Bear eats Monkey

This is the strangest news story I've read in quite some time. I believe in my heart that the rest of the monkeys will form a gang and, not to long from now, I'll be posting another link entitled "Monkey gang takes revenge!"

Keith,
What's your take on the report " Muslims journey to see Koran message of 'wonder fish' tuna".
The otherwise ordinary fish caught the attention of fishmonger Omar Mohammed Awadh who pulled it out of a catch when he noticed what seemed to be Arabic writing among the scales near its tail, officials said.

Arabic scholars examined the fish and determined the writing was a Koranic verse meaning "God is the greatest of all providers," said Hassan Mohamed Hassan, an education officer with the National Museums of Kenya in Mombasa

Perhaps this same message was written on the monkey's fur and the bear took it to mean he was being provided with a divine meal. Honest mistake really, no cause for revenge.

In my heart, I still think the monkeys are coming back hard. Eye for an eye, baby!

In ancient times, when ninja would recieve scrolls detailing such ill news they could avoid such horrible events and bad luck by quickly forwarding these scrolls to as many friends as possible.

Often they would think of a wish, and if they forwarded the scroll to enough people it would come true in 24 hours.

Its a shame we stopped that practice and there is no modern day equivalent.
I should have gone with an unsalted and butterless kernel.
