Fans of therapy dogs

#1 Post by Ritterskoop » Fri Oct 03, 2008 11:21 pm

I have not read this yet but it's on the Local front in the morning.

For whenever they remove it from the online front, here's the story link itself, I hope:

My understanding is they make you register but it is relatively benign, ad-wise. The ads they email, I mean. The site has the requisite number of pop-ups, because we need a paycheck.

Thanks for the link, Skoop. Stories like that always make me tear up.

In a good way.

Do I need therapy?
I believe in the usefulness of useless information.

They don't provide much therapy for me!
Squirrels are the architects of forests, the planters of trees, nature's own acrobats and show a zest for life that can inspire us. Every day should be National Squirrel Appreciation Day!

Many of these (squirrel) migrations were probably caused by food shortages as well as habitat overcrowding. We solved that for them. We not only reduced their habitat, we reduced the whole species by about 90%. The least we can do now is share a little birdseed with them.

And you do need some anger management counseling.

I think evil squirrel would benefit from this type therapy -someone sign him up!
