    Although I have never seen one up close, their claws are something from the cretaceous period. If you have every held a parrot and thought "these guys have sharp claws" imagine what a cassowary could do.

    If you can get your ass to Madison County this weekend, you can place a bid on that very bird.

    Close, Florida Men!

    White members of a gang forcibly covered a black member’s gang tattoo with a phrase including a racial slur, according to Marion County Sheriff’s Office.

    The evidence on Michael Hart’s neck said, “F--- you, Niger.”

    According to what police say Lucian Evans told them, he, Brandon Hayley, Brett Singleton and Mary Elizabeth Durham were trying to discipline Hart, not insult an African nation. Hart had violated gang rules, Evans said.

    Close, Florida journalist:


    CORRECTION: The previous headline and first paragraph of this story misstated the skin tone of the victim. Michael Hart is a white man.

    Well, at least they didn't insult Nigeria. I mean, that is one bad-ass country! Who else got kicked out of the African Cup of Nations for executing a poet?

    Florida women are really fighting for the title this year:

    https://www.miamiherald.com/news/state/florida/article230091664.html

    When a Florida deputy asked a woman if she had anything else on her during a routine traffic stop, he wasn’t expecting what she did next.

    She “proceeded to pull an alligator out of her yoga pants (about one foot in length) and placed it into the bed of the truck,” the Charlotte County Sheriff’s deputy said in an incident report.

    How the hell does one keep an alligator in their yoga pants, and not have it noticed?

    The same way that Grocho Marx once shot an elephant in his pajamas. How it got into his pajamas was the mystery. :unsure:
