I'm not going to steal this site's thunder because the comments are as good as it gets. So, while the boss isn't looking, get over there, read the story then read the comments. I left an invite for them to come a'visitin'.

Yes, I know, you were all saddened recently when you couldn't afford that expensive beer that came in taxidermied animal bottles. Well, we here at WU never like to see our readers sad, so we offer you this charming item. Beer not included.

Order yours here.

Idiot Of The Day

A New Zealander living in Melbourne, Australia got into a bit of trouble recently. Finding a BBQ grill along the side of the road, he decided to take it home...on his motorcycle. The man drove on the highway wearing the grill and looking through the grate. A passing motorist snapped a picture and turned the man in. He ended up paying the equivalent of an $800 fine, ouch!

Did anyone know they made a camper for the VW Bug?

Follies of the Mad Men #120

[From Life magazine for January 10 1949.]

This hideous Donnie Darko-style image will haunt you forever, and make you swear off beer-drinking at once.

Furries and beer: two things that must never mix.

Hospital Security?

Joseph Wheeler of Upper Marlboro MD, was in an automobile accident on June, 23. He woke up at Prince George's Hospital the following day. Upon asking for something to eat he was told by a nurse that he could not have anything as he was going to surgery. Surgery for a cancerous mass in his chest. Wheeler looked at his hospital bracelet and found it contained someone else's name. After talking to his wife, the Wheelers decided to leave the hospital for his safety. When they were told by a nurse that they could not leave, the couple prepared to leave anyway, as they were determined to exit a bad situation. The nurse called security, and two large, unpleasant men showed up. The men also told Wheeler he could not leave and when Wheeler insisted it was his right to leave he was beaten and sworn at. Before the couple managed to escape the bizarre situation, Wheeler was offered a private room and pain meds 'of his choice' to stay by an administrator and when he turned it down, was threatened for refusing to give the inaccurate bracelet back. He was assaulted again for trying to leave with the bracelet on his wrist as well. The man subsequently spent 3 days at another hospital being treated for broken ribs, a ruptured spleen,a concussion, and a sprained shoulder. Of course there is a pending lawsuit, but can you really blame the Wheelers?

Technology developed for military use is being adapted to control jail inmates. The clip shows a test of the device on jail personnel. The idea is to use it to break up fights. Good plan if it doesn't caused permanent damage, and the laughter of the test subjects indicate that it does not.
