Dear Miss Fifi:

My dog, Noodle, is a huge fan of yours. Last week he had hip surgery and I stayed home with him. He likes when I read out loud, so when I finished the latest Janet Evanovich novel I picked up the new issue of Marie Claire.

Have you heard of the Enoshima Aquarium in Japan? Apparently, watching jellyfish can counteract a bad day.

Dear Lola:

First of all, please send Miss Fifi's regards to Noodle, in the hopes of a speedy recovery. Second of all, glad you are a regular reader.

Now, as to the jellyfish, it seemed a bit like you'd had one too many Snausages when I first read your question. But I had my faithful assistant, Dilettante Dilly, check into it for us.

Here's the link to Marie Claire story, Global Stress-Busters. I wonder how many of you humans will stick around in the ocean when a jellyfish is sighted now rather than running for the sand?
