This woman rescued this dog and saved his life. Of course, he can’t talk…but this picture says it ALL! Dog Embraces Rescue Worker Who Saved Him Even dogs have their way of saying ‘thank you’….. via THG You often hear anecdotes of animals being able to experience and express humanlike emotions, and we sometimes see signs of this in our own pets. This would be one of those times. Eva Armstrong, a director of Badass Brooklyn Animal Rescue, heads a volunteer-run rescue group that has saved more than 800 dogs to date. On a recent trip to a high-kill “shelter” in Alabama, volunteers rescued a dachshund they named Captain Morgan because he had only one eye. The night he was rescued, Captain Morgan slept at the foot of Eva’s hotel bed. She took care of him until he was adopted by a family months later. Then, last week, Badass Brooklyn Animal Rescue held a “reunion” where Captain Morgan and Armstrong were reunited … and the photo says it all. A picture of the two of them in a warm embrace quickly went viral. Captain Morgan, now called Cappy by his adopted family, rests his head on Armstrong’s shoulder, seeming to smile as if this is the best moment ever. Too cute! How would you caption this ?

Dear Bossip , I am currently in a loving relationship with my high school sweetheart. We are both 25-years old and I am expecting a baby girl this month. We broke up in 2007 when he wanted to move to GA and I wanted to stay in NY and finish college. However, we reunited in 2011. During the time we were not together he was a dating a girl who manipulated him into believing she was pregnant with his child. Once the child was a year old a DNA test was done and it proved that he was not the child’s father. Yet, my boyfriend is still attached to the child and still treats him as his own. In addition, he is looking at our child as his second child. My boyfriend also wants to fight for full custody of this child so that he can live with us. I completely understand his attachment to the child and I support him being in the child’s life, but I do not feel like it is fair for the child to move in with us. This will be my first baby and I will be forced to be a mom and a stepmother all in one shot. The child is currently living happy and well with his great grandmother, but my boyfriend insists that the child should be with him. I don’t even know if it is possible for him to gain full custody being that he is not the child’s biological father. Also, I believe the child’s mother has a problem with me being pregnant. I can’t even wrap my mind around why her and her family is happy with my boyfriend pretending to be this child’s father. I have been keeping my opinion to myself and just being as supportive as possible, but I don’t believe that is the best thing to do. A social worker recently told me I should convince my boyfriend to get counseling to help him learn to let go of the child. I am just very confused about what to do and I do not want to be labeled the bad guy. I just want me and my boyfriend to be happy. I would love to hear your opinion on the situation. Thank you very much for your time. – Not His Child Dear Ms. Not His Child , What the??? I mean I’m all for men stepping up and being a good dude, especially a man who steps up to the plate for a child he didn’t know about, but, a child that is not even his, and he wants to seek full custody of this child, and he’s not even with the mother of the child?!? That is quite bizarre and strange. Let’s consider perhaps it’s because the child is a male child and he’s developed both an emotional and mental bond with the child. Maybe he feels he can do more for the child than the mother, and the father. And, if the father isn’t present in the child’s life he may feel some guilt with the child being without a father. And, during the relationship he had with the mother and with her family he probably built an emotional bond with them, and may feel sorry for the mother because she may not have the support system, or wherewithal to care for the child as a single parent. Regardless, however, I agree with the social worker that he should receive counseling to get to the root of his connection with the child, and why he feels the need to seek full custody of a child that is not his. And, the fact you are pregnant, and he is not acknowledging your child as his first child. Something is really off about this. It sounds as if he hasn’t connected with his own first child in such a way that he has with this other child. But, your child hasn’t been born as of yet, so you don’t know what bond may occur when your child is born, and what feelings he may develop once your child is in his arms, and a part of your life. Things may drastically change. But, I’m more concerned that you haven’t expressed your feelings around this matter with him. You say you don’t want to be the bad guy, and you’ve kept your opinions to yourself, as well as tried to be supportive of him and this situation. Uhm, sweetie, this is a contradiction of what you really feel, and thus, I imagine you have garnered some resentment toward the child, and this situation. If you don’t speak up and speak your truth, then you will grow angry, and bitter. If you’re not feeling it, and it makes you uncomfortable, then speak up! You won’t be bad guy for speaking your truth. If everyone around him is hyping him up to believe he can gain full custody of this child, then they are all lying to him. It will crush him when he goes to court and the judge tells him the truth. He may go into a tailspin of depression, and anger, and he may even become distant with you. We don’t know what the real damage this may do to him, so it’s best that someone be honest with him, and don’t contribute to this pipe dream he has. And, what I know for sure is that you are upset and hurt that your man is considering your child his second child, and the other child as his first. You’re hurting and upset because you don’t know why he is claiming a child that is not even his, and he is not even acknowledging your child as his first child. You’re saying to yourself, “How dare he think of our child as his second child? I’m carrying his baby, she didn’t! I’m not deceiving him, she did! Why hasn’t he connected with me like he did with her?” Those are the underlying comments and statements you’re saying to yourself. Boo! I peeped your letter and what you’re really saying! So, stop playing the supportive and loving girlfriend who is trying to be there for her man, and be real about your feelings and emotions. You don’t think it’s fair, and you don’t appreciate not being acknowledged, especially your first child with him. You don’t want this other child in your home, and you want to move on with your life with your boyfriend, be a family, and one day get married. You want this other woman out of your life and nothing to do with her, because if he gets full custody of the child then she will forever be in your life, and you don’t want a reminder of her in your life. You just want to move on! That is the truth of what’s going on! Now, if you keep your feelings bottled up, and you don’t say anything, then one day you’re going to snap, and it won’t be pretty. You’re going to say some things, and he’ll say some things, and then your relationship will be over. And, it’s all because you refused to speak up and be honest about your feelings and this situation. And, on the real, I don’t think he can legally seek full custody of the child that is not his. The courts will seek out the father of the child first before they hand over the child to your boyfriend. And, even if the mother gives up custody of the child, the courts will still seek out the father. He has not legal claim or stake into gaining custody of the child. So, it’s time to get real and be real. I suggest meeting with the social worker, and let them speak with your boyfriend about his desires to pursue legal custody of the child. The social worker can be real with him about his options, and share with him how they may be unrealistic. Also, ask the social worker to recommend a counselor that your boyfriend can speak with about this emotional and mental bond he’s developed for this child. The counselor can help him get to the bottom of his feelings, and what’s really going on beneath all of this. Again, he may feel guilty and want to do for the child, and may feel the mother is no position to care for the child. And, perhaps he desperately wants to be a father, and since your child has not been born yet he hasn’t that the opportunity to develop a bond or relationship with his own child. Maybe this will happen when your child arrives, and he may move on from his delusions of seeking custody of the other child. However, to err on the side of caution, it’s best to seek counseling and have him get to the bottom of his desires, and what is driving him.

Anyway, I think April and I should become Twitter girlfriend and boyfriend since my relationship with Nikki Leigh is not working out as I planned. So fellas, put in a good word for me here .
Suicide is never the way to go. Dick Trickle Commits Suicide According to The National Enquirer NASCAR driver DICK TRICKLE has killed himself with a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The Lincoln County Sheriff’s Department in North Carolina confirmed the news on Thursday after Trickle called the Lincoln County Communications Center and said that “there would be a dead body and it would be his,” WSOC-TV reported. Trickle reportedly took his life at 12:02 p.m. at the Forest Lawn Cemetery and his body was found by workers near his pickup truck after calls back to him went unanswered, RadarOnline noted. The Wisconsin native raced for 24 years, logging logged more than one million laps in more than 2,200 races and is believed to have won over 1,200 feature races. He was billed as the win-ingest short track driver in history. Trickle’s career highlights include racing to 67 wins in 1972, winning seven ARTGO Championships in nine years between 1979 to 1987 and was 1989 NASCAR Rookie of the Year. Trickle was nicknamed the “White Knight” as referenced by his sponsored SuperAmerica paint scheme, when he raced in Wisconsin. “I just read about Dick Trickle, met him during my season doing IROC series. He was a true Racer and will be missed. #RIP,” Triple Crown Champion JJ Yeley tweeted. NASCAR Nationwide Series driver Brian Scott tweeted, “RIP Dick Trickle. Thoughts and prayers to his family and friends.” “Thoughts and prayers to the Dick Trickle family,” NASCAR Camping World Truck Series driver Max Gresham echoed. R.I.P. Getty
Tommy Chong wants to legalize marijuana. Knock us over with a feather. The comedian feels that pot hasn’t been legalized is no laughing matter. With the government standing to earn money off it, what’s the holdup? Chong tells The Philadelphia Daily News in an interview: “Look at the situation we’re in now. Sequesters. Cuts. Everything across the board. Now, the government is tapped into the biggest cash crop in the world.” “There’s little manufacturing cost. You don’t have to do anything except watch it grow and get a couple of hippies to cut it and then put it in a bag.” “Hemp itself is going to save the world .” Chong echoed similar sentiments in an interview with IFC, saying the U.S. is missing out on “a ton of money” because marijuana isn’t legal nationwide: “It’s a scam, see. They started the DEA, Nixon started it with an executive order, and they’ve spent some trillions of dollars fighting the weed and then haven’t even made a dent.” “All they did [is spread it], and they affected the whole world. The whole world’s been upset. That’s one of the reasons we have wars,” he went on. “These alcohol-fueled, fear-fueled, oil-based wars. If you let the potheads take over, which we’re doing, we’re the meek that will inherit the world.” That’s one way to look at it. What do you think? Legalize weed? Yes No Maybe View Poll »

My name is Nena, I’m 16 years old and I’m from Denmark . I’ve been a Belieber since January 2010. I’ve never thought that I was going to write my own Bieber experience, but here it goes. It all started in June 2012, when the tickets for Justin Bieber’s concert in Denmark went on sale. I really wanted to get the best seats to the show and also meet and greet tickets, so I bought a membership on Bieberfever. Unfortunately the meet and greet tickets weren’t on sale during the pre-sale, so I didn’t get them. Then the day the official sale started I wasn’t fast enough to buy the meet and greet tickets. I was really down about it, but Justin Bieber told us all to never say never and believe , but at the time, I found it difficult because we were 50,000 people going to the concert in Denmark. The chances of winning meet and greet seemed really small. The concert was on April 20th, 2013 and the day before April 19th I got an e-mail from Bieberfever saying that I FREAKING WON MEET AND GREET. I was so happy and couldn’t believe that after 3 and a half years of being a belieber I was going to get a picture with my biggest idol. The day of, about 4:45 p.m. on April 20th, Ryan from the crew came out to all us meet and greeters and got us into the building. It happened really fast and it was so surreal. I didn’t knew what to expect, but suddenly I was standing in the same room as Justin and somehow no one stood on the right side of him so I quickly went over to him. He smiled big at me with his teeth. I put my arm around him and he did the same thing with me. I remember me cuddling him on the shoulder blade and just smiling really big into the camera. After that I cried for like 20 minutes because I was so happy and because I was in shock I guess. Then the concert started and he was so amazing and it was 100% the best day of my life, no doubt about that! -@NENAjustNENA Read more: My name is Nena, I’m 16 years old and I’m from…
I’ve been reading other Bieber experiences for over 2 years and I never thought something worthy of posting on here would ever happen to me. My name’s Kaidy, I’m 16 and I’m from Estonia. I met Justin on 26th April 2013 and it all still feels like a dream. When I found out Justin was going to Finland it was one of the best days in my life because he was finally coming somewhere near me and I honestly thought I wasn’t going to see him anytime soon. My parents weren’t thrilled about paying for the M&G so I said I’d buy it with my birthday money. The day of the meet and greet I just remember when the security guy opened the black curtain a little bit when Justin got there and I saw my idol for the first time ever. He had the biggest smile on his face. I’ll probably have this image in my head for like ever. I was so happy that he looked so happy. I really hoped that he would wear a tank top or a vest at the M&G so I could see his arms haha and he was wearing a DENIM VEST! I mean what else could someone ask for? He wore sunglasses though and I was a bit disappointed but by the time it was my turn, he had taken them off. The line went by really fast because it was just like, “next next next,” and it was almost my turn. I put my phone in my pocket so the camera was out and recorded it. Without this video proof and the picture, I probably still wouldn’t think all of this was real. When the girl before me was getting her picture taken and then when I walked to Justin, he smiled and his eyes sparkled. He looked so perfect that I was afraid to even get too close to him because he looked like a porcelain doll. I was almost next to him and all I was thinking was ‘Omg I have to say something.’ I just blurted out “HEY!!!” and then the picture was taken and Justin said, “What’s up how are you” and then kinda rubbed/stroked my back. Then all the security guys were like, “MOVE!” so I had to leave and I was just in complete shock because Justin touched me and replied to something I said. I was a bit upset I couldn’t hug Justin though because that’s what I wanted the most. At the arena I called my friend and started crying and told her I had just met Justin! The whole day was just so emotional and the concert was so amazing, the best concert I’ve ever been to. Justin looked at me twice and I just melted. I looked at Dan on stage for a moment and waved at him and he waved back! Also in Finland I found out I was staying in the same hotel as Justin and the whole crew. After the concert when I was at the hotel, Alfredo put a picture on Instagram in gym. I knew the gym was on my floor so I thought that well this is once in a life-time opportunity. When I walked out of my room, I met 2 other fans and we tried to find the gym but we saw angry Dustin instead who told us to go away. I’m so grateful Justin went to Finland and that I could see him/meet him. This is so cheesy but I guess you should really never say never. I just want to thank Justin for everything and I love him so much, he’s such an amazing person and I hope I can see him again soon. -@kaidyftw Follow this link: I’ve been reading other Bieber experiences for over 2 years and…
Never in a million years did I ever think I would have a “My Bieber Experience.” A lot changed on June 12th, 2010 and I would give anything to relive that day. He was the first boy to give me flowers, which I still have 3 years later. The first boy to hold my hand. And the first boy to tell me that I was beautiful. I wish I could thank him everyday because he changed my life. -Lauren ( @laurnicolee) Read the original post: Never in a million years did I ever think I would have a…
My name is Marsela, and I still can’t believe that I am about to write my very FIRST Bieber Experience! I attended Justin’s concert in Moscow, Russia on April 30th, 2013. I live in Nizhny Novgorod but luckily, my dad drove 6 hours to get me to that concert. The news about Justin’s concerts in Russia spread around in the beginning of November 2012. I quickly bought the tickets as soon as they were available. Unfortunately, our country didn’t sell the M&G passes, so I was utterly frustrated. Time went by but I still didn’t give up on trying to find a way of meeting Justin. It was the end of March already when I found out about the BieberFever contest. Although I was sure I am a total loser, I decided to give it a try and kept my fingers crossed. Guess what…I WON! Oh my goodness! I can’t express how happy, cheerful and shocked I was. I was just on cloud nine, especially because I had received the message 15 hours before the actual meet and greet. When we arrived to the venue, the state of my mind and soul was insane. We waited for Justin for over an hour but trust me, every second was worth the meeting. When it was my turn, I felt as if my heart was going to jump out of my chest. I saw Justin and the time just stopped for me. I stood right in front of him saying “Hello” and I COULDN’T BELIEVE MY EYES. Justin was just too good to be true. Justin’s bodyguard (Dustin, I think) put me to the left as apparently I was paralyzed and mesmerized by Justin’s beauty. After that, I don’t know why I asked Justin, “Can I stand there?” Justin answered me with BY FAR THE KINDEST AND SWEETEST VOICE I had ever heard, “Stay wherever you want.” OMG! You probably can imagine how stressed I was. It came as a surprise to me that I look quite put-together in the photo although it was snapped a second after this conversation had happened. I don’t remember everything clearly but right after the “photo session,” I grabbed Justin’s hand and I believe, Justin grabbed my other hand. It may sound weird but we rubbed each other’s hands for like 10 seconds, it was 10 seconds of HEAVEN. My emotions took over me and I couldn’t let him go. During these seconds I managed to tell Justin that I love him. Finally, I went out of the room and literally burst into tears of happiness and I felt on top of the world. I couldn’t embrace the fact that I had met my inspiration and that we talked and held each others’ hands. By the way, at that time I was 17 years old. My birthday was on May 2nd, I couldn’t ask for any better present on my 18th birthday. Speaking of the show, it was PURE PERFECTION. I am speechless. Hands down! Every song Justin sang gave me so much energy and joy. After everything was over, I had a bittersweet feeling. I was a little bit sad because this fairytale ended. However, I can truly call it the highlight of my life! Something tells me that someday I will meet Justin again. Looking back, I am extremely grateful for this journey. From the bottom of my heart I’d like to say “THANK YOU, JUSTIN” for every single thing you do for us. I hope that maybe one day you’ll come across my story and even remember me. Every belieber deserves to meet Justin. That’s why I genuinely think that by reading my experience you’ll realize that, “ALL HUMAN WISDOM IS CONTAINED IN THESE TWO WORDS – WAIT AND HOPE.” Thanks to Justin now I know that ‘never say never’ does work and that everything is possible if you believe. -@Marselenia Go here to see the original: My name is Marsela, and I still can’t believe that I am…
