For an instant I stood there quite paralyzed. Then I yelled for my
husband, who luckily came running and killed the snake with the
handle
of a broom. Anna, who was only three at the time, was quite
interested in
the whole business. Indeed I had to pull her out of the way or she’d
probably have leant over the bath to get a better look!
We found out later that it was a black mamba, a poisonous kind of
snake. It had obviously been fast asleep, curled up as the bottom of
the
nice warm water-pipe. It must have had an awful shock when the cold
water came trickling down! But nothing to the shock I got! Ever since
then
I’ve always put the plug in firmly before running the bath water.
A young boy was playing with a ball in the street. He kicked it too
hard,
and it broke the window of a house and fell inside. A lady came to the
window with the ball and shouted at the young boy, so he ran away,
but he
still wanted his ball back. A few minutes later he returned and
knocked at
the door of the house, and when the lady answered it, he said, “My
father’s
going to come and fix your window very soon.”
After a few minutes a man came to the door with tools in his hands,
so
the lady let the boy take his ball away.
When the man finished fixing the window, he said to the lady, “That
will
cost you exactly sixty thousand rupiahs.”
“But aren’t you the father of the young boy?” the woman asked,
looking
surprised. “No,” he answered, equally surprised. “Aren’t you his
mother?”

Contoh:
Town ‘Contaminated’
Moscow (JP)– A Russian journalist has uncovered evidence at
another Soviet
nuclear catastrophe, which killed 10 sailors and contaminated an
entire town.
Yelena Vazrshavskya is the first journalist to speak to people who
witnessed
the explosion of a nuclear submarine at the naval base of Shkotovo-
22 near
Vladivostock.
The accident, which occurred 13 months before the Chernobyl
disaster,
spread radio active fall-out over the base and nearby town, but was
covered up
by officials of the then Soviet Union. Residents were told the
explosion in the
reactor of the Victor-class submarine during a refit had been a
‘thermal’ and not
nuclear explosion. And those involved in the clean-up operation to
remove more
than 600 tons of contaminated material were sworn to secrecy.
A board of investigators was later to describe it as the worst accident
in the
history of the Soviet Navy.
MELBOURNE, Jan 22 (UPI) — Fire authorities in four Australian

states are to
control bushfires fanned by strong winds and searing temperature.
The Australian reported Sunday that blazes continued in south
Australia,
Tasmania, Western Australia and Victoria, where up to six homes
have
destroyed. In South Australia, much of Adelide is engulfed in thick
smoke. The
firefighters who are confronted by blast-furnace winds try to bring the
flames
under control.
At Robertstown in the state’s mid-north, more than 2,500 acres have
already burned. Another bushfire, started by lightening, charred the
earth near
Mouth Flat on the southern side of Kangoroo Island, while Ngarkat
Conservation
Park, in the State’s upper-southeast, is also a blaze.
A 7,500-acre fire at Mount Agnew in Zeehan, in the state’s west,
broke
containment lines Saturday afternoon, jumping a road and coming
close homes.
The most serious fires were in Voctoria, where up to six homes were
destroyed by a fire near the town of Anakie, 36 miles west of
Melbourne.
In Tasmania, falling temperatures and patchy rain brought some relief
to
firefighters, who continued to monitor 22 blazes across the state.
