The animals say THANK YOU!!

Well, it looks like the people were heard!
http://www.thestar.com/news/gta/article/808805--ospca-heard-the-outcry-suspends-mass-euthanasia?bn=1

To be honest, I can't believe it.
As the song goes: "Power to the people."
Who would have thunk it?
Yes, 100 animals were put down, and yes, some more might die, but considering the original number of 350 has been reduced, and some lives have been saved, this is downright amazing.
Some might even say miraculous.
You can't tell me, people don't care about animals.
100 protesters, death threats, a planned funeral march, animals stolen, this stuff is AWESOME!!!
I commend every single person who wrote, who called, and who protested this gross error in judgement.
The article states that it was really a money thing, and that the animals were going to be killed to save $$$!
Imagine that came out after all the animals died?!
Those death threats would become real life.
I can tell you first hand, that it is not easy, or cheap to run these facilities, but the first option should have been to try and get as many out and fostered as possible, not, blanket euthanasia.
Ridiculous.
But, ridiculous with a happy ending.
I mean, death threats? Awesome. Should have thought of that myself.
Not that I would go through with it, sufficed to say it was a good tactic whomever thought of it.
I have ideas of who it might be actually, there are some very vigilant animal cruelty charities, and I would be willing to bet that they were behind some of this chaos.
And, again, I applaud them.

Ladybird Animal Sanctuary

A couple weeks ago, we had in our living room, three big hearted individuals, Melissa McClelland , Janine Stoll and Lisa Winn , from Ladybird Animal Sanctuary . The following is the transcription of the interview. You can find the video version up above. How did it all start? “I’m an animal lover, and a full-time touring musician," said McClellan. "And I think I just wanted part of my life to focus on my love for animals, because so much of my life is wrapped up being on the road. So I brought it up with these girls, and we all thought it was a great idea, so we’ve been talking about it for a few years now.” “I had already been doing it small scale," said Winn, "because I’ve worked at animal shelters, and had already been rescuing and fostering for a number of years.” “I felt like the three of us come from different backgrounds, and we work so nicely together," said McClelland. "Our personalities, we just click as friend. And Lisa has the background w

Best Metal'ish albums of 2022

We use the term Metal’ish because some of our favorite albums could be considered metal adjacent, not metal necessarily, but awesome none-the-less and worthy of this list. We are always on the hunt for the next awesome metal album and this year there was no shortage of great stuff, in fact, this list could have been a lot longer. Finding all these albums on our own would be near impossible. What we do is wait until all the YouTube metal nerds put out their metal lists and we watch them - 20 or so videos so far -  and any albums we haven’t heard yet, we check them out. Basically we let them find all the good albums that we missed and then check them out and see what we think. The criteria for this list is easy: is it a kick ass album? Yes or no? If no, then it’s probably power metal. If yes, we listen to it until we get sick of it. Anyways, here is the list of top metal’ish albums of 2022. We are reversing a trend and instead of making you wait to see what is #1, we will just start ther

Top 10 Reasons I’m Not Surprised I Don’t Have a Girlfriend.

I must have picked the right font, because it looks like Gop 10 ! Ok, it's no surprise that I'm procrastinating writing my newest project, though I did write a short story for the Toronto Star Short Story contest, which means I still haven't given up my dream of becoming a successful author. Lucky for me, being a successful author means: completing a project I start. Also, it should't come as a surprise that I'm single, so I've compiled a Top 10 list of the reasons for this. Top 10 Reasons I’m Not Surprised I Don’t Have a Girlfriend. #10 - I trim my toenails with my teeth. #9 - When I pulled my laundry out of the dryer, I didn’t find any underwear, that’s when I realized I was still wearing the pair I washed last week. #8 - I’m broke and broken. #7 - I run like a girl and sit down to pee. #6 - I cut my own hair. #5 - I cry when I watch ‘The Notebook’. #4 - I’ll eat anything that’s free. #3 - I’ll drink anything that’s free. #2 - The minute I realize I’
