Forgot to Title this Post


Today Hardingfele sent me an article about a Russian cat nursing some orphaned hedgehogs. (This story should appeal to my Russian readership.) The photos are cute, but it is the comments on this post that really make it noteworthy. Especially this rant about same sex marriage in Ireland, which one might argue has nothing to do with cats in Russia who adopt hedgehogs:

THIS IS WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN IRELAND IF WE LEGISLATE FOR GAY MARRIGE. WE WILL SEE THE COLLAPSE OF ALL MORAL CODES – PARENTS WILL BE ABLE TO MARRY THEIR CHILDREN. HUMANS WILL BE ABLE TO MARRY BADGERS. HORSES WILL BE ABLE TO MARRY TURNIPS. WEIGHTLIFTERS WILL BE ABLE TO MARRY TRAFFIC BOLLARDS. THIS IS WRONG WRONG WRONG. WE ARE ON THE TOP OF A SLIPPERY SLOPE.

I like the choice to write this all in caps. It drives home the writer's passion, or possibly insanity, about the subject. And for your convenience, I am including the photo that came up when I googled traffic bollards:




You're welcome.
