Crocs
 
We recently returned from vacation in Costa Rica.

Part of our travel was by boat in Croc waters.

We were given life vests while in the boat and wondered how good they were against the crocs if we fell into the water.

What is better, to drown or to be chewed?

After being attacked by a crocodile the result is usually to be BOTH chewed and drowned. Probably neither is better. The people who know the answer are dead. I feel silly answering such a silly question.

I wonder if Croc's think we taste like chicken?

Here's a fascinating account by an Australian philosopher who survived two death rolls with a crocodile in northern Australia. No mention of chicken flavouring alas...

Only a taste test could tell us if chicken is as good or better tasting than tourists.

Do you suppose that rude and loud might make a difference?

I wonder how some mothers-in-law might taste? Sour? Sweet? Sweet and sour [with hot sauce]?

Then again, a hunk might not taste as good as they may look.

Perhaps one of those telephone solicitors [who call at the dinner hour] might undertake to find out. Might be more useful than the stuff they regularly call about.

GW--LOL, too much time on your hands! :)

As for mothers-in-law, I know a young man who'd be interested in finding out! LOL!!!

Thanks folks.

Yes, too much time on my hands. My wife says so too.

Thanks for the answers, it gave us a good laugh.
