Well, I'm honored that my rant about law school was awarded best review, but I think we did a real disservice to Hagen from "White God" as a best pet nominee. That dog literally led a pet revolt while Bing-Bong couldn't get himself out of a pit of forgetful despair. Which pet would Dingo befriend, do you think?
