Oh, no, the TV no! :( Yes, it's a decent way to don't be annoyed, since Jessica is forced to stay inside there, but the brain won't get advantages... :? :P Well said, Jessica, it's great that you got it. Why is that so much important for others? ;) So, they now mixes soap operas and documentaries? How evil is that for your brain? :P Uh-oh, Jessica looks all suddenly assimilated by the (ex) box... :| Wait, some anteaters don't like red ants? :o :P
Meanwhile, how are going the works for Karishad? :)

Nat Geo Wild is basically doing Animal Planet's job (you know, making shows about animals instead of people) and even it's not that good.

Animal Planet - still surprisingly about humans.

Or just talk to a Solder.... Pretty sure they still get dog-tags to keep a casualty count and Identify bodies... But yeah collars can also be fashion accessories, especially in the furry community.
