More Rabbit Problems Pt 2


A week ago I posted the story and pics of baby rabbits setting up shop in my front yard and landscaping. As of today, it looks like they are ready to leave! I came home Wednesday, looked in the nest, and saw a couple of eyes, this time with hair on the head and body, staring back at me (pics 1 and 2). Today, the baby bunnies were out and taking their first steps when I came home. I probably scared the you know what out of them. But hey, they decided to set up right next to where I park the car! Enjoy the pics and video!


Three rabbits in the nest, one staring back. Now about 10 days old.


Bunnies have turned their backs..all three together. You can see two of them pretty well.

...and tries to hide from the camera, and the crazy man taking the pics.
There are two rabbits back to back (check the rear legs on left)

Twitterpated!!


Sorry Thumpber, but Twitterpated has a whole new meaning. By now you've probably created an account and started following some users. You may have even sent a few tweets out into the world, but you still don't get it, and you're ready to dismiss Twitter for good. Here's a great article from Marketwatch's Amy Hoak on why Twitter is the real deal, especially for businesses.

More Rabbit Problems For Rob

Saturday morning I'm doing some weeding in the front yard, and I see a bunch of bunny fur under one of our box woods. Looking closer, I pull back some of the fur, which was mixed with a little grass that had been pulled out of what is now a 6 inch round bare patch on my lawn, to see three new born baby bunnies. These rabbits must be less than three days old, as it was 3 days ago that I noticed the bare patch on the lawn looking like a mini crop circle.
I immediately called Gina Browning at the SPCA. Her advice? Leave them. They will be up and around in three weeks. And in return for using my lawn as an incubator, next Spring they will eat everything I plant! Check out the pics...and click on them for bigger views. Animal nature is pretty amazing. We will no doubt be talking about this on our SPCA segment Wednesday morning at 8:40.

While doing some research for the morning show (Yes, we actually do plan out some of what we do!), I came across a pretty neat website dedicated to TV ratings, the business side of what's happening with your favorite shows, etc. Check out James Hibbard's The Live Feed here.

Boss' New Drummer

With Max Weinberg following Conan to L.A., Bruce Springsteen has had to get a new drummer...Max's son Jay! Read about it here, and check out the photo below. Jay almost has the same look Garry Tallent, Bruce's bassist, had in the early 70's on the back cover of The Wild, The Innocent, and The E Street Shuffle!
