Yay, I'm in my favorite spot, 8th place!  Always my favorite, and it's been months since I've been there.  Thanks for passing me, David!  :)

I was reading about a bull that laid down in a snow storm and his *ahem* got stuck to the ground...they had to go out with warm towels and water to get him up...

Couldn't they have just peed on him? That's what you're supposed to do if a kid touches metal with his tongue and gets frozen stuck. Good way to teach him not to do it again, too!

Course, it works best if you're a man.  :laugh:

Congratulations, Jeff!

I would use warm water rather than pee on a child, especially in his mouth.... where did you hear that?

Well, I was being slightly facetious. Of course you wouldn't pee in a kid's mouth if there's warm water handy. But I'd rather use pee than have the child rip the skin off his tongue.

Pee is mostly warm water, usually available, reasonably sterile and nontoxic. In a pinch, you can even drink it. So yeah, I have heard stories of dads using pee in this situation. At least one dad, I'm pretty sure.

And as for the bull, I don't think I'd worry about pee at all.

well yeah, in an emergency situation where water wasnt' available....that does make sense..

I was always told if someone gets bitten by a jelly fish, you should pee on them. It takes the sting away, and I think it makes the area heal faster too. There must be a chemical present in the pee that neutralizes the jelly fish sting.

Dogs have owners. Cats have staff.
