I want to begin this week by sending out a big “Nice try!” to Big Sulley for his great adventure/escape, which ended over the weekend.

Sulley is a 100-pound tortoise who strategically muscled out of his backyard enclosure in Pattenburg, N.J. He then bolted into the great unknown – “bolted” being a significantly subjective thing in this instance. Hey, what the Sull-ster might lack in speed he more than makes up for in straight-ahead tenacity.
