PBS is on fire tonight. First, an extraordinary NOVA about the epigenome, and then Cheney’s Law, a horrifying look at how the VP has abused executive privilege to the detriment of Americans and innocents world wide.

Former Phone Chief Says Spy Agency Sought Surveillance Help Before 9/11

Tootie was bitten at dog camp by a Weineramer. Apparently she was just standing there when the dog took a big chunk out of the fleshy part of her shoulder. There is a deep puncture wound and a large piece of her skin missing. Poor baby. We have to hold her down and squirt antibiotics in the hole and peroxide her up. Cooper came back with some sort of crusty hot spot, too, though it was not caused by a bite.

The bad dog was kicked out of the pet farm and sent to doggie jail (regular kennel). Tootie’s bite is infected, but she seems fine. She shimmied up a five foot wooden gate to get to us, and she barely flinched when we dressed her wound, so she’s cool. Hopefully she’ll have a war scar to carry around with her.
