Really??

Here's a headline that caught my eye from today's news: "Surgeons Save Man Who Accidentally Swallowed Scissors." Really? I've done a lot of accidental things over the course of my 41 years, but nothing that even remotely approaches inadvertently ingesting large sharp objects. How does one get into such a situation where swallowing scissors is a potential outcome? Good thing he wasn't running, too. That could have been really bad.

  2. You'd think you wouldn't need to warn people against that, but for some people, I guess, directions need to be so specific! I suppose that's why hair dryers often come with labels that read, "Don't use while in the shower." It makes me wonder who the person was that made such a label necessary.
