By installing back up alarms on delivery trucks. How many dumb people has this creation saved?

I believe in Natural Selection...or as a good friend (Ron) once shared, AutoDarwinism...
I agree but lets expand the list....

train whistles
plastic bats
bike helmet laws


I know there are many others and I am just drawing a blank...

If I can find the link, there was an article in the paper the other day about a double DUI arrest for one car. Seems a couple of lubed up Sconnies were driving and one had no legs. So one was steering, the other was operating the pedals and they were both hammered.

This could only happen in Wisconsin. I am not sure this beats the story from the previous year about a guy in Wisconsin that was arrested for humping, and I kid you not, dead deer road kill by the side of the highway.

All three are typical examples of Packer fans.

No, they support welfare: they're Packer fans.
