On the bus home to Cape Breton there was a man from China travelling to Newfoundland. All the drunks tried to befriend him by regaling him with their knowledge of Japan.

Video of Kenny Rogers* Knocking out a Camera
*It's not the Kenny Rogers who sings Lucille, but the Kenny Rogers who pitched a perfect game in 1994.
I can't help but link Kenny Rogers and Kevin Brown. Both are from Georgia, both came up with the Texas Rangers, and neither of them have any self control. In the midst of a pennant race last year, Brown, with the Yankees, punched a clubhouse wall in a fit of frustration breaking his non pitching hand. This year while with the Rangers, who are 3 and a half games out of a playoff position, Rogers, the Rangers best pitcher, went all Mike Tyson on a water cooler injuring a bone in his glove hand. He followed up that fight with a wrestling match with a camera.
