Yeah, can't all the dog owners just bust open their Buds on a bench in the dog run? Washington Square isn't that far away. :twisted:

And don't worry, caaahyoko. Now that I have my own mom back on her leash, I'll back off the other dogs.

I am hoping that my rational comments will close this thread.


Here is my stance of authority.. I am 58 years old.. old enough to be the mom of almost anyone on this forum and I am a hip mom..ask any one of my 3 PS children (born and bred and one of them even went to John Jay.. G-d help him.. he became a school teacher for the Board of Ed. after he realized that if he survived that HS he could survive anything that would give him a 180 day work year.... I digress) So I have raised kids in Ps and roll my grand kids through the hood (3 of them at this point) and I save my drinking for when I am kidless. Now I do visit the wine store on 5th Ave with one of the grands once a week but my drinking is saved for when I return the kids to their parents. Advice to moms.. Wait till your kid is asleep to get a baby sitter if you must plant your keester at the Gate or any other of the PS bars that have replaced real service stores in the neighborhood...Wait till you are my age to over-endulge and spend long evenings hanging out with your dogs at the superb bars of PS (annoying all those moms of the future generation) . You are your kids prime care takers and source oF moral and ethical boundaries.. stay sober. and suffer like I did till your job is done.



On to the pooch part. .. I have lived in the PS so long that I have not only raised 3 humans here but have been possessed (and I really mean possessed) by four dogs in this time frame. One lived till she was 16, one 13 and the 2 Malts that I have now are 7 and 8 years old. It is only the 2 Malts that go out to Bars! I find now I have the time to train these guys really well.. far better than the 3 kids. If they go to a bar they know how to sit in a lap barkless. If the bar has live music they know how to sit quietly and clap at the end of a tune... (o.k. that LAST PART was a little exageration) and unlike my kids, these dogs never leak in public from either end!.. I bath them only once a week (which is a lot for a dog ) but try that with you little kid whose prime mission is to leak from the bottom end and get the end where hands are attached as dirty as possible to collect germs. These germs get in their mouths and cause illnesses that are invariabley passed on to their brothers and sisters. Tell the truth. Who did convince you that one was not enough? Was multiple procreation an idea you picked up at your ivy league college? Admitted it... those sick kids have kept you housebound for weeks this winter and you can't wait to get out and have a drink at one of those bars that proliferate on every PS street. Well you can't do it!! No bar hopping till the kids get raised! But see the bright side.. You can get two toy breed dogs (to replace your kids when they grow up) take them along to the PS Bars and annoy all those people almost as much with the dogs as they would be annoyed if you shlepped your kids along!!

Great idea, right?

But downside.... you will probably have to be my age (or older) to be kidless and possessed by grandkids and dogs only because you waited so long to have your kids in the first place!

Can we close this thread now or do we have to wait for someone to come along who is more honest, annoying and obnoxious as I have been and can't even write as well?????!!!

Good answer!
