  • Today's NYT had an article about unconventional "service" animals: a seeing-eye pony, for example. But Ann Althouse's blog entry about the article is much shorter and more fun. (And there are, of course, legal aspects, which makes it very relevant for Lawprof Althouse. Although she also comments, "Gee, wasn't that little horsey cute?")

  • Amtrak runs a photo contest, inviting amateurs to submit pictures of their trains in action. Unfortunately, they also hire cops to arrest people taking pictures of their trains in action.

    Is that irony? I can never tell.

  • Mr. Clint Eastwood describes "What I've Learned" at Esquire. And when Mr. Eastwood chooses to impart wisdom, I'd suggest you listen up and listen hard, punk.

    (Via, of course, Dirty Harry's Place. Which, in case you didn't know, is a great blog for conservative opinion, smart takes on movies, and your daily hubba-hubba.)
