			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>BOB &#038; THE BLONDE </p>
<p>Bob, a handsome dude, walked into a sports bar around 9:58 pm. He sat down next to a blonde at the bar and stared up at the TV.</p>
<p>The 10 pm news was coming on. The news crew was covering   the story of a man on the   ledge of a large building preparing to jump. </p>
<p>The blonde looked at Bob and said, &#8220;Do you think he&#8217;ll jump?&#8221;</p>
<p>Bob said, &#8220;You know, I bet he&#8217;ll jump.&#8221;</p>
<p>The blonde replied, &#8220;Well, I bet he won&#8217;t.&#8221;</p>
<p>Bob placed a $20 bill on the bar and said, &#8220;You&#8217;re on!&#8221; </p>
<p>Just as the blonde placed her money on the bar, the guy on the ledge did a swan dive off the building, falling to his death.</p>
<p>The blonde was very   upset, but willingly handed her $20 to Bob, saying, &#8220;Fair&#8217;s fair. Here&#8217;s your money.&#8221; </p>
<p>Bob replied, &#8220;I can&#8217;t take your money. I saw this earlier on the 5 pm news, and so I knew he would jump.&#8221;</p>
<p>The blonde replied, &#8220;I did too, but I didn&#8217;t think he&#8217;d do it again.&#8221;</p>
<p>Bob took the money&#8230; </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Eighth Place </strong><br />
In Detroit , a 41-year-old man got stuck and drowned in two feet of water after squeezing head first through an 18-inch-wide sewer grate to retrieve his car keys.</p>
<p><strong>Seventh Place</strong><br />
A 49-year-old San Francisco stockbroker, who &#8216;totally zoned when he ran,&#8217; accidentally, jogged off a 100-foot high cliff on his daily run.</p>
<p><span id="more-765"></span><br />
<strong>Sixth Place </strong><br />
While at the beach, Daniel Jones, 21, dug an 8 foot hole for protection from the wind and had been sitting in a beach chair at the bottom! When it t collapsed, burying him beneath 5 feet of sand. People on the beach used their hands and shovels trying to get him out but could not reach him.  It took rescue workers using heavy equipment almost an hour to free him. Jones was pronounced dead at a hospital.</p>
<p><strong>Fifth Place</strong><br />
Santiago Alvarado, 24, was killed as he fell through the ceiling of a bicycle shop he was burglarizing. Death was caused when the long flashlight he had placed in his mouth to keep his hands free rammed into the base of his skull as he hit the floor.</p>
<p><strong>Fourth Place</strong><br />
Sylvester Briddell, Jr., 26, was killed as he won a bet with friends who said he would not put a revolver loaded with four bullets into his mouth and pull the trigger.</p>
<p><strong>Third Place</strong><br />
After stepping around a marked police patrol car parked at the front door, a man walked into H&amp;J Leather &amp; Firearms intent on robbing the store. The shop was full of customers and a uniformed officer was standing at the counter. Upon seeing the officer, the would-be robber announced a hold-up!, and fired a few wild shots from a target pistol. The officer and a clerk promptly returned fire, and several customers also drew their guns and fired. The robber was pronounced dead at the scene by Paramedics. Crime scene investigators located 47 expended cartridge cases in the shop. The subsequent autopsy revealed 23 gunshot wounds. Ballistics identified rounds from 7 different weapons. No one else was hurt.</p>
<p><strong>HONORABLE MENTION </strong><br />
Paul Stiller, 47, and his wife Bonnie were bored just driving around at 2 A.M. so they lit a quarter stick of dynamite to toss out the window to see what would happen. Apparently they failed to notice the window was closed.</p>
<p><strong>RUNNER UP</strong><br />
Kerry Bingham had been drinking with several friends when one of them said they knew a person who had bungee-jumped from a local bridge in the middle of traffic. The conversation grew more heated and at least 10 men trooped along the walkway of the bridge at 4:30 AM. Upon arrival at the midpoint of the bridge they discovered that no one had brought a bungee rope. Bingham, who had continued drinking, volunteered and pointed out that a coil of lineman&#8217;s cable, lay near by. They secured one end around Bingham&#8217;s leg and then tied the other to the bridge. His fall lasted 40 feet before the cable tightened and tore his foot off at the ankle. He miraculously survived his fall into the icy water and was rescued by two nearby fishermen.<br />
Bingham&#8217;s foot was never located.</p>
<p><em><strong>AND THE WINNER IS&#8230; </strong></em><br />
Zookeeper Friedrich Riesfeldt ( Paderborn, Germany) fed his constipated elephant 22 doses of animal laxative and more than a bushel of berries, figs and prunes before the plugged-up pachyderm finally got relief.<br />
Investigators say ill-fated Friedrich, 46, was attempting to give the ailing elephant an olive oil enema when the relieved beast unloaded.</p>
<p>The sheer force of the elephant&#8217;s unexpected defecation knocked Mr. Riesfeldt to the ground where he struck his head on a rock as the elephant continued to evacuate 200 pounds of dung on top of him.<br />
It seems to be just one of those freak accidents that proves&#8230; &#8216;POOP happens&#8217;</p>
<p><strong>IT ALWAYS SEEMS IMPORTANT TO THANK THESE PEOPLE FOR REMOVING THEMSELVES  FROM THE GENE POOL</strong></p>
