I’d always thought dogs could see only black and white. Not true, apparently. They can see color, though they don’t see the range or brightness of colors that we see. This page offers a cool comparison of what dogs see compared to humans.
After persistent recommendations by my Mad Pig brother, I decided to tell Tivo to fetch me a few episodes of Father Ted on BBC America. I’m hooked. Great show that takes aim at everything. I’ve now set up a season pass on Tivo (that’s a feature that records all episodes of a given show, regardless of what time they air). If you like British comedy, give Father Ted a shot.
Conan O’Brien’s site has a cool feature called “If they Mated,” which predicts the results of certain celebrity pairings. Sometimes funny. Sometimes terrifying. Always cause for concern.
