wrecked Vipers

I came across a website that shows wrecked exotic vehicles.  I browsed through the Viper pages and was shocked.  There were hundreds of Vipers that had been badly wrecked.  On some of them, you can't help but wonder how in the world they managed to destroy a car that badly (like on this one and this one and this one.  Some of the pictures have a description with them of what happened.  A couple of interesting ones :

In this picture, it shows a Viper that was being fixed and the mechanic decided to take it on a "test drive", then flipped it twice.  How upset do you suppose the owner became?

In this picture, a bride to be was showing off her wedding present — a 2002 Dodge Viper RT-10 convertible — to the maid of honor the day before her wedding.  She lost control and ended upside-down in a ditch.  How sad!  (There was no injury report, so I guess they were okay.)

It makes me sad to see all these wrecked Vipers…  it also shows what can happen when you drive recklessly.  (I know wrecks can happen that aren't your fault, but some of the descriptions on the individual pics explain what happened.)  Here's the main page of the wrecked Vipers.  There's also lots of other cars.  Another interesting one I saw was a Hummer H2 that was driven off a cliff at 90 MPH… needless to say, it got scuffed up a bit.

(I would've included some of the pictures here, but they were copyrighted, so you'll just have to click the links to see them.)

!!! BREAD IS DANGEROUS !!!

Research on bread indicates that :

1. More than 98 percent of convicted felons are bread users.
2. Fully HALF of all children who grow up in bread-consuming households score below average on standardized tests.
3. In the 18th century, when virtually all bread was baked in the home, the average life expectancy was less than 50 years; infant mortality rates were unacceptably high; many women died in childbirth; and diseases such as typhoid, yellow fever, and influenza ravaged whole nations.
4. More than 90 percent of violent crimes are committed within 24 hours of eating bread.
5. Bread is made from a substance called "dough." It has been proven that as little as one pound of dough can be used to suffocate a mouse. The average American eats more bread than that in one month!
6. Primitive tribal societies that have no bread exhibit a low incidence of cancer, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's disease, and osteoporosis.
7. Bread has been proven to be addictive. Subjects deprived of bread and given only water to eat begged for bread after as little as two days.
8. Bread is often a "gateway" food item, leading the user to "harder" items such as butter, jelly, peanut butter, and even cold cuts.
9. Bread has been proven to absorb water. Since the human body is more than 90 percent water, it follows that eating bread could lead to your body being taken over by this absorptive food product, turning you into a soggy, gooey bread-pudding person.
10. Newborn babies can choke on bread.
11. Bread is baked at temperatures as high as 400 degrees Fahrenheit! That kind of heat can kill an adult in less than one minute.
12. Most American bread eaters are utterly unable to distinguish between significant scientific fact and meaningless statistical babbling.

In light of these frightening statistics, it has been proposed that the following bread restrictions be made:

1. No sale of bread to minors.
2. A nationwide "Just Say No To Toast" campaign, complete celebrity TV spots and bumper stickers.
3. A 300 percent federal tax on all bread to pay for all the societal ills we might associate with bread.
4. No animal or human images, nor any primary colors (which may appeal to children) may be used to promote bread usage.
5. The establishment of "Bread-free" zones around schools.

I was just thinking recently how I'd like for my yard to be greener, and then I got this e-mail which offers a free way to make your yard green.  How convenient!

Toad Suck Daze

I forgot to mention that I went to Toad Suck Daze recently.  I've been a few times before, but this time I tried gator on a stick.  (At this town festival, you can get about any food on a stick.)  And you'll never guess what the gator tasted like… okay, so you probably will — it tasted like chicken.  🙂  It was a little bit different, but strangely similar.  (BTW, not all non-domesticated animals taste like chicken — deer doesn't, neither does coon, nor squirrel, or lamb.)

Anyway, this got me to thinking — what's the strangest animal you've eaten?
