Today's winner for best logic in a news story...
Anorexia has been thought of as a disease affecting rich, white females since the 1940s because it primarily affects girls from well-to-do Caucasian families.

I think they might be onto something there. :-)

1. Good one!
The kind of remark that makes you shake your head and wonder what you missed.

3. I remember a "study" done years ago about toddlers
Why toddlers fall off tricycles and injure themselves?

1. They are not supervised closely enough
2. They don't know how to ride them..
