I presume the steady camera meant it was a security camera, then edited later. Brave little cat.

That dog will be put down I'm guessing.

 

If anyone fancies a go at a £10m scoop 6 jackpot on Saturday the lads on the horsderacing forum are putting a syndicate together. £25 min stake.

 

Most dogs don't attack humans...so this dog is seriously out of control. No other choice. He doesn't look like our idea of a pitbull but, having watched the Dog Whisperer, I think he is at least part pitbull....a common cross in America.

 

And dogs that do attack humans don't tend to do it like that. Never heard of a dog stalking a human before. Normally it's when the human approaches the dog.

 

The dog saw the child as food. He didn't look thin, so he was just out of control. Big dogs obey humans, even as small as that child, if they have been trained properly. Dogs are generally people pleasers. Sadly, even if you ignore morons who want attack dogs, some people let their dog take charge and even pander to them by getting them over excited without being able to exert control.

This is how stupid people can be.

 

Doesn't matter whether the authorities are being over cautious or not...surely it is easy to stop kissing camels. Unless it's the only action they get. Not so easy for them to stop drinking milk and eating camel meat (though I've resisted so far).

 

no need to get the hump

 

I want one of these for my birthday present

 

I think you have a better chance of getting the pants.

 

Oh... Not again! I'm almost at the point where a tie would make a nice change

 

They were showing the opening ceremony of the 9/11 Memorial Museum on Sky News earlier. Was so moving.

 

I went to the site of the Twin Towers a few years ago...very emotional. There is an old church (18C) nearby where the firemen and rescuers rested...now filled with gifts from round the world, notably from children. Great Britain gave them a copy of the Liberty Bell which is in the churchyard. The nearby fire station has a gallery of fireman who died.

 

I went there in 2012 and it was just a building site.

Sounds like it's really nice now though.

 

DTLW has hit the magic 20,000 posts mark then. I think he's only the second one on here, after Fran?

 

I'm replying to this just to see how many posts I've posted. Oh, only 16000.

 

When I hit 20,000 we're having a Not606 party.
