I mentioned my near-miss run-in with the doggie puke the other day. Turns out this was not an isolated incident, as this morning Hudson the wonder dog again demonstrated the miracle of reverse peristalsis. I don't think she's actually sick as much as it looks like she's not reacting well to a recent change in her dry food. You see the last time I was at the petatorium, I accidentally picked out the wrong variety, which seems to be upsetting her tummy, the Alanis-style irony here is that the offending food is this oatmeal based food intended for sensitive stomachs (seriously). Sometimes you just can't win.

According to this article:

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&ncid=578&e=1&cid=578&u=/nm/20030311/ts_nm/iraq_usa_bomb_dc

it wasn't that big of a deal - probably because they weren't going to let anybody get anywhere near the thing.

"It looked like a white mushroom cloud, almost like cotton or smoke you'd see from a fire, kind of billowy," said base spokeswoman Karen Roganov, who watched from a rooftop 30 miles away. "We did not feel anything. We saw the cloud and several seconds later we heard a boom."

Base officials warned residents in neighboring communities to expect a loud noise when the bomb was dropped. But police in Pensacola, about 30 miles away, said they heard nothing when the bomb fell and were unaware the test was completed.

Of course I could be wrong... but really, what are the chances of that happening twice?
