Project Insomnia

Project Insomnia is many things, but in this context it is simply a "braindump" of whatever I happen to be thinking/reading/watching/doing at the moment. Parental guidance suggested.

Mean people suck

This AP article tells the sad story of a woman whose dogs escaped from her back yard a couple of weeks ago.
Niki Karanastasis was ecstatic when she found Bella at the Humane Society, but she was devastated to learn that her 2-year-old dog had been adopted by a new owner just hours earlier.

Humane Society officials said their hands are tied because they're required to put stray dogs up for adoption five days after they're picked up if they don't have ID tags. Tagged animals are held for 10 days, but Bella didn't have one.
She offered to buy the other party a new dog, but was turned down. The AP article doesn't identify the person who adopted the dog, which I think is too bad. It would be easier to shame this person into releasing the dog back to its rightful owner if her name was known.
