Several years ago, in New York, Siegfried and Roy had a van containing some of their tigers stolen. They went on all the TV and radio stations begging the thieves to return the van and for God's sake, don't open the back doors. About half an hour later an anonymous call came into the police saying the van was in a particular alley. Tigers were all safe, no one was reported to have been nibbled on.
Yeah, I would not want to be the carjacker who climbs into the back only to find himself face-to-face with Mantecore.
Upon consideration, Siegfried and Roy probably have the most effective home security system in the world. No one in their right mind would break into a mansion where the housepets are Siberian tigers, and as for the ones not in their right minds, well, see above about the housepets being Siberian tigers.
If you were this guy, would you have a better or worse chance against two Siberian tigers?
Yul Brynner's family were Siberian tiger hunters. So Siegfried and Roy might want to watch out for him. Or his ghost and/or descendants, I suppose.
Once again testing the hypothesis "Snickers really satisfies". Nope, not so much.
If you were this guy, would you have a better or worse chance against two Siberian tigers?
They'd just rip off the wrapping to get to the snack inside.
Humans like meat wrapped treats, why wouldn't tigers?
I just showed Food, Inc. to my students so when I look at that guy all I can think of is weird microbial skin infections. yick!
I just
knew
that if I googled "meatman" I'd find a picture of a man wearing meat.
Internet, I love you.
Ugh, I'm just trying to dig out from under a big backlog of email and have been feeling so swamped for the past few weeks. Usually winter is a slow time of year for work with me, which poses it's own set of problems, but this year has been crazy busy. It's great for the business but it means I'm just feeling way behind on everything.
Things that are on the front burner right now; finish tax prep work to be ready to meet with the accountant on Monday, put together syllabus for class at SMC that starts tomorrow, put together Keynote presentation for same class tomorrow, follow up on discussions with new business unit at big client to solidify upcoming projects, follow up on audition with yet another business unit at big client which will hopefully lead to an additional long term contract, drive down to UCI to fill out HR paperwork for class that I start teaching there at the end of March, read over syllabus for same class and submit requests to college bookstore for script the students will be using, get digital scripts distributed for students in my class at CalArts for the next section of the class I'm teaching there, spend the next three evenings at UCLA advising students during tech rehearsals, schedule meeting with prospective board member for theater company where I'm VP of the board, schedule interview with potential director of development for theater company where I'm the managing artistic director...and I don't think I can type any more, but there's lots more.
It's good to have all the work and I'm very thankful about it, I'm just tired right now.
Wow ND, I need to take a nap just reading that.
I almost posted the exact same thing (as Burrell).
