Number One Idiot of 2006:
I am a medical student currently doing a rotation in toxicology at the poison control center. Today, this woman called in very upset because she caught her little daughter eating ants.
I quickly reassured her that the ants are not harm-ful and there would be no need to bring her daughter into the hospital. She calmed down and at the end of the conversation happened to mention that she gave her daughter some ant poison to eat
in order to kill the ants. I told her that she better bring her daughter into the emergency room right away!
Here's your sign, lady.
Wear it with pride.
Number Two Idiot of 2006
Early this year, some Boeing employees on the
airfield decided to steal a life raft from one of the 747s. They were successful in getting it out of the plane and home.
Shortly after they took it for a float on the river,
they noticed a Coast Guard helicopter coming
towards them. It turned out that the chopper was homing in on the emergency locator beacon
that activated when the raft was inflated.
They are no longer employed at Boeing.
Here's your sign, guys.
Don't get it wet; the paint might run
Number Three Idiot of 2006
A man, wanting to rob a downtown Bank of America, walked into the Branch and wrote this: "Put all
your money in this bag." While standing in line, waiting to give his note to the teller, he began to worry that someone had seen him write the note
and might call the police before he reached the
teller's window. So he left the Bank of America
and crossed the street to the Wells Fargo Bank.
After waiting a few minutes in line, he handed his
note to the Wells Fargo teller. She read it and, surmising from his spelling errors that he wasn't
the brightest light in the harbor, told him that she could not accept his stickup note because it was written on a Bank of America deposit slip and that
he would either have to fill out a Wells Fargo
deposit slip or go back to Bank of America.
Looking somewhat defeated, the man said, "OK"
and left. He was arrested a few minutes later as
he was waiting in line back at Bank of America (!!)
Don't bother with this guy's sign.
He probably couldn't read it anyway
