http://news.sky.com/story/1428866/parking-mayhem-pensioner-smashes-into-10-cars I thought my parking skills were a little sketchy but this is in another league. According to the article the police did state that a medical emergency may have been involved. Not sure if they meant the driver or someone else though.

In no way am I defending this man for what he did, because it was downright cruel and probably uncalled for since he never actually says that the dogs were attacking his cattle, however, this is just another reason why people should keep their animals contained to their own property. Most of us Husky owners already know this but I know owners of other breeds who live out in the country who just let their dogs roam around like this. It is in the animal's best interest to be contained to keep them safe, to avoid this type of heartbreak especially. http://www.examiner.com/article/firefighter-kills-neighbor-s-dogs-sickening-facebook-pic-gets-firefighter-fired?cid=sm-faceb…

They try to reduce waste, but really they're just shoving the problem to another sector. I mean, if we start using food to make cups, won't that worsen hunger issues? Kind of?

Whenever he got loose, I know he'll find his way back after a few minutes of exploring. But it doesn't mean I don't go out looking. Maybe I'm just a paranoid. Maybe I just live in a bad area and I don't trust the people to not hurt my do…
