BOBLEN!!!!Wow!Just noticed that when you said something.(i use hi-speed dial up-loss of picture quality)
I have decided to let coincidence run my life from here.i think there was a book about that sometime.
Very cool.turtles.
And an Aussie!theres a lady i work with on fri.nights,and educational programming here(US)leads us to believe that every single back-yard down under is rife with danger(common browns,funnel-webs,iraconji).anyway,her and her husband handle wild animal control for our county,and she is obsessed with Australians.
And a Canadian!!!(at least someone who has visited there!!!

)
Ive seen both sides of the US\Canada bash party.all i know is,Brett Hart rules,Dave Foley is the funniest guy on tv.dont know much about it,but i understand Canada has awesome Health-Care(im a nurse),G4 tv,beautiful trains,and a neat sociological"experiment"in BC.
Most turtles have a bite force similar to a snapping turtle,they are just not quite as agressive.Aquatic turtles cannot retreat fully into their shells,hence the agression.Soft-shell turtles realize they have essentially no protection at all,and they are pretty mean as well.
wow.wow.(i stay home a lot.i feel like i just traveled the world.)
off topic-sorry,just excited.
