Silly things to do

I had to laugh today when I read of the bag thief who nicked Nigel Benn's suitcase off his trolley at the airport. I mean, this guy's a heavyweight boxer and extremely big and fit!! He raced after the thief and held him in a headlock until security arrived - lucky he didn't stick one on him otherwise he'd be minus his head! Isn't there an annual award ceremony for people who do the world a favour by not passing on their genes??

Thanks JenEllen - the Darwin awards link is exactly what I had in mind but couldn't remember the name. What an amusing site! As the bag snatcher survived (and has now been deported back to Chile) I suppose he would only get an honourable mention!
