An actual quote from the news tonight...

According to this study conducted by "experts," "Men have a 23% higher chance of dying than women."
Now, I'm not too good at math, but that figure seems just a tad bit high to me...

Could be, but it would be un-American to actually research the truth......as a society, we'd rather X-tremely sensationalize the errors.

Of course it could be--and was taken out of context--but I just thought it was kinda funny that they ACTUALLY SAID something so blatantly ridiculous. If you didn't hear the beginning of the newscast, then that's all you got!

I'm thinking that noone is immortal and we all have 100% chance of dying.
I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama
