You've got the brain of a four-year-old boy, and I'll bet he was glad to get rid of it. -- Groucho Marx

How come when stuff like this happens in a place most people can't
find on a map, we have to dig through the back pages of the paper
to read about it? I realize location plays a large part in
determining how stories get covered here in Amurrica, but can you
believe this? FIFTY-FOUR people were killed in a BEER RIOT! If that
sort of thing happened in Toledo, we'd be talking about it for
years!
Anyway, seems there was a big storm at a beer festival in Belarus and everyone
was drunk and tried to run inside to shelter. Reports say that most of the
people injured or killed were drunk, including lots of teenagers aged 14-18;
survivors and victims alike piled up in layers of more than 300 people on steps
leading to an underground railway station. Many of the police officials that
tried to stem the flow of rampaging drunks into the railway station were
trampled and killed as well.
Unbelievable. And people still get all wound up about Altamont? Altamont was
for PUSSIES.
