Dr. Filk was laid off yesterday. He was laid off without his supervisor being informed, if you can credit it.
I am home sick from work. I can’t even talk without squeaking and my eyes feel like they are swollen shut.

More baby animals
Vets said this was definitely a miracle baby, so she’s called Miracle. She was born very premature and she IS a miniature horse, and she’s only six days old in this picture. Don’t you just want to bring her home and see if you could housetrain her?
Speaking of which, it IS possible to housetrain a horse. You need about three years, a pretty much indestructible house, and the ability to stand outside in the rain for hours waiting for the horse to ‘go’ before you bring it inside. According to the woman who described the process on the CBC (as best as I recollect) when the light bulb finally went on the horse went, “Oh THAT’s what I have to do if I want to go inside where it’s warm. Why the hell didn’t you tell me?”
