I have two gripes. Major issues that really irritate me these days.
1) Menu Foods. Ring a bell? They’re the F-ing company poisoning our beloved little pussNboots and fido-pets. Have you read their press release Dog Food Recall? http://www.menufoods.com/recall/Press_Recall_03162007.pdf
It really bites the big one. They call it a “precautionary” recall, even though 16 ( and they expect more) cats and dogs have died of kidney failure due to the RAT POISON found in their canned pet foods. In this Precautionary Recall, they mention that they pretty much decided to do the recall since their largest consumer (probably walmart) initiated their own recall of the Menu Foods products, AND furthermore put future orders from Menu Foods on hold. Bravo, Walmart - or whoever you are “largest consumer”!
I haven’t heard of any heartfelt apologies coming from the Menu Foods camp, have you? On the other hand, they seem rather cold, and reluctant to take responsibility. Well, duh. You ARE, Menu Foods, responsible for the suffering of AT LEAST 16 pets’s families. Have the decency to show some compassion. You suck and I ban you.

2) Sci-Fi. What’s up with no longer showing Ghost Hunters? I know they’re coming back, but I have had to suffer since…well, was it Halloween or thereabouts when their last new episode aired. They keep showing these rerun marathons, but it’s not the same. I’ve had to go through massive Jason and Grant withdrawals. Sci-Fi is really sucking, too. Wake up Sci-Fi, they’re the best thing going on your boring channel. AARghhh. AND Bring back DARK SHADOWS, it’s the least you can do.
Got to go. Thanks for listening to me rant.
Luv, Gina

BRAVO! well spoken
I for one, would like to know what they plan to do about the families (mine being one of those you mentioned) who have have pets die from this.
Last December my Skeezics died of kidney failure just 2 days after becoming sick. The vet did everything she could for him, but she said the toxins in his body were off the chart, and in spirt of emergancy procideres he still died. We miss him terribly, and we don’t even get so much as an appology from these murderers.
