dhfan – Why do some flies buzz and some don’t?

Newer noise restrictions enforced by the spiders?

Can see it now – all the little ‘English’ bits turned over to become American bits… Tea would become coffee for a start, towel to face cloth maybe, and “Arthur just don’t do it for me – lets change it to Scott! And Dent, what is Dent? Hey, we’ll change it to Haffenberg maybe. And this Ford Prefect; thats just too kooky, so lets have him as an Afro-American by the name of… “
I think you get the idea.

As for Johnny Depp and Robin Williams in Good Omens… NO WAY!
This will be another one filmed in “Noo Yoik” with all the life beaten out of it so that Americans could understand it!

BAGHDAD TIGER SHOT AFTER BITING U.S. SOLDIER

A soldier shot and killed a tiger at a Baghdad zoo after the animal bit another soldier who had put his arm through its cage to feed it.

Zuhair Abdul-Majeed, a security guard at the zoo, said the soldiers had gone to the zoo on Thursday night after it closed and were drinking beer when the incident occurred.

‘He was drunk,’ Abdul-Majeed said of the bitten soldier.

A fellow soldier shot the tiger three times in the head and killed it, the guard told The Associated Press today.

The US military were unavailable for comment

The zoo reopened in July, three months after Baghdad was captured by the Americans.

It had 1.5 million visitors in 2001, but Saddam Hussein closed it for
renovation last year. It was scheduled to reopen on April 7 with a USD 27 million facelift.

Instead, on that day, American troops were on the outskirts of Baghdad and Iraqi fighters had sacked zookeepers from the park, setting up defensive positions among the cages.

When zoo workers returned a week later, some animals lay dead in their cages, while others had escaped when mortar rounds blasted open the bars.

Some wild animals roamed the park freely, including a bear that mauled and partially ate three civilians, and three lions that were shot to death when they tried to pounce on a contingent of invading American soldiers.

Since then, the surviving animals have been nursed back to health, and more animals have been brought in from a small private zoo and from the private zoos found in the palaces of Saddam’s family.

WELFARE GROUP CONDEMNS TIGER SHOOTING

By Sherna Noah, PA News

An animal welfare group today condemned the ‘inexcusable’ behaviour of an
American soldier who shot a tiger in Baghdad Zoo after it bit a colleague who
tried to feed it.

The soldiers were apparently drinking beer at the zoo in Iraq’s capital when
the incident occurred on Thursday night, after it had closed.

A soldier was injured after putting his arm through the cage bars to feed the
rare animal.

Tonight the World Society for the Protection of Animals (WSPA) urged the US
military to investigate.

Spokesman Jonathan Owen said: ‘We are appalled by this report of such an
irresponsible act.

‘You don’t put your hand into a tiger’s cage in Baghdad Zoo or anywhere else
and you don’t go around taking pot shots at zoo animals.’

He added: ‘It is pretty inexcusable to shoot and kill this tiger without any
consultation.

‘But from these reports, it would seem that the American soldier had a
shoot-and-ask-questions-later approach.

‘If there were problems, they should have been taken up with the zoo
management.’

He said the animal was ‘in a no-win situation’.

‘The tiger is one of the ultimate wild predators, it is not a pussycat. You
can’t be surprised if it wants to defend its own territory.

‘These people are not trained with animals and have taken the law into their
own hands with tragic consequences for an animal which is in scarce supply. It
is a great shame that another endangered tiger has been lost.

‘To have soldiers running around and shooting at animals in the zoo in these
sort of circumstances isn’t in anyone’s interest.

‘We would certainly urge the US military authorities to look into this.’

One of the zoo’s security guards, Zuhair Abdul-Majeed, said the soldiers had
gone to the zoo on Thursday night after it closed and were drinking.

‘He was drunk,’ he said of the bitten soldier.

He said the fellow soldier had shot the tiger three times in the head and
killed it.

The US military was unavailable for comment.

Baghdad Zoo reopened in July, three months after the Iraqi capital was
captured by the Americans.

It was scheduled to reopen in April following a 27 million facelift but
American troops were on the outskirts of the city.

When zoo workers returned a week later, some animals lay dead in their cages,
while others had escaped.

Wild animals, including a bear that mauled and partially ate three civilians,
roamed the park freely.

Three lions were shot to death when they tried to pounce on invading American
soldiers.

Surviving animals have since been looked after, and more animals have been
brought in from Saddam’s family palaces.

More than that I cannot comment on, but I am sure you will make your own judgement about the rest anyway.
Hate to think what story the injured soldier was going make about how he got his purple heart…

So what ever happened to this thread?

Got a neighbour like that – if he sees me returning from a show he asks if I got the crash. Sickening.
Anyway statistics will obviously state that if it hasn’t happened yet it is going to, and since it has been over 50 years since the last time then we must be due something sometime (shudder). Not that I want a crash to happen – we must surely have been extremely lucky up until now – but a mistake only has to happen once and all those built up no-claims bonus’s will mean nothing.
