| BUGS & DAFFY AT THE WHITE HOUSE |
"A magician who uses a rabbit in his act got an eight-page letter from the USDA (with the folksy salutation 'Dear Members of Our Regulated Community') demanding, as the magician told blogger Bob McCarty, 'a written disaster plan detailing all the steps I would take to help get my rabbit through a disaster, such as a tornado, fire, flood, etc....[and] what I will do after the disaster, to make sure my rabbit gets cared for properly.' It turns out that the USDA has a full-time 'rabbit police' division, with licenses and inspectors and rules governing work hours for animal performers. There's no insurance mandate yet, but they're probably working on one."
