How weird but not very wonderful that my earlier blog today spun together the gold ring in a crocodile’s stomach and the calamity in the stock market. Glancing at the news just now I see that the same croc is not dead and in reward for its gorging on the entirety of a British tourist (the Aussies hate the Poms THIS much?) it has been put out to stud for the rest of its life. Meanwhile, Richard Fuld of Lehman Brothers, having brought about the demise of his company by gorging on countless individuals, walks away to his various studs with 500 million dollars a year in a golden handshake.

It’s a fact; you can’t tell one croc from another.
