Boxcar Puppy: Black Lab not named hobo or tom waits (ruby's arms)

what a cute pup! what a weird story. Family sees a tiny dog riding on top of a train! Follows the train, rescued the dog. 

here is the AP story excerpt: LIBERTY, S.C. - "....Tina Parker says she and her family were at a train crossing in South Carolina on Sunday night when they saw the dog moving around on a boxcar. She called emergency services and followed the train for about six miles (9.6 kilometres).

A Norfolk Southern spokeswoman says they stopped the train. The Parker family helped firefighters find the car, and they used a ladder to reach the pup. No one knows how the dog ended up there. The dog appears healthy and happy... '

tom waits from heart attck and vine The Ultimate aching love song. once you listen, your heart change a little



Ruby's Arms
i will leave behind all of my clothes, i wore when i was with you, all i
need's my railroad boots, and my leather jacket, as i say goodbye to ruby's
arms, although my heart is breaking, i will steal away out through your
blinds, for soon you will be waking.
the morning light has washed your face, and everything is turning blue now,
hold on to your pillow case there's nothing i can do now, as i say goodbye to
ruby's arms, you'll find another soldier, and i swear to god by christmas,
there'll be someone else to hold you.
the only thing i'm taking is the scarf off of your clothesline, i'll hurry
past your chest of drawers, and your broken window chimes, as i say goodbye
i'll say goodbye, say goodbye to ruby's arms.
i'll feel my way down the darken hall, and out into the morning, the hobos
at the freightyards, have kept their fires burning, so Jesus Christ this
God damn rain, will someone put me on a train, i'll never kiss your lips again,
or break your heart, as i say goodbye i'll say goodbye, say goodbye to ruby's
arms.

Harper the Pit bull: This little deformed dog was to die in a terrible way.

Get a kleenex. Video below.

" On Aug. 31, a woman in Sanford, Fla., first encountered the little dog when she spotted a squirming garbage bag. There was a man outside the Save-A-Lot selling pit-bull puppies for Fifty bucks a pop,” Daniel explained. “This woman approached him and noticed a noise coming from a garbage bag he was holding. She asked him, ‘What’s in the bag?’ and he said, ‘Don’t worry about it.’ ”The woman pressed the issue and the man opened — and gave her — the contents of the bag. Inside was a puppy so deformed that it couldn’t walk or hold up its head. Shelter workers and veterinarians grimaced when they saw the dog and came to the same conclusion: It really should be euthanized.That’s when Daniel, a regular at the local animal shelter, stepped in. She decided to take the puppy home for one full and final day of unabashed affection. “I had to show her what it was like to be loved,” Daniel said. “I’d planned on taking her home that night, letting her sleep in bed with us, and having her humanely euthanized in the morning.” What a difference a day can make. Today, Harper is not only alive — she’s thriving. The frisky gray puppy is gaining more and more mobility each day, to the astonishment of onlookers and medical professionals.

Save the baby seals and pitbulls and humans and whales and oh, save it all...

By the way, i hope someone put that unscrupulous "salesman" out of his misery.

Y'know,

with some sensitivity training.
