That cat looked totally friendly too. I could maybe see if the cat bit her or something, but she pretty much lured the cat over and started petting it. What the heck lady!?

I would love to hear that her identity was discovered and hear some creative ways of making her pay.

I have a feeling she'll be caught; even if someone who knows her refuses to turn her in (which would be stupid, IMO), someone will probably recognize her sooner or later and say "hey, isn't that the lady on the internet vid who dumped a cat in a trash can?" hope she's found soon.

Not to diverge from the cat subject, but I have a school-related question for you college goers out there, and even those of you who are no longer in school. Given the ridiculous prices some school co-ops ask for textbooks, have any of you ever rented a textbook from an online distributor? If not, does it sound like a plausible idea, or a bad one? My university is asking over $100 for one of my textbooks (which is about typical, but makes my bank account scream) but I can rent it from an online "library" (for lack of a better term) for $40, with a due date after the semester ends. Good? Bad? Thoughts?

Never heard of renting books before. Seems like it would be fine. Text books were always pretty ridiculous. I wonder when the college system will lose its strangle hold on people wallets. I mean it's obvious that they can do things cheaper, but for now they have the prestige and the connections in the job market.

Eventually I think they'll run into the same penny pinching of any other industry. Seems like the price gouging can't last forever can it?

That would make a good Doctor Who episode. "Revenge of the Cat People".

Ponder... at what point do you decide a job is just not worth it ?

Ponder Answer: It would take a lot. I don't know what it is about my personality but I don't like to give up on things. I like to work through the issues and hope that something better is around the corner. In college I never dropped a course. I've never really quit a job. I mean I went to college and had to stop my high school jobs, but I don't really consider that quitting as much as moving. It's just not in my nature to give up.


As for the cat lady. She thought it would be funny!?! What kind of sick person finds that funny? I don't know what the punishment for animal cruelty is but they should give her the max penalty.

"It's only a cat." Really?

*Maybe* the cat would have been able to wriggle out if it was one of those little office trash cans or a kitchen trash can, which it's more likely to crawl into on its own, but a large, heavy street side bin? Not so much.

At least they caught her. %#*$&@!
