We Drink To Forget, Just Don't Forget To Drink

What is it with people who drink too much?  Why do they take leave of their senses?  I've seen enough stories of stupid drunk people lately that if I taped them I'd have a TV spin-off titled America's Funniest Blottos.  A couple of weeks ago I related the tale of two Aussies who shot each other in the buttocks after a heavy session with silly pops because they wanted to know if it would hurt.  Well turns out they aren't alone in the "I wonder what would happen if..." society. That was in Australia last week.  This week in the land down under some guy got kicked out of a pub and thought it would be a good idea to jump the fence of a wildlife centre and ride a crocodile.  Sure I would have done the same thing...not. This wasn't any crocodile, but a 16 foot, 1800 pound man-eating croc called Fatso.  "Hello, honey, I'll be a little late home from the pub.  Yeah, I just saw this crocodile I absolutely have to ride."  Somehow, this idiot got ...

Drink 'Till It Hurts

In an episode that can best be described as "cheeky" two buddies from Melbourne Australia are having a tough time sitting down this week. I think these two are wanna-be Darwin Society members.  Seems the two got to slugging back a few silly pops last week and at a certain point stupidity overtook reason. Geez, when my brothers and I get together, somewhat infrequently, we just tell jokes when we drink.  And the more we drink, the funnier the jokes get.  Or so it seems.  Not that we can remember them the next day, mind you. But these two from down under will remember their antics with their, ahem, down unders for some time to come. Seems these two beer besotted blokes thought it might be interesting to see what would happen if they shot each other in the buttocks with a BB gun.  They wanted to know if it would hurt. Well they proved their theory and apart from a bit of pain each thought they were fine.  Yeah, beer can have that affect on you.  Re...

All The News That's Fit To Drink

People can be silly sometimes.  And when they drink too much they can be even sillier. I often review news sites for story ideas both for this blog and my political satire blog Slings and Arrows .  When I really get desperate for something to write about, I take a peak at the "Odd News" websites.  They're usually good for a laugh - kinda like a print version of America's Funniest Videos.  You know what I mean.  Whenever I watch that show I marvel at how stupid people can be.  Not only that but they record their half-brained efforts and send them in to share their stupidity with millions upon millions of television viewers around the world.  They should re-name that show "America's Got Stupid People" or "So You Think You Can Jump Off A Roof Onto a Trampoline and Dunk a Basketball".  Too bad "Biggest Loser" is already taken. Where was I?  Oh, yeah, people can be even stupider when they drink. Take for example, Oleksandr Nayda of ...
