"Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names." - John F. Kennedy

A just published study finds that dog people and cat people have different personalities.
Doh!
There's a reason for the phrase, "crazy cat lady."

In the "If this weren't the govt. I wouldn't believe it" category...
AZ used to be the most common port of entry for illegal immigrants from the south but, post-SB1070, the state is viewed as inhospitable to those immigrants. So Texas is now the busiest entry point, with so many crossing there that the Texas offices of ICE, the federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, are overwhelmed.
Records show that over the Memorial Day weekend ICE put over 400 illegal immigrants on planes, flew them to Tucson, and then dropped them off at the Greyhound Bus station. With a sack lunch.

The ICE staff here processed them. That means their names were written down and they were told to report to the ICE offices at their final destination for registration within 15 days.
(in Spanish:) "Yes, sir. I'll be sure to do that!"

I don't even know what to say. This makes NO sense to me. Any part of it.

But wait! There's more!
This wasn't a one-time - or one weekend - thing. They apparently have been doing this on a regular basis and last weekend was just unusually busy.

I watched a program on National Geographic tonight about unusual predators. One was a small spider that preys on a particular kind of ant and does so in a unique way. The black spider walks in among the ants pretending to be one of them, and does so by using only six of its eight legs, waving the front two like they're antennae. If ants do approach the spider it taps their antennae with her front legs, mimicking their normal interactions.
"OK, that guy's a little weird, and awfully small, but I guess he's one of us."
If the spider's ruse fails the much bigger ants will attack and kill him, so getting it right is more than just successful hunting, it's a life-or-death tactic.

Stories like that make me wonder: if the spider learned that tactic through evolutionary development, how'd he eat before he figured it out? The species should have died of starvation. If they had another means of getting food why did they need to develop this one?
