LOL, my ironic pic of the day. There were actually two copies of this sign on the pole warning everyone about not posting signs.

Eagle Steals Baby!
19 Dec
Holy cow! I’ve heard of eagles taking puppies and small pets for food, but this bird tries to take a baby! It picks it up far enough to be above the mom’s head, and is flying off with the infant!! Wow! Talk about a story to tell your kids!
Addendum–>Haha! They say now, it’s a joke, but still very funny and well done. I actually have seen eagles pick up huge things before. If you want to see them, visit Clarksville, MO on eagle days Jan. 26-27, 2013. I once counted 47 eagles on a single day, and I was only there a couple hours. They come down looking for food as the Mississippi River ices over. I’ll try to post pics this year. You can find more information here. The little town is cute too; it has some shopping and darling restaurants. Great visit!!

Now That’s A Hello Kitty!!
10 Dec
I’ve never quite gotten into the Hello Kitty craze. I liked Barbie, I loved Polly Pocket, and My Little Pony was a keeper. But, Hello Kitty? Not so much. Still, that’s just me. The little girls I’ve babysat and my many female second cousins are scooping these products up like they’ll never go out of style. I even see college girls walking around with Hello Kitty Backpacks!
So in honor of all those female tweens and tweens-at-heart, here is an amazing Hello Kitty exhibition promoting tree-planting in Japan. This thing even shoots lasers! It’s like a superman Hello Kitty!
Law Gone Wild
28 NovGoodbye world, Goodbye television, Goodbye Facebook.
That time has come, that dreaded moment that comes twice every year. Yes, finals have arrived. As each day passes, more and more students seem to drop off the face of the earth. Social media collapses, Gas stations and 24-hour food marts see swells in sales, and stress level shoot through the roof. Life is now simply a move from notes to outlines to Powerpoints to practice tests. This is a particularly dreaded time for law students. There is so little to find humorous when studying the law that our sense of humor is highly twisted by graduation, but hey! we can still be funny! So in the spirit of loosening up before exams begin, I thought I’d share one of my favorite poems for law students. So without further adieu, I present G. K. Chesterton’s “The Horrible History of Jones.” This is why we study law–to keep it from becoming like this. Sadly we seem to have failed in regards to the abbreviations; they are just this bad. I counted 21 in one of my courses!
Jones had a dog; it had a chain;
Not often worn, not causing pain;
But, as the I. K. L. had passed
Their ‘Unleashed Cousins Act’ at last,
