<div class="IPBDescription">My other turtle Cpl.Davis misshap</div> For those that may or may not have missed me in the forums last week (probably the latter) i was off hiking though the jungles on the Mexican Yucatan pinnisula. I went to go see the Ancient Myan Ruins and pyramids.
Very hot and very humid.
Back at the hotel we did this "releaseage of the baby turtles into the Ocean" thingy.
Everyone got a tiny baby turtle and we had to name it and then stick him/ her on the beach. Then they would crawl into the surf and go live happy turtle lives under the sea.
At least thats how it was supposed to go...
If anyone remembers my earlier thread about that turtle I saved from my lawn mover, having picked it up to move it out of the way back over the the pond only to have it **** all over me.
Anyways I got a cute little turtle, everyone else was naming theirs the usual stuff like Bob or what ever common name they use in the contries these people were from. (German guy next to me named his Norbert for example)
Mine was eagerly flapping his flippers in my hands. I named him Gorgy. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> So Im like, Ok Gorgy here you go have fun, U live like 80 years or more so you will out live me probably.
The Mexican guide in accented english "Ohoh kay evarybody lets give a applause to Yory! (G in spanish makes y sound I think)
Im like, no its -G-orgy.
AHh yea I mean Gorgy! Sorry he said.
I carefully set Gorgy down in the sand and off he goes. The first surf wave knocked him back but he got right back up and was carried into the ocean by the surf. I could see him 10 feet out bobbing near the surface flapping his little turtle legs furiously when suddenly it happened..
A shadow over head, then several more. OMG a whole flock of these hawk like mexican sea gull birds.
And one of the bastardos was circling around Gorgy!
I was like oh Crap! Go gorgy Go! Dive DIve DIve! No Gorgy Dive not the bird!
Then the bird swooped down and yanked Gorgy out of the water and proceeded to eat his head.
GORGY NOOOO <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo--> OOOOO!!! <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

There, there. I'm sure he's off to a better place now. A place where he plays with the other baby headless dead turtles. I'm sure he's quite happy <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

Man Vs. Nature: The Road To Victory
I woudve made his name really difficult for the mexican man. sometihng like "Quasimodo"
Okay, I'm lying, but there's two sides to every story. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> I do feel bad for little Gorgy though. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
everyone knows the alka seltzer trick, right? no sympathy. sorry. crap on my arm and you get to
<b><span style='color:blue'>experience the power of effervescent relief</span></b>
I swam with some of teh big turtl0rs in the Carribean (and they were BIG), and that was pretty cool. I suppose for every one that lives to adulthood there are a million more that get their heads eaten off.
Oh well. Nature is teh suck.
Technically, so do we, every single time we eat a steak or a bag of pork rinds. And you know, that greasy stuff you get at KFC's? That's chicken. Or <u>was</u> chicken. Just imagine it's seagull next time you eat it, and justice will be served.
But cynical facade aside, seeing this happen to something cute and cuddly is always kinda sad. You'll get over it someday.
As for the others: Shooting the seagull is not the solution. Try to sit down and convince it to convert to veganism. THEN blast it for eating the cute flowers, ugly beast.
You did know before hand that baby sea turtles have a one in ten chance of actually surviving their first year, right?...
Ah well, that's my two cents on the matter
Why did'nt you run over there and dive in the way?
Poor gorgy.
<span style='font-size:7.2pt;line-height:100%'>Maybe he has enough res to build a sensory chamber for his head..</span>
Or you could just name him 'Fade' and stomp on him right then. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
WTH
NOBODY KNOWS THE ALKA-SELTZER TRICK???
...
don't shoot the damn bird, you crude idiots. put an alka-seltzer in some kind of beach food, like inside a stub of hot dog, or inside a crumb of hamburger patty
and the birds insides get boiled and explode!!! pretty much.
anyway you see him fly around for a few minutes and then fall in agony, screaming. at least that's what my few did.
sorry, seagull lovers, if you're out there. yeah, i f*ckin prawnt 'em.
"What are you talking about? Animals kill each other all the time!"
"But not with nuclear arms! You can't hug your children with nuclear arms!"

But I was sort of laughing on the line where he was asking for a shotgun.....evil lorks on teh clorf need to be pwned to some extent....
Ah yes let's do the alka seltzer trick muahahaah!!
But if I wanted to,I would wring them by the neck and dig their heads into the sand,gg seagulls
EDIT: - the little incident of course.
Hope he's in gorgy heaven now.
