Better Off Ted

The TV show Better Off Ted is hilarious! Anyone who has worked in the consumer products industry should find this show very funny and apt. (Although I'm sure it applies to many other industries/companies as well)

From abc.com
"Need cow-less meat grown in a test tube? Done.

Need pumpkins that also double as weapons of mass destruction? No problem.

Better Off Ted is a satirical office comedy about successful good guy, Ted, who runs research and development at the morally questionable Veridian Dynamics. No achievement is too far-fetched and no invention too unorthodox for Veridian. Ted's a single dad to a seven-year-old girl, and he loves his job, but he's starting to take a closer look at the company's extremely dubious practices. Do you manufacture the best teeth whitener ever if it could also kill off all of the planet's fish? Probably not, but... "

Ukraine's Varying Past

Phrase from a BBC news article about the Ukraine:

"Locals will tell you about the typical 20th Century Lvivite, who was born in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, grew up in Poland, got married under the Nazis, had children in the Soviet Union, and retired in independent Ukraine... all having never left the city. "

Wow, that's a lot of regimes to live through...

Canine Joint Supplement

At my request, Ari's swim therapist highly recommended the supplement "Joint Strong". 1.5 weeks after starting Ari on Joint Strong, Ari was a total powerhouse during her swim session. I was elated and decided that if she swam that well two weeks in a row then it definitely was the supplement.

Today was her second swim session while on Joint Strong and she was again stronger and had more endurance. So we are now going to order the 7lb bag from k9power.com who has cheaper prices and free shipping!
