Why would anyone cut off circulation to their brain by tying a rag around their neck?

I you really want to know, try this link...

http://www.hawaii.edu/hivandaids/Autoerotic_Deaths__Four_Cases.pdf


It details the death of four people from, hanging, electrocution,  inhalation of a zucchini, and finally,  with vacuum cleaner and a hair dryer.

Just another reason to allways carry a pocket knife.

There was a time when Japan had a standard open outcry stock exchange system. (like the present floor of New York Stock exchange)  Certain wacko Japanese traders would make a bad trade, get emotional and grab the competiton by the tie - choking them.

The exchange  finally outlawed ties on the floor.  Japan has since gone to fully computerized stock trading.

Lizards use clip-ons too.

The little green bastids were running all over the place at my buddie's place in Palmdale. Might have been a car insurance convention.

When I was in Malaysia I noticed that all of the restaurant ceilings and walls had lizards on them.  I then pictured lizards on the kitchen ceiling and dropping into the pot, but I hoped not.

Nope. Get rid of the lizards and you'll have tons of bugs. Lizards are good.
