    I think I know what Chris Rock would say about this ...



    "Siegfried and Roy, the tiger bit the man in the head, and everybody's mad at the tiger. Talkin' bout the tiger went crazy. That tiger ain't go crazy, that tiger went tiger! You know when the tiger went crazy? When the tiger was riding around with the little Hitler helmet on. Oh ... I'm a crazy tiger!"

    They think it was because of the trainer's ponytail:

    I've been to a few dolphin and whale shows and while entertaining, I wouldn't have a problem if they just had a big old tank where you could watch the whales and dolphins swim around.

    Agreed its sad and RIP to the trainer.

    I feel bad for plenty of people - kids born with disabilities, kids who don't have enough to eat, mental patients who end up homeless, people who contracted AIDS through a blood transfusion, people who livein Canada and can't escape.......

    What I don't feel bad for - in the same way Chris Rock was quoted above - are people who fuck with wild animals who are big enough and strong enough to tear their heads off and have the instincts to do it without being provoked.

    That includes people who are mauled in the annual running of the bulls or who are mauled by a pissed off bull or bronco in a rodeo.

    I don't anticipate I'll ever get eaten by a lion or tiger or killer whale for that matter because, well, my ass ain't ever getting in a cage with any of them and as Jim Rome likes to say "I ain't going to participate in any sport which requires a Bull -- be it running from them, riding them or fighting them."

    Fatty titties are so unattractive. She should keep them covered up and propped up so you can at least give the illusion that you have a nice perky set of them....
