Jeff Guidry and Freedom

This is really a remarkable story, of two friends saving each other’s lives.

Thanks to Dave Roycroft for sending it along.

Damn, it’s hard to work when fluid is gathering in one’s eyes. Something must have got caught in there.

Stephanie, yes!!!  I cried, too! 

My stray cat came to me back when my teenage daughter ran away, and I am convinced it wasn’t -just- to eat (because he climbed right into my lap afterwards!) but because he “knew” I needed comfort.  I will always believe animals know certain things about human moods that we aren’t aware we express; the way they can discern menace or fear, for instance, they can also *feel* when we need comfort and friendship. 

PS:  Suspiciously religious references to “life force” and “soul” in the article, though… don’t know if the Church of Atheism allows that, Chris.  Better add: “Spiritually-based opinions expressed in this article do not necessarily reflect…” etc, or you could be facing excommunication!  :P
