Ok … I’m Gonna Tell Ya One More Time …

Monsoon's FaceLook at the picture of sweet little Monsoon.  He looks just like any other cute little bunny, eh?  Well, he certainly does to anyone that didn’t pay attention to him. Poor little Monsoon is a textbook example of neglect!

What’s Truth Got to do With It?

I mentioned Monsoon earlier … The gal calls and says, “My husband found this bunny …”.  Yeah, right.  It’s amazing how many people can’t find it to tell the truth.  Correct me if I’m wrong, but lying doesn’t change the truth, does it?
