By Adam Fowler

Of course! Kill your own mammoth! Its head, trunk and tusks make for a nice wall decoration.kbs2244 wrote:
Siberia as a tourist site?
Since, today, you can kill a Siberian Tiger (350 left in the wild!) for US$ 200,000, a mammoth would probably run you between US$ 300,000 and 500,000 . . .
Why does a scientific experiment have to be a 'tourist site'? What kind of a shallow mindset is that?

Dick Cheney would want it in a 10 x 10 cage so he could shoot it from a helicopter with a machine gun.Kill your own mammoth!
Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.

There's no bag limit on lawyers and they're always in season.

Apparently so. I never heard of a lawsuit being filed over the matter. Anything for money.There's no bag limit on lawyers and they're always in season.
