So this story was technically from yesterday, but a quote from it had my whole family (Historically Republicans) up in an uproar!

The quote:
"We hope and pray that this storm (Fay) will not cause any significant damage nor in fact do anything that would disrupt the lives, and particularly all of the many hundreds of thousands of visitors who visit here on a regular basis”

Wow John, Thanks for caring about the Millions of Floridians who have their lives destroyed by these storms every year...

Admittedly that was a dopey statement!

that really pisses me off. I'm looking at the lake behind our house which has now swallowed my orange trees, and is starting to come through my fence. It's also creeping up my driveway (water from the canal that is supposed to drain the lake.) The storm has sat in the same damn place overnight, not moving. She and John McCain both need to take their happy asses away from me. If this keeps up we're going to get water in our house.

The abandoned infant was found in a field with this dog and her newborn puppies.





A resident of a rural area outside La Plata called police late Wednesday night to say that he had heard the baby crying in a field behind his house.
The man went outside and found the infant lying beside the dog and its six newborn puppies, Daniel Salcedo, chief of police of the Province of Buenos Aires, told CNN.
The temperature was a chilly 37 degrees, Salcedo said.
The dog had apparently carried the baby some 50 meters from where his mother had abandoned him to where the puppies were huddled, police said.
"She took it like a puppy and rescued it," Salcedo said. "The doctors told us if she hadn't done this, he would have died."
"The dog is a hero to us."
Dr. Egidio Melia, director of the Melchor Romero Hospital in La Plata, told CNN that police showed up at the hospital at 11:30 p.m. Wednesday with the baby who doctors say was only a few hours old.
Though the infant had superficial scratches and bruises and was bleeding from his mouth, he was in good shape, Melia said.
The next morning, the child's mother was driven by a neighbor to the hospital and told authorities the 8 pound, 13 ounce infant is hers, Melia said.
The teenager was immediately given psychological treatment and was hospitalized, he said. She has said little about the incident.
The child has been transferred to a children's hospital in La Plata, 37 miles from Buenos Aires.

Several years back, a prominent local attorney died and his wife had him brought home and had him sitting up in a chair in his den for all to view.

My cousin actually went to the viewing and said it was beyond bizarre.

Is it just me, or does she look like Fiona-in the ogre-stage's ugly stepsister?

Police say a man tried to cut off his own arm at a restaurant in Modesto, Calif., because he thought he had injected air into a vein while shooting cocaine and feared he would die unless he took drastic action.

I love the line at the end of the article - "The Dennys closed for the night."
