Anyone else noticed how stupid some replies are on other forums?
Found a thread on another forum saying things like: it's ok for African cichlids to be in outdoor ponds under two inches of ice,because koi can do it.

Then someone recommends koi instead for a tiny stocktank

.....anybody else heard about the girl who was pushed by her friend off of a fifty foot high cliff?

Heard that, wouldn't be my friend anymore.

It happened at a location in Washington state and is actually a bridge,not a cliff. It seems to be popular attraction for locals who jump from it down into the lake.
Well,this teen was on the bridge with some friends.She was a bit scared to jump and one of her friends gave her a shove.She winded up with injuries including broken ribs and a damaged lung.
View attachment 1329604 the bridge/jump site.
View attachment 1329605the push
View attachment 1329606.....and,down she goes.

My friends did that. When young rock quarries were the thing. Well this cliff was huge. I went to peep down but when I leaned over my buddy nudged me so I lost my balance then had to jump. I didn't get busted up because it was feet first but it felt like I got 2 gallons of enema

Signed a petition protecting red wolves and other endangered wildlife, apparently some politicians think it's a good idea to delegislate the protection of endangered species to make a buck, I however have a moral center.

hello; While I never doubt the concept that a politician is looking to make a buck there can be other reasons to pull back on the endangered species listings. Such listings have been used to restrict land use and not necessarily with the best interest of wildlife being to only criteria.

Red wolves are rather rare, one of the oil companies are apparently wanting the land for oil use
