Haplessly Lobbying for that Darwin Award

Texting while walking, woman falls off pier.
"Miller’s husband and a 19-year old bystander jumped into the water to help her reach a ladder that led back to the top of the pier. A police officer also used a flotation device attached to a rope to help guide the group to the ladder. "
All, A-OK.

This article then goes on to detail university research (research!) about the frequency and severity of falling incidents and automobile accidents incurred by people talking or texting while walking.

Lobbying Hard for the Darwin Award

"I've never seen anything like this in my 34-year-career," said Friedrich-Wilhelm Lach, chief executive of regional utility Ueberlandwerke Leinetal GmbH, told Reuters. "It's incredibly dangerous and utterly stupid."

What Darwin Got Wrong

"I'm looking forward to reading this book because I believe that unlike the intelligent design people, Fodor and Piatelli-Palmarini are looking in the correct place for proving the model incorrect in a scientific manner, assuming that it is actually incorrect.

As I have pointed out on numerous occasions, the natural selection component of TENS is a logical and philosophical hypothesis, not a scientific one. Even Richard Dawkins has reluctantly admitted in his latest book that it is entirely plausible natural selection is not the mechanism by which evolution operates, and since after 150 years there is still no significant scientific evidence that Darwinian natural selection takes place, I expect that it will not be too terribly long before Darwinism takes its rightful place with phrenology, astrology, and other pseudo-sciences."

We Interupt This Holiday...

...with The World.

Yes, it's still messed up.

Man Attempts to Set Off Explosives on Detroit-Bound Airplane.

"Federal officials and police are interviewing a Nigerian man, who allegedly tried to "explode" a powdery substance aboard a Northwest flight from Amsterdam to Detroit, injuring himself and two other passengers, law enforcement officials said.

...He was flying from Nigeria to the United States for a religious seminar, according to his entry visa, which was issued June 16, 2008 and was good until June 12, 2010."

Per usual, our indolent media watch dogs make no attempt to inform us to which religious seminar that might be.

White House declares failed plane bomb "an attempted act of terrorism."
Seriously? What was your first clue?

Deranged Woman Attacks Pope Benedict XVI during Midnight Mass.
Pope unhurt, but Cardinal Roger Etchegaray taken to hospital. This same nutjob tried to attack the Pope last year.

I'm sure a death FATWA will be issued against this woman today. Oh. Wait... which religion does that again? Don't ask ABC News.

In other news, from an eminently satisfied TIME: No Churchgoing Christmas for the First Family.

With record unemployment, during the worst economy since the Great Depression, Obamas Rent $8.9 Million Hawaii Home for Holidays.

Good thang the hated boooshitler didn't pull a stunt like this or the ankle biting, media lap dogs might go 24/7 apesh1t ballistic with outrage.

Moving on - of particular interest to KSM: Yes, Virginia, there is an exclusionary rule.

You don't see this everyday; just in time for the 2009 Darwin Awards.

Evolutionists Flock To Darwin-Shaped Wall Stain

"Capitalizing on the influx of empirical believers, street vendors have sprung up across Dayton, selling evolutionary relics and artwork to the thousands of pilgrims waiting to catch a glimpse of the image. Available for sale are everything from small wooden shards alleged to be fragments of the "One True Beagle"—the research vessel on which Darwin made his legendary voyage to the Galapagos Islands—to lecture notes purportedly touched by English evolutionist Alfred Russel Wallace."

Hey. That 'burnt toast Jesus visage' got nothin' on these faithful.

Yes, it's a teenager. And, yes, that should be tragically sad, if the kid didn't try So. Darn. Hard. to be stupid.

Teen Decapitated by Batman Ride at Georgia Six Flags.

Six Flags officials are uncertain why 17-year-old Asia Leeshawn Ferguson of Springfield, South Carolina scaled two six-foot fences and passed signs that said the restricted area was both off-limits and dangerous to visitors, spokeswoman Hela Sheth said in a news release.

I can hear the lawyers... ambulance chasers... parasites mobilizing for the exorbitant punitive hustle already.

No Darwin Award for You

5 Taliban militants kill themselves in Afghan siege.

True to form, these cowards blew themselves up amid Afghan civilians.

Police were looking into whether there were casualties caused by the explosion among civilians in neighbouring houses, he said.

One of these pieces was a suspect in last weekend's assassination attempt on Afghanistan's President Karzai. The Afghan Security Force thanks you.

Deputies rescue nekkid alligator hunter

He was trying so hard for that darwin award - again. The first time it happened, back in 2006, he was also nekkid, and an alligator chomped off his arm.

This time, deputies reportedly spotted him wading -- again, naked -- toward an alligator about 50 feet away. They were able to talk him out of the water, and he's been hospitalized.
Being wacked out on drugs may have played a roll.
