I'm really sad to hear Frank Frazetta is gone. He created my favorite painting: http://animeonly.org/albums/DESIM/DarTinka/Fantasy-Art-Frank-Frazetta/frank_frazetta_wolfmoon.jpg
It never ceases to amaze me how well people can bounce back from such horrors and be all the stronger for it. Every time I read about something like this I ask myself if I'd be able to recover from that and still be forgiving and hopeful. I always wind up thinking, "No, that would break me for good."
"Trust me, cat bites can definitely get infected..."
Oh yeah. A cat I was trying to rescue got frightened, clawed up my face and chomped my finger so hard I bled like crazy. Two days later (despite some heavy-duty peroxide and Neosporin treatment) I was at the doc with such a swollen and infected finger I had to have IV antibiotics (7 days in a row) rabies shots, tetanus shots, a splint AND they insisted on x-rays to make sure my finger wasn't broken even though I told them it was a CAT bite!
I still have small scars on my chin and finger 8 years later. It would have been a lot worse if it hadn't been winter in Michigan when it happened, it was cold and I had on a heavy coat that protected my arms and chest.
Awww...if every weird and antiquated old law were to be taken off the books everywhere, we won't have any more funny articles about weird and antiquated old laws to laugh at! :(
This is SO not child abuse. When you've got people out there who beat, starve or kill their kids it's ridiculous to say this kid is being abused. I hate how parents today are "damned if you do, damned if you don't" when it comes to disciplining their kids. If you're thinking this punishment is wrong, but you turn around and complain about someone else's kids for being unruly you really need to reconsider what you believe!
I wish I could remember who said, "Experience is a hard teacher. She gives the test first and the lesson afterward."

Oh what I would give to hear the recording of THAT call!
