Mitt Goes Home.
Does he donate his old houses to goodwill or some other charity?

The Friday Morning News.
As to the dog ownership helping reduce the physiological reaction to stress, so does daily physical touch. Oh - and orgasms, too.
So sure, I could get a dog and improve my body's stress management abilities and spend hours of my life scooping poop. But I'd much rather have sex and skip the scat.

Is Lifelogging Stupid?.
Why would someone want further proof of how truly boring and mundane their life is? The reason we often can't remember everything we did on Saturday several weeks ago: there wasn't anything worth remembering.
As to the true life-adventurers, aren't they usually looking ahead for the next adventure and not so much trying to relive the ones they've already had?

Such Nice Dogs.
re @21 - so, I usually proofread, but I was focused on other things...
"vast" not "cast" and "harm" not "ham" and that second paragraph was supposed to be quoted... I think I need another drink.

@16,18 perhaps because while other dogs do bite and harm humans, the cast majority of ham comes from pit bulls.
Together, pit bulls (22) and rottweilers (4), the number two lethal dog breed, accounted for 84% of all fatal attacks in 2011. In the 7-year period from 2005 to 2011, this same combination accounted for 74% (157) of the total recorded deaths (213).
