Pam found this tragic, yet somehow awesome, story..
4 gold stars for Pam.
I am slightly disappointed in myself because I definitely found this story entertaining. 28 people were killed, but the fact that they were challenging a lion makes it seem more stupid than tragic. The fact that they were midgets is irrelevant. I think I would be equally intrigued if they were Canadians.
According to Metafilter, this is all a lie.
And this, Jonabad, is why you are awesome.
defintely fake, but funny none-the-less.
when pressed to explain this, my coworker said “well, midgets might not be real people”
Darn… Gullible Pam falls for the fake news story – AGAIN!!
Sorry guys, I wanted to believe that it was real so maybe that’s why I got suckered.
Oh man. Through reading the link above from metafilter, I found a post from someone asking who would win between the lion and a grizzly bear. Out of curiousity, I put in Tim vs. MikeD.
I so housed you.

I’m extremly impressed that you took down the Dark Lord of the Sith.
Remember this though……he scored with Natalie Portman.
BUUUUURRRRRRRRNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!
Seems like the only one I can take down is Kurt. Sigh.
I don’t think so. I am Not going down to the McQuaid!
Oh, mike, did you notice that natalie shaved her head? like bic’d it!
Yeah, I saw that on cnn.com and was appalled. Ladies of the world….LEAVE YOUR HAIR ON!!
Especially the cute ones. Please.
yes, I’m totally okay with bald Natalie.
It would take much more than a haircut to make me shun the lovely Natalie.
Like what MikeD?
Thats cheating Mike, playing off of the Beastie boys fame for your own stick-fighting benefit.
Maybe I’m just peeved that my name is so unique there are only 45 results… :(
