Having a Bad Day?

The next time you're thinking you're having a bad day, think about this:

The average cost of rehabilitating a seal after the Exxon Valdez oil spill in Alaska was $8,000. At a special ceremony, two of the most expensively saved animals were released back into the wild amid cheers and applause from onlookers. A minute later, in full view, a killer whale ate them both.

Iraqi terrorist, Khay Rahnajet, didn't pay enough postage on a letter bomb. It came back with "return to sender" stamped on it. Forgetting it was the bomb, he opened it and was blown to bits.

Two animal rights protesters were protesting at the cruelty of sending pigs to a slaughterhouse in Bonn Germany. Suddenly the pigs, all two thousand of them, escaped through a broken fence and stampeded, trampling the two hapless protesters to death.


Lot more laugh out loud stories here guaranteed to cheer you up. Reading the news here in the Philippines can drive one to either a mental hospital or to suicide.
