A phishing musing:
Ever since Clarencegirl gave me an email address I have been receiving some very strange offers.
This is one I am tempted to take up on behalf of all Northern Rivers motorists and their pets!

I have a project I want you to run with us. It involves exportation of 35,000 barrels of crude oil daily from Kirkuk, Iraq. If you are interested, email me.
Mr. Yan.
A Bravo! musing:
A big bravo on 1st October 2008 to the many people (including Gold Coast SeaWorld staff, Australian Seabird Rescue volunteers and National Parks & Wildlife Service personnel) who successfully rescued a Bottlenosed Dolphin and her baby trapped in Prospect Lake at Ballina for the last two weeks.
Mum and bub were taken from the lake and released into the Richmond River.
A tolerance musing:
It's September and Spring is here and on the NSW North Coast soft fruits are beginning to ripen on the trees in our backyards.
Please be tolerant of the birds and bats which decide to feed on this fruit. They are only doing what comes naturally.
A rejoicing musing:
A YOUNG adult humpback whale was freed from shark control netting in which it was entangled off Tugan Beach on the Gold Coast on 27 Spetember 2008. Animal rescuers managed to sucessfully release it after 7 hours of sustained effort. Well done!
Anyone who spots a whale or other marine animals tangled in fishing gear or shark netting should call the 24-hour Shark Hotline on 1800 806 891.
An in the dog house musing:
A dog on the Tweed told a cat on the Richmond who whispered to a bird on the Clarence that a prominent local National Party member is out of his house and in the proverbial doghouse after he was found to be repeatedly sleeping in strange kennels.
A Cat v Dog war musing:
The Dog Channel has revealed another outbreak of 'hostilities' in the 1,ooo year Cat-Dog war:
The presidential campaign in recent days has involved statements about a Pit Bull wearing lipstick and a pig wearing lipstick. Now, cats are in on the lipstick debate, and the fur is expected to really fly.
"Can you put lipstick on a cat and call it change?" is a question being posed by the company behind two websites launched Thursday morning: Catsarebetter.com and Dogsarebetter.com. Vote early and vote often!
A vice-presidential musing:
Obama's running mate,
Senator Joe Biden, has a cat according to
Pet Shed. The man can't be all bad!
