So South Africa won the Rugby championships … I’m not even sure if the U.S. has a team.
1. On firefighters in the UK possibly being banned from using their ladders because it is deemed a health and safety risk:
“No word on whether or not they’ll be banned from actually fighting fires, for the same fears …”

2. On a 106-year-old man and an 81-year-old woman being married in a city in southeastern China:
“The wedding registry included Viagra, colostomy bags, and denture-cream.”

3. On wild monkeys attacking a New Delhi deputy mayor who then fell to his death:
“People had warned him about changing his cabinet …”

4. On an undercover police officer who asked a doctor to prescribe marijuana for his dog:
“Apparently, this cop wanted to get rid of some Scooby-Snacks …”

5. On a student being kicked out of school for bringing a butter knife to campus:
“I guess they were afraid he would slather somebody to death …”

6. On a 21-year-old man being killed whilst playing the dangerous game of "surfing" atop a moving subway train, from which he was thrown to his death:
“I’m more surprised that this numb-nut actually lived to be 21 ...”

7. On a survey that found that a meal at a fast food restaurant could expose children to "staggeringly" high levels of salt:
“The survey also revealed that there were indeed 24 hours in a day …”

1. Not to mention dangerous burning fat people.
2. Arranged marriage?
2a. If they each had offspring, does China kill the extras to enforce the One Child Policy?
3. Successful test run for PHL mayor's office.
4. Sgt. Ricky Williams?
5. Better hope they don't run DNA tests on the butter's remains.
6. Do they play the theme to Hawaii Five-0 at subway surfing contests?
7. Your tax money at work.
Pot makes yet another appearance on Topical Chat. That's why I'm such a loyal reader.
You have a rugby team. They're the ones who play an 'American Football' type game without all that silly padding.
They lost but at least they don't look deformed...
The British Lions Rugby Team once challenged the winners of a Superbowl (can't remember who) to 2 games. One American Football and one Rugby.
They declined to play the Rugby game as the padding would have to come off...
I'll say no more.....
In defense of American Fooball players, the helmets and shoulder pads allow one to be much more reckless with one's body, and create extremely violent collisions. The leg and hip pads are useless, they don't protect much and the real good players don't even wear 'em. It was still ballsy of the Lions to challenge them to the two games tho'. The British are always up for a good scrap, and me thinks that's why they are our best ally.
