Petfinder, Craigslist & Gore

Sunday, Jul. 08, 2007 - 12:51 a.m.

Been spending a little time over on Petfinder, which is a marvelous searchable database with pictures for people who are looking for a pet.

I'm seeing some dogs here... well.. I don't quite know how to put this...

These dogs should not exist. I mean, they DO, but I'm seeing a couple of dogs here whose parents must surely have defied the laws of physics.

Conversely, when propagation of a species is handled carefully, especially in the feline community, you end up with cats that look like tigers.

I go and visit the Best-Of section of Craigslist now and again, and this is the latest gem from there.

Here is my response to Live Earth:

The carbon emissions from human activity are NOT causing global warming. Anybody who says so is perpetrating a hoax.

Nothing we do -- emission control, prayer, or throwing rocks at the moon, or anything else you can think of -- will make a difference.

And Al Gore, quite literally, is a big fat liar.

Mind you, I'm not saying don't do things that you believe are ecologically sound. Drive a hybrid. Separate your trash. Bring a canvas bag to the grocery store, like John and I have been doing since 1991, before all of this bullshit begain. Re use your tin foil. Whatever you want to do is fine with me.

Do it for the right reasons -- but do NOT do it based on a pack of lies.

There you go. Have a nice Sunday.
