What I see here is a good old fashioned accident { does anyone remember accidents that were actually your own damn fault ?? }

Jogging on the beach in the dark = one with any common sense would say "hey, being I can't see a damn thing, maybe I should be aware of logs, debris, holes, or anything else I could potentially trip on"

But nooooo, somewhere along the lines common sense was eliminated from today's society. It's easier to blame someone else, especially when some low life scumsucking lawyer might just help you obtain a large cash award.

That said, let's play a game - Suppose you have just purchased a steaming cup of hot cider. You accidentally spill it in your lap. OUCH! Who do you sue ??

A} The roadside stand that sold it to you
B} The company that manufactured the cup { after all, there was no warning on the cup }
C} Don Knotts
D} You do nothing, realizing that you did after all, order hot cider and it was just an accident

My great grandmother was from the hill country in Kentucky. On year when I was still young my family drove down there to see her. As soon as I walked in the door my great grandma, a big toothless woman, smiled at me as she said in that thick hill country accent, "Come here sonny, grandma wants to hole you real close." I can't tell you how badly I wanted to go home at that moment. :laughing7:

The only time I forgot to fill a hole, was when I found a whole unopened 6 pack of Bud Light Platinums. Not the type of Platinum I was looking for , but it was still good. :P

Got yelled at by a groundskeeper because there were holes everywhere. I held my hand up and told him that Mr. Dasypodidae was responsible and it'd be best if he'd talk to him about the holes. He followed me where Mr. Dasypodidae was digging another hole and the groundskeeper mouth dropped open when he realized Mr. Dasypodidae was actually a Florida Armadillo. All the holes that were dug were uniform in size that no human would dig. I've pointed this out to many groundskeeper after that first run in.
Now you have to have a Park Permit to hunt in the Orlando, FL Parks and I wonder if Mr. Dasypodidae or Florida Armadillo was partly responsible for that ruling.
Aside from people digging holes on the beach, a strong tide can cut the beach and jogging at night without good light is stupid.

The permit rule is stupid...an armadillo doesn't have pockets to carry the permit.

Once again I missed the obvious, this kind of knowledge is invaluable.
