Very sweet. Sorry, but those men are crazy being in there with those animals anyway. Hot day, people staring, cooped up with no where to truly stretch their legs and run or be themselves--bound to turn on someone some day.<br /><br />I don't like seeing them caged either.

So, children's books and certain graphic novels that might have color pictures on the pages will now come through as color. This could change eReaders as a whole, which is great!Anne Raineyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06110446131001665977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6927196002363676480.post-38954964124321702882010-09-09T11:26:01.255-04:002010-09-09T11:26:01.255-04:00My nook shows covers in color assuming you use the...My nook shows covers in color assuming you use the wifi and buy from B&N. I've had nothing but the best of luck with the device. It's awesome! Plus the price has gone way down. The Literati (I love that name too) looks AWESOME.

There are zoos, however, that do a really good job of giving animals roaming room. The North Carolina Zoo is huge. You have to take a train to get through it. The habitats for the animals are so big that sometimes you can't actually see the animals unless you are using a pair of binoculars. <br /><br />There are some,Tess MacKallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00066240659271231596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6927196002363676480.post-25967429325317355932010-09-09T10:46:35.628-04:002010-09-09T10:46:35.628-04:00I agree with the Lions.

Hey, do you remember that video everyone was looking at awhile back. I can't remember the name of the lion for anything, but it was the coolest thing ever. These people had it, but then as it grew, gave it to this man who had a sanctuary or something.

Their eyes, the windows to their soul, looked crushed, devoid of anything except pain and terror. It is and will continue to be, a travesty that wild animals are still kept in zoo's and circus's.
