    We have quite strict gun laws here, you'll have to settle for a .22 rifle.

    What about Dingos? Any limits on them?

    Not sure :scratchhe Plenty of roos though, they hit plague proportions in many places. Not good eating though - a friend of mine who owns a property with plenty of the things lurking in its depths said the wild ones tended to have worms :dizzy:

    I once saw a mature kangaroo on a daytime television talk show and it was having an off day or maybe it was camera nervous or something but it literally kicked the !@#$ out of both of the trainers it had with it. It kicked them all over the stage before they got control of it. I don't know what set him off but he wasn't having it at all whatever it was. Strong little buggers. And sometimes not so small! They lean back and support their whole body weight on their tails and kick out at whatever is closest. Not to mention they have huge @$$ claws on their toes. I'd like to have a boxing match with a big one. A cage match, or perhaps an MMA match.

    Perhaps that could be my new job after I leave/get kicked out of corporate america very soonly. I could come down under and wrestle adult kangaroos and saltwater crocs. Ain't no way no stingray is going to stab me in the heart on no boat neither!

    Necro's inner rage burns like the earth's core which gives him strength of ten men.

    A 'hug Necroticpus' thread might do the world of good. Everyone gather round! :hug:

    Hugs would never do me any sort of good. The only thing that would temporarily supress my most basest urges is for them to be sated. Unfortunately, sating them is against man's laws, even though the end result would be nothing but good for everybody. Well, almost everybody. It wouldn't be good for the former-people-that-irritated-me-who-have-now-been-rendered-down-into-a-pulpy-slurry.

    Speaking of which, I thought I was getting off the track and derailing my own thread but these thoughts actually tie in quite well with my corporate job.

    Re: Work/job thread....

    I QUIT!

    I took the step that needed taking since them bastards wouldn't fire me. I feel like a new man! No more corporate bull!@#$, no more office d-bags, no more ignorant bosses (sorry, ignorant bosses is a redundancy), no more denying old people's claims and making the hospitals take liens against their houses because they can't pay their hospital bills, no more feeling like a dirty rotten two bit !@#$%^&*() gypsy !@#$%^&*()_+. If I never step foot inside another office building again it will be too soon.

    Now, the problem. Trying to find a decent job that isn't going to rub me the wrong way. I don't give a damn about the pay as long as it's something I will feel good about doing, like chopping wood with a double bit axe, breaking up concrete with a 16 pound sledge, filling potholes with asphalt, hunting-torturing-maiming-eventually killing brutal criminals, bartending or maybe being a butcher. Ooooo, being a butcher really gives me a chubby. What a great job that would be. Or better yet, working in a slaughterhouse. Something along those lines. Landscaping would be another possibility.

    Working with children would be good too.

    Anyone hiring?

    Good luck.
    What about bounty hunting?

    Re: Work/job thread....

    I kinda have mixed feelings about bounty hunting. I think the people who skip bail do it for dumb reasons. I mean, I don't think there are any really good reasons to skip bail but the ones who do usually are not serious offenders. If Dog The Bounty Hunter is to be believed, they are all pretty much petty drug dealers and crackheads and whatnot. They don't give bail to the guys I would want to hunt bounties on, like killers, rapists, assaulters of the elderly, kidnappers, child molesters, etc. Actually, I wouldn't even consider them bounties for going after those people. To me, they would be straight up hunting licenses, all seasons. They would most likely have misfortunate accidents when I was bringing them in, like they tried to take away my meat cleaver and chopped their own arms off as we were struggling, or they tried going for my pistol and it discharged 27 times. :evilgrin:

    The lack of a 'Dead or Alive' option means you would pretty much be doing it for recreational purposes anyway.

    My suggestion: Cook. Your stuff would would literally kill in Chicago.

    Suggested motto: "Sure our prices are high, but you won't need any money by tomorrow morning anyway. Guaranteed, or you eat free for life."

    Sure a few will survive, so use them in your advertising. My healthy life-style is just so I can survive until the next weekend. ;)

    Re: Work/job thread....

    I just thought of something good. My mother has a wealthy neighbor that spends his winters in Texas and then comes back to Minnesota when all the snow is gone. He said that where his house is in Texas, you could throw a stone in any direction and be assured of hitting a drug dealer, lol. I'm thinking maybe I should head to Texas and rip off the drug dealers as a full time job. And like the police, I will squeeze information from the petty drug dealers to get info of bigger drug dealers. Run it up the flagpole and see. Why settle for a mere couple of grand when there's guys dealing in BIG quantities of drugs?

    I'm sure it would be a spectacular although probably very short career.
    Why don't you start your own tv show start on the web or a public station and ride the notoriety to a cable station.

    Check out a guy called Charlie Brooker he started out like that and went on to write his own zombie mini series called Dead Set.
