CBC Radio’s Vinyl Cafe recently gave out their annual Arthur Awards which recognize “the importance of the unimportant.”
Andy Blau of Toronto won an Arthur Award for fashioning a wheelchair for Blueberry the Bunny “who has rear-leg paralysis and can’t hop around.”
Arthur Awards > Nobel Prize. Suck it, Krugman.

Vibrating Pet Glove Invites Jokes Involving a Certain Synonym for 'Cat'
Apparently, your cat enjoys it when a soft, vibrating material is rubbed against it. That’s why this vibrating pet glove exists. When your cat feels lonely and just needs a tender touch, slip on the vibrating pet glove and give it the massage it so desires. It even wipes clean with a damp cloth if your cat is wet or dirty. It uses 3 AAA batteries, and it totally doesn’t look like a vibrator, so you can just leave it sitting out and not worry about your mom popping over to visit and making your feel uncomfortable. I mean it, uh, doesn’t look like a regular pet brush.

For the last few weeks aficionados of street art have been atwitter with sightings of work by this pseudonymous, secretive British artist. Several of his murals, all featuring giant rats, have popped up on walls and billboards in Lower Manhattan, and on Wednesday a Banksy piece was unveiled at 89 Seventh Avenue South (near Bleecker Street) in Greenwich Village.
This one is not a mural but an installation: a mock pet supply shop, filled with animatronic creatures like a rhesus monkey and would-be creatures like fish sticks swimming in a tank. The Village Pet Store and Charcoal Grill, as the green awning reads, is Banksy’s first official exhibition in New York, his representatives say, and it will be open to the public daily through Oct. 31.
