Stupid Is As Stupid Does

At long last. Finally, a pill, other than Viagra, that may be the most important pill ever made!!!

Scientist Tests 'Anti-Stupidity' Pill


BERLIN - A German scientist has been testing an "anti-stupidity" pill with encouraging results Bild newspaper reported Saturday.

It said Hans-Hilger Ropers, director at Max-Planck-Institute for Molecular Genetics in Berlin, has tested a pill thwarting hyperactivity in certain brain nerve cells, helping stabilize short-term memory and improve attentiveness.

The German newspaper has dubbed it the "world's first anti-stupidity pill."

I know several people that qualify for these pills.

Once available I will hand them out to drivers on the freeways so maybe they will adhere to the Slower Traffic Keep Right signs.











Speaking of stupid!

Is It the Drunk or the Drink Doing the Talking?

Did he/she mean it when he/she said it?

Science, as it happens, has been hard at work trying to understand the how and the why of what everyone at a college mixer learns: alcohol can make people do, and say, stupid things.

But does it make people say things that they do not believe at all?

Experts generally suggest that the answer is “Nope.”

So, if you drink, zip the lip because the old "I didn't mean it" won't work!!!!







Sweltering man struts bare on Illinois interstate

Man allegedly on his way to visit relatives, loses clothes, car, teeth

The man told authorities he was headed from Ohio to Kentucky to visit relatives. Somewhere along the way, he lost his clothes, his car and his teeth.

That's an Ohio man's explanation for why he was walking along an Illinois interstate this morning — as the sheriff put it — "wearing nothing but a smile."

OK, go with me on this one - let's see, it's hot so you discard your clothes, then you discard your car probably because the air-conditioning didn't work. Now, here's the hard question, does removing your false teeth make you cooler?








Fragile Artworks Fall From Wall, Shatter

They Were on Loan From U.S. to a French Museum

PARIS - Two fragile artworks on loan from the United States slid from the walls of Paris' Pompidou Center and shattered, the museum said Friday.

Part of an exhibit on Los Angeles art from 1955 to 1985, the lost artworks were a 1971 untitled resin piece by Peter Alexander and a 1967 Plexiglas creation by artist Craig Kauffman called "Untitled Wall Relief."

"We deeply regret the incidents," the Pompidou said in a statement. "In the last 30 years, we have organized 20 exhibits a year, and it is extremely rare that such incidents happen at the Pompidou Center."

"We are saddened that such a significant work of art in our collection has been destroyed," said Michael Govan, director of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.

Well, what do you expect? This is the French at their best!!!

"We deeply regret the incidents." "It is extremely rare that such incidents happen at the Pompidou Center," The Pompidou said. Yeah, funny, just stuff from the United States!!

Shame on the Los Angeles County Museum of Art for loaning anything to the French. Stupid!!! Will we never learn???? Their wine sucks too!!!








Death Row Inmate Appeals Over Smoking

COLUMBUS, Ohio - Lawyers for a death row inmate are appealing his conviction, in part, because the judge barred jurors from smoking during deliberations.

According to the appeal on behalf of Phillip Elmore, attorneys said the lack of smoke breaks made jurors antsy and overly eager to finish the case.

A jury deliberated for six hours before convicting Elmore in 2003 of aggravated murder and other charges in the death of his ex-girlfriend. A week later, the jury needed three hours to recommend the death sentence.

Common Pleas Judge Jon Spahr would not let them smoke during either deliberations.

"The judge's refusal to make any accommodation of jurors' request to smoke predisposed those jurors to agree on a quick decision," Elmore's lawyers wrote.

Prosecutor Robert Becker said he believes the verdict and sentence will stand. "I don't think I've ever heard of this one. It's relatively novel," he said.

And who said attorneys are stupid? Well, everyone I know did, but man, this is a real stretch and one has to guess he will win!!!!!

Need a lot of those anti-stupid pills for sure!!!!!
