I took my car in for a service today and was walking home, head down, thumb up bum so to speak, and was walking passed a sorghum paddock in ankle deep grass, when out of the corner of my eye I saw a fox crouched in the grass ready to pounce

I scissor kicked, half piked, shrieked a little (and I think a little bit of wee came out)by the time I touched down I was 5 meters away and noticed the fox had been skittled by a car, it was dead. I felt a little embarrassed

Consider changing brands of coffee?

That's funny, Bakes - love the story.

In gunsmithing school The buffing wheel caught what I was holding and threw it to the floor .The fellow next to me jumped about 3' in the air !!
I apologized but asked if he was always so nervous .He said no, only since Viet Nam !

scissor kick, halfpike, 5M hop,skip, & jump.
The shoulder is healing nicely it seems.
bladder muscles maybe not so good

Better than acting like a squirrel in the middle of the road and getting run over.

I see a reality TV show in Bake's future: "Dangers that never were, but might have been"

Great story Bakes! Thanks for a great laugh!

You can get a lot of work done after a few cups.

Take a Tablespoon of cement and harden the *&^% up. You're not supposed to admit you "wee'd" a bit...............

DON'T JUDGE ME....YOU WEREN'T THERE

Now that's funny right there!!!

That's a lot better than what happened to Patsy a few yrs ago when two pits attacked her. Big chunk out of upper thigh, (maybe they agreed that tasted great!) and nearly scalped her. Spent three month in the hosp. Second month home up and OD's on shit drugs!

I remember one deer season I was wandering about the woods and came upon a downed tree hung up in another tree crotch. I walked/shimmied up that tree trunk and stood in the tree crotch waiting for whatever might come along. The first 'thing' happened to be my brother still-hunting through the woods. I kept silent until he walked directly underneath me and I let out a growl/huff like a mad animal...I still can't keep from laughing when I picture his face and body in recoiled fear!!! He spotted me 5 feet above him and swore at me a bit as I sat up there and laughed my ass off.

That's Australia for you - even the dead stuff is deadly.
