One September day in 2004, a tourist videotaped an event now called "the Battle at Kruger." Many of you have probably already seen this, but for those who haven't . . .
You can find more information about this extraordinary video of an encounter between a crocodile, lion, and water buffalo here.
You can watch the video in many places, but here's one.
It began like any other day. The alarm. Coffee and eggs. The crossword.
I thought I saw promise in a brillant blue sky, but, yet, there was something. Something was up there and it was coming for me. I spun and looked with horror as the evil-eyed cat began to ooze down the stairway. Horror. The horror . . . everything was furry. The End.
