Jan 10, 2010: Oscar Goes 'Round the World
Not Oscar the Grouch, Oscar the dog, went around the World with Joanne Lefson.
And she loved it, see that smile. Quote:
I have no idea how they did the quarantine/shots/immigration hassle in that time? The paper's headline said 80 days, but then the list the countries by month, May through December. Literary license I guess. Lot's of pictures of Oscar in front of various tourists spots, at the link.

It's a conspiracy! How did you know I picked up a lost, frightened, and confused puppy yesterday? And 'coincidentally' you post a IotD w/a 'stray dog does good' theme. (We can't keep her but are keeping her safe until her owners can be located.) I wonder how they managed the quarantine laws, too, but it's a great story and the photos are wonderful.

Impressive journey, but a dangerous one I presume.

That woman sold her house, quit her job (I assume), and then spent the money from the sale on a vacation with her dog? Did she give any thought to what happens after the vacation is over? She returns to her country unemployed and homeless.
I hate to sound like the wet blanket here, but somebody needs to raise money to send this poor woman to some kind of mental evaluation and counseling. |

Doesn't this qualify her to be a commentator on FOX, or run for Parliament?

It says she sold her home to fund the trip. The article did not give other details about the status of her bank account. Her financial situation is clearly not the point anyway. You guys always ruin stuff with logic.

homeless, happy, and humble. Not to mention answering the final question, so what did you do with your life?

If you ask me, she is well on her way to making her pop culture mark on the world, and in today's shallow, vapid society, that's all she needs to achieve.

When she gets back homeless and hungry.... what is that about 30 pounds of meat dressed out?
I gotta admit that is one cute, good looking, photogenic mutt. |

I think she did it just to get her pic on the Cellar.

I love the pic with her and Oscar on the camel.
