Merkel & Bibi



German chancellor Angela Merkel has a singular ability to have unphotogenic photos taken of her. Just search my blog and you'll find some. This one is no different:

Bibi Merkel Photo Makes Waves

A Hitler mustache... really? On a German chancellor?

Yes, It's Monday



Took a cat and a dog to the vet this morning and have been dragging my butt ever since.

Werewolf In Sochi



Olympic Athlete Spots Possible Wolf In Dorm

It's hard to tell from the brief video, but it looks like a scrawny wolf to me. Heck, it is Russia after all. I have a female German Shepherd who looks bigger than that "wolf"...

Good!



Muslims 'Warned In Fatwa Not To Live On Mars'

OK, we don't want you there anyway.

Remember the old joke... why aren't there any moslems in Star Trek?

...'cause it takes place in the future.

Be Careful! Giant Pacific Octopi might want to steal your camera equipment.

They're really smart...

Camera equipment is really expensive.

Not So Sunny News



This was mindboggling to me:

One In Four Americans 'Do Not Know The Earth Circles The Sun'

I grant that some of these questions may have been theoretical and I can see some equivocation here and there, but IT IS A FACT that the earth orbits the sun and everyone on this planet should know that.

This is just unbelievable.

Girafficide



Danish Zookeepers Kill Baby Giraffe Then Fed Him To The Lions

I've taken enough biology classes to understand the need for culling a herd, preventing genetic inbreeding, and all the excuses given by the Copenhagen Zoo.

What I don't understand is the dismemberment of a giraffe IN FRONT OF A CROWD INCLUDING MANY CHILDREN and then feeding the parts to the lions.

What were they thinking?

Realistic?



Realistic Statue Of Man In His Underwear At Wellesley College Sparks Controversy

This statue is threatening the girls of Wellesley?

Really?

We're not all married to John Stamos.

You girls need to grow up and stop being such drama queens.

Super Bomb



When bad things happen, my first inclination is to think they happened in Florida. Thankfully, this did not...

This is one on you, Jersey.

Shuttle Columbia



Eleven years ago today, my husband and I were watching the Columbia's approach to Earth and I ran outside to wait for the sonic boom as it passed over Florida. I waited and waited. After a while, I realized something was wrong. Finally I ran inside and the look on my husband's face said it all.
