DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME

Mount Sinabung

A huge column of ash was blasted almost five miles into the sky above the Indonesian island of Sumatra after an active volcano erupted. Mount Sinabung blew for nine minutes on Sunday, causing panic among the island’s residents. Indonesian officials warned that further volcanic activity was possible, although the volcano's alert level remained unchanged.
In a hundred years they will excavate stick-around-and-film-it guy.

I'd be the guy who said, "Quick let's start having sex, then we can be the couple that knew it was coming but just kept banging away".
^^A1^^

Does this look prohibitively dangerous to you?

Over and over I am reminded just how stupid the average person can be, and that looks like an accident ready to happen.

An Effective Tear Gas Counter Measure

Road cracked... then ultimately collapsed in China.

A deminer is surprised by an exploding bomb

The operator sits inside a special demining vehicle and is surprised by an exploding bomb. The explosion is so powerful that it seems like he loses consciousness for a few seconds.
The worker worked at the border between Chile and Peru, where explosive charges are removed in accordance with the Ottawa Convention, which prohibits anti-personnel mines since 1997. 

Chile has so far removed 85% of its land mines.

I'm thinking Russia...

 ^^A6^^

This is known as the "ballooning effect."

I would call it the "I'm not pointing that thing at my balls" effect.
Here's why...

TRAIN WRECKS...LITERALLY

Road bullies are the most dangerous thing on the highway...

MEN AND THEIR WOMEN

 ^^C1^^

If your wife was a millionaire, would you be a stay at home husband?

^^C2^^

It's called Random Dating.

 ^^C3^^


It's time for the old walk away...
^^C4^^

^^C5^^

Well, they actually tell us what's wrong, so...

^^C6^^

^^C7^^

Every man needs a woman to encourage him like this woman...

^^C8^^

Remember when women weren't allowed in a combat zone?

Then, desperate for troops, Israel created women warriors who did very well in combat thank you very much.
^^C9^^

When you need to go to war but you want to look fabulous doing it.


But then there are men whose women are men.

I don't think conservatives hate homosexuals, but rather they hate change.

You say "hospitalization for a nervous breakdown" I hear "quiet vacation with awesome drugs."

How naive can you be? They actually believe their citizens don't know all there is to know about the tragedy?

FAMOUS LAST WORDS

 British Writer Hector Hugh Munro (Known As Saki) (1870-1916). Saki served as an infantry officer during the Great War. Concerned that wisps of smoke could give away their position, he warned a fellow officer. Unfortunately, the sound of an order was a far better way of spotting a target than a cigarette’s worth of smoke. He was shot dead seconds after giving this famous final command.

---

 American Trombonist And Band-Leader Glenn Miller (1904-1944). Miller boarded an airplane from England to Paris, where he planned to perform concerts for troops on leave in Europe. His last recorded words as he boarded the plane were spoken to Colonel Norman Baesell, who replied: "What's the matter Miller, don't you want to live forever?" The aircraft was lost over the English Channel.
---

French Fashion Designer And Business Woman Gabrielle 'Coco' Chanel (1883-1971). After returning from a walk with her friend, Coco Chanel died on her bed in the Hotel Ritz. Her last words were said to her maid Celine.

---

 American Singer, Guitarist, Songwriter And Music Producer Ellas McDaniel (Known As Bo Diddley) (1928-2008).  Diddley died giving a thumbs-up as he listened to the song “Walk Around Heaven.” This was his last word ever said.
I once found myself in a restroom with Bo Diddley peeing in the next urinal.
