The story is still somewhat in doubt, but the Zoo officials in San Francisco believe the fatality "victim" of the tiger "attack" may have actually caused it himself by dangling his leg over the wall of the tiger pen. They think the tiger may have been unable to jump 20 feet over the wall, but it was capable of jumping 18 feet and using the guy's body as a climbing apparatus, then decided to munch on him a little. If this turns out to be true, it is another case of Stupidity in Motion, and our gene pool is a little cleaner today. Sorry for the crassness, but I'm all out of sniffles for a dee-dee-dee who teases a tiger and becomes a snack. Now, the two guys chilling out in the cafe who got attacked? I do feel sorry for them. Zoos should get the idea that humans will continue to be stupid (this is far from the first case of this) and provide security for the animals FROM THE HUMANS. Normal fences obviously don't do the trick, so how about electric ones or razor-wire?

Pure craziness...:faint:

If that turns out to be true, I am so pissed that a beautiful animal had to die because of a stupid human. That stupid human sounds like he was doomed. Too bad he had to take that tiger with him.

Wall enclosing killer tiger 4 feet below industry standard - CNN.com

The wall was only 12 feet tall. But the moat seems like it would be sufficient to stop the jump. Huh. Maybe not. I could have sworn I heard something on the news about the bloody shoe being found INSIDE the display, which would indicate to me that he dangled his foot in.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
