The other day while strolling around some Sydney suburbs I came across
a couple of bunya nuts on the footpath. Well, I guess they were bunya
nuts: larger than a human head, with a pineapple texture, and something
resembling yellow pus oozing out of cracks due to the heavy impact with
the concrete footpath after a 25 foot drop. (Just think of the size of
any compensation claim if one were to hit a pedestrian!)


The yellow stuff was probably a mashed brain from the impact with someone's
head. ;-)


Someone told me once that there's actually a death-rate (probably
recorded in the Australian Yearbook) from being dumped on by a Bunya
Pine tree! I like that notion! ;-D

Triffids of the world, unite!
