Today, Jacob (3) said he wants a pet tiger. And he seemed serious. So I thought to myself, “why not?” And then I thought, “well…, it might eat us.” Then I thought, “but we only live once. Why are we so timid to do things that are slightly risky?” Then I thought, “Oh yea…, but the tiger would definitely eat us.”
Dang. This is too bad. Wouldn’t it be awesome to buy your little boy a real tiger? That would be so exciting.

You could find a trained tiger that was declawed and detoothed. I’ll look for one on Ebay.
Thanks Dan. I’m especially interested in a clawless, toothless, trained tiger which also plays well with small children. Let me know what you find on Ebay.
Siegfried and Roy tried this if I recall correctly.
You do make a good point — why are we ever afraid to try something new? After all, we know where we’re going when we die, right?
