Steve Irwin dead. :(

http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/story/0,23739,20349534-952,00.html

Stung by a sting ray.

Quote
THE Crocodile Man, Steve Irwin, is dead.

He was killed in a freak accident in Cairns, police sources said.

It is understood he was killed by a sting-ray barb that went through his chest.

He was swimming off the Low Isles at Port Douglas filming an underwater documentary and that's when it occured.

Ambulance officers confirmed they attended a reef fatality this morning at Batt Reef off Port Douglas.

It is understood Mr Irwin was killed around midday,  Eastern Australian time.

It is understood he was killed instantly.

A source said Mr Irwin was already dead when his body was brought onto the Isle.

A source said Mr Irwin's body was being airlifted to Cairns Hospital in North Queensland for formal identification.

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

That was a weird article.. Although I don't really like him, it is still sad.
The once grove of splendor,
Aforetime crowned by lilac and lily,
Lay now forevermore slender;
And all winds that liven
Silhouette a lone existence;
A leafless oak grasping at eternity.

The crocodile hunter should have been killed by a croc, would have been ironic and appropriate at the same time... but a STINGRAY!?  Bah!

I crushed a rattle snake that came into our campsite.

I actually don't know if either part of that is true, since I don't live near them, so I won't comment on it. 

However, I still stand by my point: its intention isn't to kill, its intention is to survive.  So there. :P

All creatures are easily provoked.  Rattlesnakes aren't actually all that agressive.  They use their rattle to warn things off before they are *forced* to attack.  They would rather not be bothered then fight.  If you leave it alone, it will leave you alone. But if that doesn't work, just kill it or use the shirt trick to catch it and release it somewhere farther away.
The once grove of splendor,
Aforetime crowned by lilac and lily,
Lay now forevermore slender;
And all winds that liven
Silhouette a lone existence;

lies.

Not all creatures are easily provoked.  Walk up to a bird & try to pet it...the thing will take off.  Do the same to a diamond back, I bet you die.

And for capturing a rattle snake with a shirt, WTF!?  Unless you're a trained snake wrangler I wouldn't ever try to catch a rattle in something, especially a shirt...way too thin.

First, don't be silly, Crazed. 

Quote
tr.v. pro·voked, pro·vok·ing, pro·vokes

   1. To incite to anger or resentment.
   2. To stir to action or feeling.
   3. To give rise to; evoke: provoke laughter.
   4. To bring about deliberately; induce: provoke a fight.
You provoked the bird by being there causing it to "stir to action" and take flight.

Secondly, you obviously don't know the shirt trick.  You put the shirt over the head of the snake and use something else, (besides your hand) like a stick, to pick it up and move it.  Don't you ever watch Animal Planet?  And no, I wouldn't recommend doing that, but it is an option.  There are other ways.  Put the shirt over the snakes head and force it into a thick enough sack and carry it off.  There are plenty of tricks and ways that you can use to move the snake without having to kill it.

That's what was implied, yes.  But as you know, sarcasm and other implied components are a little harder to decipher.  So, when I used the word provoked, I used the whole defintion.  I changed the context of the word when I used it.  Instead of using part of the definition, I used the whole thing.  I think that Rabbit's way of using it was the same as mine as well, but I could be wrong.

Either way, all animals are easily provoked.
