"A herd of Buffalo got loose in Pikesville, Md., disrupting traffic and alarming homeowners before officers managed to corral them in a tennis court...
"By midday, as the last of the bison were being herded into the trailer, [the owner] had decided their fate.
"It's out of hand," he said. "They're going to the slaughterhouse, and they're going to be buffalo burgers." (from The Times)
There must be something done to stop this! Just look at how adorable they are! They never wanted to hurt anyone! They don't deserve to be McBuffalowiches! And the little one! He has so much to live for! *sob* Lil' Brudder! *sob* Why must they be so cruel to youuu? *wails*

Delivery today from B&N: Saturday by Ian McEwan (isn't that such a cool name? It's like, Australian and British and Ewan McGregor, all rolled into one! so hot), and Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World by Haruki Murakami. Ok so I probably won't get to them til summer, but, new books! whee! I love their smell! And I like how at the end of hardcovers, they have a little note saying what font they used. That, if you're keeping track, is a big +1 for typography (which probably brings their score to 4).
