webpics galore

Reminds me of one Darwin Award winner, in 2007 I think. That zookeeper was trying to treat a badly constipated elephant. Gave it two full bottles of laxative, then an oil enema, and still no result. So he "went back" to have a look (don't ask!). At that precise moment, the powerful treatment(s) suddenly gave result at last. The man was suddenly hit by an explosive discharge, he fell and violently hit his head on a sharp stone on the ground, while at the same time getting his face buried under 200 kilos (about 400Ibs) of elephant dung. It was never found out for sure which of the two was the cause of death. Too messy for the coroner to "dig into the case"...
Believe me, you've never heard an elephant sigh in relief until you've heard THAT one!

You sure like galores, don't you? ;-)

In no particular descending order:

- I've seen an even better ashtray. If I find the picture again, I'll be sure to share it with you guys, because it's GREAT. It's roughly triangular in shape. The inside crease has the shape and looks of a human respiratory tract: lungs and trachea, the top of which is the cigarette's resting groove. Tobacco directly makes the lungs visibly disgusing-looking...
Most educational. (Even better than my Dick Cheney mouth toilet bowl. ;-)

- "...and one McHay to go, hold the apples."

- I'm... not sure that egg is about to get fertilized! Then again, spoon iron is good for the embryo.

- "(gulp) Oh Lord Jesus, please don't let me down!"

- Clever baby. He's spotted where the chocolate milk (the milk chocolate?) comes from.
I love the mother's reaction. Looks like they're not ALL hysterical. Then again, she DOES look to be laughing hysterically!!!

- Yup. TC and I went to see Big Dumpo's act last summer. It's not a flying elephant, but something sure does fly. Just don't sit right behind that fan (trust me!).

My favorite is Pussy.

He probably died because he didn't want to go through life as the guy an elephant took a giant shit on. you just can't live that down.

Pascal [P-04referent] said...

Hmm, makes sense...

Perhaps you CAN die of embarrassment after all? I'll have to suggest it to the coroner.
