A couple of years ago, when I worked at a large company, our "sexual 
harassment training" included a company letter that stated "Don't treat a 
female engineer like a secretary."  Needless to say, the secretaries were 
not amused.

Last September, in rural Vermont, the car in which Michael O'Keefe was 
riding was hit by a 700-pound moose.  O'Keefe was taken for treatment of 
cuts and returned to road a few hours later in his own truck, which was 
then hit by another moose.

Last February, in Warsaw, Poland, highway robbers forced off the road a 
car in which the coaches of the Russian and Belorussian biathlon (shooting
and skiing) teams were riding.  Following right behind, however, was the 
teams' bus, and as all of the athletes grabbed rifles, the would be 
robbers became fled (rather quickly).
