It's strange. There are no lions in northern Europe. Couldn't they all pick something a little more local? [:'(]

I'd say the Swedish lions are both horny, pompous and "special" enough for all of us.

Sharks and swimmers share beach in NZ
Reports of up to 20 sharks off Matarangi Beach in New Zealand were not enough to deter swimmers from cooling off yesterday.
Temperatures in many parts of New Zealand soared past 30 degrees celcius which put swimmers in the water and brought sharks closer to shore.
Holidaymaker Holly Davis, 34, said it was too hot for her to be bothered about “possible sightings” of sharks. “Unless I see fins out there I’m staying in here,” she said. “We don’t have beaches like this in Wellington or weather like this, so you’ve got to make the most of it.”
For those of you unfamiliar with the weather in Wellington, New Zealands capital, it has about a dozen good days a year. On many of the other 343 days the wind is blowing what locals call a breeze, but what anyone else on the planet calls a howling gale. There is also a wide variety of precipitation on offer that offers moisture delivered any way you like it.
The sharks, which were most likely Bronze Whalers, were spotted by a New Zealand Herald photographer on a charter flight along the Coromandel beaches in the North Island of New Zealand. The biggest shark was estimated to be 3 metres long.
Locals say the sharks often come into the warmer shallow waters to feed on fish from the nearby estuary.
Swiss tourist Gerald Huber said he was more concerned about New Zealand’s ozone layer, or lack of it, and the high likelihood of being sunburned than being shark bait.
“If we were on the menu for sharks there would be a lot more attacks than there have been, but I don’t think it’s a problem.
“But if I hear someone yelling, ‘Get out of the water, there’s a shark I won’t be waiting here,” Mr Huber said. Well Gerald, Newswarped would like you to know there are sharks, so out you get mate. We would also like you to know that the hole in the ozone layer is getting smaller so don’t stress too much.

They only look like small Sharks to me Leo, and it's really only the 'White Pointers' we keep have to watch out for down here. I've seen a couple of those monsters off the West Coast of the South Island, and they are always bigger that the boats I was in. I can tell you that they do put the fear into one, when they come cruising around the boats we are fishing from.

I'm tired, cranky, have a headache, and am NOT happy to be back at work this morning. I'm feeling a little combative. [X(]

The worst part is, it's only 0930 here, so I have to wait another 8 hours to have some rum punch. [:D]

I may need to take a long lunch break today and have a liquid lunch. Our pal Harry is opening threads that are literally driving me to drink!

RE: THE THREAD!!!
My wife often tells me stories of people at her hospitals who do things and my wife cannot figure out why they do them. I often mention to her that she is trying to rationally understand irrational people and actions. I need to listen to my own advice sometimes. Thanks, T! [:)]
