting for someone
to answer my ad.
That's why I'm here.
Hands on your hips.
Now follow my lead.
Ooh-hoo.
...You fooled me
with your kisses...
Ah! That's my want ad.
I know!
...Heaven knows
how you lied to me
You're not the way...
Whoa, whoa!
Why is everything so dark?
I am all about coffee.
Let's move on to step two.
...Walk like an angel...
Elvis played guitar. Here.
...Talk like an angel...
Hold it like this,
and put your fingers here.
See? Now you try.
...and I make great cappuccinos
and lattes with...
I wish I could, Nani,
but I just hired Teddy
and with tourist season
ending...
Concierge-er-ing is my life.
...You look like an angel...
I just love to answer phones...
This is the face of romance.
...Walk like an angel...
She looks like
she could use some lovin'.
...Talk like an angel,
but I got wise...
Oh, we might have something.
Good. Now kiss her.
...The devil in disguise...
I'm sure Elvis had
his bad days, too.
I'm all about saving people?
...I thought
that I was in heaven...
Actually, I do think
we have an opening.
Really?
Okay, this is it.
...But I was sure surprised...
Time to bring it all together.
Oh, that'd be so great!
You have no idea
how badly I need this job.
...The devil in your eyes
You're the devil in disguise...
It's all you!
Knock 'em dead!
...The devil in disguise
You're the devil in disguise...
Don't crowd him!
...Oh, yes, you are
The devil in disguise...
The devil in disguise,
oh, yes...
Hey, knock it off!
Hey, Lilo!
Howzit... Nani?
We've been having a bad day.
Hmm...
Hey, I might not be a doctor
but I know that there's
no better cure for a sour face
than a couple of boards
and some choice waves.
What you think?
I think that's a great idea.

Lilo!
What happened?
Oh... some lolo must have
stuffed us in the barrel.
Where's Stitch?
Get off of her!
What happened?
Stitch dragged her down.
We lost Stitch!
Lilo? Lilo, look at me.
Look at me, baby.
Are you hurt?
No.
He's unconscious,
but I think he's alive.
David, take Lilo.
This isn't what it looks like.
We were...
It-It's just that...
I know you're trying, Nani
but you need to think
about what's best for Lilo...
even if it removes you
from the picture.
I'll be back tomorrow morning
for Lilo.
I'm sorry.
Nani? Is there something
I can do?
No, David.
Uh, I need
to take Lilo home now.
We have a lot to talk about,
Lilo.
Thanks.
You know, I really believed
they had a chance.
Then you came along.
Lilo, honey...
we have to, uh...
Don't worry.
You're nice, and someone
will give you a job.
I would.
Come here.
Aloha Oe, Aloha Oe
E ke onaona noho i ka lipo
One fond embrace, a ho'i a'e au
Until we meet again.
That's us before...
It was rainy,
and they went for a drive.
What happened to yours?
I hear you cry at night.
Do you dream about them?
I know that's
why you wreck things
and push me.
Our family's little now
and we don't have many toys
but if you want,
you could be part of it.
You could be our baby
and we'd raise you to be good.
O'hana means family.
Family means nobody gets
left behind
but if you want to leave,
you can.
I'll remember you, though.
I remember everyone that leaves.
L... L...
Lost.
I'm lost.
Help!
I don't like the ocean!
Oh, look,
a friendly little dolphin.
They helped sailors
in the war...
It's a shark!
It's a shark,
and it ain't friendly!
It looks like a dolphin.
Tricky fish! Tricky fish!
Oh, octopus, come and help me?
An octo... octopus is worse
than a shark!
I hate this planet!
Oh...
little monster!
Uh, Agent Pleakley here.
I have lost patience
with you both.
Have you captured - - or not?
Um...
Uh-uh...
Consider yourselves fired
and prisonbound.
Your incompetence is nothing
short of unspeakable!
But, uh... mm...
We're fired!
Now we do it my way!
Your way?
Oh... uh, wait!
It seems I have overestimated
Jumber and Blinkley.
Uh, Jumba and Pleakley.
Whatever. The mission
is in jeopardy.
This could be your chance to
redeem yourself, Captain Gantu.
How soon will you be prepared
to leave?
Immediately.
Don't run.
Don't make me shoot you.
You were expensive.
Yes. Yes, that's it.
Come quietly.
Mm... waiting.
For what?
Family.
Ah!
You don't have one.
I made you.
Oh... maybe I could...
You're built to destroy.
You can never belong.
Now come quietly
and we will take you apart.
No, no, no, no,
don't, don't run!
Don't run!
Lilo.
I didn't hear you get up.
Baby, what's wrong?
Stitch left.
Really?
It's good he's gone.
He didn't want to be here,
anyway.
We don't need him.
Lilo...
sometimes you try your hardest
but things don't work out
the way you want them to.
Sometimes things have to change
and maybe sometimes
they're for the better...
even if...
Nani!
David!
I think I found you a job.
You what?!
Old man Kukhkini's store,
but we got to hurry.
Oh, um, okay. Lilo?
Baby, this is really important.
I need you to stay here
for a few minutes.
I'm going to be right back.
Lock the door and don't
answer it for anyone, okay?
Things are finally
turning around.
Aw, David, I owe you one.
That's okay.
You can just date me,
and we'll call it even.
Come back here, you little...!
Stitch?
What is it?
Shh!
Oh, hiding
behind your little friend
won't work anymore.
Didn't I tell you?
We got fired this morning.
New rules.
Ha!
Ooh.
Oh, ooh! Ow! Ow! Ow!
You ain't nothin'
but a hound dog...
What are we going to do?
...Cryin' all the time...
Ooh! I love this song!
Pliers.
Screwdriver.
Check.
Come out, my friend
from whomever
you're hiding behind.
...Well, you ain't never
caught a rabbit
And you ain't no friend
of mine...
What the...?
Ooh!
Come on!
What's the big deal?
I'll put you
back together again.
I'll make you taller
and not so fluffy!
I like fluffy!
No... No...
No!
Oh, leave my mother
out of this!
You could do with a makeover.
I tried
to give you my good looks
but let's face it,
something went wrong.
No!
Quick! Follow me!
If we make it to...
You're alive!
They're all over the place!
Running away? Here...
let me stop you.
You always get
in the way!
Where's the girl?
What have you done
to the girl?
Hello? Cobra Bubbles?
Aliens are attacking my house.
No, no, no!
No aliens!
Blue punch buggy!
No punch back.
They want my dog!
There's no need
to alert the authorities.
Everything's under control.
Lilo, who was that?
Oh, good,
my dog found the chainsaw.
Lilo! Don't hang...!
Ha!
You shouldn't play with guns.
Oh, okay.
Thank you.
Oh, I just remembered.
It's your birthday!
Happy birthday!
Merry Christmas!
It's not Christmas.
Happy Hanukkah!
We're leaving Stitch?
Trust me.
This is not going to end well.
-One potato.
-Two potato.
-Three potato.
-Four.
-Five potato.
-Six potato.
Seven potato, more.
My... mother... told... me...
you... are... it.
Oh, I win!
Thanks. Mahalo plenty.
You won't be disappointed.
I'll show up early to help
with the morning deliver...
Oh, don't turn left.
No.
One of them had a giant eye
in the middle of his face.
Oh, Lilo!
Please don't do this.
You know I have no choice.
No! You're not taking her!
I'm the only one
who understands her!
You take that away,
she won't stand a chance!
You're making this harder
than it needs to be.
But you don't know
what you're doing! She needs me!
Is this what she needs?!
It seems clear to me
that you need her
a lot more than she needs you.
Lilo! Lilo!
-Lilo!
-Lilo!
Lilo!
-Lilo!
-Lilo!
You ruined everything.
You're one of them?
Ooh!
Get out of here, Stitch.
Surprise!
And here I thought
you'd be difficult to catch.
Ho-ho-ho. Silly me.
Lilo?
Lilo!
There you go,
all buckled up for the trip.
And look-- I even caught you
a little snack.
No! Stop!
Lilo.
Aah!
Okay, talk.
I know you had something
to do with this.
Now where is Lilo?
Talk! I know you can.
Okay, okay.
Where's Lilo?
Lilo...
Now all your washing is up!
You're under arrest!
Read him his rights.
Listen carefully.
Hello? Galactic Command?
Experiment 626 is in custody.
We'll wait right here.
Huh?
Don't interact with her.
Where's Lilo?
Who?
What?!
Lilo... my sister.
Uh, sorry, we do not know
anyone by this, uh...
Lilo! She's a little girl--
this big!
She has black hair
and brown eyes
and she hangs around
with that thing!
Uh...
We know her.
Bring her back.
Oh, we can't do that. Uh-uh.
That would be a misuse
of Galactic resources.
See, problem is...
we're just here for him.
So she's gone?
Look at the bright side.
You won't have to yell
at anyone anymore.
Come.
O'hana.
Huh?
Hey! Get away from her.
No! What did you say?
O'hana means family.
Family means...
...nobody gets left behind.
Or forgotten.
Yeah.
Hey...
What?!
After all you put me through
you expect me to help you
just like that?!
Just like that?!
Ih.
Fine.
Fine?
You're doing what he says?
Uh, he's very persuasive.
Persuasive?!
What exactly are we doing?
Rescue.
We're going to get Lilo?
Ih.
Oh, good! I was hoping
to add theft, endangerment
and insanity to my list
of things I did today.
You, too?
Oh! Yeah, yeah, yeah!
What? Did you think
we walked here?
This is Gantu, requesting
hyperspace clearance.
Stand by for clearance.
Clearance is granted
on vector C- .
Connect me
to the Grand Councilwoman.
Gantu, what's going on?
I thought you'd like to know
that the little abomination
is... is...
Yes, Captain?
I'll call you back.
How did you get out of there?
So what exactly are we doing?
Don't worry,
is all part of plan.
We are professionals.
Hey! Get that out of your mouth!
Hold on!
Okay, is show time!
This is it!
Go! Go! Go!
Little savage!
Get off my ship!
Stitch!
Computer,
locate Experiment 626.
626 located.
We finish this now.
Stitch is unconscious.
What do we do now?
We stay close.
Hope for a miracle.
That's all we can do.
No!
Don't leave me, okay?
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Target - - is in motion.
Speed is .
Impossible!
Stitch!
Hmm?
Abomination.
Stupidhead.
Yee-haw!
Aloha!
You're vile! You're foul!
You're flawed!
Also cute and fluffy!
You came back.
Nobody gets left behind.
Lilo!
Good dog.
Auwe!
David!
Hey, Lilo.
Can you give us a ride
to shore?
Uh...
Sure!
But I have to make two trips.
So you're from outer space, huh?
I heard the surfing's choice.
We have - - .
Take him to my ship.
Leave him alone.
Hold on.
Grand Councilwoman,
let me explain.
Silence!
I am retiring you,
Captain Gantu.
Actually, credit for the capture
goes to...
Goes to me.
You'll be lucky if you end up
on a Fluff Trog farm
after we sort this thing out.
Uh...
I think I should...
You!
You're the cause of all this!
If it wasn't
for your Experiment 626
none of this...
Stitch.
What?
My name Stitch.
Stitch, then.
If it wasn't for Stitch....
Does Stitch have to go
in the ship?
Yes.
Can Stitch say good-bye?
Yes.
Thank you.
Who are you?
This is my family.
I found it all on my own.
It's little and broken...
but still good.
Yeah. Still good.
Does he really have to go?
You know as well as I
that our laws are absolute.
I cannot change
what the Council has decided.
Lilo, didn't you buy
that thing at the shelter?
Hey!
Three days ago,
I bought Stitch at the shelter.
I paid two dollars for him.
See this stamp? I own him.
If you take him,
you're stealing.
Aliens are all about rules.
You look familiar.
CIA. Roswell. .
Ah, yes. You had hair then.
Take note of this.
This creature has been sentenced
to life in exile
a sentence that shall be
henceforth served out here...
on Earth...
and as caretaker
of the alien life-form, Stitch
this family is now
under the official protection
of the United Galactic
Federation.
We'll be checking in
now and then.
I was afraid
you were going to say that.
This won't be easy to explain
back at headquarters.
I know what you mean.
Don't let those two
get on my ship.
CIA?
Former.
Saved the planet once.
Convinced an alien race
that mosquitoes
were an endangered species.
Now, about your house...
Wait.
Lord Almighty,
I feel my temperature rising
Ooh
Higher and higher
It's burning through to my soul
Baby, baby, baby
You're gonna set me on fire
Yeah
My brain is flaming
I don't know which way to go
Yeah
'Cause your kisses
lift me higher
Like the sweet song of a choir
You light my morning sky
With burning love
Mmm... ooh, ooh, ooh
I feel my temperature rising
Mmm
Help me, I'm flaming
I must be a hundred and nine
Burning, burning, burning
And nothing can cool me
Mmm
I just might turn into smoke
But I feel fine, yeah
'Cause your kisses

Like a sweet song of a choir
And you light my morning sky
With burning love
Burning love
Mmm
Burning love
It's coming closer
The flames are
now licking my body
Won't you help me?
I feel like I'm slipping away
Oh, yeah
It's hard to breathe
And my chest is just a-heaving
Mmm, mmm
Lord have mercy,
it's burning a hole in me
Yeah
'Cause your kisses
lift me higher
Like the sweet song of a choir
You light my morning sky
With burning love
Burning love
Burning love!
Burning love
I'm just a hunk,
a hunk of burning love
I'm just a hunk, a hunk
of burning love
I'm just a hunk,
a hunk of burning love
I'm just a hunk, a hunk

I'm just a hunk, a hunk
of burning love
I'm just a hunk,

I'm just a hunk, a hunk
of burning love
I'm just a hunk,
a hunk of burning...
Love.
Do, do, do
I just can't help
falling in love with you
Wise men say
Only fools rush in
But I can't help
Falling in love with you
Shall I stay?
Would it be a sin?
If I can't help
Falling in love with you
Like a river flows to the sea
So it goes,
some things are meant to be
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand
Take my whole life too
For I can't help
Falling in love with you
Wise men say
Only fools rush in
But I can't, I can't help
Falling in love with you
Take my hand
Take my whole life too
But I can't help
Falling in love with you
Oh, I can't help
Falling in love
Falling in love with you
That's the way love goes
That's the way it goes
And my whole life, too
I just can't help
fallin' in love with you
That's the way love goes
I just can't help myself
So falling, baby, for you
Falling in love with you
That's the way love goes
That's the way it goes
'Cause I can't help
Falling in love with you
With you...
omg its so long!

Although this forum is meant for "dining out" questions, I'd like to ask this question here because of the regional classification of Detroit area, not found in the food and drink classification.
I'm asking about the meat itself, rather than the restaurant who serves it (although, feel free to let me know who makes 'em best, anyway)
Who makes the best natural casing dog?
A) Dearborn http://www.dearborn-sausage.com/catalog/
B) Koegel http://www.koegelmeats.com/

How can a person get a federal law on the books to protect the minature horses? The classification of minature horses fit within three categories: 1) exotic pets, 2) companion animal, and 3) livestock. Minature horses do a large variety of duties, such as leading the blind, assisting the deaf, search and rescue, entertain children, do tricks, they make excellent pets (and yes they are housebreakable), soothes peoples souls that are chaotic, assists disabled people, the both call 911 and answer the phone, they don't bark constantly like dogs, if treated right, they are very loving animals and they get along quite well with people, they are quite loyal to their owners, they can be used in place of vehicles to get things done, they live longer than dogs and many other things I can't put in this tiny little space.
I am referring to protecting them from places like the slaughterhouses. I spoke to the intaker to the Illinois plant and asked him if he would call me if they got any minis and he told me no. Places like the Guide Horse Foundation would love to have them. They don't have enough minis to go around and then this Illinois bozo wants to slaughter them.
