RE: Weird and Wonderful stories from around the World
In light of some of the spectacular dives and play-acting we've seen in the World Cup, I give you probably the funniest football dive of all time.

OMG, that's awful. Players should be banned for play-acting.

Well, here's the epitome of stupid and shortsighted:

I'm not surprised they've received death threats. It crossed my mind, too...Confused Offer a burger made from an endangered species...Angry How many different kinds of stupid is that? And what is a US Dept of Agriculture farm doing raising lions to be eaten???

Sorry, bit of a rant there.

I am simply horrified. It seems Arizona renders themselves infamous - again. They couldn't have stuck to antelope or bush rat? What is the most stupid to me is the blatant stereotype they are perpetuating because when you think African animals you think about lions. Lions are not a standard protein source in Africa as far as I can tell.

Maybe I being a hypocrite. I will admit that I have eaten buffalo, which are also endangered, and bear. The difference being they are accepted meat sources from prior to European settlement in the US.

And here I was thinking that S7 was a bit implausible because, well, the Cold War is over, isn't it?

Oh, Nitrus, that is HYSTERICAL! (In a horrible kind of way. I really shouldn't be laughing...Blush They guy is OK.) Clearly someone needed their mother to tell them to stop swinging that thing around or they were going to put someones eye out!
