    Some will argue that Darwin's Theory of Evolution, that man evolved from apes, is false. I have always believe that we did evolve from some kind of lower life form.
    But after reading this, there is no way the apes would ever be this stupid!

    For your thinking pleasure.....

    Yes, it's that magical time of year again when the Darwin Awards
    are bestowed, honoring the least evolved among us.

    Here is the glorious winner:

    1. When his 38-caliber revolver failed to fire at his intended
    victim during a hold-up in Long Beach, California, would-be robber James
    Elliot did something that can only inspire wonder. He peered down the
    barrel and tried the trigger again. This time it worked.


    And now, the honorable mentions:

    2. The chef at a hotel in Switzerland lost a finger in a
    meat-cutting machine and, after a little shopping around, submitted a
    claim to his insurance company. The company expecting negligence sent
    out one of its men to have a look for himself. He tried the machine and
    he also lost a finger. The chef's claim was approved.

    3. A man who shoveled snow for an hour to clear a space for his
    car during a blizzard in Chicago returned with his vehicle to find a
    woman had taken the space. Understandably, he shot her.

    4. After stopping for drinks at an illegal bar, a Zimbabwean bus
    driver found that the 20 mental patients he was supposed to be
    transporting from Harare to Bulawayo had escaped. Not wanting to admit
    his incompetence, the driver went to a nearby bus stop and offered
    everyone waiting there a free ride. He then delivered the passengers to
    the mental hospital, telling the staff that the patients were very
    excitable and prone to bizarre fantasies. The deception wasn't
    discovered for 3 days.

    5. An American teenager was in the hospital recovering from
    serious head wounds received from an oncoming train. When asked how he
    received the injuries, the lad told police that he was simply trying to
    see how close he could get his head to a moving train before he was hit.

    6. A man walked into a Louisiana Circle-K, put a $20 bill on the
    counter, and asked for change. When the clerk opened the cash drawer,
    the man pulled a gun and asked for all the cash in the register, which
    the clerk promptly provided. The man took the cash from the clerk and
    fled, leaving the $20 bill on the counter. The total amount of cash he
    got from the drawer...$15.

    7. Seems an Arkansas guy wanted some beer pretty badly. He
    decided that he'd just throw a cinder block through a liquor store
    window, grab some booze, and run. So he lifted the cinder block
    and heaved it over his head at the window. The cinder block bounced back
    and hit the would-be thief on the head, knocking him unconscious. The
    liquor store window was made of Plexiglas. The whole event was caught on
    videotape.

    8. As a female shopper was leaving a New York convenience store,
    a man grabbed her purse and ran. The clerk called 911
    immediately, and the woman was able to give them a detailed
    description of the snatcher. Within minutes, the police apprehended the
    snatcher. They put him in the car and drove back to the store. The thief
    was then taken out of the car and told to stand there for a positive ID.
    To which he replied, "Yes, officer, that's her. That's the lady I stole
    the purse from."

    9. The Ann Arbor News crime column reported that a man walked
    into a Burger King in Ypsilanti, Michigan at 5 A.M., flashed a gun, and
    demanded cash. The clerk turned him down because he said he couldn't
    open the cash register without a food order. When the man ordered onion
    rings, the clerk said they weren't available for breakfast. The man,
    frustrated, walked away.

    (*A 5-STAR STUPIDITY AWARD WINNER)

    10. When a man attempted to siphon gasoline from a motor home
    parked on a Seattle street, he got much more than he bargained
    for. Police arrived at the scene to find a very sick man curled
    up next to a motor home near spilled sewage.

    A police spokesman said that the man admitted to trying to steal
    gasoline and plugged his siphon hose into the motor home's sewage tank
    by mistake.

    The owner of the vehicle declined to press charges saying that
    it was the best laugh he'd ever had.
