[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by CANADIANPACIFIC2816</i> <br /><br />While this is somewhat off the subject, in 1989 my Dad told me that when he was a kid, there was a man in his neighborhood who hated cats with a passion. So do I! He would grab a stray cat and head for the nearest railroad line, secure the cat to the rail and leave it for an oncoming train to run over. Of course I would do the same thing, only I would use a hammer and four large nails!! But in truth, as much as I hate cats, I could never bring myself to be that cruel to an animal. You could imagine the stink that would result with a dead cat rotting in the sun!! <br />[/quote] <br /> <br /> <br />a cat rotting in the sun, I've seen those a lot since I live near a railroad (guess the poor things get blinded by train light), they don't really smell much, the sun dries them all up and they are small, unless you get really close that is, but still not that much.. <br /> <br />now, what REALLY smells bad is what I've seen once beside a rail road, a huge thing, all black from rotting, a cloud of stench around it. I just passed along, didn't know what it was really. Judging by the size of it and shape, I'm thinking something like...what do you call a female deer in english? (sorry for my bad english) ...anyway, that, a female deer . <br /> <br />It's amazing what a train can do to animals. If you go on walking on an active railroad, you'll find all kinds of animals: rabits, cats, dogs, even big things sometimes. Most of the smaller ones will be in peaces, head here, half of body there, another half there. <br /> <br />sorry for the grotesque post [:D] <br />I'm just contributing <br /> <br />
