The Young Man Who Fell Off the Ferris Wheel
Did anyone see that vid on the MSM today?

The good news he's okay, the bad news, it was news, and they played it over and over ad :puke:

Worse news, note to self, I had the "news" on all day!

:banghead:

So, when does news stop being news?

5. Good point !
It was a safety issue despite the local/state/fed laws for that persons protection? Whether he was disabled or not, he slipped out of the ferris wheel chair ? YeeGads.
