USPS Raises Rates for Domestic Doggy Mail
The Unites States Postal Service has announced a rate hike for domestic dog mailing services. The new rate for shipping a 15 lbs. dog will be $11.25 or approximately 25 domestic stamps. Anything over that weight will charged at $0.90/lbs. The new rates will go into effect May 1.
“In order to raise the necessary funds to keep the USPS operating in FY2012, the price increase for domestic doggy mail is necessary,” said a press release issued from the office of Postmaster General, Patrick Donahoe. Donahoe’s office declined to comment for this report.

Bunny Duo to Brave Elements for The Weather Channel Gig
A new duo of meteorologist bunnies, Hopper and Claude, will be braving extreme weather in a new gig for the The Weather Channel, starting this spring. The pair will be sent on assignment during severe storms, spelling the much overworked Jim Cantore and allowing him to report from a studio for at least part of the upcoming hurricane season. The photo above is a still image taken from a demo reel the two Texas-natives apparently sent to The Weather Channel. It was shot using a very large fan.
