This entire thread is bloody ridiculous. Was there this much outrage when the American TV networks and BBC showed clips of cows with the infamous "Mad Cow Disease"????????? It was a rather tongue-in-cheek approach (showing what appeared to be an intoxicated cow trying to walk) to a serious beef supply story. Hell, the newsreaders couldn't even keep straight-faced when the cows were running into things. As for PETA, we now know that there are quite a few PETA members into wetlook!!!!!!! I bet the American "Animal Planet" channel tosses them into bloody convulsions. Somehow I don't believe that anyone meant any undue harm to persons or animals here. It has been blown completely out of proportion. Let's all stop the flaming and how 'bout we put this one to bed? Let's get on with what we do here------WETLOOK. Regards to all, Monty Python

By RK - Sun 09/04/06 10:13:55 GMT I thank a lot of people are taking things out of context and missing the point. He talks about the cows but at the end of the message he mentions the seriousness of the situation. Unless you have been involved in these type situations then you probably won't understand. There's nothing funny about injury or loss of life for both people or animals or even loss of property. A lot of people find stuff to laugh about after experiencing a traumatic situations. Finding laughter isn't taking away from the situation, but merely a way of the person involved not losing their sanity. If you thank about some of the interviews from Katrina some of them had humor in them from the people involved. I believe the poster was just trying to find ways to talk about what has happened in their area over the past week. Instead of trying to be a friend and helping them get through this hard time, most everyone has tried to jump on them about their post, making the situation worse. Sometimes you need to look at things from the other persons perspective and see where they are coming from before jumping to conclusions. |

By Liquidladies/Waterlogged Production - weinerking@bellsouth.net Sat 08/04/06 07:03:09 GMT Website: www.liquidladies.org I am sure by now many of you have heard of the devistation that raked my area of middle Tenn. yesterday...
I suffered only a few hail dents, but people 30 miles away suffered worse and many died.....For the folks in Europe...Tornadoes in the USA are the worst form of natual disaster here and the ones you may have over there are much weaker than what we experience here each Spring...
But my story is this..A work last night a co worker was telling us of the storms that hit his property and beside him is a pasture of Cows. Well baseball size hail came down from this storm and began pelting the cows in the field..Baseball size NOW.. He said he watched the cows frantically going crazy jumping up and down trying to escape the hailstones as they were hitting all the cows on the head and backs...They went to seek shelter in the forest of trees nearby and with them running so frantically, many of the cows ran a lightning speed right into the trees.
He said it was one of the funniest things he had seen... Too bad we did not get this on Tape to show you all...
But nevertheless...Tornadoes have raked this region 2 times in 5 days and left 35 people dead and thousands of homes flattened to the grouond....
Just a thought you might think of in your prayers as you may hear only about hurricane Katrina"s in life, but these wicked storms hit much more often and many without minutes warning..
