Dane Cook and his pooping dog give up apartment
TMZ reports that Dane Cook has given up his fight to live in what he believes is an apartment that has a supernatural force.

“Cook was evicted from a West Hollywood apartment last August after a jury decided the "comedian" habitually violated the rules requiring him to pick up his dog's crap.
“As reported yesterday, Cook threw a Hail Mary at the judge, arguing that hizzoner should block the eviction because the apartment building had almost paranormal qualities -- John Belushi and Steve Martin both lived there, and Cook believed if he moved out his creative juices stop flowing and a bad case of writer's block would ruin his career. Did anyone see "Employee of the Month?"
Cook has apparently abandoned the appeal.
Dog poop contains common pathogens such as tapeworms, roundworms, cryptosporidium, salmonella, E.coli, and many others. Owners, clean up after your dogs and wash your damn hands.
It’s gotten so bad that the Israeli city of Petah Tikva, a suburb of Tel Aviv, has started a six-month trial program where it is matching the DNA of dog poop, either in special containers or found on the street, to a database of registered dogs and their owners.
“Owners who scoop up their dogs' droppings and place them in specially marked bins on Petah Tikva's streets will be eligible for rewards of pet food coupons and dog toys.
“But droppings found underfoot in the street and matched through the DNA database to a registered pet could earn its owner a municipal fine.”

New neighbors asked me to not let my dog go in their front yard. Even not on the first ten feet which is county property. Does it mean that the neighborhood is decent that a lady with a small dog is not afraid to walk there? I would be worried more if no one walks around the area. Should my dog and I have more understanding from the dog/animal haters of the world? One time my dog and I saw a group of teenagers and one of them was peeing on the front yard of my neighbors’ house. When I confronted the boy he said that “your dog does it, why can’t I?” My dog was wagging her tail and at this moment she realized that homo-sapiens and carnivores have much in common.
Wow, DNA matching dog poop to a registered database. Now that's taking security to a whole new level.
