thinks! "the never ending story"?? how do they know

from the Darwin awards


(1986, United Kingdom) In 1986 the UK saw its most violent storm in over 350 years. Wind speeds exceeded 90 mph, and an incredible amount of damage was done to property and people up and down the UK. This story made several of the Kent newspapers at the time and, like most rational beings, I found it difficult to believe. But it is absolutely true.

In Margate in the county of Kent, there are many tall poplar trees, and it's not uncommon for houses in the rural areas to be surrounded by woods and spinneys. During the 1986 storm, millions of trees were uprooted by the gales. One hapless resident of Margate owned a house that bordered a small wood, on the edge of which was three massive poplars. The wind had felled one, which had come to rest across his back garden. The other two poplars had been bent over just far enough to lodge their tops under the soffit of this guy's roof.

The foliage of the bent trees was blocking almost all the light from his upstairs bedroom windows. The owner decided something had to be done. Now, this chap did not own a chainsaw nor could he reach the trunks of the trees from the house--even when leaning out of the window.

He decided to shinny up one of the trees and saw off the top while sitting astride the trunk, with his feet wedged against his roof gutter. He had plenty of time to reflect on the wisdom of his position, as it took him almost 20 minutes of sawing before the tree--which experts estimate held the energy equivalent to small field gun--parted company with the portion trapped by the soffit, and sprang back upright.

His body was found in a neighbor's garden over a mile away. The police surgeon stated that his neck probably broke during the whiplash and he would therefore have known nothing of the impact with the ground.

if you talked to yourself, would you learn anything new??

Of course you would... eventually. Stands to reasen, dunnit? (sits when really really forced to)

But then, I'm Nobody's Fool

Howd'ya do?

welcome Evadne, I have read your posts on Abbi's thread, but I will not be serious here, will on Abbi's

you don't have to be crazy to post here, but it helps

Call me Ev ifyalike...it usually gets shortened to that after a while.

Just popped over really to say hi,really.

"Hi"

I probably class as a grade 2 crazy; life's too grim not to lift two fingers and take the mickey out of it as it attempts to deliver yet another kick in the doodahs. Fotunately, life's a lousy aim sometimes....and I've borrowed one of those sports boxes from A Friend for when it

I'm alright, but I wish I had my own spoon.

I won't be any trouble, honest. Look... I'll just sit in the corner and chew my left big toe and make an occasional cryptic comment when the toenail runs out.

But I'll be serious on Abbi's thread, cause she's an absolute sweetheart.

Ev! it is then, thank you, if you go to my p/space, not far down is a link, to go and join the "Fools Guild",(me boss!) new members are always welcome

From the Darwin Awards:

After stopping for drinks at an illegal bar, a Zimbabwean bus
driver found that the 20 mental patients he was supposed to be
transporting from Harare to Bulawayo had escaped. Not wanting to admit his
incompetence, the driver went to a nearby bus stop and offered everyone
waiting there a free ride. He then delivered the passengers to the mental
hospital, telling the staff that the patients were very excitable and prone to
bizarre fantasies

The deception wasn't discovered for 3 days.

like it.

once watched a cowboy film and the wagons formed a circle etc, then camera panned out, they were surrounded by 2 injun's

its a dark day looming ahead for fools, the local elections are coming. The competition will be on again between real fools and political fools, I'm safe, impossible to convert me to sanity..
