Oh, also - WOW at Michael Jackson's death. He was such an icon from my childhood. The only other celebrity death that really hit me like this one was John Ritter. I admired them both so much growing up.

This is the story of a dog who saved a baby kangaroo after his mother was hit by a car. Poor momma kangaroo, but how adorable is this little guy? And how awesome is Rex? I'd like to think Willow would do the same, but I kinda doubt it. She's probably just bark and run away.
