Chicken Adopts Litter of Puppies
A hen in Shrewsbury, UK has been nesting on a litter of puppies born on the farm of Edward and Ros Tate. This is to the chicken’s advantage, as the Tates have since decided to not eat her:
Mr Tate said: ‘Mabel was hatched here about a year ago. She would have gone onto someone’s dinner plate but we saved her.[...]
'We have a dog, Nettle, which has just given birth to a litter of pups. Within a few days of giving birth, Nettle was up and about, prowling in the yard.
‘Mabel observed Nettle’s behaviour and, as soon as there was a chance, she hoped into the dog basket to roost on the pups.
‘She keeps them and herself warm, while Nettle is outside on the yard.’

they said something about "all your post-dated checks" or "cheques," I guess. Do people give all of their rent che(ck)(que)s up front, to be cashed later?
It's often the practice, especially if it's a yearly lease.
I think I would love that (see earlier posts re: forgetting to pay rent), now that I pretty much always have the rent money in the bank on time.
Jesse, are you watching Mike Holmes, aka my husband's man-crush?

Oh, ouch. Uh, they never served

whale during our omakase. But I would be naive to be totally surprised they'd cross that particular line.

I think it would be easier on everyone all round. The landlord wouldn't have to hound laggards or wait for all the cheques to deposit them.

Whale is shocking (though I don't know why... we eat mammals all the time, just not marine ones). But what is more shocking is the $600 bill for two.
All of you Hump goers, is it always that expensive?
Sassy Gay Friend Saves Romeo And Juliet (VIDEO)
We like our gay friends sassy and reasonable. And Juliet Capulet certainly could've used a sassy gay friend as she was about to commit suicide. He would've doled out blunt advice like, "I think you're fourteen and you're idiot." Perhaps she wouldn't kill her self with such a good friend telling it like it is.
