A short video on LiveLeak:

That Police Chief sounded like a reasonably intelligent and credible guy. Then they cut to him.  :facepalm:

I guess that was his dress-sleeveless-tee.

Unfortunately, stereotypes exist for a reason.  If you only knew how many Polish jokes I've heard in my life. I'm at peace with that.

When you look at that low rider rig, with its heavy load, and the grade of the track relative to the road, that was an accident waiting to happen.  If that rig is legal, then the driver was completely negligent not to recognize he would never make it over the tracks.

It's not even a stereotype, it was right there in the video.

Come to Mer Rouge, we're pretty much known for our train accidents.

I'm not picking on anyone because of where they're from. There's a shot of two of his officers quite smartly dressed in crisp uniforms later in the video. I'm picking on the knucklehead that decided to give a press conference in his pajamas.

I guess I'll have to start wearing my tuxedo all the time, in case there's an accident and I have to be on TV.


Hmm... fur - it's the proper
attire for any occasion...

Two scientists create a teleportation ray, and they try it out on a cricket. They put the cricket on one of the two teleportation pads in the room, and they turn the ray on.
The cricket jumps across the room onto the other pad.
"It works! It works!"

Nice John!  Even I've learned few new ones there! But OTOH, they didn't have some that I know.  :D

Replace Polack with Iowan and I've told a lot of those.  :)

Still didn't have my two favorites.
