Default Ok new fear - what the hell is

Beaver fever?!

If it's not bears trying to eat me, I'm going to get attacked by some bucked toothed psycho at a water hole..?!

I can't even google that for an explanation for fear of what results I might get

Beaver fever is what one might catch if you get eaten by the wrong bear.

where google is too scary to contemplate for a work network , wikipedia steps in... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giardiasis

Doesn't sound very pleasant - especially the "explosive diahhroea" - I really hope that's figurative rather than literal

It's the Cougars you've got to worry about

Speaking of wildlife - there is "something" living in my garage as we speak and from the noises I'm hearing, it doesn't sound too 'small'!

The cougars are particularly bad in Calgary. But seemingly they only go for young men.

I could try and answer with something witty about young men and how they smell, for example - the old pheromones or something which attracts the Cougars - but it could just be that the Cougars prefer, how shall I put it, well, young men !? If you know what I mean.

Perhaps the Cougars in question are all female?

mmm - I was hinting at the "or Gay" bit - but now I come to think about it, I am female and I prefer young males too
Better not let my 'in his late thirties' hubby see that bit
