A man in Bulgaria was critically injured by a dancing bear.
He should have been wearing the bear-proof suit.
There’s also an amusing thread on this over at Free Republic.
“Only a fool would read a newspaper around them,” explained American dancing bear expert Captain Kangaroo.

Here’s an interesting Carnival float. One gets the impression that the designers aren’t fully on board with the War on Terrorism…

Tim Blair bludgeons poor Margo Kingston today (though, unfortunately, probably not into submission).
Margo is truly a national Ozzie wonder, like Ayers Rock, or the Barrier Reef, or vegemite, and he’s lucky among all of us anglospherians to have her. We have our Ralls, our Salters, and they have Heather Mallick Up North, and Fisk across The Pond, but somehow, you just can’t beat the non-stop, vacuous platitudes of Margo.
However, while I realize that she’s a rich ore to mine, he should have broken it up into installments–one can only take so much unprecedented idiocy at a single sitting. One has the frightening thought that he could probably do this every day for a month and never run out of material.
Reader Randolph Addison emails:
I do not have full details, as I only heard the last few seconds of the following on NPR around 8:45 AM:
“…when asked why the European countries have a higher unemployment rate than America, at roughly 5 percent, he responded, ‘Well, we don’t have as many people in jail, do we?'”
Well, actually, that probably is one factor, but it’s certainly disingenuous to imply that it’s the only one…
I take it ‘he’ is some European official and the rest of the story will become available during the day. I just found it interesting that they ignore their bloated welfare state with such an idiotic comment.
Yes. Well, of course, if they were to blame their welfare state, or their job-market rigidity, they might be compelled to do something about it. Much easier to look down their noses at America, and celebrate how much more “humane” they are.
While for the sake of Megan McArdle’s finances, I hope that she soon gets a real job, it will be a sad day if it cuts into the time that she can devote to writing little pieces like this one.
Best of the Web has a link to Ramsey Clark’s lawsuit filing in the Camp X-Ray matter. It’s a wonder of impenetrable postmodern jargon, with misspellings galore and cites from those renowned juridical minds, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards.
Ramsey Clark has completed the journey from grumpy-but-vaguely-principled anti-war type to buffoon. It’s hard to believe that this is serious. It’s so far beyond parody, that it makes you wonder if, like the anti-globo bozos, someone is paying these guys to do things like this to make the anti-war movement look even worse than it already does.
