And …

my pet project

is in my dreams (for our armed forces) only.

(Cartridge is still available and chambered for one or two guns, but was a commercial flop. Yet it’s perfect at normal engagement ranges, and the armed forces can cut costs by building ammo for training using a much-lighter revolver bullet with enough propellent to match the trajectory with the normal cartridge.)

I’ll bring a Big Fifty, or my pet project (never mind what it is, but I wish our armed forces had it and were using it in Iraq). Well, so you feel extra safe, me Bwana, you gun bearer. Big Fifty is a heavy gun to lug around. And that lets me run away faster.

(No, I don’t have a .50 BMG, actually.)

Current reports are that the men were teasing the tiger. Sounds like a bad idea in rerospect.

Like Binky the Bear, ~~Hillary~~ Tatiana took a bite or a swipe out of crime.

Should have shipped it off to S&R in Vegas. Whats wrong with chimps and bears in costumes doing tricks, as opposed to being natural carnivores.

According to the sfzoo.org website, the zoo is closed today out of deference to those who were attacked, but will re-open tomorrow.

They still haven’t figured out how exactly the tiger escaped, but they’re opening tomorrow…. Love it!

I’ll be there, but only if Uncle DLS tags along with his not-really-an-assault-rife for protection
