Lived in this town for 10 years, drive pass the monument 3 or 4 times a week…never stopped once.

Never ones to be outdone, Crossett Library is rolling out some pet therapy for our patrons.  Of course, after a quick call to PETA it turned out that renting kangaroos and elephants is not easy OR humane (or legal, I’m not sure, I hung up when they started talking about lawsuits.)

But our patrons deserve the best, so they got the best that we got!  From left to right, our Animal All-Stars:

Horton Who

George Monkey

Reindeer

Kangaroo Rabbit

Sleepy Boy

Camel

Bearry

Hungry Caterpillar

If you’re in the area (on campus) feel free to come by this afternoon and Pet A Pet. (Best if you steer clear of the camel, fur is a little funky from spending most of its life inside the mouth of a golden retriever.)

Three weeks left until graduation. I will probably never see something quite like this again.

Music Monday #3:

Funny The Way It Is by Dave Matthews Band

Funny the way it is, if you think about it
Somebody’s going hungry, someone else is eating out
Funny the way it is, not right or wrong
Somebody’s heart is broken, it becomes your favorite song
