    bothers me about the animals tho'. predatory and dangerous but scared and panicked at being let loose and they are killed because of some idiot human being. what a terrible waste.

    Saw that on the Today show this morning. At the time, they did not know what happened. Hate that the animals had to be subjected to that.

    I knew someone who did a similar bit with their domesticated dogs. People are not in touch with reality when they hit bottom like that.

    So sad.

    Sad twist of irony that he was an animal lover and yet his actions caused them to be hunted. The guy's depression clouded his thinking. It's a tragedy all around.

    Yeah, it is tragic. Apparently they had to take down the animals due to the conditions of darkness and previous encounters that happened at the "reserve".

image source and article As I work in a mostly arid climate, although the past few springs have been very wet, I've never seen this happen to a body.  In other parts of the country that are more humid and cool, saponification happens.

Remember Your Rubbers

My education began in the Greater Chicago Catholic school system.  So the title to this post make me giggle.  When I was a little girl and it was raining outside, the nuns would tell us to "Put on your rubbers!" before we went out into the rain. This was back before kids were fragile snowflakes and a light rain was O.K. to go run around on a paved parking lot next to the church where a vicious game of dodge ball was considered healthy, but I digress.  Here I will tell the story of how I learned way more than I ever thought I would about the history of contraceptives (ironic, considering my early childhood huh?) Skip ahead 28 years to my first full time "permanent" job in archaeology. I had moved sight unseen to Boise for the job and had no idea what I was getting into. Lucky me got hired to finish the project from hell that none of their staffers wanted to handle- a huge survey of over 200 sites that had been shoddily completed in the field that still...
