I will do a longer post about this next week over on Life by Pets, but I think this article by Emily Yoffe over at Slate is something all animal lovers should be paying attention to. On online boards, I’ve been around people who accuse anyone who buys a pet from a breeder of “killing shelter pets”. And while in some shelters, it’s still pretty easy to just walk in and find a pet, that’s not always the case. Rescue organizations need to figure out that a perfect home isn’t likely, and a good “forever” home is better than none.

Couples and their Money
04
Feb
We’re discussing a 5 part series on Slate about how couples manage their finances. Do they combine all their money, just some of it, or none of it?
We’re common potters, in the author’s terms. It is what works best for us, but I don’t believe that is the only way for people to manage their finances. Much like everyone’s marriage is different, how they manage their money as a couple (or as individuals) is a decision best left up to them. There is no right way, there isn’t even a “grown up” way, other than not constantly bouncing checks.
