How'd ya like that to be your last piece of work on Earth?

What if this guy hadn't made it back? Broken a bone in his leg, foot? What if a cougar, a snake, or some other critter had decided to make a meal out of this hopping human corn dog ? The Darwin Awards really missed an opportunity here w/ this guy.

Then the last drawing would've been an amazing portrait of a cougar's open mouth...

King Arthur: [about the inscription on the rock] What does it say, Brother Maynard?
Brother Maynard: It reads, "Here may be found the last words of Joseph of Aramathia. He who is valiant and pure of spirit may find the holy grail in the Castle of Aaauuuggghhh..."
King Arthur: What?
Brother Maynard: "The Castle of Aaaauuuggghhhh"
Sir Bedevere: What is that?
Brother Maynard: He must have died while carving it.
King Arthur: Oh come on!
Brother Maynard: Well, that's what it says.
King Arthur: Look, if he was dying, he wouldn't have bothered to carve 'Aaaauuuggghhhh'. He'd just say it.
Sir Galahad: Maybe he was dictating it.
King Arthur: Oh shut up!
Sir Robin: Well does it say anything else?
Brother Maynard: No, just "Aaaaauuuugggghhh".
[knights making groaning sounds]
Sir Bedevere: Do you think he could have mean, 'Camaaaauuuuggghhhh'?
Sir Galahad: Where's that?
Sir Bedevere: France, I think.
Sir Lancelot: Isn't there a Saint "Aaaaavvvveeeesss" in Cornwall?
King Arthur: No that's Saint "Ives".
Sir Lancelot: Oh, yes. "Iiiiiivvvveeessss"!
[All knights saying, "Iiiiiivvvveeessss"]
Sir Bedevere: Whooooouuuuaaa!
Sir Lancelot: No no no, it's "Aaaaauuuugggghhhh" from the back of the throat.
Sir Bedevere: No I mean, "Whoooouuuuaaa!" as in surprise and alarm.
Sir Lancelot: Oh, you mean like, "AAAHH!"
Sir Bedevere: Yes, that's it. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

OMG! I did my current event for History on that last week!

I love how he hopped for 12 hours with picture in hand:

Here it is if you wanna read it:

This is news because it reminds us not to chain our legs up, in the middle of a desert, with no one around. Also, that some people are desperate. This man, an artist in California, chained his legs up, so that he could accurately depict what they looked like in a picture. Just one trouble. He lost the key. In the middle of the desert. With no one around. Luckily though, his picture ended up very realistic.
A California artist decided that he would bind his legs in chains so that he could depict what they looked like with terrific accuracy. He did so while camping in an abandoned mine in San Bernardino. Once he was finished with his drawing, he came to a horrifying conclusion. He’d lost the key. Only one thing to do now: find help. So, donning his shoes, he hops through the desert…for 12 hours. Finally, he makes it to a gas station, where the authorities and some paramedics arrived. Once the chains were cut off, revealing some bruising, he showed him the picture (which he had brought with him, yes even with the hopping) to everyone.
This was a great article. I’m an artist…call me crazy, but I would never chain up my legs, in the middle of no where, all by myself. I’d chain someone else’s legs up. And even if I did, for some reason, feel the need to do so, I would never lose the stupid key. I hope this poor guy learned a good lesson, and even if he didn’t he now has a great story.

I try and keep my current events kinda interesting...

I wanna meet some AZ Firefly fans!

Wait. He had to go camping in an abandoned mine shaft about five miles north of Baker, just so he could wrapped a chain around his ankles? And he couldn’t have done that at home why?

I just don't understand.

Exactly.
Q: Why does some meatpuppet have to go to a mineshaft to chain his legs together?
A: My guess is his muse is 'Mary-Jane' and a mine shaft is a nice place to converse with the muse...

What a moron.

personally, speacking as an Arizonian who lives in Cali, I think its probebly because Californnians are wierd, strange, muderous, strange people. Or at least the ones in the city.... well not all the ones in the city but the majority of ones in the city.

It was secretly filmed as a pilot for a new Fox reality series...

Start with the part where Jayne gets knocked out by a 90 pound girl. 'Cause I don't think that's ever getting old.

Hee, hee hee.

This guy has the drive, the dedication,(and the insanity), that my fellow art teachers would love to see in their students. But that's mainly 'cause they wanna get them all killed.

I on the other hand, am not one of them. Much.

Also, maybe this guy wanted a very, very, very realistic painting of a man chained in a desert. But I'm still confused about why he just didn't do it in a sandbox at the nearest park?
