Will I be accused of plagiarism?

When I looked at the headlines on the MSNBC website this morning, I was amazed to find that someone else had used the phrase "You go, girl!" to head their write up of the Preakness Stakes; then on The Bloodhorse website I saw "Mine That Bird proves Derby no 'fluke'." Gee, I guess I know how to use all of the current buzz phrases! Who'd'a thunk?

The kits seem to be happy to be back at our place - especially in that I let them roam most of yesterday afternoon and evening, even though they spent most of their time on the patio. The management appears to have fixed the sprinkler system while we were gone - it seemed to run without trouble most of yesterday afternoon. But, somehow, I had forgotten how much Lovey adores wet earth... I got covered with muddy tracks, and, at one point in time, I looked out to see her happily sitting in the direct fall of water, while digging in the ground. I can't complain - I did the same things at her age. Banichi has snuggled close to me each night since we've been home, which makes me wonder if his previous owners didn't take him on a vacation before abandoning him...

A mountain lion took another little terrier-mix dog for it's dinner last week; the owners and neighbors are complaining about not feeling safe. They want the DoW to kill anything they deem dangerous; they are the people who chose to live in the foothills area, knowing full well that it is the territory of natural wildlife. They purchased homes and/or built their homes there... what part of wild do they not understand in the word "wildlife"? - They want to be close to nature and then they complain when it rears its (ugly?) head! ... A Yorkshire terrier just south of here (a couple of miles) was bitten by a rattlesnake and passed away. So word has been spread to keep a sharp look-out on your pets and children. ... A local filmed a wonderful video of a bear attacking a "bear-proof" garbage can in the foothills; it shows the bear trying to tear the can open, throwing the can around, and finally, the bear jumps onto the overturned can and jumps and pounds on it for about 5 minutes. The garbage can won. The bear finally wandered away. ... And at a PetSmart in the Denver metro area, there is plenty of trouble. A groomer (who is also the manager of the grooming area) placed a Yorkie on the table to be groomed, then stepped away to answer the phone; a pit bull in an unlocked cage bumped his door open, grabbed and killed the Yorkie. The horrified owners got the call that their beloved pet was DOA at the closest vet office. Then stuff really hit the fan when it was revealed that the groomer was the pit bull's owner and she has received numerous citations regarding her aggressive pet. Both the groomer and PetSmart are facing lawsuits.
