>>> Part 2 of 3...
take into consideration that if they place the stick of dynamite on the
ice at a location far from where they are standing (and the new Grand
Cherokee), they take the risk of slipping on the ice when they run from
the burning fuse and possibly go up in smoke with the resulting blast.
So, they decide to light this 40-second fuse and throw the dynamite.
Remember a couple of paragraphs back when I mentioned the vehicle, the
beer, the guns and the dog?  Yes, the dog: A highly trained Black Lab used
for retrieving, especially things thrown by the owner.  You guessed it,
the dog takes off at a high rate of doggy speed on the ice and captures
the stick of dynamite with the burning 40-second fuse about the time it
hits the ice.  The two men yell, scream, wave arms and wonder what to do
now.  The dog, cheered on, keeps coming.  One of the guys grabs the
shotgun and shoots the dog.  The shotgun is loaded with X duck shot,
hardly big enough to stop a Black Lab.  The dog stops for a moment,
slightly confused but continues on.  Another shot and this time the dog,
still standing, becomes really confused & of course scared, thinking these
two Nobel Prize winners have gone insane.  He takes off to find cover,
(with the now really short fuse burning on the stick of dynamite)....
Under the brand new Cherokee.  BOOM I Dog and Cherokee are blown to bits
and sink to the bottom of the lake in a very large hole, leaving the two
candidates for Co-leaders of the Known Universe standing there with this
"I can't believe this happened'' look on their faces.  The insurance
company says that sinking a vehicle in a lake by illegal use of explosives
is not covered.  He had yet to make the first of those $400+ a month
payments.
8.  An unidentified man, using a shotgun like a club to break a former
girlfriend's windshield, accidentally shot himself to death when the gun
discharged, blowing a hole in his gut.
9.  James Burns, 34, of Alamo, Mich, was killed in March as he was trying
to repair what police described as a "farm-type truck." Burns got a friend
to drive the truck on a highway while Burns hung underneath so that he
could ascertain the source of a troubling noise.  Burns' clothes caught on
something, however, end the other man found Burns "wrapped in the drive
shaft."
10.  A man cleaning a bird feeder on his balcony of his condominium
apartment in this Toronto suburb slipped and fell 23 stories to his death,
police said Monday.  Stefan Macko, 55, was standing on a wheeled chair
Sunday when the accident occurred, said Inspector D'Arcy Honer of the Peel
regional police.  "It appears the chair moved and he went over the
balcony, "Honer "It's one of those freak accidents.  No foul play is
suspected."
11.  Ken Charles Barger, 47, accidentally shot himself to death in
December in Newton, N.C., when, awakening to the sound of a ringing
telephone beside his bed, he reached for the phone but grabbed instead a
Smith &Wesson 38 Special, which discharged when he drew it to his ear.
[note: a clear argument for gun control, or at least stupidity testing.]
Police said a lawyer demonstrating the safety of windows in a downtown
Toronto skyscraper crashed through a pane with his shoulder and plunged 24
floors to his death.  A police spokesman said Garry Hoy, 39, fell into the
courtyard of the Toronton Dominion Bark Tower early Friday evening as he
was explaining the strength of the building's windows to visiting law
students.  Hoy previously had conducted demonstrations of window strength
according to police reports.  Peter Lanwers, managing partner of the firm
Holden Day Wilson, told the Toronto Sun newspaper that Hoy was "one of the
best and brightest" members of the 200-man association.
13.  A terrible diet and a room with no ventilation are being blamed for
the death of a man who was killed by his own gas.  There was no mark on
his body but autopsy showed large amounts of methane gas in his system.
His diet had consisted primarily of beans and cabbage (and a couple of
other things).  It was just the right combination of foods.  It appears
that the man died in his sleep from breathing from the poisonous cloud
that was hanging over his bed.  Had he been outside or had his windows
been opened, it wouldn't have been fatal.  But the man was shut up in his
near airtight bedroom.  He was "...  a trig man with a huge capacity for
creating [this deadly gas]." Three of the rescuers got sick and one was
hospitalized.
14.  A 24-year-old salesman from Hialeah, Fla., was killed near Lantana,
Fla., in March when his car smashed into a pole in the median strip of
Interstate 95 in the middle of the afternoon.  Police said that the man
was traveling at 80 MPH and, judging by the sales manual that was found
open and clutched to his chest, had been busy reading.
15.  A Jay County man using a cigarette lighter to check the barrel of a
muzzleloader was killed Monday night when the weapon discharged in his
face, sheriffs investigators said.  [The 19 year old man] died in his
parents' rural Dunkirk home [while] cleaning a 54-caliber muzleloader that
had not been firing properly.  He was using the lighter to look into the
barrel when the gunpowder ignited.
16.  A poacher electrocuting fish in a lake in central Poland fell into
the water and suffered the same fate as his quarry, police said Thursday.
The 24-year-old man was one of four who went fishing with a cable, one end
of which they attached to a net end the other to a high-voltage
electricity supply line, the PAPnews agency quoted a police official as
saying.  "For a while everything went according to the poachers' plan and
they had fish in their bags.  But at a certain moment the man holding the
net tripped and fell into the wafer' "the agency said.
