This week it appears that the internet is full of potential Darwin Award winners as we hear about the burglar who broke into the house of a competitive axe-thrower, and the man who jumped out of a moving car to avoid an argument with his girlfriend. We also here about the genius who turned up at court with his meth pipe, and the Texas folks who booed and walked out of presentation by Bill Nye “The Science Guy” because he said that the moon was a reflector and didn’t emit light. Controversy erupts when we discuss the two English women that won first prize at a fancy dress competition for dressing up as the Twin Towers, complete with explosions.
Finally, and perhaps epically, our “Bad Joke Of The Week” caller returns, but this time he puts on a different sort of performance for us!

State Rep. Donna Lichtenegger, a Missouri Legislator, has posted a translation guide that characterizes same-sex marriage as “legalized perversion” and a “multicultural community” as a “high-crime area” on her Facebook profile, sharing it with at least two other lawmakers - Rep. Charlie Davis (R-Webb City) and House Majority Leader Tim Jones (R-Eureka).
Fired Up Missouri reports that she also posted it on the page of Rep. Anne Zerr (R-St. Charles).
