Bill Clinton spoke to the Netroots Nation conference last night. It's an inspired speech, done without notes and with extemporaneous digressions based on a heckler's call.
Before he spoke, a range of Netroots Nation heroes spoke, including my hero in Congress: Brad Miller.
Miller has been awesome…
Nicholas Kristof has an interesting op-ed in the NY Times about the relationship between pig farming and MRSA. I'll be curious to see what he writes about in his next column, since he says, "This is a system that may help breed virulent "superbugs" that pose a public health threat to us all. That'…
Those godless heathenish Scandinavians…I think you can figure this one out even if you don't know Norwegian.

Thanks, Kjetil Åkra!
If you really must have something in English, Kristine uncovers a Chick parody: Mommy burns in Hell. That'll cheer you right up.
The dog sniffs gently at the baby in my lap. "So, what the heck is this?"
"This is SteelyKid. Be nice to her."
"But, I mean, what is it? It's not a bunny, is it?" She sniffs some more, just to be sure.
"What do you mean? Of course she's not a bunny. She doesn't look anything like a bunny."

Wow...if I was that lion I would've just killed the pig. I'm sure getting headbutted over and over again can be irritating
This reminds me of when my small dogs head butts my Greater Swiss. He just takes it and tries to walk away. The small dog continues because she knows he isn't doing anything to stop it.
I suspect if the lioness wanted to kill the pig, she would. She may just not be hungry and sees no point in wasting future food by killing it now. Annoying as it may be to her "now", the next time the pig comes around asking for a fight, she might just give him one and eat him for dinner.
I don't know, I think it's also entirely possible that pig was giving her a run for her money. They have wicked tusks used just for the purpose of ruining someone's day, and I do'nt think the pig was headbutting her so much as running in and slashing with them. Still, if she wanted to kill him she more than likely could have.
I do like the lion's 'I'm ignoring you now' attempt. Standard cat behavior for 'I have lost control of this situation and know not what happens next.'
Predator FAIL
It's been a while since I saw the movie, but isn't this taken from/used in 'Born Free'...?
