I was absolutely delighted to learn that Comedy Central has ordered 26 new episodes of Futurama. First episodes to be shown mid-2010.
I was bummed when Christopher Eccleston left the new Dr. Who a few years back, to the point that I basically abandoned my active viewership of the show. However, I recently reset my DVR to record them and fell in love all over again after hearing these few, simple lines:
Earlier this week, our 1-year-old French Bulldog Stitch had “an incident” at doggy day camp. As the day camp staff described it, “she got another dog’s tooth caught on her head.” Basically, Stitch saw a tennis ball in the mouth of a mellow, 9-year-old black lab, and hurled herself at it in an attempt to wrest it away. She succeeded only in scraping one of the dog’s teeth across her scalp.
When I picked her up a few hours later, she was running around crazily with a Scottie, a little patch of skin showing where the on-site vet had shaved it to assess the seriousness of the injury. It doesn’t seem to bother her in the least.
If you haven’t read the comic, shame on you. Well, shame on you, but check it out: It’s gonna be animated!
