Here is one for the record books:

A blond woman driving a Bently, had a little accident. First side swiping a Mercedes before crashing into a Porsche, Ferrari and an Aston Martin.

Ouch.

I saw the pic of that and thought of LoT too. I think it's Nirvanaman that would probably cry over that pic.

I know this is the effing Daily Mail we're dealing with here, but is the color of her hair such an important detail? You'd never see a headline like that if it were a man. Sexism is so gross.

Making fun of British people is still cool though.

An Aston Martin Rapide worth £150,000 and an £80,000 Porsche 911 also came a cropper.

I aggree! If it had been an elderly person (ageism really), or drunk driver, or underage driver that would be worth mentioning. But the fact that "Blond woman" was in the description indicates at least part of the reason why the accident happened. As if being a blond woman really does hold credibility for doing something really stupid. Which is, well, really stupid.

I'm not a woman, but I am a natural blond, as is my mom. And I represent that statement.

No, wait....I mean RESENT that statement. I just had a blond moment! ;)

I had just cued up "Violent Love" by Oingo Boingo when I read this story - Australian Woman Sues for Worker's Compensation After Sex Injury on Business Trip

I don't understand why she would sue her employer. Why not sue the hotel for the light fixture coming off the wall?!

Off the top of my head, without reading the link, I'd guess the employer has deeper pockets than the hotel.

Man allegedly breaks into a house and straps a bomb to a girl's neck in Australia. Police freed her safely after 10 hours. They are being very vague about details until they investigate more.
