    From what I understand this is from a local station that I despise. Obviously staged...

    That being said. Good point!

    I believe that it was comedian Bill Engvall who said that when he took his wife deer hunting and they passed a deer crossing sign his wife said;

    "Why do they put those signs up, deer can't read?"

    And Bill replied;

    "No, but they do recognize pictures of themselves."

    My (late) grandfather always hunted near the deer crossing signs. I guess he felt the signs were there for a reason and he should have good luck there.... I never heard how well he did with that theory.

    I can't argue with his logic

    It's kind of like "Where There's Smoke There's Fire"

    It may have been a set up, but there are people like that out there…

    I have a sister who would tell her out of control children, “I’m going to count to ten… eleven, twelve, thirteen…

    Kind of like the numnuts "Negotiating" with Iran, “We are going to walk away” if you go past our third deadline…

    We could always send this woman to 'help' figure out the 'details'

    Very, very sad.

    reminds me of the time my son and I went to the bait shop and bought 10 items at $0.25 each.
    The clerk used a calculator to figure 10x25.

    Agreed, that is very disturbing, and it reminds me of a story as well. In the 90's I ran a lab that had an overconfident elitist spoiled lazy (ok, I admit it, I did not have a good opinion of her) employee who thought her Master's degree somehow made her better than everyone else. I asked her to dilute a partial bottle of 15% media, that I no longer needed, down to a concentration of 10%. An hour later when I came back, she was still writing out her calculations. She finally gave up and left it for me to do.
