I need to learn this photobucket program so I can link pictures in my posts instead of on the gallery all the time, like you have done with the picture above!

I saw that show about the Australian jellyfish. They were capturing them to study them, and the two divers got stung in the face. They were both in the hospital for 1 week in agonizing pain!

I saw them today too on the Travel Channel, about the Great Barrier Reef. Scary!

I still want to see the Great barrier reef though!
Never been to Australia, but that's on my want to do list.

I think on pass on that Big Rock though where the aborigines live , forgot the name. I am happy to just see it on TV.

I'm a fraidy cat of airplanes. Alot of the aborigines in Australia are very civilized. Dress like we do, speak English. BTW, the number one deadliest animal was the female mosquito. Kills around 2 million a year.

Yep, skeeters and malaria. I had a malarial type of illness from a tick. Nasty chills and shakes. Fortunately not fatal, but still nasty. I am over it, but took a looong time for the docs to figure out what it was. The mediciane for it is really expensive, $600 bucks a bottle and I took it for 4 months!
So, in third world countries, I am sure they can't afford it, and some strains I hear are incurable.
I take a lot of B-Complex and skeeters don't like the smell of it. Works great.

Good tip, Mango! Will have to remember that! They never touch mr. dd--he's got that dark, olivey, mediterannean skin--tans in one day. skeeters don't like all that olive oil i guess!
