LAS VEGAS -- Roy Horn has never spoken publicly about being mauled nearly fatally by a 380-pound white tiger named Montecore.

I still don't understand why he didn't just make the tiger disappear. What an idiot.

I'm watching it right now. Leave it to NBC to turn it into a replusive melodrama. It's so over the top. I'm watching it only because I want to know what happened to Roy. But it really is too much. It's got the dramatic music, the tense drumbeats -- sheesh! WHY?

Why not just a straightforward account?
