A cartoon thread here on WOD would be fun. How about a cartoon of the day? Or a series called woofs? I think I remember you posted an original cartoon once that was quite witty, Pam. How about some more of them? :)

The brood of 29 waddling ducklings amazing drivers

27th April 2007

Bringing up youngsters near a main road can be a nerve-racking business for any parent.

So spare a thought for this mother mallard, trying to keep track of 29 ducklings within yards of the busy A1.

Since the huge brood appeared they have become the star attraction at Baldock Services in Hertfordshire, with staff leaving out bread and truckers pausing to let them cross the road.



Workers say there were originally 40 but more than a quarter have fallen by the wayside. If they all belonged to the same clutch it would be a record.

4-inch Lake County Chihuahua may be world's smallest dog

LEESBURG -- Meet tiny Dancer, a rust-colored, long-haired Chihuahua that may just be the world's smallest dog, weighing 18 ounces and standing not much more than 4 inches tall.

Dancer's owner, Jenny Gomes, said the diminutive Lake County canine may be on his way to being named the world's smallest living dog by Guinness World Records.

And Dancer may have a legitimate claim to the title. The last smallest dog -- measured by height -- was Danka Kordak of Slovakia, which stood 5.4 inches high, according to Guinness officials.

But that long-haired Chihuahua died. And Gomes said her Dancer is slightly smaller at 4.1 inches, from foot to the top of the shoulder.

Born June 8, Dancer can't officially claim the title until he is 1 year old.

"Then we're planning to throw him a birthday party, measure him officially and get him into the Guinness records as the smallest-living dog," Gomes said.

Chicken hatches kittens?
According to sender-inner Stuart F., "This chicken likes to lay eggs on this litter of kittens. Momma cat likes having a babysitter, and the kittens don't seem to mind having eggs laid on them."
