A tale of romance gone horribly wrong
2007-06-21
COLUMBIA, S.C. -- Police on Wednesday were investigating how a naked couple fell four stories from the roof of a downtown office building to their deaths.

The man and woman were found near the sidewalk by a passing cab driver around 5 a.m. Wednesday. One person was pronounced dead at scene and the other died a short time later at a local hospital.

Clothing was discovered on the roof, leading authorities to suspect the couple, in their early 20s, may have been having sex. Their identities were not released.

#12  Women don't get drunk as often.

Or not often enough, depending on how you look at it.

#9  Darwin award candidates.

And one was a woman, too! I think that's extra points (the vast majority of candidates are men, for some reason).

#3  The roof of the building is pyramid-shaped.

that explains it...

/Pyramids act as effective resonators of randomly polarized microwave signals which can be converted into electrical energy.

One must be stringent tho, because if an observer has a climax then his/her data will probably be inaccurate and wholly deficient in empirical analysis and application of the scientific method.

any questions?
