Prize Child
Hokay, it’s beena while since I blogged, but I think I’ve finally found something to blog on that might be of comical interest. Special Thanks goes to my sister for sending me this link:
“ELKHART, Ind. (AP) A crane vending machine can be frustrating enough when you're trying to snatch a little stuffed toy from its steely clutches. Imagine if the prize it's denying you is your own 3-year-old son. James Manges II managed to climb up the chute and inside one of the machines Thursday, swinging around for an hour amid the plush toys he coveted before firefighters freed him. James' mother, Danielle Manges, said they had paid an early morning visit to a Wal-Mart in this northern Indiana city because he had been sick and was sleeping odd hours. After she denied him money to play the vending-machine game, he threw a juice box and climbed into the machine while his mother picked it up. "Within two seconds he had climbed through the hole, into the chute and pushed the door shut so we couldn't get him out," she said. At first, Manges thought it was funny: "He was playing with all the toys and hanging from the bar like a monkey." She even bought a disposable camera to take pictures, as other shoppers did. But she soon became upset when Wal-Mart employees said they did not have a key to let James out. Firefighters removed the back of the machine to free James -- who went home empty-handed. "He definitely didn't get a toy after that," Manges said.”
You know, as crazy as this sounds, this kid might actually have just spawned a revolution without even realizing it. I mean, what if we successfully make medical abortions illegal all throughout the United States? Hypothetically, the people would stop having so much sex for fear that they might not actually be able to kill their child if things screw up and they get pregnant. That would mean (gasp!) taking responsibility for their actions! But say that doesn’t happen and we get huge sums of babies in orphanages all across the country. Someone has to adopt these babies, right? Why not put them in the public’s eyes? We could probably have claw machines with babies crawling around in them in every K-mart you see. Only we’d have to have real strong claws in the machines that are actually strong enough to lift the prize kiddies out of the machine, and not like those crappy claws they put in these machines that make you put 3 bucks into the damn machine before you get anything.
:-) I’m just joking. What, can’t you guys take a joke?
