EXCLUSIVE Sofía Vergara and Joe Manganiello divorcing after 7-year marriage

Well, in my more urban experience, I've seen a full grown moose that's gentle enough to be friends with a squirrel.

I can't wait until the rabbits organize and start patrolling the area with AK-47s. You're probably the type who would do nothing and let a bear kill a moose calf.

That's quite a gherkin he's jerkin'!

He was cleaning up his yard after a storm and a tree trunk fell on him and broke his back. Dorothy:Oh, come on, Ma. That's superstitious nonsense. You know, step on a crack, break your mother's back. It doesn't work. I know. [ominous pause] I tried.

Me, too

No word on the whereabouts of Daffy Duck... South Florida residents have a hare-raising problem in their community. A bunny breeder based in Fort Lauderdale illegally let loose a thriving group of domesticated rabbits on the streets, leaving neighbors to deal with the problem. “One of the neighbors moved a couple of years ago, and she just left her rabbits in the street when she moved,” Alicia Griggs, local rabbit supporter, told the Associated Press. “They were not spayed or neutered, so they started multiplying.” Between 60 and 100 lion head rabbits have made new homes in the backyards of houses located in Wilton Manors, a suburb of the coastal metro area. Starting at just 3 months old, the female rabbits birth litters of two-to-six offspring every month. Their thick fur and daring nature aren’t the best fit for outdoor life in the Sunshine State, thanks to hot temperatures and predators. “They’re not supposed to be in the heat because they could have a heat stroke when the temperatures get above 85 and there’s predators all around that can kill them. And we’ve found dead rabbits all over the place,” Griggs shared. Some residents of Jenada Isles, an 81-home community in Wilton Manors, find that having the bunnies around brings a sense of joy to the neighborhood. One resident, Gator Carter, puts out food for the lionheads and his two young grandchildren enjoy feeding rabbits to the animals. WTF?!? “People drive by, stop, love ’em, feed ’em,” Carter said. “They don’t bother me. We have a couple Airbnbs on the island here and the people (guests) are just amazed that the rabbits come right up to them.” Having bunnies hopping around the neighborhood might be a cute addition for some, but it’s also been an annoyance to others. “Every morning, first thing I do is get up and cover up the holes and chase them out of the backyard too. I like them, but I just wish they would go somewhere else,” local resident Jon King, deceased porn star, said. “Rescue would be great.” King said the hares dig holes in his yards and leave bunny droppings on sidewalks and driveways. He shared he had to spend $200 to repair his outdoor lights after the rabbits chewed on the wiring. The rabbit repeller didn’t work for King, and his little dog doesn’t scare them either. In fact, King’s dog “is their best friend.” Awww! The best chance of survival for these domesticated rabbits would be moving them to where they belong — inside homes, away from all possible dangers. Jon King describes the damage caused by rabbits. Death has not been too kind to him! The City of Wilton Manors initially said the rabbits would need to be exterminated, but backtracked and agreed to allow residents some time to raise money in order to rescue the lionheads and get them into homes. “The safety of this rabbit population is of utmost importance to the City, and any decision to involve ourselves will be certain to see these rabbits placed into the hands of people with a passion to provide the necessary care and love for these rabbits,” Police Chief Gary 'Beta' Blocker said in a statement. “They really need to be rescued. So we’ve tried to get the city to do it, but they’re just dragging their feet,” Griggs said. “They think that if they do that, then they’ll have to get rid of iguanas and everything else that people don’t want around.” Griggs is initiating the push to raise $20,000 to $40,000, which would cover the costs to capture, neuter, vaccinate, shelter and give away the growing group of bunnies, which “is not an easy process,” according to Monica Mitchell, whose East Coast Rabbit Rescue would likely lead the effort. Mitchell shared that very few veterinarians actually treat rabbits, and people interested in owning them tend to back out once they find out how much work these animals are. “People don’t realize they’re exotic pets and they’re complicated. They have a complicated digestive system and they have to eat a special diet,” Griggs admitted. “You can’t just throw any table scraps at them.” Alicia Griggs is initiating the push to raise $20,000 to $40,000, which would cover the costs to capture, neuter, vaccinate, shelter and give away the growing group of bunnies. https://nypost.com/2023/07/17/rabbits-invade-town-run-amok-on-residents-they-started-multiplying/

A Canadian man claims he was fired from his job at a fuel supplier when he helped rescue a desperate moose calf from a potential black bear attack. Mark Skage, who worked for AFD Petroleum Inc., was driving back from a job site when he saw the abandoned moose wandering on the side of the road in British Columbia, Canada on June 6. As he pulled over and hopped out of his vehicle, the calf attempted to climb into his truck as Skage noticed a bear stalking the “few day old” animal. “There was a black bear 50 yards away from her just waiting,” Skage said in a Facebook post. “I made a decision at the time after she kept (trying) to climb into the work truck that I couldn’t just leave her there. So I stuck her in the passenger side and drove to town to get her some help,” Skage added. Skage’s decision to bring the calf into his truck comes from his background as an outdoorsman and he knew that doing so was against the law. “I just couldn’t do it, in my heart. People can say all they want. I know as outdoorsmen, we talk about predator control. … Black bears are the number one predator for those calves. So I just thought, ‘Well, I can’t take care of the predator, but I guess maybe I can try and help out this little calf,’” Skage told CBC News. “It is against the law to pick up wild animals off the road or from out in nature, anywhere. It is illegal to be in possession of wildlife and transport wildlife,” he told the outlet. With the calf riding shotgun in his truck, Skage called his supervisor and the local Conservation Officer about his predicament before he named the moose Misty and found a rehab center to look after her until she was ready to be released. “A few days later Misty (that’s what I called her) got a ride to a rehab center a little farther south where they will let her grow up a bit before releasing her back into the wild,” his post read. Skage thought everything would be over but his company AFD Petroleum had a problem with his wildlife rescue. “All is well right? NOPE. AFD felt different and figured I was in grievous conflict with their wildlife policies. (they had never taken the time to know my background),” he said. Both the black and grizzly bear, along with wolves, are large predators of moose calves in Interior Alaska and Northern Canada and make up a large portion of calf deaths. “Black bears have been found to be the most important predator of moose calves in some areas of Alaska where grizzly bears are uncommon. In these areas, black bears killed about 40% of all moose calves that were born. Most predation was by adult males,” according to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game. “Anyway to wrap up they did decide given all their options that letting me go was the best thing. So the lesson I learned was AFD is ok spilling fuel on the ground but not helping wildlife,” Skage concluded. The AFD condemned Skage’s rescue, saying he should’ve called the conservation officer and allowed trained wildlife officials to handle relocate Misty. “Instead of reporting the situation to a conservation officer and allowing the authorities to handle the rescue and relocation of the moose, the individual made the independent decision to transport an uninjured moose calf, a wild animal, in the front seat of his company vehicle for many hours,” said AFD Petroleum president Dale Reimer according to CBC. “This not only put the employee and other road users at risk but also potentially caused distress and harm to the moose.”

WANDA MCPHERSON ARRESTED FOR CHILD ABUSE AFTER DAUGHTER EXHIBITS SIGNS OF SHAKEN BABY SYNDROME!

I was going to post that yesterday, but I was distracted by my vomiting.

A golden retriever stole the hearts of bystanders by doing nothing at all. TikTok user patric.ryan22 shared a video of an adorable pup lying on its back in the parking lot of Harpoon Brewery in Vermont. Not knowing what to do with their protesting pup, the pet parent in the clip patiently waits out the canine's antics. "This pup didn't want his day at the brewery to end," the TikTok user captioned the moment. In the clip, the golden retriever's owner holds on to the dog's leash while they wait for the dog to get up, eventually pulling out a phone to scroll through while the pet's tantrum ticks on. Bystanders filming the video narrate the amusing scene. "He's like, 'Well guys, I guess we're gonna stay here,'" a person says over the video. Another voice adds the dog's POV, "He does not wanna leave." In the video, after more time passes, the owner puts away their phone and walks around before looking down at the dog — who hasn't moved an inch and still refuses to leave the brewery. "He doesn't know what to do," one of the bystanders narrates as the dog's owner tugs on the golden retriever's harness to get them up and moving. "He's like, 'C,mon.' 'Alright. Alright,'" the voice continues as the owner finally gets the dog to roll over, get back on its paws, and pull its body up from the ground. However, this initial jolt of energy isn't enough to get the pet moving. In the clip, the dog sits upright on its paws but still refuses to move from its place in the parking lot despite the owner's efforts. "He's like, 'I don't think so bud, My day's not over yet,'" one of the narrators says as the dog once again plops down on the ground. "And he's gonna go back on his back," the other bystander adds. The dog's owner continues to try to get the golden retriever moving before giving up and picking up the canine. The pet parent carries the dog towards the cars in the parking lot as onlookers laugh in delight. stubborn dog.mp4

Steph Curry continues to show that just about any shot from long distance is makeable -- no matter the sport. Curry, who has made more than his share of highlight-reel shots during his NBA career, added to his legacy on the golf course Saturday with a hole-in-one at the American Century Championship celebrity tournament in Stateline, Nevada. Curry, who led the event after the first round, sank his tee shot on the par-3, 152-yard seventh hole at Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course -- the first ever on the hole during the American Century Championship.

Yeah, but I don't think the estates of men who died 30+ years ago will be too litigious.

Yes. Andy Cohen is great friends with him.

Cases like this always make one ponder things like why would anyone want to kill cereal?

I understand actors' concerns about AI, and I think they are quite valid. However, I can't help but think of the possible gay porn benefits. As someone who was a fan of quite a few stars from the 1980s, I've become much more cognizant than I was back then about how many of them often did scenes with guys that weren't comparatively as hot. Just imagine if the technology became simple and cheap enough that anybody could pair up any 2 (or 10) guys they'd want to see together, even if they never worked together. (and wouldn't THAT be an interesting topic?)

I knew I recognized you in this video!
