"We're going to need a bigger boat....."

I would certainly agree with Mr. Ken Ham that an ark made of a bathtub would be very dangerous - think of the overcrowding, with the giraffes and elephants and all - Whats interesting is that, in the world of Ham,nothing is wrong with the story, just the depiction, giving those pesky secularists ammo to brainwash the children ;)

Elephants, despite their great size and strength, are prone to dropping dead if subjected to stress and strain.
some may remember my post a while ago about my African pen-friends elephant which dropped dead while pulling some stranded missionaries from a failed river crossing
But the whales would be in their watery element

[ludwig]

Watery elephant? Oh sorry I misread it. You wonder why he went to the trouble of the whole flood thing anyway. Couldn't he just have zapped everyone but Noah's family and two of every animal?

[jomifl]

Sandy, has the thought occurred to you that god zapped the elephant because he(god) was trying to drown the missionaries. God does have a propensity to drown people you know, parting of the red sea as well as the flood.

[ludwig]

Perhaps it was just a baby elephant and they were very fat missionaries.

[sandyRoe]

I know one thing about elephants, they not cheap to replace. It cost me nearly a million Kenyan Shillings to replace the one that perished trying to pull the missionaries land rover from the river.
Western Union is very useful. I don't know how I could have sent the remittance without them.

[ludwig]

^ You didn't say they were in a Land Rover before. No wonder the baby elephant keeled over.

[sandyRoe]

I did in my original post.

So it was a lorry! flipping heck it gets worse.

Sandy,my mower has just died after trying to cut some very long grass, could you send me a million euros (by western union preferably) Thinks.... it's worth a try

[sandyRoe]

Are there no goat herders in your locality? You could offer your lawn as pasturage for his flock. The lawn would be clipped as smooth as a billiard table and you'd have the added bonus of free manure in the shape of the goat droppings.

// my mower has just died after trying to cut some very long grass //

Was he old and infirm? Swinging a scythe is hard work for an old codger you know. I like sandy's idea of using manure in the shape of goat droppings.
Better still, use the actual droppings themselves.

My goat died while making manure in the shape of a lawn mower. Could I have some more grass . . . please?

[sandyRoe]

MIBN, you know, don't you, that requests like yours are more likely to be answered through prayer.

[ludwig]

// My goat died while making manure in the shape of a lawn mower. //

He probably died of frustration. A goat obviously doesn't have the manual dexterity for such a job, what with the cloven hooves and everything.

[sandyRoe]

Passing a stool in the shape of a lawn mower? probably died of shock.

Perhaps we can work out a trade . . . http://www.polyvore.c...g&size=l&tid=48528880

[ludwig]

I think this discussion's wandered off topic.

[sandyRoe]

Yes, indeed. We should get back to the hard facts about the Ark

[jomifl]

Absolutely Sandy, The first hard fact about the ark is that it was mentioned in the old testament. I couldn't think of a second..
