what was your first clue?!?!

From the Department of Redundancy Department, I am revisiting yesterday's post because I found this article about the Tiger escape in the San Francisco Zoo that killed 1 and injured a few others. According to zoo officials, the wall seperating the tiger from people was too low. YA THINK! The tiger escaping and killing someone wasn't evidence enough of that fact? My favorite part of the article is right under the headline where it says that the wall being too short MIGHT have contributed. Really? I also enjoyed the part where it said the wall was "far shorter" then they thought it was. Little bit late to come to that conclusion isn't it? I'm sure that makes the vitcim's parents feel better too. And not only were they off, but the wall was about half the height that they thought it was! Not like it was a foot or two either. They were off by 8 feet on what they thought was a 20 ft. fence! I would think that someone would have wandered by on the way to feed the damn tiger and noticed that the wall seemed a little low. Lets hope that after these guys lose their jobs at the zoo that they aren't in charge of building the suicide-prevention fence along Aurora.
