Two prawns were swimming around in the sea.​

One called Justin and the other called Kristian.​

The prawns were constantly being harassed and threatened by sharks that inhabited the area.​

Finally one day Justin said to Kristian,​

“I’m fed up with being a prawn; I wish I was a shark, and then I wouldn’t have any worries about being eaten”.​

A large mysterious cod appeared and said,​

“Your wish is granted”.​

Lo and behold, Justin turned into a shark.​

Horrified, Kristian immediately swam away, afraid of being eaten by his old friend.​

Time passed (as it does) and Justin found life as a shark boring and lonely.​

All his old chums simply swam away whenever he came close to them.​

Justin gradually realised that his new menacing appearance was the cause of his sad plight.​

While swimming alone one day he saw the mysterious cod again and he thought perhaps the mysterious fish could change him back into a prawn.​

He approached the cod and begged to be changed back, and, lo and behold, he found himself turned back into a prawn.​

With tears of joy in his tiny little eyes Justin swam to Kristian’s home.​

As he opened the coral gate, memories came flooding back.​

He banged on the door and shouted,​

“It’s me, Justin, your old friend, come out and see me again”.​

Kristian replied,​

“No way man, you’ll eat me. You’re now a shark, the enemy, and I’ll not be tricked into being your dinner”.​

Justin cried back​

“No, I’m not. That was the old me. I’ve changed…”​

“I’ve found Cod. I’m a prawn again Kristian”​

 
Speaking of cows....

Cowboys used to hang a lantern on their saddle horns if they were traveling late or at night so they could see the trail. This is the earliest use of saddle light navigation we have found.

Nasa was experimenting with different animals in space.​

Monkeys were an obvious choice, but they had no patience.​

Mice chewed all the cables, dogs were too stupid and chickens were always scared.​

It seemed the only animal that could cope with the intense stress of space travel was a chilled out alley cat.​

After a few months of testing and training, he was ready for his first mission.​

The cat was to embark on a journey to Saturn’s moon, Titan, to discover if life would be sustainable…​

The rocket prepares for take off.​

BLAST OFF!!​

…and POW the cat bursts through Earth’s atmosphere and begins his journey as the first feline in outer space.​

A few weeks go by, and after a while,​

the cat starts to get bored.​

He spots a red planet nearby, and although he tries to resist the temptation, he sets the shuttle on a new course.​

Before Houston could stop him, he lands on Mars.​

Houston sends a probe to investigate what the heck the cat was up to and why he decided to venture so far off course.​

The probe gets to Mars and finds tracks, which lead it to an area of wreckage and signs of a fight.​

The cat is dead, flat as a pancake on the ground and a robot, once sent to explore Mars, had cat remains trodden into its tracks.​

It was clear… Curiosity killed the cat.​

:chair:There’s two minutes of my life I’ll never get back
 

A bunch of boys decide to go cow tipping…​

They go up to the fence and they are all standing there.​

They all point out the closest cow and have one of the boys go tip it over.​

The cow falls over and they all laugh.​

They find another cow and another kid goes over, tips it, and they laugh.​

One of the boys sees a fence a little ways away with a few massive bulls in it.​

They all dare one of the kids to tip the bull.​

He sneaks up next to the bull and tries to push the bull over.​

The bull rocks back and forth a little bit, but nothing.​

He runs back to his friends and they are all laughing at him.​

The biggest kid decides he will have better luck.​

He sneaks up to another bull, takes a lineman’s stance, and slams into this bull as hard as he can.​

The bull teeters almost completely sideways and then back, away, and back, but doesn’t tip over.​

He runs off back to his friends.​

Everyone is laughing, but they can’t figure out why the bull didn’t fall.​

The bull was almost completely sideways.​

There is no way the bull should have not fallen.​

All of a sudden, a bull just on the inside of the fence speaks up,​

“You’ll never tip us!”​

A kid asks back, “and why is that?”​

“We bulls wobble, but we don’t fall down.”​
