Harambe

There's been a lot of uproar over the shooting of Harambe the gorilla after a child fell into it's enclosure at the Cincinnati Zoo.  The video of the gorilla dragging that small child around is disturbing.  I don't know if the zoo did the right thing or not but I do know that the child was definitely in danger whether the gorilla meant to harm or not, the boy was being hurt as he was thrown around.  What I don't understand is why that negligent parent is not being punished.  It's not easy to get into the enclosures at zoos so it took some effort for that boy to do it.  He also informed his mother ahead of time that he was going into the moat.  Zoos are a good educational experience but people need to realize that it can be a dangerous place if they don't pay attention to what their children are doing.  Dangerous for the animals as well.  I've seen kids throw things into the habitats...this is totally unacceptable.  If kids can't behave, they don't deserve to go to zoos.  RIP Harambe

voters

Dead people are voting in California.  Lots and lots of them.  So either California is the place to die because there's quite the afterlife or someone is stealing identities.  One guy has voted 5 different years since his death.  fraud

MS804

Many theories have been given for the disappearance of flight MS804 but one by two Turkish pilots is a wild one.  They claim that just about an hour before the plane went off of radar, they saw a UFO.  It had green lights and passed them about 11:30pm on Thursday.  Could a UFO be the cause of the downed aircraft?  plane's disappearance 

lucky dog

The owners of Ollie the Collie thought he was getting old when he became almost paralyzed.  They took him to the vet to have him euthanized.  It was a sad day but they felt it was best to put him out of his misery.  Thanks to a Veterinary Intern who took a second look, Ollie is still with us.  The Intern found a tick behind Ollie's ear and after it was removed, Ollie was his old self again.  Saved just in time

teen arrested

In South Carolina a teen was arrested for writing a story about killing with a gun.  With all the sensitivity today about shootings, that could be understood except that the story was written about killing a dinosaur.  The teen, Alex Stone, wrote it in a Creative Writing class.  He got creative and is being punished for it.  Since dinosaurs aren't alive today, it's obvious that the story is fictional.  why?

werewolf

A mythical creature, the werewolf, is making a comeback.  And I'm not talking about the movies.  A small town named Hull is living in fear after several sightings of the half animal-half man has been seen around the town.  A paranormal group was brought in to hunt for it and say that they too witnessed it's presence.  They didn't actually see it but did encounter a large animal in the brush that they couldn't identify.  The huntings will continue during every full moon.  scary creature

new band

I think I may have found my new passion.  I've been looking for a band to follow and this might just be the one.   I heard Raizin' Kain rehearse and my first thought was, "there's a lot of talent in this room."  If you go see them, let me know what you think.
