I have been accused of being a tad jaded. Oh well. There are far worse fates in life. For example, one could be accused of being a bigot or a conservative. Oh right, one and the same, one and the same.
But as always, I digress.
You reach a point in life where you think 'I have heard and seen it all'. That point where you feel nothing more could happen out there in the world that would shock you.
Why?
Because you have been witness to such a march of stupidity over the years that surely to goodness nothing more could be done that would be stupid and newsworthy.
Then (you knew that was coming didn't you?) I came upon this wee story today . . .
Drunk Santa Claus Parade Driver Nailed
CAMBRIDGE, Ont. - A 51-year-old man faces impaired driving charges after he was pulled over while driving a vehicle in a Santa Claus parade in Cambridge, Ont. Saturday night.
At around 6:50 p.m. police at the parade received a tip about a driver in the parade who appeared drunk.
Police immediately pulled the vehicle off the road.
Two other occupants in the vehicle were charged with public intoxication.
That was you, wasn't it Jerry? Next time let Paul drive and he can take the rap for it.

Kendall - the guy in the car was 51. I'm about 10 years younger than that! LOL
