Aww, Some Dogs Just Ain't Bright

Hyperbole and a Half came out with another great post - this time with a puppy in it! What could be better than comedy and a puppy? The answer is nothing. Unless you are Hitler, in which case suffering is your only joy. And also you are dead.

Oh, and yes, I should stop posting other things that people have made that are funny instead of making things of my own that are funny, but I'm about to go on vacation so screw it!

Good News for Texans!

Finally Texas' clean air regulatory agency is being held accountable for allowing its power companies to essentially pollute as much as they want with little to no consequences.

I hope that the EPA will really follow through on this and bring these companies up to code. It's not fair to the people of Texas to have to suffer through so much pollution at the same time as they're the ones building the fastest growing renewable-wind power in the country. That's a contradiction that's frankly too big for Texas.

Good News for Chickens!

Pretty soon, because of a new law in California, all eggs sold in CA must come from humanely treated chickens. Of course, humanely treated just means that they can stand up, flap their wings, and turn around, which to me doesn't seem like they have a whole lot of freedom, but that's definitely a lot better than what has been going on. Way to go CA!

Here's hoping they propose and pass a law that all chickens sold to be eaten in CA will also have to come from humane conditions, too!

Shout out to Liz for letting me know about this!

Breakation!

Hey Readers!

I'm going on a nice, long break+vacation=breakation for the next two weeks. The first week the boyfriend and I are going to South Carolina with his parents, where we will relax on a beach, go fishing, and presumably have a blast. During this time I will be on a strict internet hiatus, so don't expect any posts after tonight over the next ten days or so. When I come back I'll be posting about restaurant week and the joys of my vacation (just to make you all super jealous), so get excited about that. I know you all will miss me dearly, but no worries, I'll be back before you know it with more puppies, more stories, and more fun!

Hugs!

Goldendoodle Galore!



After seeing Jacob (the puppy one, not the werewolf one), I may have to reconsider and make a Goldendoodle as my first puppy choice...
