    I know the enevitable demise is coming but i just dont know when. Death from animal attacks is the worst way to go! Great story; execellent way to build interest in the last sentence.

    Nodd to quartermain; that cabin needs to be made out of brick:-)

    We stayed in canvas tents in Africa with the lions, leopards and elephants right outside—-never had a problem—-maybe we were “lucky”. A good, strong, wood cabin and locked door should suffice unless you go outside after sundown unarmed.

    So…Let me see if I understand this:

    A dead ape falls on Tarzan’s mom, and she’s in a coma for two weeks.Such a delicate constitution.

    Tarzan’s dad takes advantage of his mother’s confusion and the result is…Tarzan!

    Seems an unseemly way to be born, if you ask me.

    Okay, you guys…Tarzan says, “…AND MY LIFE BEGAN.” Okay, I see…I’m one of these guys who believes that life begins at conception. Is Tarzan saying that he was BORN that night? I guess we’ve already discussed that they didn’t show baby bumps in those days.
