Just a roundup of funny CPR-related video clips I’ve seen over the years….
I figure the picture and post title say it all, but I still can’t figure out why 18 hours is the allowed parking time. Incidentally, this sign was in Napoleon, OH, across from the middle school.
Since Labor Day is tomorrow, and there are cries of Socialism everywhere (or at least at town hall meetings, anyway), it seems appropriate to point out that one of the people we always thought was an all-American hero might actually be a dirty Communist. If you’re not into reading, a rough draft of a documentary [...]
My wife and I have discovered that I should never, ever drive anywhere immediately after watching an episode of Top Gear. It just isn’t safe.
There is an episode of G.I. Joe in which Cobra Commander tries to use a laser to engrave his face–well, mask–on the moon. That’s all I could think of when I saw a website offering ads on the moon: literally, your logo or message, inscribed across the moon, visible from Earth during quarter moons. I figure this [...]

Courtesy Reason, a new book which promises the most entertaining battle royale to hit fiction since, well, the invention of fiction, in which “all of the characters ever played by William Shatner are suddenly sucked into our world. Their mission: hunt down and destroy the real William Shatner.”
While I don’t expect to ever get one, I do enjoy some vanity plates. (Once, when I was very young, I did want to get plates that said “DR J.” When I quit wanting to be a physician, that idea went away; fortunately, it didn’t come back when I got into medicine.) That’s why I thoroughly enjoyed this [...]
