What happens when you:<br>
1) have nothing to do<br>
2) own a sharp knife<br>
3) have a large lime<br>
4) own a patient cat<br>
5) drink too much tequila<br>
6) and it's football season?<br>
<br>
(An e-mail I received; just know that no cat was harmed in the carving of this lime. Dogs Rule!!)

Thanks.<br>

In a zoo in California, a mother tiger gave birth to a rare set of triplet tiger cubs. Unfortunately, due to complications in the pregnancy, the cubs were born prematurely and due to their tiny size, they died shortly after birth. <br>
<br>
The mother tiger after recovering from the delivery, suddenly started to decline in health, although physically she was fine. The veterinarians felt that the loss of her litter had caused the tigress to fall into a depression. The doctors decided that if the tigress could surrogate another mother's cubs, perhaps she would improve. <br>
<br>
After checking with many other zoos across the country, the depressing news was that there were no tiger cubs of the right age to introduce to the mourning mother. The veterinarians decided to try something that had never been tried in a zoo environment. Sometimes a mother of one species will take on the care of a different species. The only "orphans" that could be found quickly, were a litter of weaner pigs. The zoo keepers and vets wrapped the piglets in tiger skin and placed the babies around the mother tiger.<br>

Rollin (for now) with the energy program. Installing one of many bridges for Dvr's light rail system. This one is a little bridge, but a difficult one with a bunch of crap in the way.<br>

Not climbing, but it's a cool shot for the tough jobs crowd.
