Deepest sympathies to the family and friends affected by this latest tragic turn of events. Batman the Dark Knight indeed.
Rides and parks are more dangerous than you think. I had a friend in middle school who was killed on a coaster. The ride operator did a false stop in the station, my pal stood up, […]
It’s Friday and seem to be finding too many missing limbs of late, so enjoy silly names! I’d like to name a town. I even entered an ancient MTV contest to win a town in Texas, think me and a pal were gonna call it DUDELAND.
History, humor in Alaska names from Eek to […]
Bad cat, bad bad bad bad kitty. I’d have loved to have seem him scamper up the lines though, wouldn’t you? Or maybe he climbed the pole? Hmmm. Alls well that ends well!
Close shave for Freddy the feline

What a brave, and sorta cute, dude. I am sorry he lost his arm, but glad he saved his own life. Great work on fighting the gator, in the dark, in the water. Get better soon Kasey! I hope you can sell your story for a fortune. I hope you had health insurance. […]
This baby is REALLY cute. This is an older story but still worth noting. The extra appendage though unusual, seems well formed and is semi functional. Click here to read a post about another Chinese baby born with something extra. Come back soon to read about the outcome for this cutie.

George Carlin, acerbic, dark and very smart comedian has died at age 71. Early in his career he came up with a skit about 7 short words that went all the way to the Supreme Court, which is outlined below.
His dabbles with drugs and other demons have been well documented but he largely lived a […]
With so many feet washing ashore in one small place it makes sense that a hoax would happen. Though a waste of public funds in this case, humor is one of the release valves of life. The threat, or implied threat of shoe wearing feet being found washed ashore would make your town twitchy too. […]

Now this is a story! It was sent to me by Elizabeth of the BIG TEA PARTY. Surprisingly Wal-Marts and their parking lots are really dangerous places.

I’ve been following this story since the 3rd foot was found. I am only now posting it as surely 5 feet being found washed ashore is beyond co-incidence. Reading this article has given me a glimpse into another potentially fascinating career, flotsam researcher.

After being sent the compelling photo below I backtracked and found the story, which isn’t new. I’ve found other stories that say this limb was re-attached and the Vet is on the mend. I reckon MissFidget.com is your source for Cap’n Hook photos. Click here to read about Bill Hedden’s alligator encounter in SC […]
By now, this story is not new. Momentarily pushed aside by unicorns, criminals, and the baby with the second manhood it’s still noteworthy. As there were 5 people in the car, and it was a 30 pack, strapping the beer in to prevent it from becoming airborn in case of an accident prolly isn’t THAT […]
