Darwin Awards

Wendy Northcutt, author of the celebrated book series called "The Darwin Awards," offers up her own brand of natural selection that salutes the improvement of the species by honoring those members who have accidentally removed themselves from it. Her lecture is slated for Thursday, April 19 at 8 p.m. in the Cooperage. The event is free to SSU students with ID or $10 general admission. The UC Berkeley molecular biologist discusses the creative, inane, and altogether awe-inspiring accidents that have improved the human gene pool and the poor departed souls that made the spectacular mishaps happen. Such accidents as the drunk man who wanted a wild poisonous snake as a pet, the sober man who tried to rob a man that was selling a gun, and an elderly gentleman attempting to rid his lawn of gophers by electrifying the very ground he stood upon will be discussed. Also on topic will be the honorable mentions of the Darwin Awards - those who had a bout with natural selection but survived with their reproductive capability intact.

I thought there was a time limit on what you can post on YouTube. How did this nearly 50 minute long piece of shit get here?

She looks like a sour faced 100% callous bitch. She deserves a Darwin Award for being fat maybe that is her contribution.

Suggestion - try mixing a live feed from the P.A. system with a mic for ambience.
