I had nearly forgot about a previous IOtD that should have taught me how ruthless the Chinese can be. Not only do I abhor their way of thinking. It's their methods that really suck.

I can't believe I couldn't get the link to work. How do you do that anyway? It's in the archives of IOtD. This one was the one that helped me find the Cellar to begin with.

That's because you used URL="http://http://cellar.org/showthread.php?t=4776&highlight=civet+cat+kill"]IOtD[/url]

instead of http://www.cellar.org/showthread.php?t=4776.

I left out one parenthesizes so it would show the URL a not "IOtD".

Not to worry. Verily as we sleep, China is making a deal with Venezuela, to buy their oil with all that Walmart money.

Somehow, I feel confident that they will find a way to make that oil burn as dirty as possible.

I wonder how you say spay or neuter in Chinese. I'm prone to believe they just love to kill. They prolly signed bombs as children......

Hey, you can't equate fluffy puppies to those slimy, evil, pets of the Devil.

Point taken. I guess that is mildly hypocritic. I've been bitten by snakes and I seem to have a personal dislike for them. I wouldn't dream of launching a county-wide massacre, however.

And if I were walking my pet snake down the street, you wouldn't take it and beat it to death in front of me, right?
