Keep on Cruisin’

January 19, 2012

An Italian cruise ship from the Costa Cruise Line ran into a shelf of coral last week and started taking on water.  It listed to one side and “sank” (it didn’t actually “sink” since when it hit the coral the captain steered the ship toward shallower ground so it would be easier to evacuate).

Collective Bias offered me the chance to try out a new dog food for Link. How can I resist something for this cute face? When we first adopted Link from the pound (way back in 2000) we started feeding her Pedigree, but since I have been out of work I haven’t been able to afford [...]
