MDRF in the news

[Dallan]

On the way in to work this morning I heard a brief news story on WBAL radio. Apparently yesterday around 6 PM woman in her early 20s came across a snake at the faire. She used it to taunt her boy friend. It bit both of them. They got attention on the grounds from first aide then went to the hospital for treatment. The story said it was unknown as to the type of snake it was. Nothing special just thought it was worth mentioning. Just proves that some people are idiots.

I heard the same report ... dumb da dumb dumb!

At least they didn't run accross Big Foot with a bag of Beef Jerky!

Think of it as evolution in action.

Oh dear god.... I just snorted water all over my computer.  People are morons.... although I would have loved to have watched all of that happen.

As a result, faire management has now stated that snakes entering the grounds will no longer be able to keep their fangs in their mouths, not even peace-tied...

[Professor M]

That's how natural selection works.  Darwin was right.

I almost went there ... by I'll behave!

Yesterday and this morning must have been what they call a slow news day.

[Dirtfarmer]

I'm surprised that the media didn't tie in the Renfaire/snakes and devil worship or some bs like that...

Amars, your comment almost made me spit out my drink all over my 'puter.

You know I just heard about that on the IWG Forums just a few minutes ago.Not only does it show how stupid people are but it also goes to show that people will do anything just to get attention.Hopefully this will teach those two to think twice before picking up a snake of any kind.

That Riot's Disease...it never goes away...(see lexicon)...

I wonder how long it'll take for a lawsuit to be filed. Dumb@$$es. 

Amras, you're my hero! 

[lordwriothsley]

Athena I think the lawsuit will happen once they are both fully recovered from their wounds which to me will be sooner than you think.

Amras, you're my hero! 

And you, Goddess, shall ever be mine!

Actually, here in good ol' Maryland, the snake has probably already filed suit against the dumb-a$%^es, as he was probably a member of the local Bar Association.
