Crapping Tiger, Hidden Death-- gotta be worse than watching porn on Wal-Mart equipment. Is this guy a front runner for the 2001 Darwin Award? and, secondarily, is ananova a legitimate news source? they always seem to have the kooky stories....

donkey used the patented "incomprehensible irrelevancies" style of posting so that you would be fooled.

For the record, the ABOVE ananova story is about a zookeeper, his tigers, and a roll of toilet paper. Nothing to do with watching porn on Wal-Mart equipment.

Hey wow! I can have Ananova send breaking stories about animal attacks to my WAP phone!

Thanks Internet! My life would be so hard without you!

If the story is indeed true, three cheers for the tiger. Of course, I'm the guy who watches rodeos on ESPN just to root for the bulls.

Then the picadors of course,
Each one on his horse,
I shouted "Ole!" ev'ry time one was gored.

Ananova is a legit news site, once you get past that already-passe talking puppet. It used to be the Press Association's web site (the PA is like the AP, but British), until it was spun off to try to make a profit (ha ha ha!).
