As I read this post the little voice inside my head spoke its words in my own accent. But then when I got to the part about Ray being from Ireland my brain switched over to an irish accent as I read the rest. Does anyone else experience this weird little quirk? Just wondering if I'm psychotic or not. :omg: Why not throw away a dime? I throw away ten pennies all the time.

Do you really believe there are people all around the world who also sit in front of such devices and enjoy talking to you? Do you occasionally hear beeping noises, or anything resembling "You've got mail!" when you are sitting there? If so, you may be psychotic. But don't worry, they're doing wonderful things these days with electric shock and ice picks.

Are our Gila Monsters actually venemous, or are they like the Komodo Dragons? For those who aren't familiar with them the Komodos are poisonous because they have a wide selection of bacteria and toxins in their mouths due to bits of rotting meat that accumulate there. (Is anybody suprised that I win at Trivia Games often? :laugh: ) Also, in the same vein as the Koalas gone bad mentioned earlier in the thread we can't forget the Javalinas. I still haven't seen one, (I guess I live too deep in the big city), but I would imagine that they probably wander your area in large packs Roger - stealing children and chasing old ladies around. :) Jason Jystad

Jason Jystad wrote: they probably wander your area in large packs Roger - stealing children and chasing old ladies around We have a real problem with that. Fortunately, we have plenty of old ladies, especially when the snowbirds are visiting. No one really misses them here, as they're just visiting, and no one back home misses them either, else they wouldn't be chased out of town each winter to migrate here, hopefully to expire in the desert on the way. Or so we infer from their behavior.

Being a Discovery Channel watcher, I also know that you have: Box Jellyfish - deadliest jellyfish in the world Blue ring octopus - most venomous creature in the world Great White Shark - Able to eat a human in a single munch Not to mention the Crocodile Hunter! :) Brigg Thorp Software Engineer Timex Corporation
Thanks Brigg, I had forgotten totally about them. I hope Isacc has read your response to realise I wasn't making it up. :-D Michael Martin Australia mjm68@tpg.com.au "He orginally got the Tweezers of Destruction through the scanners but then popped back outside for a smoke." - Chris Maunder 26/03/2002

First of all it doesn't seem logical that all the deadliest animals in the world roam Australia. :suss: Secondly, as far as I know the deadliest spider is The Black Widow (or the White Widow? I keep getting them mixed). And thirdly, I can understand why snakes were put on the list but what does the Koala has to do with it!? :confused: Isaac Sasson, Lean, mean posting machine!
