Point: Photographers should get close to the action to capture the spirit and the emotion of the event.
Counterpoint: Fucking javelin in the leg.
Ouch. E.T. phone an ambulance.
PROVO, Utah - A newspaper photographer got a little too close to the action at the state high school track championships — and was speared through the leg by a javelin.
Ryan McGeeney of the Standard-Examiner was spared serious injury Saturday, and even managed to snap a photo of his speared leg while others tended to him.
“If I didn’t, it would probably be my editor’s first question when I got back,” McGeeney said.

This is one of those situations where the photographer probably feels oddly fortunate. A javelin caught with the brainpan probably wouldn’t have ended so well.

FFFFFFFFFFFFIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRSSSSSSSSSSSSSTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
video won’t play
While we’re waiting for Rosetta to fix the video, here’s some interesting trivia. Youtube commentors are usually the biggest dipshits on the net, but according to one of the dipshits, the kid in this video later became the singer for this band. I couldn’t find anything to confirm it other than the fact they’re both from Canada. What do you think?
Arg! I hate when those faggots don’t let you embed their videos.
It’s an OUTRAGE I tell you!!!
Wow, that video was really. . .What? Really? Yeah! It sucks it didn’t load!
The Carpenters to the rescue.
She has extremely pointy breastages
Karen Carpenter IS dead because she didn’t LIKE BURRITOS!
Just think, if Mama Cass had given Karen her ham sandwich they might both be here today…
Yeah, it’s all fun & games ’til somebody loses an eye on one of those things.
Keyboardist needs to trim his damned nails.

Bart’s new FAIL pic?
Bart - Not only was that weak but, I think I saw it in “Hustler” in ‘77.
Not only was that weak but, I think I saw it in
“Hustler”“Blueboy” in ‘77.Fixed that for you.
MCPO Airdale with the ladies?
Hey! I thought bart’s link was funny. It made me think of that one guy.
Hey! I thought bart’s link was funny.
Your desperate need to be liked by absolutely everyone is one of your least attractive features, ya know?
You’re such a bitch wiserbud. How’s that?
you know what I like, don’t you?
My least attractive feature is my huge hairy ass. Although, standing outside with my pants down while my dingleberries waft in the breeze is a pleasant way to pass the time.
you know what I like, don’t you?
You like young Thai boys?
pajama momma, shhhhhhhhhhhh.
Men are talking.
Sorry, you’ve obviously got me confused with another, larger, more important blogger.
pajama momma, shhhhhhhhhhhh.
Men are talking.
You be nice or I’ll hold my breath till I turn blue!
I’ll hold my breath till I turn blue!
With those scuba tanks your packing on your chest, I’m figuring that will be sometime around Halloween.
Ah, I see, I”m dealing with “feistybud” tonight huh?
you really haven’t been paying attention lately, have you?
Rosetta - I can assure you that my failings with the ladies is a disappointment. Sort of like when you couldn’t remember all of the words to “Annie” at your weekly meeting of the “He-man Women Haters Club.”
Well, I’ve seen an awful lot of “boringbud” but your old self is back huh?
simma down na
shhhhhhh, I wanted people to think I’d offed you. You ruined it.
mesa - You escaped! Hooray!
I’m very upset about that MCPO
Yeah, I got home a little while ago and there is a frost warning here tonight.
Stupid Michigan.
Oh mesa, it’s CCNP
This is here this weekend, though –

I would puke. I can’t hardly handle a park swing anymore.
Must have been a fighter pilot. It takes a lot of training to be able to take 9.6 Gs without passing out.
you know whats?
I don’t think any of “got” it.
I sure as heck don’t get what you just said.
Bart’s high on crack again.
Huh?
Who’s turn is it to replace MCPO’s hearing aid battery?
pajama momma, you’re up.
It’s always me. NO FAIR!!!!!!!!!!
FAIR!!!!!!
Um, NO!!! No fair.
Ok nevermind. I’ll turn up his hearing aids, but it’s your turn for Depends duty
NAIR!
Rosetta - Don’t forget the powder! Diaper rash would be hard to explain.
BLAIR!
Stop linking to youtube videos. My new laptop (my hubby bought me for my *blogiversary*) doesn’t seem to want to include the audio on videos. It’s very frustrating.
Anyhoo, has Rosetta covered the killer nipple cream story, yet?
methinks MC3PO is just a little too turned on by this whole concept.
BLAIR!
bwahahahahahahhaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mullet Man!
My new laptop (my hubby bought me for my *blogiversary*) doesn’t seem to want to include the audio on videos.
Turn the volume on.
Well I want to hear about the killer nipple cream even if nobody else does. Might come in handy one of these days.
*makes sure life ins. policy is still in affect
good thing that date with mesa was last week.
Wiser - It ain’t Friday night at the VFW but, it will do. . .
good thing that date with mesa was last week.
I don’t have a life ins. policy on him……………….yet
You be nice or I’ll hold my breath till I turn blue!
Womanly drama reminds me of Alanis’s remake of Fergie’s Lady Lumps song:

the FAIL pic…
the guy was digging a tunnel…
into poo.
It was cute bart. It made me think of Gary Larson. I like him
“You don’t want no drama. . .”
well of course you got it, peej.
it was potty humor, after all. i know we connect on that level.
*points to eyes with two fingers and then points to peejay’s eyes and then taps chest and then points to peejay again*
you feelin me?
Yeah, we get it Bart. Really, we do.
Maybe it just wasn’t funny?
u mad?
at you? Never.
Feisty’s just jealous, that’s all.
I liked it. Curse you all
Feisty’s just jealous, that’s all.
that’s feistybud to you
Mea culpa.
Mr. Feistybud, Esq., is just jealous, that’s all.
Thank you, Muslihoon. This will go quite far towards reducing the astronomical level of animosity most here feel towards you.
I only feel a small amount of animosity towards Muslihoon. Not astronomical at all.
And since you’re all begging…I *may* do th nipple cream story here. Maybe. If I feel like it.
Guess i’ll do some overnight muzak while we’re waiting for the homicidal nipple jizz post. Here’s a couple of songs that i remember really liking when they came out, but i listen to them now and they just don’t seem as good as i remember. Guess they’re allright though.
Ahhhh, here we go. When’s the last time you heard these songs?
Bet you haven’t heard this in a while either.
Woohoo! Needs more gopher though.
Another band you don’t hear anymore. And i’ll bet you’ve never heard this song.
This one has better sound.
Oh yeah, i still think this chick is hot.
There should be a law mandating that all women must dress like the chick in this video.
80’s metal, now with 90% more boobies!
My domination of recent comments is now complete and i’m youtubed out.
Woohoo!
Heh
Awww, wordpress finally put me in the spam bucket. Won’t stop me though.
Woohoo!
heh
It’s fun to look at the mugshot while listening to the song.
Give me an R
R!
O, O!
C, C!
K, K!
Whatcha gonna do?
ROCK YOU!!!!!!!
What a disgusting collection of horrible hair band, faux metal.
Ugh.
That Whale band was kind of funny, though. Hobo humping slobo babe — that has kind of a ring to it.
Much better — http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aatjerFCRP8

I’m scared.
Mesa - Life On Mars. Excellent but under-rated tune IMHO.
Here you go MC — http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxCj2MO02AE&feature=related
Hey - I saw a bass and a mandolin in there too! Great get, Mesa!
Wow, anyone remember this?
