Funniest line I read today...... Not about the dogs dying, just the way you stated it. :TU:

Must be my Irish descent.

Well as a final point on this subject. I watched a few Kangaroos attacking humans videos, and now know Kangaroos are not to be tangled with.

They are like most wild animals. If you leave them alone, they will leave you alone.

going back a couple of years, I was in the bush paddock of my mates place and a mob of Grey kangaroos came through and around us. There was probably 50-80 of them. The greys aren't as big as the reds (I don't think), but they are still bloody big. It was amazing to have happen, but it was a little scary as well. It's amazing how quick they move through the bush.

A friend of mine years ago told me of someone he knew who was driving a brand new Holden Premier on a bush road at night in the 1960s. All of a sudden his windscreen exploded. He pulled off the road and hearing a noise from the back seat turned the interior light on and turned around to see a six and a half foot old man red in the back seat in a stunned condition. The car must have hit it in mid hop. The bloke got out of the car, opened all the doors and bolted. He came back later to find the leather upholstery torn to shreds from the panicked kangaroo fighting its way out.

I sometimes drive from Sydney to Melbourne. If I am still on the road at nightfall I always stop somewhere for the night. Between the roos and the trucks it is just not worth the time saved.

Instead of taking on Rags the Kangaroo, Floyd Mayweather takes off his gloves for his next match, a wrestling bout with the Big Show at WWE’s WrestleMania XXIV in Orlando, Florida on March 30.

While the rassling will likely feature few of the skills Mayweather has displayed inside a boxing ring, the payday will certainly be reflective of a top-notch pay-per-view event. Mayweather will be getting US$20 million for his appearance and will learn of few acting skills in the process so he can follow the script.

That US$20 million may come in handy when it comes to hospital bills. Mayweather is facing a man that stands 7-feet and weighs more than 430 pounds. That’s a slight advantage over Mayweather’s 5-foot-8- frame.

Rags the Kangaroo is not impressed that Floyd is ducking him to take on an easier opponent and has issued a challenge to take on both Floyd and the Big Show for a lot less than US$20 million - just a couple of loaves of sliced bread!

Nice, LMAO. They had to stop the tourists feeding bread to the roos at the Grampian National Park. There were too many Roo attacks on the bus loads of tourists. They must have been led by Rags, they expected their pay-day every-day.
