You thought you had fun with my previous blog watching monkeys riding dogs? Well, wait until you see what they are doing in New Zealand… dogs are actually driving cars! And I think they drive better than most of us? What do you think? Take a look at this video and you decide…

You can teach dogs to do all kinds of things with enough patience. I love seeing how they teach helper dogs to assist with the disabled, that’s more than a trick – that’s saving a life. I remember seeing a new story where dogs were making copies, helping people get dressed, and even helping one guy make lunch!
We always had a dog growing up and they really can do a lot with the proper training. It’s up to the owner to make it happen… and well, in New Zealand, it looks like they’ve decided to have them drive cars!
I wonder how high car insurance rates are for these canine drivers?
Recently, I was flipping through some new digital cable channels when I came upon one with a very unique newscast. However, what was presented on screen was not totally the truth. Take a look at this video and you’ll see what I mean!

Newsrooms have to be careful about what they put in the teleprompter. Little errors like this can turn into a big error if they start to question someone’s credibility or flat out make a false accusation. They were lucky it was only a simple slip of the tongue by saying “I asked…” but this very easily could have ballooned up into a much more serious issue.
With web cameras, smart phones, and Youtube in this day and age — things like this are going to get caught.
