I've searched Google, and they're telling me that Mercury does not go into retrograde until July 26, and the next full moon isn't until the 27th, so I don't think that celestial events can be attributed as a cause here. I'm having a difficult time trying to figure out which is more stupid: (A) Running back to your burning automobile to light your cigarette on the flames of the burning car or (B) Getting arrested for trying to rescue a chicken tossed onto the highway when the driver made an illegal U-turn and rolled the semi truck hauling the chickens to slaughter. Suspected drunk driver runs back to burning car to light cigarette, singes part of his eyebrow off

I was doing a Google search looking to see if there were any follow-up stories about the woman who managed to get herself arrested for trying to rescue a chicken from its fate at the slaughterhouse and came across this little gem that makes the chicken rescue girl and singed eyebrow boy both look like geniuses. The fact that the story is two years old does not diminish the stupid factor: Woman charged for prostitution inside chicken coop

Leaving Hood River Safeway yesterday ($6/lb T Bones, nice ones) there is a 20-something man bunned wind surfer/kiter looking dude carrying a 12 pack of beer in each hand, ahead of me by about 50', headed into the parking lot just about to enter a parking row. From the side I see some big dude approaching him at a rapid clip from behind, from Safeway's other door on the far end of the store. Big guy is closing the distance on surfer dude, who must have seen him out of the corner of his eye, he speeds up and says loudly enough for me to hear, 'what's up bro'..and takes off running, or trying to. Now I notice the Safeway uniform on guy #2, and surfer dude has accelerated but is obviously slowed by his two hands full of the precious, but illicit, cargo. He makes the call to jettison half rack #1 and it hits and rolls, spraying beer everywhere. This does make for faster escape, but not enough... now Mr Safeway is right behind him and almost within grabbing range. Now they're halfway into the lot both running down one of the rows. Surfer dude calculates his chances of escape with second half rack, makes the right decision (for him), and with an underhand move at the bottom of the arc of the backswing, cuts loose half rack #2 backwards towards Mr Safeway, who makes an elegant on the fly, split second leap over the 2nd batch of exploding beer. This diversion allows surfer dude to accelerate to escape velocity, and he pulls away from Mr Safeway and I last saw him vanishing around the corner towards the funky tiny motel next to Safeway. I'm still trying to process what exactly is going on because it's all over in 20 seconds, and the parking lot is like a movie freeze frame, a tableau of all customers within sight, frozen, watching the action, a couple with kids in tow. An interesting trip to Safeway. The T Bone was excellent.

Maybe surfer dude would have been more successful absconding with packs of T-bones.

In high school in the 70's I worked in a big grocery store and my favorite part of the job was manning the mirrored observation window right above the booze aisle. 86 in aisle 4. Guys would come running from the bakery, the deli, the butcher, everybody wanted to get in on the beat down. I've had bottles of booze thrown at me while in a full sprint across the parking lot. I remember one time pulling into the lot for my shift just as someone came running out of the store. I cut him off Starsky and Hutch style with my car. I would never do anything like that these days. Much to likely to get shot at now. In retrospect it was pretty foolish even back then.
