The Zoo That Changed

Serval Cat, Tautphaus Park Zoo

I remember going to the Tautphaus Park Zoo as a kid and leaving entertained, but a bit distressed. Why did all those animals have to spend their days in concrete-and-iron cages?

No more. The zoo has cleaned up its act and is now one of my favorite places to visit in Idaho Falls. Read about it here at Uncharted.net.

The Best Part

Kerplunk! by Patrick F. McManus

Admittedly, I myself was getting a little tired of the advances in technology. It used to be that all the different kinds of wackos sat out in their little isolated cabins or apartments somewhere. Each went through an entire lifetime without seeing another wacko of his particular ilk. Now a wacko can get on the Internet and find the other nine wackos in the world who are just like him.

McManus goes on to say they get to gether to decide what to blow up, but given the Unabomer lived in an isolated cabin as a Luddite and still managed to blow things up, there's a little flaw in McManus' logic. Nevertheless, I see where he's going with this.
