Hi Friends,

This morning I am a bit lazy so the translation is an automatic one via online
translator, sorry for the funny sentences if any (I mean abt the translation,
not abt the info itself, hi hi !).

A dog's life SYDNEY, Australia (AP) -- a man bailed out of a fine of 1.000
Australian dollars (603 euros) to have attacked three police officers and their
dog. The thing would be banal and would not deserve a line if the court had not
judged Thursday that the kicks to the animal were twice more serious than the
aggravated assault inflicted to his masters. The court of Sydney indeed imposed
a fine of 400 Australian dollars (241 euros) for cruelty towards the animals,
while the aggravated assault towards the police officers were worth each one to
them only 200 dollars! For John Brogden, a politician of the province of
New-Wales of the South, the culprit should rather have been locked up. It is
necessary that the judges cease feeling "sorry for poor fellow which had
misfortune, one day, to appear before them", he declared. AP

Should I have a dog, I would ask him if he is OK to go to VK-land and if he
accepts me by his side ;o))

73/72!
