A TERRITORY girl is lucky to be alive after she was mauled by a savage dog.
Seven-year-old Meg Croton and her brother Connor, 9, had been feeding their family's dog - an eight-year-old mastiff cross - in their Humpty Doo back yard when the girl was attacked by the vicious hound.
"I tripped on a rock and fell, and I think I kicked his leg," Meg recalled the attack. "And then it hurt very badly and he was on top of me and ripped on my head. "But my brother saved my life."

And now for something completely irrelevant:
`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
“Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!”
He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought —
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.
And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!
One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.
“And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!’
He chortled in his joy.
`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
Honestly, you pose more hypotheticals than Schrodinger.
I pick "D".
[but it's still technically a passing grade]
Can he?
Is there an instance where you know that Satan quoted God's Word accurately?
Brillig Salamander! Love that! Also I think that you have solved Shibumi's riddle about the language.
Here is another clue that proves it plus the responses make much more sense than what we have seen demonstrated tonight.
Yeah, I just don’t know how to solve that.
All I can see, however, is the tiny little puppy I brought home and clutched to my bosom as though I'd given birth to him, myself.
I see him though love-blind eyes, I reckon.
He has totally enslaved me....he is a joyous hulk of always-entertaining, wildy worshipful, an insanely devoted big clown and I believe God specially blessed me with him, for which I am forever grateful.
[um, yes, I am rather fond of him...why do you ask?]...LOL
The cat is a Cheshire/Shrödinger mix, named Ho Chi Zen.
Ho Chi Zen also dislikes adult dogs, but never eats Hot Dog Buns.
!!!!!
Beautiful dog!!!!! He looks extremely intelligent too. Awwww! There is no mistaking that he is one exceptional dog!
How old is he now?
It’s past your bedtime, young man!
Ah, yes.
No doubt it was the gutless Dog Poisoning Posse.
What?
Are they too cowardly to come out and “play” themselves, tonight?....:)
Do a post search on the animal torturing lot and then tell me how much you like them.
You’re welcome to them and I take every one of their malignant opinions of me as the *highest* compliment I could ever receive.
FYI, Alice’s lyrics have *always* reflected his upbringing as a minister’s son.
But, I suppose if you’d done more than a quick Wiki on him, you’d know that.
Oh, how cute.
You Googled ‘Along Came A Spider’.
[or your paralegal did]
If you actually knew the album, you’d know that that song finaly culminates in the beautiful song “Salvation”.
Yes, I think you’re going fit in quite well with your new “friends”.
[ask them for the Prestone Meatball recipe...I hear dogs can’t resist it]
Actually, much like a lawyer, there’s always that little “twisting” of words.
Imagine that.
Have you ever seen Monty Python’s “Jabberwocky”?
Bizarre, even for them, but hilarious.
He’s 14 months old and going through his “Doberteens” so he’s much like a very clever but naughty teenaged boy....:))
[luckily, he ~won’t~ be asking to borrow the car]...LOL
...I'm going to bed.
He’s a baby? Wow!
He looks mature and from the photos, he looks very intelligent! You have got yourself a beautiful animal there.
Just wow!
I am always amazed by the number of people I encounter who have Jesus on their home page but Satan coming out of their keyboard.
Psst! It’s terribly rude to scold yourself in front of yourself. Apologize directly to ... yourself. Young man. Sir.
