ICYDK – Neutering Your Ex, Mental Solutions, & Stumptown Fil

The Humane Society for SW Washington is Valentine’s Day ready in a pretty morbid way.  If you have an ex that is causing a hangup in your heart, the Humane Society for SW Washington will let you name a cat after your ex, and then pay to have them neutered.  $50 and you’ll get the catharsis you so richly deserve.

We kind of have an answer to a big question in our state, how do we help the folks with mental health.  We are 3,000 beds short.  We have 5,000; we need 8,000, and we need $500,000,000 over the next five years to hire the workers.  So there we go…  I guess we just gotta decide if we wanna do that or keep complaining about it; we do love complaining.

And finally, it is Groundhog’s Day.  This morning, Punxsutawney Phil didn’t see his shadow, but we anxiously await Stumptown Fil’s prediction, the beaver at the Oregon Zoo.  Of course, we are awaiting his prediction, but it’s usually not a good idea to live by it, as he’s about as reliable as flipping a coin, but he IS adorable.
