London Underground unfit for transporting cattle

European man has been imported and has not quite adapted himself to scorching climate. Therefore skin cancer is more prevailing there than anywhere else in the world. However, the disease is becoming more common among other white men too because they want to go grilling themselves to more temperate countries - like Australia. |

London Underground unfit for transporting cattle
I understand that the 35 degrees is a Daily Mail lie (no surprises
there then) to get the 'cattle' bit into the story. The real temperature was 32 degrees. I'm just puzzled why you guys think that is unbearably hot; it was 35 here a couple of days ago and it's still officially winter :-) The Australian desert has it's own flora and fauna. European man has been imported and has not quite adapted himself to scorching climate. Therefore skin cancer is more prevailing there than anywhere else in the world. Climate change is gonna have to be pretty bad before you get sunburn riding on the Tube. It occurred to me that there is a very good reason for transporting cattle on the Underground. Hostages. By far the largest number of terrorist attacks on trains (many more than all others put together) have been anti-Muslim ones by Hindu fundamentalists. They wouldn't dare shoot up or bomb a train half full of cows. ==== j a c k at c a m p i n . m e . u k === http://www.campin.me.uk ==== Jack Campin, 11 Third St, Newtongrange EH22 4PU, Scotland == mob 07800 739 557 CD-ROMs and free stuff: Scottish music, food intolerance, and Mac logic fonts ****** I killfile Google posts - email me if you want to be whitelisted ****** |

It's umbrellas which must be carried (not common those days with the heat). :-) Well, "umbrella" does mean "shade", so to speak. But what about parasols? -- ************* DAVE HATUNEN ) ************* * Tucson Arizona, out where the cacti grow * * My typos & mispellings are intentional copyright traps * |
