Dave, why "feel upset"?
The 'roos are to be eaten anyway... so why not use the leather to the most
of it? Isn't it what we do with pigs, use their guts as "cover" for sausages
and similars?

Pedro <== amused by the sort of thing one learns from down under...  ;-)

Well, when you look at it that way, 'upset' does seem a bit odd. I just tend to
visualize these 'roos still hopping around sans something important to them,
that's all.

  That's an interesting mental image.  I wonder if they play
  cricket with those wheelchair-bound frogs...?

I suppose they do. 'Gimme my legs <RIBBIT> Gimme my legs'

  Anyways, I first heard about roo-scrotum baggies about four
  years ago.  It's up there with all kinds of pointlessly
  disgusting things that serve as a personal "DO NOT TOUCH"
  (or, more likely, "STAY FAR AWAY FROM") sign, like dried
  baby alligators encased in lucite, George Burns-lookin'
  gorillas carved out of coconuts, or Manties.  (don't ask)

Believe me, I won't! I've been ,uh, lucky enough to see the other items though.
It's tough to purge those images from my memory.
