Eighth Place In Detroit, a 41- year- old man got stuck and drowned in two feet of water after squeezing head first through an 18 inch wide sewer grate to retrieve his car keys. Seventh Place A 49-year-old San Francisco stockbroker, who “totally zoned when he ran”, accidentally jogged off a 100-foot high cliff on his daily run. Sixth Place While at the beach, Daniel Jones, 21, dug an 8 foot hole for protection from the wind and had been sitting in a beach chair at the bottom, when it collapsed, burying him beneath 5 feet of sand. People on the beach used their hands and shovels trying to get him out but could not reach him. It took rescue workers using heavy equipment almost an hour to free him. Jones was pronounced dead on arrival at hospital. Fifth Place Santiago Alvarado, 24, was killed as he fell through the ceiling of a bicycle shop he was burglarizing. Death was caused when the long flashlight he had placed in his mouth to keep his hands free rammed into the base of his skull as he hit the floor. Fourth Place Sylvester Briddell, Jr., 26, was killed as he won a bet with friends who said he would not put a revolver loaded with 4 bullets into his mouth and pull the trigger. Third Place After stepping around a marked police patrol car parked at the front door, a man walked into H&J Leather and Firearms intent on robbing the store. The shop was full of customers and a uniformed officer was standing at the counter. Upon seeing the officer, the would-be robber announced a hold-up and fired a few wild shots from a target pistol. The officer and a clerk promptly returned fire, and several customers also drew their guns and fired. The robber was pronounced dead at the scene by Paramedics. Crime scene investigators located 47 expended cartridge cases in the shop. The subsequent autopsy revealed 23 gunshot wounds. Ballistics identified rounds from 7 different weapons. No one else was hurt. Second Place Paul Stiller, 47, and his wife Bonnie were bored just driving around at 2 a.m. so they lit a quarter stick of dynamite to toss out the window to see what would happen. Apparently they failed to notice that the window was closed. And the Winner is......... Zookeeper Friedrich Riesfeldt (Germany), fed his constipated elephant 22 doses of animal laxative and more that a bushel of berries, figs and prunes before the plugged-up pachyderm finally got relief. Investigators say ill-fated Friedrich, 46, was attempting to give the ailing elephant an olive oil enema when the relieved beast unloaded. The sheer force of the elephant’s defecation knocked Mr. Riesfeldt to the ground where he struck his head on a rock as the elephant continued to evacuate 200 pounds of dung on top of him. It seems to be just one of those freak accidents that proves ... ‘s**t happens’.BEACH VOLLEYBALL TOURNAMENT Pictured above is the winning team of T’s Saloon’s Beach Volleyball Tournament July 16 - 18.

The premise of this group is that you post something that you have that you want to get rid of but don’t want to throw away. Then others provide you with ideas from re­crafting it into some­thing useful, to offering to purchase the item for their own use. This site is the ultimate recy­cling lover’s dream.

Kids went on various jungle safaris making crafts, reading stories, playing games and having lots of fun winning prizes and making up animal stories. The Youth program once again read books, then watched movies with the great debate of which one was better. The program ended with a library sleepover/movie marathon. The Youth program was very well attended. The enticement of pizza and cookies was a big hit.
