Sorry to gate crash, but some of you probably don't visit the Camapaign or Cake Stop forum, so I am posting it here and if the mods are conducive, it will remain.

The world convention on trade in animal parts Find it here is in Bangkok between the 3rd and 14th of March.

Rhino horn is worth a staggering $65,000 per kg. Its like hair and nails but the Taiwanese, Vietnamese, Chinese and Indonesians think that it has magical powers. Ivory is seen as a 'good investment' particularly in China. Tiger bone is used in all sorts of medication. It is totally unproven and must be placebo as confiscated bones believed to be Tiger bones were in fact 9 out of 10 times, anything else.

    Rhino horns are how much? fuck me, think of the crap I could buy with the money. Where can I get one? Are they available to buy online?

    Funny - but all it takes for evil to prosper is for good men to do nothing.

    Can you not put your differences with other forumites aside and think for a moment ?

    What differences?

    This is the Crudcatcher - expect childishness and p!$$ taking. Put it in The Hub and you'll get a sensible reply.

    Funny you should try to use that quote actually, as posting that, in here makes you look a bit of a burke.

    As mentioned, the hub is^^^ thataway.

    I'm just disappointed that you wanted the were explicit pictures but I did not see a single gash, pair of norks or even a 70s legal Keegan open bush in a single one.

    And no you're wrong, all it takes for evil to prosper is a job in kids TV in the 1970s

    To answer your question(s) Why would you say it's funny? It kinda negates your OP, I did think for a moment, I thought that tweet that Taylor Swift put out about winning a Grammy was quite funny (I even replied), I also put my difference aside, I'm the only one that saw a huge profit.


    On a side note, I know someone who has some horses they don't want, how much do you think Tesco's will give me for them?

    I once bought a baby gorilla in Zaire from a poacher for US$50
    To be honest I was quite disappointed, it tasted like chicken.. I should have went to KFC and saved some money
