I know that this is old but we were talking about seeing our pets die.

I saw my cat die today so I am very upset. That cat was really, really old. She was breathing bad, then slowed down, and just stopped. Then 5 seconds later her head started bobbing.

Skippy, you should read these posts from the beginning, and it was initally posted during a big flame war (I think there was some war or something in RL too ;) ).

Hippos also need sandles so they step on rocks and it doesn't hurt!

Did you know that it is a fact that more humans are killed by hippos in Africa than by any othere animal. That makes the hippo the most dangerous animal in Africa.:(

First of All, Is there really a hippo memorial up? Where is it!?!? If not, its not funny to joke about things like that! some of us really like hippos!

Also, yes Hippos are the most dangerous animal in Africa, and I bet they rank pretty high in the world. I would never mess with a hippo. The worst part is, if your in their river, man watch out, there can be thousands of them in that river, I've seen it on animal planet, man hippos as far as the eye can see!

I think we should have a Hippo event since there is so much interest in them, we can use Fanway (our fenway replica) in Blue. We could show off our hippo's, hippo costumes, or whatever, i think it would be fun, let me know what you all think.

Shall we put a hat on the hippo Hikaru? Or shall we leave it a pure hippo? Choices, choices....

Yes the Hippo Memorial is quite real, and very nice too!

I would like to note that I am now selling hippo suits with anti-grav capabilities for 50 dollars. Find me in world for info!

Question: Why do you say hippos are Republicans
I thought Elephants were republicans
and Democrats are Donkey, Mules
Libertarians are Penquins
so why do ya think hippos are republicans
and what about the Rhinos
hey, Have Hippos had a play written for
them the Rhinos have it is about people turning
into rhinos
"We are not men We are Rhinos"
