lots of stuff, rats, spiders, dermestid beetles. the one thing I'd never want to be is a male emperor penguin. as one, here is your life; you arrive with all the other emperors at the end of summer and climb onto the snow pack of antarctica. you find a female, mate and when she lays the egg you get to walk around with it balanced on your feet for 4 months. mean while the gals head back out to sea for bon bons and tea while you and the rest of your pals huddle up against hurricane force winds and temps about 1.5 million degrees below zero. months go by and your chick hatches, and you regurgitate a meal for the little guy. that was the only thing you had on your stomach, you haven't eaten in months and are starting to get cranky. finally the females come back and you get a break from the around the clock parenting gig and get to go have some sushi.
yeah, yeah, circle of life blah, blah, blah. no thanks!

No, when the "gals" head back out to sea, they ARE the bon bons and tea for the Killer Whales and Great Whites.

Tom, if I come back(don't really believe in it) I want it to be as a Great Dane. A male with a big bladder....among other things! There's a number of people I'd like to raise a leg to.

when she lays the egg you get to walk around with it balanced on your feet for 4 months
In my experience, human marriage may not be all that different.  And look at the bright side.... at least she was gone for four months.

two Irishmen were in a pub, exchanging solemn talk about the after life. one says to the other 'if i die first will you pour a fine bottle of Irish whiskey over my grave?' the other thinks about it and says 'do you mind if I filter it for you first?'
