Horse loses head, monkey loses innocence, world goes mad

In New Castle, NH, the other day, the head melted off a 15,000 pound ice sculpture of a horse. Too warm. (Maybe too big too - how much does a real horse weigh?)

In San Francisco Curious George stirs up a curious controversy. Too un-PC.

In Brockton, MA, a 6-year old (let me say that again: 6-year old) gets kicked out of school for sexual harassment.

It's beginning to sound like a tuna casserole kind of day.

so let me get this straight. this "English teacher" is saying the authors, "German Jews who escaped France with the first book's manuscript as the Nazis invaded," are insensitive to suffering being, of course, unaware or any implications of "the picture of the forlorn little primate alone in his cell [that] conjures haunting images of countless monkeys lingering in laboratories, suffering silently and alone."
