Lobster boat tragedy
 
To all:

As if jetskis weren't bad enough...

Winter Harbor, ME -- The latest in a rash of Segway-related accidents
has prompted authorities to put an abrupt halt to the popular water
recreation activity.

The James Bond-like Sequada can reach speeds of 115 mph, challenging
that of many racing boats. Coast Guard Lieutenant "Choppy" Waters
remarked, "In the hands of a reckless hobbyist, this machine becomes a
lethal weapon."

This was tragically illustrated yesterday when an unidentified man
struck a lobster boat in Winter Harbor. The resulting explosion sank
the vessel, killing all seven hands aboard. The Sequada rider was also
killed.

The FBI does not consider terrorism to be a factor.

What? Does that mean that the news item about the Wal-Mart customer
being bit by a rattlesnake is a joke, too?

Nope. FOX news reporting policy requires their news stories to be
directly about, or segway into, "American Idol".

Me. I'd like to create the reality TV series called "American Stalker"
The person who has the most creative stalking plans wins and gets to stalk
the winner of "American Idol".





Further, these quotes will PROVE beyond a shadow of a doubt that the
article is obviously fair and balanced, because it was from FOX......
