Seen Everything?

Just when you think you have seen or heard everything, something happens to reduce your faith in humanity one more notch.

I have a friend, who swears he knows this to be true. He knows a man who found an orphaned baby raccoon. The baby coon was so small it was still nursing. After trying the baby bottle bit without much success, the man's wife, who was nursing her own baby, decided to try to nurse the coon with her own equipment. The experiment was a success, and the man went around bragging about her service to the animal coon. In terms of common sense, I don't know which was worse, the actual act or the bragging about it.

I read the label of my microwave lunch the other day before heating it. It read, "Product will be hot after heating." I thought, "Duh!" After hearing about the woman nursing the coon, I am surprised we are not given more elementary warnings about what not to do in our everyday life. I will have to read instructions on products more. There may be more humor out there than I thought.
