OK, maybe not directly, but the donkey was responsible for the death of 43 people and injuries of 16 more. Full Story.

A $40,000/year Accordion Player?
Only in America can an accordion player get paid $40,000+/year of taxpayer money.
Just In Case You Needed To Know…
You probably won’t be able to swallow $47,500 and get away with it.
I’ve Always Wanted To Do That
If I was to be considered a terrorist, I want to be because I hugged a bunch of people.
That’s a Resume Builder
A Pulitzer-Prize-winning editor’s job is now to make sure there are no butt cracks in the comics section. He’s not really happy with it, and it suing the paper.
Are My Neighbors Reading This?
I certainly wish my neighbors were reading this.
I must warn you now that I’m going to get a little “cranky ol’ man/dad/bastard” on you, here.
Despite the Money, Inmates Still Go Free?!?
I’m glad I’m not the only one that found it a bit peculiar that the Deschutes Co. Sheriff, who blitzed us to pieces with their Sheriff’s Levy ad campaign last year, has suddenly found a bunch more money — nearly $700,000 worth of extra cash.
So they get this extra money, their levy passes, and they still had to release inmates early last month. And even with this extra money, the Sheriff says he can’t help the early release of inmates. That’s comforting.
Oh, but don’t worry — because of this new found cash, they’ll be able to hire and promote some people. Hopefully those extra helping hands will keep those crooks they let out from robbing us again. He does plan on hiring a computer forensic examiner, so if you read this blog, you’ll know there’s a way to get a degree in that area of study entirely online.
Having a bad day?
In all your bad days, you’ve had nothing like this guy, who not only shot himself in the testicles, but managed to get himself five years in prison for possession of an illegal firearm. Full story.
Make Your Own Energy Drink
Just add one of these pills into your drink, and you’re ready to rock and roll. Quoting PRBop, I can picture the ads for this product being designed similar to the Alka Seltzer ads of yore: “Plop plop, fizz fizz… WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!”
Random Shared Photos
This guy takes random photos he finds on P2P networks and puts them online, and there are some weird ones there. Why people would share this stuff is beyond me. Reminds me of the LiveJournal Random Images generator, which is even more disturbing and shows quite a bit about the people who have LiveJournal accounts. They need to be egged.
