Overdose of bull..

Overdose on bull. No, this isnt a rant about politics. It's about morons who 'run with the bulls'.  It's hard to have sympathy for someone who puts themselves in harms way.  50 odd people have ended up in hospital following the Pamplona bull run including an Australian woman.

Well.. nothing will put you in hospital faster than overdosing on bull.  If she survives, she'll have a great story to tell the grand children, but you have to wonder.  It's not like it's a sport.. or an achievement of any kind.  The only good that can come from this is if the bull gets to live if it knocks over so many of these human 'pins'.. now that would be a good outcome.

I suspect this intern is now an ex-intern

An intern from the National Transport Safety Board released fake racist names to a television station in San Francisco, who promptly telecast them.  Complaints flooded in from the audience, who were clearly smarter than the staff working at the station.  Oh dear..

What would prompt an intern to make jokes like this?  "Wow.. this plane crash news is a bit heavy.. time to lighten things up a bit with a bit of racism...".

The NTSB apologized for the inaccurate and offensive names and said "Earlier today, in response to an inquiry from a media outlet, a summer intern acted outside the scope of his authority when he erroneously confirmed the names of the flight crew on the aircraft".

Outside the scope of his authority?  Erroneously?  That's a big double helping of 'no shi# Sherlock' right there..
