Alligator -v- Python: A draw
I couldn't quite work out what was going on in this picture, but after some examination, you can just about work out that it IS in fact a 13 foot python that tried to swallow a 6 foot alligator.
And burst.
Adds a whole new literal bent to 'eyes bigger than his stomach'. (full story)

Which Johnny Depp Are You?
Quelle surprise...
 | You
Are Edward From "Edward Scissorhands."
You
are very shy and often misunderstood. Innocent, sweet, and artistic,
you like to pass your days by daydreaming and expressing yourself
through the arts. You are a truly unique individual. Unfortunately,
you are quite lonely, and few people truly understand you. |
Take
The Johnny Depp Quiz!

Pointless Signs #2
For reasons best known to themselves, Tacheback sponsors Topman put a bag and a bottle of water in the goodie back that all we par-tay attendees left clutching in our hairy mitts.
I've brought the bottle of water to work with me, as I, er, melted the old one I had (but that's another story).
Call me sad ("Oi, Sad!", etc), but I found myself reading the smallprint on the back of the bottle.
Now I don't know if you can make that out, it's a bit blurry, but...
"AVOID CHEWING"?
