Well democracy did indeed fail this week. I left it open to the radio audience and no takers on who should win the award (though saying Asshat on the air is an FCC violation, so I just called it Idiot of the Week). I threw out some suggestions, but I also was willing to take suggestions, and yet nobody jumped at the opportunity.
See folks, democracy sucks!!! The time for the suspending of rights has begun. As dictator of this page I will appoint Asshats purely based on my own whims and reasoning (reasoning which may or may not exist). As a result, this week's Asshat has a bonus, it is an Asshat with Ass fat. Sometimes this stuff writes itself, or at least i wish it did, because then I wouldn't have to type it out.
40st woman in toilet 14 hours | |
| May 26, 2007 FIREMEN ripped apart a flat yesterday to rescue a 40-stone mum stuck in her loo for FOURTEEN hours. Caroline Comer, who is in her 50s, got trapped after she went to spend a penny at midnight. A shocked relative found her at 10am and rang 999. Paramedics unable to budge her called the fire brigade, who brought in power tools, hammers and chisels. It took four more hours for 15 firefighters to cut away the toilet door, its frame and an interior window to reach the woman. The rescuers then battled to stretcher her down a flight of stairs and out on to a first-floor balcony. At 2pm she was finally winched to the ground in Basingstoke, Hants, using a CRANE and PULLEYS. The woman was loaded into an ambulance which took her to hospital — where firemen who followed had to lift her out again. Last night she was in intensive care. Fire service spokesman Mark Jones said of the rescue: “It was quite a job. “There was a lot of huffing and puffing from the men involved.†A witness said: “The firemen were cutting away doors, windows — the whole of the inside of her home.†|
