Japan's females are longest living in world That's good to know. Why Do Women Live Longer Than Men? The real question is why do most men die before their wives do? Because they want to. hahahaha DOH!!! Really. The woman pictured above is 82. No kidding!!! Okay. I'm kidding.
Average ER waiting time nears 1 hour, CDC says. That's reassuring.
Military jury convicts bin Laden's driver . I'm no fan of bin Laden but.... Read the news article. He wasn't part of a conspiracy. He was his driver. The news story said he transported missles. Did he know this? According to this news story, there is no way he should have been convicted of this.
SC deputy killed while responding to alarm call . Very very sad.
Convoy rescued after GPS led them to Utah cliff . GPS devices don't have a dumbass warning or dumbass cutoff switch. Use a little common sense people. Never put your full trust in a machine. When all else fails, just think for a second. I have a Garmin and absolutely love it. Granted, it won't tell me if a road is rough, if a drunk driver is heading my way, or if gas prices are cheaper at the next station. Well, maybe it will tell me that. I'm not so sure. Anyway..... You get my point.
Policewomen get "bullet-proof bras" . I think I've dated women with bullet proof bras. Or what about this one. You're getting cuddly with a girl. Slide your hand up her shirt really really slowly and sensually then SNAP!!! A mouse trap stops your advance. YOUCH!!! Do you get it? Police bra, bacon bra?
