I AM TRYING TO BREAK YOUR HEART: We'll be back to the usual silliness by day's end -- yesterday was a day of travel and celebration -- but until then, I feel like passing along one of the more depressing collections of journalism I've seen lately -- the Washington Post's series on troubles at the National Zoo.
We've got administrators changing records regarding animals who died while under their care, elephants suffering from tuberculosis because the Zoo failed to give the required tests, lies, deceit, everything but sex involved in a scandal that has claimed 23 animal lives in the past six years, including two red pandas that died when rat poison was left in their enclosure.
Oh, sad.
In other news, The Hebrew Hammer was occasionally cute, but mostly disappointing. Felt like they never really decided if Mordechai Benjamin Carver was supposed to be a macho Jew or a whiny, stammering stereotype. Missed opportunity.
Finally, you should make this duck dish sometime. Yum.
More later.
