RATS: Why They Are Awesome and Why Stereotypes About Them Are Wrong
For those of you who are eagle eyed you may have noticed that my avatar image is a picture of rattus rattus; AKA the common rat. It is, in fact, a photo of some of my own rats altered through a pop art filter. I chose the picture because I. Love. Rats. There, I said it.

CATCH OF THE DAY BY JOSHUA JOHNS Nick didn’t realise he had been staring at the thing for almost half an hour. For close to 30 minutes he had stood frozen; eyes fixated on the thing in the rat trap. If he had blinked during that time he didn’t remembered doing it. In his left hand he clutched a digital camera. On it was over one hundred pictures of the rat trap, but in each of them, the rat trap was empty. When Nick looked at it with his eyes, however, it definitely contained something...
