Be a Jackass, Write to a Horse

The University of Pennsylvania set up an email address for all of you who wish to send your good wishes to Kentucky Derby winner Barbaro. As we /ALL/ know this animal broke its leg during the Preakness. Apparently, along with being a terrific runner (at least while it lasted) this horse also has the amazing ability to read email. I refuse to provide the link so you are going to have to trust me on this one.

In related news, hundreds of people in New York are protesting the health department's rule that doesn't allow them to bring their "emotional support" animals into restaurants and other places of business. ("Wagging the Dog, and a Finger" NewYork Times May 14, 2006)

What the hell is the matter with people!? Our country is removing any vestige of public health care from our government, we keep the minimum wage so low that it is absolutely impossible to pay rent let alone buy an occasional scrap of food, we subsidize big business, go to war over fabricated circumstances and our dutiful citizens are busy writing emails to a fucking horse and complaining that their rat disguised as an 8oz asthma-hound Chihuahua isn't allowed to accompany them to the grocery store!???
