Hardrock bear has a job


When Ann was in the hospital for the mitral valve repair, she got a balloon from her office.

Hardrock bear got the job of holding the balloon and then also the job of guarding some of the drinks.

Hardrock cafe probably doesn't sell cranberry juice or grape juice so it is a new experience for Hardrock bear.

Impress Girls w Alligator


Lots of things happen in Cook County, Illinois. Here is one that, I think, was from a police file:

A charge of possession of a dangerous animal has been filed against 43-year-old Dewayne Yarbrough of Ford Heights, who claims he kept the four-foot alligator to impress women.

Yarbrough told Cook County sheriff’s investigators he kept the alligator in a small tank and fed it only 10 live mice a month to keep it from growing too large. He said he bought the gator five years ago in Indiana for $200.

Animal control investigators did not say how they learned of the alligator, which they found in Yarbrough’s kitchen.


New story is here.That story has the gator on the right (which is not the gator in the story I think).

A similar story is here. That story has the other gator (which is not identified as being the one in Cook County).
