Donkeys kill more people annually
than plane crashes or shark attacks. (So, watch your ***! )

Why the heck do donkeys kill anyone?

I think of donkeys and I see calm benign creatures calmly walking by.
Same thing goes with Penguins. Alan says "Penguins are killers".

Penquins??? Donkeys???

GOOD LORD!!!

I imagine it's because people aren't careful around donkeys and get kicked in the head. You know, while trying to shoe a mule. Penguins? No clue!

A duck's quack doesn't echo, and no one knows why.

We have alot of donkeys in the out lying areas like Red Rock and the donkeys will stand in the road. There have been many accidents with cars running into them.

A good friend of mine hit one while on a motorcycle and it almost killed him...Killed the donkey though...Sue

This is cool, I just learned that up until the recent past, the D.C. fire department used to wash all the statues with the fire hoses. I love it!
