EvilMonkey Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 http://www.boston.com/news/odd/articles/20...?p1=MEWell_Pos1 Woman crashes when teaching dog to drive August 28, 2006 BEIJING --A woman in Hohhot, the capital of north China's Inner Mongolia region, crashed her car while giving her dog a driving lesson, the official Xinhua News Agency said Monday. The woman, identified only be her surname, Li, said her dog "was fond of crouching on the steering wheel and often watched her drive," according to Xinhua. "She thought she would let the dog 'have a try' while she operated the accelerator and brake," the report said. "They did not make it far before crashing into an oncoming car." Xinhua did not say what kind of dog or vehicles were involved but Li paid for repairs. Top Ten Excuses Offered By Dog For Crashing Car 10. "I could swear that oncoming sedan looked like a large, metallic squirrel." 9. "I thought vehicles had the power of dematerialization, like in those fascinating Chuck Wagon commercials." 8. "Everything was going fine until I realized it had been three minutes since I licked my balls." 7. "It wasn't my fault. The other driver was Chinese. 'Nuff said." 6. "You know that whole 'faking the throw' thing? Yeah, yeah. That's funny. Really funny. Oh, my ribs are aching. You know what else is funny? Head-on collisions, b****." 5. "Two words: Cell phone. My best friend was just telling me about this ratty old gym sneaker she was gnawing on that just sounded so to die for and I guess I just got caught up in the moment." 4. "I was having a stressful day at the office, putting the finishing touches on a proposed merger between my snout and the mailman's genitals." 3. "Honestly, my Blood-Snausage-Ratio was no higher than .08." 2. "Gotta admit... I looked pretty damn cool for about three-quarters of a second there." ...and the number one excuse offered by the dog for crashing the car... 1. "I'm very sad about all of this, but can I say one thing in my defense? I'm a f***ing dog, moron." (I stole the list. Sorry, not that creative!)

Texsox Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 The practice is illegal in most countries, although it seems strange any society would offer more protection to a dog than say a cow or pig. I'm not certain why Asians have become the brunt of these jokes. It could be that with the meat cut up it would seem easy to substitute one type of meat for another. http://www.snopes.com/horrors/food/chinese.htm http://www.snopes.com/critters/edibles/tourist.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackie hayes Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 Iirc, on Brandmeier's short-lived tv show, he took the most lovable-looking dog around to Asian restaurants (Korean or Chinese, I can't remember), asking them if they'd be willing to cook it up for him.
