Friendship, or civility is a domestic argument.

Civility is also friendliness; the choice of the goat and the cow part of the very friendly barnyard. Horses are not so predictable. Dogs are usually territorial, and cats? well just cats. I didn't have any more room in the stamp anyway.

Do, please, allow me to make a short intervention into this Incredibly exciting and absorbing ...er,...discussion:

"Don't forget the CAP".

Good night. Good bye. Good luck (and, Please, spare us from this WALOPAMS*)

But keep on Arty Stamping, Ian C

Thank you

(WALOPAMS = What A Lot Of Pretentious And Meaningless S**t)

I have the domestic version--all 10,000 years? of trusting eyes and hairy mouth. There's a corral, or fence line, and of course the halter: wild cattle are an aggressive, spooky bunch. Wild goats are just plain flighty. There's a feral goat-dog down in Australia: The Pooncarie Field Day. The dogs usually win. Humans don't follow the fence lines that well.

Friendship is an open contract and therein lies much difference of option, expectation and enmity. Sometimes there is a conversion to a fixed contract; sometimes there is just encroachment unto the Unfriending button. Where is the Juste-Milieu? The Golden Mean of Aristotle?
