Can He Parallel Park?

You know, when you have a world of several billion people, with folks on the tail ends of all kinds of distributions, something like this is bound to happen:

A woman in Hohhot, the capital of north China's Inner Mongolia region, crashed her car while giving her dog a driving lesson, the official Xinhua News Agency said Monday.

A dog?

Next thing you know, there'll be a driving cat...

Fortunately, this example of 6 sigma behavior did not fit someplace in the MSM's political narrative, otherwise we'd be hearing about it for the next two months.

I wish their missile guidance technology were as primitive.

Considering the wisdom involved here, I think the story should be stated: "A dog crashed its owner's car while teaching her that she is stupid."

Well we have a dog that can surf board. Why can't a dog drive? I say get a million dogs in a million cars and wager how many years it takes for one of them to learn how to drive. Of course I say keep the doggie driving school over there in China. I already have a hard enough time getting to work as it is.
