JJHACKThe problem with being too tall and too curious
Can you believe this silly giraffe found a low powerline and a high termite mound at the same place? Can you imagine the shock he got with that long tounge tasting that high voltage powerline!

Oh well I have a lot of bones for Knife handles now! This 4500 pounds of rotting "cooked" meat was really REALLY bad when it first happened. Like everything else in Africa the carcass was quickly cleaned up by the "locals"

Michael RobinsonI've always believed that monopolistic power companies should be heavily reticulated.
In Arabic we have a rime.

Chuck NelsonSaeed, that doesn't rime.

Yeah, I saw a sight one time where some cows had walked up to a downed powerline that was still off the ground a bit. One by one they had walked up to it and in true cattle fashion took a wiff of it touching their noses to it. The result was....a dozen cows lay next to each other with all the flesh vaporized from the ends of their noses exposing the bone.

CanadianLeftyChuck, actually it
Rhymes but doesn't rime in Arabic.

I wonder if the animal was
charged < !--color-->?

Maybe it had a taste for a
'magnetic field' of food.
It probably sent him for an
Amperian Loop !

OK Ok, all you guys making fun of my English!
