LOL! Count your self lucky it wasn't the CA educational system.

Koala Bears are pretty harmless but they will poop on you if you hold them which is kind of nasty and the eucalyptus leaves they eat make it particularly pungent like Vicks Vapor Rub.

LOL Please don't tell me that they use koala crap when they have a cold!!!

(cough-cough, snivvle) Mom, I don't feel good.

Hold on sweetie, I'll feed Fluffy some ex-lax and set him on your night stand and you'll be all better.

Word. Keep it real homey.

It's a matter of perspective. You just have to say, "Global warming -- caused by Bush -- made my office too hot. I had to go drink a beer, and take my clothes off to cool down. I got distracted, and therefore could not concentrate to finish my paper."

As a prof, I actually HEARD the excuse that "global warming's effect on the weather meant that I caught a cold, and couldnt come to my final exam."

Well . . Koalas, but you have to make SURE it's a koala, and not a Drop Bear. . .

PING!

You're safe with the platypus.

[Grut]

Is there any indigenous animal life in Australia that DOESN'T kill, maim, poison or eat you?

"Some of the sheep."

[midwyf]

I'm sure that is it. If it is causing the sub normal sub zero temps this winter,(the forerunner of the global warming ice age, I guess), I guess it could cause that too.

The Platypus is also poisonous. "The male has a spur on the inner side of each hind limb, which is connected by means of a hollow groove to a poison gland. This spur is used to inflict wounds on natural enemies and other males, and may possibly play some part in mating. The poison is capable of inflicting a very painful injury to humans." http://www.dpiwe.tas.gov.au/inter.nsf/WebPages/BHAN-53573T?open

Hmmmm.

F'i were king of the forest, I'd have President Fox announce a Guest Invertebrate Program for Republican Senators.

This doesn't even need to be photo shopped. Just point camera at a small jellyfish up close with a diver about 20 feet behind it and there you go.

. . . but only some of them. After all, the most dangerous critter on the planet is a clever sheep. . .
