Low Fives: 02/01/09
Low fives this week was like shooting a fish in a barrel:
- If you ever wondered where the dogs they sell on the internet come from, just read this story. 600 dogs seized, 80% of them are pregnant. You do the math.
- “Jessica Simpon’s a bigger star than ever.” God, I can’t believe that this story won’t die. And perhaps this is a bit snarky, but those high waisted jeans are the real travesty in this story.
- I watched Al Gore testify about global warming before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on CNN. I really hope they are listening.
- I’m sorry to all you Croc lovers, but this has crossed the line.
- If you didn’t see him in his full media blitz, Rod Blagojevich compared his imprisonment to the jail terms of Mandela, Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. Pathetic.
Just in case you wondered what Jessica Simpson looked like before the hoopla, look here. I was going to embed her Youtube video, but it now mysteriously says “embedding disabled by request.” Fascinating.
Here’s a video of some puppies and a cat instead:

Shameless!
In the interest of full disclosure, please note that product links redirecting you to other sites such as Amazon
, BlueHost, Freshbooks and OpenSky may take you a purchase page of a company where I am a member of an affiliate program. As a result, I will often get a small percentage of the revenue or a commission off of something you have purchased. I am not otherwise paid to link to these sites, nor do I link to any products that I don't actually use or covet in real life. On the rare occasion I accept payment to review a product, it will be duly noted in its associated post.
Have no fear - you are under no obligation to buy anything to get the full enjoyment of this site. We can still be friends even if you never click on an affiliate link. Rest assured, this is all low pressure. I will never show up at your door with tiny vials of Avon perfume or trial jars of pearl cream to entice you. That said, I do truly appreciate when you do purchase something from a linked site - it all helps to keep the lights on and a roof over our heads.

Dog bed: Wow.
Jessica Simpson: Everyone get over it already, right?
Thank you for the puppies. That made me happy.
Have a good week!

High five on the croc thing. Jessica Simpson could at least have the decency to change her first name as I too am a Jessica and I’m tired of her giving us a bad rep for horrible fashion sense amongst other things. And yeah, toss the belt sister.
Puppies trump Jessica Simpson every day of the week in my book. I will say though, that cat looked a little on the heavy side =)
