Now would be time for one of those snappy Chicagoist recipes with pictures: Turtle Soup.

E, you missed my point! The dog is not a protected animal and......ok, before this really gets going, I will admit it,I was just being "tongue and cheek" this time! But for real one day when I'm rich I'm going to have my very own Galapagos tortoise!

You're right, Spook. The media would never even notice if, say, a homeless person lost his dog.

See how “the law” works for rich folks. A box turtle escapes in Wilmette, and the Tribune and media sources like Chicagoist are leading international search parties including pictures on the back of cardboard milk boxes that say "Have You Seen Me?" But if the Spook had a box turtle that escaped, the Chicagoist would be calling for me to be prosecuted for keeping a protected animal! I bet the couple accidentally killed Ruth and are launching a "PR Search campaign" to hide the murder! I can't wait for the website to appear!

Maybe she got mad because the Sandroffs got Comcast.
