Leet? Only place I know that term from is in the ancient right of the lord a fief to hold "courts baron, courts leet, and view of frankpledge." :laugh:

True, but in the case of LEET I think Wiki has reliable information.

Oh yes! So would I. I have to be contented with paying my dues to the local animal welfare society and the pet haven they run, as often as I can afford to. There is so much cruelty towards animals, but luckily they've got some champions who do a lot of good work to help them and to find them good homes too.
A big Yay! to you, for giving a Rescue dog a good home. :-* That's great! From the tiny picture Cody looks sweet and good-natured. Him being a Valentines day dog is perfect! I'm very, very fond of Goldens.

That one certainly had the ring of reliability.

Or, for that matter, that other annoyance of modern travel (not an issue on planes, I guess)--someone speaking LOUDLY on a cell phone. >:( :P ;D :laugh:

OMG! On my last trip back from NYC on Amtrak there was a guy yacking real loud on his Cell phone for over an hour. It was late and everyone else on the train was tired and pin drop quiet. When we pulled into New Haven to switch engines, he stepped outside to get a soda from a vending machine on the platform.
I turned to the rest of the passengers and said :"How the hell long can he go before his battery dies?" The rest of the passengers burst out laughing!
Another passenger suggested we bribe a Porter to lock the doors to the rail car.
It never fails to amaze me that some people are so oblivious to the fact they are being rude.
