Looks like us guys were on to something...

One of the longest-running spousal debates may now be settled in favor of men and for the sake of little boys.

Leave the toilet seat up, some British doctors now say. The reason: a rising trend for heavy wooden and ornamental toilet seats to fall down onto the penises of unsuspecting (and just potty-trained) toddlers.

Dr. Joe Philip and his colleagues of Leighton Hospital, Crewe, in England detail such penis-crush injuries in the December issue of the journal BJU International. The team reports on four boys between the ages of 2 and 4 who were admitted to hospitals with injuries serious enough to require an overnight stay.

Some woman's fool of a son thought it was okay to repair a car gas tank, with a full measure of gas still in it, in the basement where the gas water heater (which had a pilot light) was also located.

Several firefighters were injured when the tank exploded as they were trying to safely remove it (the injuries weren't life-threatening and the worst burns was 2nd degree, as they were wearing their safety gear). The idiot's mom apologized, but defended him by saying he didn't know gas vapors could catch fire.

Heard this on talk radio yesterday and thought of this thread...

"Moscow's medical workers discovered a magnificent gift of a sixteen-year-old girl Natalya Demkina from Saransk. The girl possesses “dual vision”. She is capable of discerning a person's internal organs without using X-ray or ultrasound."

Heard about this during our AHL hockey game tonight. Mad me chuckle at the picture I have of the guy passed out on the Zamboni!

Freeze!

Twins girls, each one with different color skins

I thought this article was very interesting, although still weird in its own sense. An interracial couple, two sets of twin daughters, and with each set...one with the skin color of their dad, and the other the skin color of their mom:

Label this entry under IRONIC or UNFORTUNATE WORDING:

http://edition.cnn.com/2009/US/01/07...out/index.html

When I was watching The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer yesterday, the story related to this link was on the new scroll and it simply said: Porn Industry Seeks Stimulus Package... I died laughing... the scroll writer/editor is my new hero.

I'm surprised the leg hair didn't suffocate the birds.

Ohio Man calls 911 while Making Drug Deal

http://www.nbc4i.com/cmh/news/state_...ug_deal/12443/

Police in Cleveland say a man who called 911 put the dispatcher on hold to make a drug deal.

Police say the 20-year-old man called 911 Saturday night to report that two men with guns were watching him near West 44th and Clark Avenue and hung up.

The dispatcher called him back, and during the call the man asked the dispatcher to hold on and made a drug deal.
A voice can be heard on the recording saying, “What you need? A 10-pack? A 10-pack, alright.“ A 10-pack is slang for a bundle of heroin.

Ok, first, how was she able to drive a car? And, second, how was she able to drive a car for so long without wrecking it with those monstrocities in the way?
