A 42-year-old guy in Australia was\u00a0out hunting when he walked through an area with shallow water.\u00a0 And he thought he stepped on a log, but it was really a 15-foot crocodile that spun around and bit him in the CROTCH.\u00a0 He started punching it in the nose and managed to get away.\u00a0 He did an interview later on from his hospital bed.<\/p>\n
______________________________________________________________________________<\/strong><\/p>\n Experts say Hybrid \u201csuper pigs\u201d may soon become a problem in Southwestern Ontario,<\/p>\n The result of cross-breeding between wild and domestic pigs, this invasive species has been spotted throughout the region \u2013 with confirmed sightings from Windsor to Brantford and the group that tracks sightings throughout the province, has a photo of a wild pig taken on Sept. 1 just east of Leamington.<\/p>\n \u201cThis is an invasive species originally brought to North America (in the 1980s) for meat production,\u201d said Ryan Brook, a professor at the University of Saskatchewan.<\/p>\n They are currently completely out of control (in Saskatchewan). This is exactly what you don\u2019t want in Ontario. <\/em>\u00a0\u201cThey will literally eat almost anything,\u201d Brook said. \u201cThey\u2019ll go into fields and eat crops and just destroy them. They use their nose to tear the ground up, so the damage is especially devastating to crops and ecosystems.\u201d<\/p>\n While still rare in Southwestern Ontario, the pigs are \u201ca looming problem,\u201d says Larry Davis, an Ontario Federation of Agriculture representative. Built to survive, these hardy hogs will have little difficulty enduring a Southwestern Ontario winter, he said.<\/p>\n ______________________________________________________________________________<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n ENTERTAINMENT<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n (Linda Hamilton, Arnold Schwarzenegger)<\/p>\n (Jesse Plemons, Robert De Niro, Al Pacino)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n ______________________________________________________________<\/p>\n Emilia Clarke was on “The Tonight Show” and said the person responsible for the “Game of Thrones”\u00a0coffee\u00a0cup was Conleth Hill, who played Varys.\u00a0 (From “The Tonight Show” on Wednesday, October 30, 2019)<\/p>\n ______________________________________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n <\/p>\n TODAY IS\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n 1997 [22] \u201cTitanic,\u201d directed by James Cameron, and starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet, premieres at the Tokyo International Film Festival (won 10 Academy Awards including \u2018Best Picture\u2019, 1998)<\/p>\n _____________________________________________________________________________<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n COUNTRY MUSIC NOTE<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n Shedaisy<\/strong>\u00a0earned their first gold album for their debut,\u00a0The Whole Shebang, in 1999.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n _____________________________________________________________________________<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n RANDOM REPORT<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n 1\u00a0\u00a0 In Colombia, dried ants have replaced popcorn as the typical movie theater snack.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n <\/p>\n GOOD NEWS <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n A guy in North Carolina named Ronnie Foster has been fighting colon cancer.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n And he was recently heading to his final round of chemo.\u00a0 So he was already in a pretty good mood.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Then on his way to his appointment, he stopped at a gas station, bought a one-dollar lottery ticket, and won five bucks.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n So then he bought two more tickets.\u00a0 And one of them ended up hitting for 200 GRAND.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n He claimed his prize on Friday, and ended up with $141,501 after taxes.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Ronnie says he has pretty good health insurance, which covered most of his cancer treatments.\u00a0 But he still ended up with some hefty medical bills.
