Capitalism - Feudalism without the King

 Tax the Rich

 Website Wednesday

Just like once and a while I visit Amazon, once and a while I have to move furniture. Humans are wacky. But then I saw this site this morning:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/12/03/lion-tiger-bear-negligence_n_4374091.html

and I almost cried. Yes, I, steel-souled I, almost cried. Not because the money spent for these three abused wild animals should have been spent on human unfortunates but because the whole story is a metaphor, people. Due to reasons they're not telling, three natural enemies, natural predators, are living together in harmony. Good job, bear, tiger and lion. And humans, please don't forget their meal time - ever.

And now for segueing:

I know I've shown a similar site before (maybe the same site?) but as we're in a holiday season in the USA (and other places), it's a good time to see where kids sleep/live throughout the world. Some are sleeping in pleasant environments, most not, and the main issue in those pictures is the lack of hygiene which probably inhabits all of their world.

Another picture:

Now here's your brown bear in the wild. Cute but don't touch and don't offer to play with him/her and that piece of snow.

I'm on a roll with animal pics today. From the same site:

Why do these puppies all look just this side of feral?

I don't know how accurate these maps are but they sure are interesting:

Be sure to click the double gold arrows on the left and right for a lot of different/off-beat photo-journalism.

Finally, fashion and style:

It's a UK based site so many sites are from there but the rest of the world is represented. Blogs look current and there's a lot to see/read here. However, Firefox will not link to these blogs so "opening in a new window" was the only option. You may have better luck. 

That's it for today. And yes, I'm really going to go and move furniture. No idea why I have this furniture moving bug today. Go ask the lemming why that cliff is so tempting.

See you next week.
