Report: Coaster death due to improper restraint
SPRINGFIELD, Mass (AP) -- A man who fell to his death from a roller coaster at Six Flags New England was not properly secured in his seat by a park attendant and was so big he should not have been on the ride in the first place, state investigators say. The Department of Public Safety report, released Friday, blamed an unidentified 20-year-old attendant for not making sure Stanley J. Mordarsky was safely restrained in the Superman Ride of Steel on May 1.Mordarsky should have been denied admission because his girth prevented a T-bar lap restraint from fitting firmly against his thighs, the report said. Mordarsky, 55, had cerebral palsy, used a motorized scooter and was 5-foot-2 and weighed 280 pounds, according to his family. |

| My Comment: Although I somewhat support the right for handicapped people to get out and about, I think that in this case, "Old Stanley" should have thought twice about slinging his girthness around on the 60 Mile Per Hour “Ride O Steel”. Come on people, a short fat guy who cannot grasp a doorknob let alone the restraint bar of a ride that submits you to the “G” force of an F16 Fighter, should not be on a ROLLER COASTER! What were the people who brought him to the park thinking? The 20 year old park attendant should have known there was a problem when he couldn’t close the bar on Stan’s rotundness. There is a lawsuit here somewhere but the park is not completely at fault. Whatever happens, I am sure that the many people who witnessed "Stan the Man" being flung across the park, will never be the same. Idiots surround us but at least we can make fun of them. | ||||||||||||||||||||

| My Comment: Ok, ok, one nail is an accident, maybe two. Six is attempted murder. This guy must owe money to someone named Don Vito. The man does not remember getting hit with the high powered nail gun, so all the reports as to what happened came from the co-worker who blasted this guy's noggin. Of course the co-worker will say it is an accident but I am sure he was trying to kill him. Lets call the reporter who wrote the story and the police investigator just plain stupid for believing that the six giant nails in the brain was just an "ACCIDENT". Yeah Right! |

| Soldiers harassing naked Prisoners and taking pictures.
My Comment: When I was in the military and was going to do something, I would often think: Is this bad and am I going to piss off the President of the United States. What a complete bunch of morons. Not that I have anything against harassing scumbag prisoners but at least have the sense not to take pictures of you doing it. Especially don’t take pictures showing your face. How stupid can these people be? |

| Recent Headline: Worker Killed Trying to Clear Wood Chipper In the hours before the accident, the tree trimmer loaded branch after branch into the mouth of the wood chipper. By 5 p.m. Thursday, after a full day of work in the heat and humidity, the machine clogged, jamming on a large bundle of branches. Using his hands for support, the man climbed into the chipper and kicked the branches through. In an instant, the machine pulled half his body through its blades, killing him before he could cry for help, said Hillsborough County sheriff's Lt. Fred Asteasuainzarra, who described the accident Thursday evening |

| My Comment: I do feel sorry for the guy but at least the future gene pool is safe from this stupid person. When I see razor sharp blades spinning at 8000 revolutions a minute and taking logs and turning them into sawdust, I think to myself: Don’t stick my body parts in there. I guess some lawyer will go after the woodchip maker because they didn’t have a sign saying don’t jump in. Here is a link to the story. | ||||||||||||||||||||

ORLANDO, Florida (AP) -- A federal drug agent shot himself in the leg during a gun safety presentation to children in what police describe as an accident. His bosses, however, are still investigating the incident. |

| My Comment: Accident or not this guy needs to be grounded. If I was his boss I would place him behind a desk for the rest of his life. Not only did he shoot himself but he did it in front of kids. What an idiot. | ||||||||||||||||||||
