I was flicking through the internet k-hole again tonight and came across this, for some reason the smiles really made me feel good so I thought I'd share it

e: if those smiles don't make you smile then just try not to smile at this picture

This is a cute picture, but I'm pretty sure it's from the safari cruise ride at Disneyland.

Eldad's done it again. He rescues another dog, sick and abandoned on the streets and turns her life around.

Aw, those fat little puppies :3: and such an ingenious way of getting the mama to lead them there, that was cool and I would never have thought to do that.

That was a neat trick, those pups look pretty for being strays.

Also accidentally clicked on one of the suggested videos and uhh, yea. Be careful what you click on, it was sweat and endearing but also massively depressing. :smith:

I tend to talk to the poor animals in these things then end up terribly weepy even though I know they are transformation videos. Animals wreck me, I can't explain why. Like those returning servicemen videos, the kid ones are cute but the ones with the dogs losing it and being so drat happy that their owner is back just kill me.

It was great to see the tiger carry the pumpkin in its mouth, then drop it in the water -- I regularly find toys in my cat's water dish and now I know where she got this behavior.

The sixth annual Cinderella Ball is held at the Willard InterContinental Hotel for local students with life-threatening illnesses or disabilities.




quote:

Each year, the House Inc. puts on the Cinderella Ball to give children with disabilities and life threatening illnesses an opportunity to dance the night away and gain inspiration to keep moving forward.

“We wanted to provide an opportunity to create some moments,” Executive Director of the House Inc. Todd McCormick tells Townhall. "In life we remember moments not days."

Children and their parents were greeted at the doors by a salute from the United States Marine Corps as men and women stationed at Quantico Marine Base in lined the red carpet in full uniform. McCormick says by having the marines give families a formal welcome upon entering the hotel, they are able to receive the highest honor possible.

General Manager of the Willard Hotel Jim Veil says he has hosted Kings, Presidents and diplomats, but that the Cinderella Ball is the most special event of the year.

I shouldn't watch videos like this, I want a giant housecat as is and this just makes me go "GIANT KITTIES I WANT ONE," even though I know large, undomesticated cats make for horrible and dangerous pets.

Its always nice to see reminders that there's not so much difference between big cats and housecats. Except, you know, thousands of years of domestication and having the ability to kill me at a whim.
