    I don't want this to devolve into an off-topic discussion of Darwin Awards, but I had to chime in about my friend, Matt.

    Matt's eyes were dry, and he wanted to put a drop of Visine in them. So he reached for the bottle of Visine sitting next to his bed, leaned back, and put two drops in each eye.

    Something was terribly wrong, though, as the cool, refreshing, wet sensation he was expecting was, instead, a horrible burning sensation.

    Instead of grabbing a Visine bottle, he had accidentally grabbed a bottle of Sweet Breath.

    After a trip to the emergency room to get all cleaned up, he told me that for the next two weeks, he now knew what it felt like to have "minty-fresh eyes."

    C'mon, who wouldn't want "minty-fresh" eyes?

    While we're tangentially displacing ourselves away from the original topic, I descaled my kettle once using a proprietary cleaner (containing a highly corrosive concentration of formic acid) and then got distracted by the dog barking outside. When I got back into the kitchen, I said to myself "hey, it must be time for coffee!" The cup was about two inches from my lips before I remembered what it was I was doing with the kettle beforehand...and yet somehow I can drive a car into town without killing anyone, write computer programs and remember to feed myself

    Are you required to call the local police before driving in to town, so they know you are on the road? It's only a matter of time until the odds turn against you....
    Serendipity is a lucky guess !

    Doesn't everyone have police out riders when they go to pick up a few groceries? That must mean I'm *extra* special then

    Either that or they substituted my car for the Knight Industries Two Thousand a few years back - either way, I'm still cool
