Well yeah, guess it's not ironic. It would be ironic if he voted AGAINST the bill, only to later take advantage of its allowances. C’mon jcc, I’m hoping you’re better than that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cognizant 7 Posted April 11, 2022 I wonder if there are deaths related to video game losing. For example somebody had a game over, became angry, tried to break the system unit over their head but fractured the skull instead..? does anybody know anything of that kind? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cognizant 7 Posted April 15, 2022 Oh btw, I'm not sure if I'm not doubling information in this thread as I'm a newbie, but... In 1985 there was a huge lifeguard poolside party in New Orleans crowded by lifeguards of course. They celebrated the end of the swimming season, remarkable for no drownings. They invited about 100 guests. When the party was almost over, somebody saw on the bottom of the swimming pool... what do you think? 31-year-old Jerome Moody, a party guest, was lying drowned to death under water. Finita la comedia. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,069 Posted May 1, 2022 Three University of Oklahoma meteorology students out chasing storms come upon a tornado and, just as you would expect… …their vehicle was struck by a lorry on the return trip. Drake Brooks, 22, Nicholas Nair, 20, and Gavin Short, 19, had been chasing a tornado in Kansas when the incident took place on Friday (April 29), just south of the Kansas border. Prior to the crash, the College of Atmospheric and Geographic Sciences students had posted footage online showing an apparent tornado near Herington, Kansas, about 70 miles northeast from Wichita.

Sir Creep 7,069 Posted May 12, 2022 A 60-year-old man strangled a woman and tried to bury her in the backyard of their South Carolina home, but had a "cardiac event" in the process of covering a pit and died, according to a news release from the Edgefield County Sheriff's Office. Deputies responded to the home in Trenton on Saturday morning for calls of an unresponsive man lying in his yard. Deputies identified him as Joseph McKinnon, who had no signs of trauma "and natural causes were suspected," the release said. As deputies notified the next of kin, a second body was found in the freshly dug pit, the release said. Officials identified those remains as Patricia Dent, 65, who also lived at the home.
