Animal control officers raided a house in Menlo Oaks filled with rats and mice. Many were found dead, and possibly tortured.
The humane society says it's one of the most disturbing scenes they've ever witnessed.

Animal control officers found themselves knee deep in rodents.
"It was horrific. When they walked in they had to cinch up their pant leg so the rats and mice wouldn't climb up their legs," said Scott Delluchi of the Peninsula Humane Society.

The owner of the house, 46-year-old Robert Hollywood (can that really be his real name?), was arrested and charged with animal cruelty.

"They were kept in the freezer. Then there were dead rats in the disposal in deplorable conditions," Delluchi said. (I'm going out on a limb here and saying that any animal found in a disposal is going to be in deplorable condition.)

Wagstaffe says the court is now trying to figure out if Hollywood is mentally insane.

Good thing there were no pictures (yet).

rats rats everywhere. Where is Ben? The Pied Piper?

That and who has the job of polishing the stones.

Isn't the Tonight Show filmed in the late afternoon? If so, very tacky of Heidi to wear diamonds before dusk, whether in her ass or no. Obviously she should have worn pearls.

And Wonk honey, your avatar is reminiscent of Self Employed Fluffer and has to go.

I was just thinking that.

I found this at wonk.com (didn't know there was one).

He's Diego the dog. He looks guilty for some reason. Maybe he took Tina.

Where I am originally from, an area that yearly competes for the snow/cold/ice capital of the country, people always say that -- "it would suck to live where the seasons don't change and Christmas is not white."

Of course, those who have fled the godforsaken frozen tundra for warmer climes always say "that's the bullshit you say when you got no choice." Sort of like poor folks who say that rich people are unhappy.

I am happy to go on the record and say that I do not miss snow..not now, not at Christmas, not ever. I do not miss having my entire body start to hurt from the cold as I went from house to car and back again. I do not miss shoveling. I do not miss any of it.

Good day.

You're going to do it, aren't you? Force me to agree openly with you for the third time... Freak, we are practically sock puppets.

When I learned that there are places that are not as godforsaken and cold as upstate NY, I cursed my parents for moving me there as a small child. My mom is still hanging in up there with her "I'd miss the change of seasons" bullshit, but I made it out. I MADE IT OUT!

As someone who went to college in the frozen tundra of central new york, I can tell you that the only good thing about living in a place so god-forsakenly cold is that your beer does not get warm on the trip from the grocery store to your home.

I am sure nobody is counting (I am!).

My folks would tease me with a trip to Florida every Easter so I knew that not everyone lived in cold, snow and darkness 7 or 8 months out of the year. As soon as they could get my sister to move out of their house they sold it and now live in Florida most of the time and visit the tundra when it is not frozen -- bastards made me suffer through that crap for 23 years and NOW they move to the land where the mouse is king.

Sing it, sister. If it weren't for the fact that my husband can't really get a job outside TCOTU (except maybe London, and, really, that's no improvement, weather-wise), we'd most likely be elsewhere.

I don't know where, but somewhere where there's no winter. I love spring, summer and fall, but I HATE winter (does anyone hear Chris Rock talking? I luuuuuuv black people, but I HAAAATE... you know the rest.)

The snow is fun for about a week or so, if that. After that, it's just a disgusting pain in the tuchus.

But it can freeze, which is never pleasant. And if you drink enough to piss yourself while out in that kind of cold, well, I don't gotta tell you how not pleasant that is.

Drink it all before you get home. Problem solved.

Yes, but the summers were beautiful, no?
Warm summer nights - stays light until 10.
Not 90 degrees when you're trying to sleep.
Not sweating 5 lbs of water when you first get into the car.

Does anyone have any experiences with partner Yoga poses being used in Yoga classes in New York? I currently belong to Equinox and they have lots of great classes, but I haven't seen any partner stuff going on.

:

I :love: partner yoga!!! But I don't have a partner.

. Perhaps you and I can lotus up?????

I am always looking to meet new friends and I *know* my husband will not care if I spend an evening wrapping my legs around some strange man.

. Now I am blushing. I know a man named Jaspal and he teaches a class called "Yoga for Lovers".

What do you say? PM me!!!!!!!

I counter with air conditioning re: the sleeping thing, less chance of SAD during the winter when you get like 6 hours of light (OK, I'm exaggerating) if you are lucky, and indoor parking.

Muggy. And very short. And but for a couple of weeks in the middle, the mornings are too cold to wear shorts comfortably and then it gets muggy and sucks if you have on pants from the morning and then by dinnertime you should think about putting long pants on again if you in fact switched to shorts during the day.

Summers where I am now are pretty fucking hot, but I spend time air-conditioned at work and the rest in the pool so it doesn't suck that bad. Also, I like being able to sit on the deck at 2am and drink a beer and have a smoke and have it be around 75 degrees.
