Although Xena finally conquered her dark
nemesis Callisto, it took her weeks to get
the sand out of her leather unmentionables.

I've been banging ob about general lack of parenting skills for a couple of years now. Gives me no pleasure to read about this though, even if I'm not totally surprised.

Superb training

Thank you, my point entirely.

My point is that I use Real media, not the rag that you chastised others for using :-)

YouTube stunt with gun leaves boyfriend dead in Halstad, Minnesota

HALSTAD, Minn. (KMSP) - In what family members describe as a YouTube stunt gone wrong, a 22-year-old man from Halstad, Minnesota is dead and his pregnant girlfriend is charged with manslaughter.

Around 6:30 p.m. Monday night, Norman County sheriff’s deputies responded to the 500 block of U.S. Highway 75 on a report of a shooting. Life-saving efforts were made and a medical helicopter was called, but 22-year-old Pedro Ruiz was pronounced dead at the scene.

Ruiz’s girlfriend, 19-year-old Monalisa Perez, has been charged with second-degree manslaughter. According to the criminal complaint, Perez said Ruiz wanted to make a YouTube video of her shooting into a book held to his chest, and he believed the book would stop the bullet. Ruiz convinced Perez to participate in the stunt by showing her a different book he had shot, and the bullet did not go all the way through.

Perez told investigators she fired a 50 caliber handgun from about one foot away while Ruiz held the book to his chest. The book did not stop the bullet, and Ruiz was killed by a single gunshot wound to his chest.

The girlfriend is pregnant, so once the baby is born he will no longer be eligible.

Parenting skills?

BBC leeds

You seem to have a fixation about youth as well as parenting.

Have you not told us that you have a step-sister in Canada?

Man sits on gun, shoots self in (man parts)
JACKSONVILLE, Florida
A 38-year-old Jacksonville man accidentally shot himself in the (man parts) when he sat down on his gun, a Jacksonville Sheriff's Office report said.

According to the JSO report, the man's girlfriend told police he was sitting outside his Freedom Crossing Trail apartment in a car before he ran inside in a panic.

His girlfriend approached him in the bathroom and saw that he had a gunshot wound.

He said he accidentally set the firearm off when he sat on it in the driver's seat, his girlfriend told police.

She drove him to Memorial Hospital, where JSO impounded the vehicle for evidence.

JSO did not say what type of gun was involved.

The man required immediate surgery, JSO said.

No one was harmed during the production
of this motion picture. However, Xena's ability
to recover her body was severely impeded by
Lucy Lawless' unexpected mishap.



Now I need to look that one up too.

I decided to waste some electricity so I turned my lava lamp on after not using it for several years. It's quite cold in my lounge room so it's taking a good while to warm up.

Snorting chocolate the next quick energy craze?

Coco Loko could be the next biggest energy supplement.
What's the newest buzz-inducing trend?

It could be chocolate that you snort.

Legal Lean, an Orlando-based supplement company, created Coco Loko, a cocoa powder that includes gingko biloba, taurine and guarana — ingredients normally found in energy drinks.

Nick Anderson, 29, founded Legal Lean after he heard about the chocolate snorting trend in Europe. He was feeling a bit adventurous and purchased the powder to give it a try.

Marijuana Shortage Prompts Emergency In Nevada; Tax Officials Weigh Changes

Sales of recreational marijuana have blown past expectations in Nevada, threatening to leave some dispensaries with empty shelves. After Gov. Brian Sandoval endorsed a statement of emergency in the first week of legal sales, regulators are looking to bolster the supply chain.

The Nevada Tax Commission is meeting Thursday to determine whether the state has enough wholesale marijuana distributors; it could also adopt emergency regulations.
