Owl Sick of Tootsie Roll Pop Queries
Owl Sick of Tootsie Roll Pop Queries
“Bernard would like to make it very clear that he has no idea how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll Pop,” said press agent Adam Danovic on a media call this morning. "He would thank all children and woodland creatures to stop asking him.“
According to Danovic, Bernard, a local owl, has been bothered by the "Tootsie Roll” questions for years. "Ever since that damnable commercial came out in the 1980s, my client has been asked that question by every kid and turtle in the tri-state area,“ said Danovic by email.
When asked how many licks does it take to get to the center, Danovic responded tersely: "The world may never know.”

Dogs Tie the Knot in Most Expensive Pet Wedding Ever
Dogs Tie the Knot in Most Expensive Pet Wedding Ever
Baby Hope Diamond of New York, NY and Chilly Pasternak of Richmond, VA were wed on Thursday evening at a lavish event in New York City. The $150,000 black-tie affair, which was held at the swanky Jumeirah Essex House hotel, set a Guinness World Record for “most expensive pet wedding” and included over-the-top indulgences like a $6,000 wedding dress, a $15,000 seven-piece orchestra and $5,000 worth of gourmet sushi. The wedding was officiated by celebrity canine puppet, Triumph the Insult Comic Dog.
Why go through such trouble and fabulous expense to wed a pair of pooches? Baby Hope and Chilly were doing it all for charity. Everything at the wedding was donated, including a pet food buffet from a company owned by Ellen DeGeneres, and proceeds from the $250 tickets went directly to the Humane Society of New York.
The wedding, which was the brainchild of Wendy Diamond, founder of Animal Fair magazine, was originally supposed to feature her dog Lucky, herself a Guiness record holder for most photos by a dog with celebrities. However, after the 15-year-old lucky died of cancer last month, Diamond decided that the show must go on with Baby Hope in her place.
Word on the street is that the thoughtful bride also donated her gifts to the cause.

Genius Cats Solve Rubik’s Cube in 15 Seconds
Edna and Dorothy don’t mess around when it comes to “the cube.” The two are Rubik’s Cube champions and currently hold a feline world record for time to solve. At a recently exhibition on San Bernardino, CA, the pair matched their record-setting 15 seconds to solve.
“I’m amazed that they can turn the sides with their paws, let alone get all the colors to match,” said one event attendee in disbelief.
