Just lion around.

It’s one of the age-old questions of animal supremacy.  If a lion fought a tiger, who would win?  Well, zoo officials in Ankara, Turkey, found out the hard way which animal would win in a battle for supremacy after a Bengal tiger found a hole in its enclosure and escaped into the lion’s den next door.  As it turns out, a tiger has no problem killing a lion.  At least in this case, anyway.  The tiger, a Bengal tiger, killed the lion with ONE SWIPE of its paw!

The zoo still has six lions and two tigers left.  No word on whether or not one of the tigers is the killing tiger.  According to zoo officials, the visitors to the zoo were never in any danger; this grudge match was held between the animals themselves and no human visitors to the zoo were ever in danger in spite of the catfight.

I’m just a little surprised that the tiger killed the lion so easily, especially considering just how strong the lion is.  Do you think that maybe it was one of the weaker lions?  Or do you think this was just an exceptionally fierce tiger who just happened to catch the lion on a bad day?  I need more information on this incident, so I can properly judge this fight.

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
