What will you do about this funny case?

A donkey at an Algerian market ate the money of a man who
came to buy him, making the unfortunate buyer and the owner
wonder who the animal belongs to, an Algerian newspaper
reported.

Al Shuruk al Yawmi, a newspaper published in the northern
Algerian town of Tizi Ouzou, said the customer and the
seller were traditionally bargaining for price for too long
and failed to notice the donkey consuming the stack of
banknotes meant as a payment for him.

Neither the Tizi Ouzou district court nor the city court
were able to make a ruling that would satisfy both parties,
so the case was passed on to the Algerian Supreme Court in
the hope that it will resolve the bitter dispute.

Then what's your idea about this case?

Olivers site...When I read the post I thought it was some
sort of clever paradox mash up.Buridans Ass v Scroedingers
cat type of thing...I'm not into celebrity chefs.Honest.

*'celebrity' chef joke *

'I cooked a meal for my Dad last night and he said I should
be a celebrity chef."Was it that good?" I asked.
He replied,"No,but youre an arrogant prick." '

I've been catching Masterchef for some reason and the
scrutiny these budding chefs come up against is unbearable.
They talk of how the dish is presented, as if you'll be able
to see it after it leaves the plate and goes down your
gullet.

How the fuck do you let the camel you're about to buy eat
your money?
It's his fault and as you tend to pay the owner and not the
camel, i'd say the camel remains 'unsold'.

I'm really glad Steve won. He did some great dishes.

(My previous post wasn't meant to be a reply to atwood btw)

i would say the owner would be liable because his camel ate
the buyers money before the purchase was made. if someone's
animal destroys your property the animal's owner is liable
for damages, at least in the US.

Come on, this is a little different. And it's probably
bullshit.

First slap the donkey in the face for behaving so
inappropriately.

And I wouldn't want to buy such a useless donkey, anyway.
Just let it go free, cos donkies are silly.
