Seriously...

Hi All,
It's Thursday and the weather folks are telling us it's going to be rainy/cloudy/pouring/drizzling through next Tuesday. Oh good...not!
Anyway...
You guys are all doing GREAT keeping up with your classes-don't forget you get to 60 classes with your teammate and you get that fabulous tote FREE! (While supplies last) Have fun with it...

Now, I think everyone knows that I LOVE animals. Mr. P&P and I are the proud parents of a 7 month old baby yellow Lab and to say we miss our 8 year old Lab, Ally, after she passed from cancer is a severe understatement. We treated Ally for months with the newest and best medications at the BEST place...TUFTS and we would do it again in a heartbeat. We also supported Paws 4 a Cure-the walk to fight canine cancer. Lilly has health insurance, every toy known to man, lives in her own room and is fed only organic food and treats. Her pediatrician is THE BEST vet in our State and we love her to BITS!!! Just the other day, I saved a baby bird (their nest is in a shrub near our front door) from a crow by standing over it in my yard for almost 30 minutes until the Mommie Bird came back. I love all animals (well, except snakes maybe) and believe they should be protected and never abused.
However...
PETA came out today admonishing President Obama for killing a FLY during a recent interview. The fly was annoyingly buzzing around the President during his interview and he waited until it landed on his hand and he whacked it. The decedent then fell to the floor where the President picked it up, with a tissue, after the interview. PETA says it's going to send the President a device that will allow him to catch insects and then safely release them outside.
Uh...
Seriously?
PETA, here's a newflash...this totally ruins your street cred. As an organization you do a great deal to help animals but stuff like this? Time to rethink. And, while we're at it, I do not agree with anyone throwing fake blood on anyone else. If someone chooses to wear fur, EDUCATE them, do not throw things at them. There again-street cred=0. Please stick to educating the public through your organization and maybe start in the schools with information on how to save animals, treat them well and take care of them. And, I have to be honest, the next time a GD fly is buzzing around ME, I will whack it just like the President and I will not feel bad.
