Dog Surprises Officer After Being Freed From A Fence

Bear learns to walk on hind feet.

This video made my jaw drop. This bear clearly has learned how to adapt to his limb loss, and if I was in the woods and saw this, I would not believe my own eyes. So here it is. The bear that has learned to walk like a man. Enjoy.

CUTE FACTOR = 199% BE WARNED!

My Deer Dad...

My Daddy, Roger Smith underwent surgery today. He had a hernia removed...yowch!
He has been suffering this annoying and limiting pain for a long time now, and I am glad his operation was a success. I just heard from Mom (Cyndy) a few moments ago, and all went well.
And no, I didn't spell the title of this post wrong, I wanted to also share with you these pictures that my parents took while spending a day at Ohiopyle State Park. They took this day trip as a sort of fun thing to do before Dad went under the knife and would be out of commission for awhile.




They soon encountered some very bold and playful deer. NO - they didn't touch them for fear of deer ticks, but these deer were very friendly. In the last picture, which I cropped down, you can see two of them on their hind legs play wrestling with each other!



Stay Tuned...more to come!

Christian the Lion

I am fascinated with this video of Christian the Lion. And yes, it is true.
Here is the link to the subject on SNOPES, WIKIPEDIA, George Adamson's Website, Christian the Lion's Webpage, and BORN FREE FOUNDATION's Website.
Being the animal lover that I am, you know how hysterically weepy I got when I saw this. They played it on the Today show the other morning, but left the end out, which I think is one of the most amazing parts.
And the cynical sub host David Gregory made fun of it. I wanted to slap him.
Anyways, enjoy if you have not seen it.
This was sent to me by both Lynn Filusch and my sister in law, Natalie.
Enjoy!

This is AMAZING!

MUST WATCH TV TODAY: PUPPY BOWL

If you have never seen THE PUPPY BOWL on Animal Planet, you have really missed out. It is on in a little less than an hour, at 3PM. It goes from 3pm to 6pm, and is just about the cutest thing that you could imagine!
Here is a taste of Puppy Bowl 3, from last year. Enjoy!

To hold off a civil war...

...against Babs fans on the verge of an assassination attempt on my part, I present a peace offering...one of my favorite performances of hers, from Funny Lady.
There. I kind of like her sometimes. Now hopefully the Babs armada will let me escape with my life.
;)
luv,
