It takes a spot of courage to stand up tall and a bit of derring-do to rise when you fall

"After They Use The Bathroom They Will Be Very, Very Happy"

That's my favorite quote from this news story.

Also, if you're going to commit a crime as a tree, you might want to be a little leafier or something. Just a suggestion. A little tip.

Those news stories are a nice bit of lighthearted relief from the flooding in Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas; from the drought and ruined crops in Alabama; and from stories like this and this.

Are there times when you wonder if the world has gone mad? Everyone's crazy except me and thee.

The kid in the hot car story makes me so sad... it is one of those that makes a person say , "How could you?!" but more than one person has. Awful. And I hated that last story.
Yay on the toilets, though. I'd not take a job there, though, not for anything.

i almost *like* the tree bandit, his story is so much happier than those other two...
advanced topics:
hidden in the tree/robber story is surely a joke about "shoots and leaves". discuss.

The child in the car story was a tear-jerker and the rape was unbelievable.

Tree Man was simply stupid and I'll go with Bryan on this one - eats, shoots and leaves (for jail).

Loved the toilets but don't understand what's wrong with a simple bucket. I'll be surprised if Jay Are doesn't come up with a Paris Hilton toilet design.

I think Paris herself is working on that as we speak. She's a changed woman, you know.

So what's Paris changed into? A poverty-stricken, socially-conscious, law-abiding do-gooder?
