Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

They are DNA testing dog poop!?! Maybe they should donate that money to test the backlog of rape kits.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

There was a whole This American Life thing about the dog poop DNA testing! All of that sounds nuts.

Only certain individuals have permission to send messages to that group. So, individuals in the group can't reply all to a message from the group.

Oh man, that is brilliant. My Outlook at least gives me a heads up when I'm replying all to a lot of people...

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

These new regulations seem...excessive.

Dana chose a much nicer word than I would have. Crossing all available digits that you find your true house and get out get out GET OUT of there.

Wow, Suzi!

Did you know that meteorological Spring starts on March 1st?

I did not. I don't think I can assimilate this new information.

I did see a robin yesterday, but I think we might have them year round.

I don't expect to see crocuses till March, but they're often poking their heads up through snow. I also expect to see snow in May. I like seeing tulips with snow inside them.

The apartment complex keeps putting new rules in place, most have been minor tweaks but yesterday they sent out notice about two new programs.

If they're changing the rules of your lease, can't you? That doesn't seem fair.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Yes! That's the program I heard!

There are a lot of dog owners in our neighborhood, and, honestly, so many of them don't pick up their dogs' poo from the sidewalk that sometimes tracking them down via DNA is really appealing.

And I happened to come across it finally. And initially I thought that it was a little on the crazy side to DNA dogs.

Ira Glass
Really? Why did it seem crazy?

Debbie Logan
Doesn't it sound crazy?

Ira Glass
Yeah, it actually does sound crazy. Well it just seems like, really? Things have come to this? That that's what we're going to do?

Debbie Logan
And it's working.

The apartment complex keeps putting new rules in place, most have been minor tweaks but yesterday they sent out notice about two new programs.

There is a line in the lease that says "Resident agrees to abide by all amendments and additions to said rules after due notice of any such amendments or additions". They are saying these changes fall under amended rules.

The online community board is flipping out over all of this.

I asked why they needed to see the car registration, who will be enforcing the parking rules - private security or tow trucks, and why only 40 guest spaces (and do they really expect that some residents who haven't gotten their tags won't park there?).

I'm so done. Was talking with our maintenance guy about all this. He is a GEM. Told him we were planning on buying a place and he gave me him number and said he would be happy to do any handy man work and show me how to do stuff if needed.
