UPDATE! rebekah the raccoon.

Mark Brown has made a name for himself and his pet raccoon Rebekah by uploading YouTube videos of the two sharing showers, dancing to "Chain of Fools," and generally enjoying each other's company.

But all that came to a chattering halt last week after Brown received a visit from the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency, which promptly took the animal away. (via)

this is VERY upsetting.

thx jenny!

raccoons can be jerks sometimes.

here's a video of google partner, kevin rose, who catches a raccoon attacking his puppy (whose name is toaster), and drops some southern justice on him.

SASSY!

A Central Texas resident Sarah Slamen brought down the hammer of citizen justice on the Senate Health and Human Services Committee's anti-choice members with an excoriation for the ages — until she was unceremoniously shut down by Chairwoman Jane Nelson (R) mid-speech, and then dragged away by four DPS Troopers.
