The blue-ringed octopus is one of the most toxic sea creatures in the world. Avoid the temptation of ordering the tossed, blue-ringed octopus salad as a refreshing starter course as the neurotoxins will cause respiratory and cardiac arrest and possibly death.Saturday, July 4, 2009

Survival Tip #11:
Never challenge a Spitting Cobra to a Spitting Contest. The Spitting Cobra will not only spit poison in your eyes, blinding you instantly, but it will sink its fangs into your calves releasing a deadly neurotoxic venom into your bloodstream causing necrosis and eventual death. Causing you to lose the Spitting Contest.Tuesday, June 30, 2009

The Vague Recollections of Sir Lord Billingsley III
I vaguely recollect a story whilst hunting tiger with the Maharaj, a small aboriginal boy whose name escapes me, asking about time. He had been assigned to carry my great Uncle, Lord Winthrop's grandfather clock.This boy asked what the purpose of carrying such a clock was. I replied, "to tell time, of course." But then he asked, "what use do you have of time in the jungle?" We laughed heartily and sent him on his way.
He died of typhoid weeks later. In all probability, I was very drunk at the time.
Ahh yes, Sanjay or Roger or Jirra or Mogwai was his name...I think.
