Was his name Leo, or Neo?
Can this really be true? According to the BBC, the Cambodian government on April 30 allowed 42 midgets to get in the ring with an African lion in a fight to the death. One of the governments major conditions was that they get 50% of the revenue.

12 minutes after the fight started, 28 midgets were dead, and another 14 out of the fight with broken bones and missing limbs.

I'm guessing they didn't give the midgets any weapons. WTF were they thinking? I don't think 420 midgets could take down a lion. Had no one involved ever tried to give a cat a bath? A cat that weighs, of I dunno, 500+ pounds?

UPDATE: A hoax. Knew it was too good to be true, but I got the link from a trusted site without checking it myself.

A Thousand Ships, At Least...
I spent yesterday up at a local RenFair, and again ran into a woman, who, if not one of the most beautiful girls in the world, is right up there as one of the most photogenic.



Beauty such as this is one reason why I'm a solid supporter of human cloning - Beauty such as hers should not be subject to an expiration date.

These were not studio shots. While I had a very good camera, these were impromptu poses in an outdoor setting, and the mid-day light was harsh and unforgiving.

His Chimp Fu Is Strong
I would wager that this is a bonobo that is still fairly young. You'd have to be a madman to let a fully grown chimp do this. He'd take you apart iffn he got out of control.

See the video here.
