How come we don't shoot guns into the air in the streets or at parties like other cultures do? Them boo-lits gots to come down somewhere!

On a side note...I've also always wondered - Why don't we have big parades with our goose-stepping troops and tanks and trucks loaded with missiles going down 34th Street? I guess we're not cool like China and Russia.

America is soooo boring.

I saw this on Yahoo earlier and laughed. Those Arabs never have luck with guns.

And it appears to happen with some frequency over there. They place wires in some odd places.

You might be an Arab redneck if you shoot a power line in two & electrocute 23 of y'er family members...here's your sign!

Giving new definition to multiple birds with one stone, or a new Darwin Award.

Forgot about N. Korea. I'm sure Obama's buddy Hugo wishes he could have parades like that too.

Umm, Darwin at work again, and with over time.

Was anyone here in any city in Iraq when their soccer team was sweeping the Olympics ('04)? I knew whether or not their team won because the entire city would erupt into automatic gunfire simultaneously. By then we learned that 1 inch plywood as an overhead cover for the roof guards would stop a falling bullet.
