And then you've got spontaneous human combustion. Hundreds of people spontaneously combust every year. It's just not widely reported.

Agreed

The likely explanation for suspected cases of spontaneous human combustion, is that there is an external source of ignition such as a match, a cigarette, an electrical spark that sets off the wick effect, but the evidence of it is destroyed by the fire.

Spring is coming soon and I think I'll dig out my metal detector this year. I know some good spots and there's no telling what may turn up. Maybe even some pirate treasure. Some old quays and landing places have never been looked at properly.

(And no, I don't need any busybodies giving me their two bob's worth about it :))

Probably did an ossie.. Chinese eat bats

An old chinese joke with truth to it was, the cantonese will eat anything that has four legs other than a table, anything that flies other than an airplane, and anything that swims other than a submarine.

I sometimes see this TV programme about Australia's airport customs - most of it seems to be about the weird crap that Chinese folk try to bring into the country. They must be really picky to feel they have to bring food from home to get by. And most of it looks like it was picked from a litter tray. No wonder they're all mental.

In case you think I'm being racist I will say that we have our share of mental people too - particularly the guy who works down the (Chinese) chip shop swears he's Elvis.
