got up at 5:30 and went to the lake with my dog to fish. Then I found out I drove an hour for no reason because no dogs are allowed on the lake. 30 bucks in gas and no fish. Not a fun saturday.

That stinks!!! I'd rather have a dog than some people that I've seen.

TUNNEL; That remark you made about rather having the company of a dog than some people that you've "seen." I sure hope you meant people that you " know" I myself "know" of some people that I might prefer the company of a dog over. But to prefer an animal over a human being that you don't know, only seen, is pretty cold.
Whatever happened to "judging people by the content of their character" rather than the outward appearance?
I would like to think that that kind of mentality hardly exist anymore. in some peoples minds they may still exist, but to make a remark like that on a forum, where, true, we can't all know who you are, but the words you choose, make you larger than life.
If it was a type-O or a slip of the tongue ... then this doesn't apply to you. But, if it wasn't please for the good of those on this forum that try to see the best in everyone ... keep those kind of remarks to yourself. It just didn't sound right!
Thank you!

I believe it was a joke.

Lighten up!! Don't try to read too much into what I said. Humor is a wonderful thing.

Hey guys, I'm glad that it's cleared up. I travel between 50-60 miles one-way when I come to Octoraro with my grandson and friends...and I like to feel comfortable in doing so. That comment, for the moment, made me feel uncomfortable about coming to that spot feeling that some people there may be outwardly prejudice. I'd like to feel like (God forbid) if I was in an unfortunate boating accident and needed help, that people wouldn't just turn their head after they've "seen" the color of my skin.
I'm truly sorry if my reply disturbed anyone.
God Bless!
