The Tag uses a 36kvph movement. It has a normal back/forth escapement that vibrates 10 times a second. The Spring Drive doesn't have a back/forth escapement. It rotates constantly in one direction and is corrected 10 times a sec. Big difference.
I ordered my new camera last night (thanks anyone that bought stuff from me) so I should be taking new wristies soon, but in the mean time, let's recycle some pics.
Today, my arm felt too light, so I decided to add some ballast.
In a country with no animal cruelty laws and stray dogs everywhere, rescuing the dog would be bad for you. You're stuck with a stray dog and a criminal record. You're better off quietly taking in a stray if you were that offended.
I know that, but you also said the media picked up on it at the time.
You've been a calm voice throughout this, posting good stuff without hysteria, but you're not one of the ones I'm talking about. Stop reading my comments about fevered hysteria and assuming I mean you.
Pigs are tattooed for identification as part of the normal farming procedure. They are also used by tattoo artists to learn the trade as pig flesh is very similar to human flesh (same subcutaneous fat layer).
Nothing new here. What about branding cattle and horses? That's normal practice too.
I never suggested you were borderline hysterical, but ...
"I would look to see the same done to him and see how he likes it."
"Someone should chain his @$$ up and let him die of starvation."
"How about a slow public hanging of this bastard [...] After I beat the living sh*t out of him."
The media didn't pick up on it immediately. It happened last year.
Who do you trust?
On one hand you've got the Humane Society who have contacts at the local animal welfare centres and on the other, you've got the media picking up the story over a month after it happened.
If you feel the need to be outraged, believe the version that allows you to get angry.
