    I can not comment on the story, since the hatred I would feel toward this mother would make me foam at the mouth, so let me just say how adorable that picture is.


    In the face of a child I see hope for the world.

    @Curves: It is a disturbing story about a vile woman endangering a defenseless innocent, and your level-headed comment does make me feel a bit uneasy at the way I've been joking.

    This reminded me of a story where some woman in PA, I believe, used her baby as a club to beat her boyfriend. Damn, I need to find that article.

    Her name was Chytoria Graham, and she hit her BF by swinging/throwing her son at him.

    They are simply the top ribs, the ones that connect to the spine, as opposed to the spare ribs, lower down by the belly...of a baby.

    @Penguins-R-Us frequents the site OMG Ponies! Frequents- I ...: No joke. Malfunctioning kids are the bane of our country's existence. Indeed it's just a short walk from wobbly-kneed wards to welfare-wanting adults. I say fix 'em while they're young and fix 'em good.

    @nerve11: Agreed. Had she simply thrust the baby into the taser and held it there, the taser would have fully discharged, eliminating all threat.

    @Hello Mister Walrus: Then protect yourself. Make sure you are not using fake baby club knockoffs which could fail at any time. Use only the Ms. Chytoria Graham-approved Genuine Article.






    Disclaimer: NO, of course this logo--which I found on the Web through a random search--has nothing to do with either the infamous Ms. Graham or with using babies as clubs. At least, not to my knowledge.

    @peregrinefalc0n: Wow! I didn't think anybody would be interested in my writing, thank you! In fact, since you ask, I'm working on the third volume of my manifesto. It's called, "My Manifesto". I plan the series to eventually have seven volumes. Well, the initial series anyway, after that, who knows? The sky is the limit.


    Speaking of which, I haven't seen the sky lately. Is it still blue? Not much light gets down here into the bunker.


    Anyway, thanks for your kind words. You've been added to The List.
