This is BART, the Big Animal Rescue Truck that Code 3 Associates uses as a base of operations on disaster assistance calls.  

They're down in Houston now, helping the animals affected by the wild weather.  All the help is free and funded by donations and grants.  

Give a little if you can, ok?

I went on my first DAT (disaster action team) call this week, a pre-dawn house fire in the county. Wow.

Now's a good time to send some money to relief agencies.  I don't know how the others are doing, but the American Red Cross is having to borrow millions to feed and shelter the people affected by all the recent hurricanes. I spoke with a local RC fundraiser who told me he had gotten only one call after Gustav!   Try to send some money, even if just a little.  If you don't designate where the money should go, they are able to put it where it goes the farthest.

I went by Indochine on Valtec and was surprised by these great buddhas. I don't know what that little white monster-animal is but I want one.
