Some animals are known as sweet & harmless but harbor an inner RAMBO they only show to predators:

Well... at least the first one is considerate enough to aim just over the boy’s head and not right at him.

Hopefully come Tuesday night to Wednesday morning we’ll all be skipping around like alpaca #2

People get llamas and alpacas to protect their other animals from mountain lions.

I’ve seen professional Baseball Players on TV chewing gum as if there was no tomorrow, just like that Llama.

I remember reading a story about an Alpaca that was guarding sheep or something, an Mountain Lion came in the barn and there was a terrible noise. All they found of the lion was a huge blood smear and a couple of teeth. The Alpaca stomped it to death.

Thanks ETL. I think this was discovered by zookeepers in India, seems like I read something about some Delhi llama.

Garry Shandling: So one time I was with the Dalai Lama and he said, "I understand you have some joke about the Buddha." How would you like to be in this position? .... And you know, he's looking at me and he's got the glasses on, and he's the Dalai Lama. I'm talking to the Dalai Lama. And I'm comfortable with that. And I said, "Well, [delivering the joke]:

"Buddha never got married 'cause his wife would have said, ‘What are you gonna do, sit around the house like that all day?'

"Well, I'm meditating, honey."

"Why don't you meditate while you're taking out the trash?

And there's dead silence in this little hut, excerpt for the three American monks, who are laughing hysterically. And so then I explained to him the joke: "In American culture, the husbands and wives sometimes argue because the wife thinks the husband is lazy and sitting around..."

And [the Dalai Lama] goes, "Oh... Funny."

That's what you want -- you want to have a three-minute gap from when you tell the joke to when you get the laugh."
