I have a cousin who is married to a person who will remain nameless for reasons that will become immediately obvious. He is a farm labourer and lives about twenty miles south of Dublin. One afternoon he was sitting up a tree happily sawing off an overhanging branch.
Need I elaborate on this? Result: a sudden demonstration of the power of gravity; a significant impact with mother earth; concussion, a broken arm and a reputation he will never live down.
Moral: choose your end carefully.
Darwin missed on this occasion, but not by much.

Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

Impressive set of opinions you have, Zoo. Maybe you hear confessions as well?

WOW, that sounds young.Sevulturus wrote:WOW, that looks old.
I can't believe you never even heard of Tom and Jerry, Sev. I think you can probably sue your parents for a deprived upbringing on that alone.
Funny thing is, I never really liked Tom and Jerry that much...... but at least I was able to see it myself and decide it sucked. No Witnesses....
