I'm trying to figure out how this happened. I think the boy had second thoughts and decided to turn in the other two clowns because his parents would have killed him otherwise.
And somebody let some burning shit get away from them, burning down 14 power poles valued at over $14,000 and a wooden fence. Whatever black-out that may have been caused in this locale wasn't my fault. I dabble only with electric appliances and wiring; and although people have said that I am full of shit, I don't set fires with it.
The Twinkie defense didn't work. How could anyone expect the chocolate defense to work? How much liquor is in those chocolates? I saw somewhere that there might be as much as 3 ml. in each one, which means that the guy had to eat 80 of them in an hour to get to twice the legal limit in Newfoundland, if he weighed 175 pounds (80 kg.). That's about 3 1/2 pounds of chocolate he ate in an hour.
Death by chocolate ... been tried before.

Posted by: lucy at March 29, 2005 12:18 PMI don't know so much about doubting the chocolate defense. My native Mexican cohorts at work bring me up some Tequila-filled chocolates that buzz me up pretty good. Might be that if I ate two or three pounds they might just impair my driving more than just the sugar buzz alone. I'm just saying, could be.
Oh, again, kudos to you. I really like this one-stop-news-shop you've got going. Saves me quite the load of time in my busy day. Keep up the good work.
Posted by: Vicki at March 29, 2005 01:55 PMI don't know about the buzz you can get from the chocolates but I do know I wouldn't eat 'em. They just look... wrong somehow. Meh. What do I know?
You want death by chocolate come on over to my place and consume the table-full I've got spread before me right now. I've been dipping all morning. I'm about to move on to the drizzling phase. :)
The first story reminds me of Garden State... "By the way, it says "BALLS" on your face." :)
Posted by: Keri at March 29, 2005 03:02 PMI can get high from chocolate, only I can't move when I do. I just sit and hallucinate. Wonder if I'd qualify as an expert?
