    This is a hoax Andy. A couple of giveaways. Notice at the bottom of each page where they give phone numbers. The voice phone number has wierd characters so that you cannot call anyone. Only the fax has a legible number. If this is a legitimate business, why do they make it difficult for you to call them?

    Second, in the FAQ page, there is a question about dog fights, and the answer they give is:

    "My dog is very high strung and often gets into fights with other dogs. I can control this now, but what happens when fights break out on the island?Fights break out occassionally, but this is not a real issue, because eventually, the dogs learn to get along. Every now and then some dogs gang up and kill and then eat another dog, but this is just natural, and it's okay for it to happen now and then, but normally this is not the case."Oh, ok, it's possible that if I send my dog to this place, it could get eaten by other dogs. So, we as consumers are supposed to be encouraged by this?

    This is a hoax

The Brothers Grimm -- This was an OK fantasy movie, moving at a good pace, with the appropriate level of action and humour. The special effects were well done -- and so was the cinematography. If you missed it in the theatre, you didn't miss much however. You can catch it on DVD. The Aristocrats -- This is a movie about a joke. One joke. That's it. The delivery however -- now that was something else. The delivery was sick, sick, sick. This is an in-joke for comedians that have been numbed by jokes for us regular folk. The only thi...
