I'm gone already.

it's just a flash in the pants.

"The incident is now being investigated by a special state police unit which handles cases of this type."

You mean, cases of this type have happened before? I think we should be told!

These brave boy's are out there risking your life to save their arse.....

HOT Pants !!!

Mines the one that looks like a fire blanket.

Take even the most hardened criminal and light his gibbly-bits on fire and he will beg for mercy to help douse the flames.

Paris cause she could douse the flames in my pants anyday.

Then he must be some kind of liar, liar.

Coat? Not for me thanks, I'm from Newcastle.

Normally the way to put a fire out that you see on the ground is to stamp on it.

Perhaps bought-on by being tazered?

Mines the gas-tight one-piece...

JDM

... tin foil underpants?

...risking my life to save their arses? Hmm?

Anyway, <3 <3 <3 to Lewis for the writing in that article. His utter glee at the opportunity to have a poke at this story was palpable.

If the taze fires your stash, are you still holding? Or do you get off that charge? Isn't against policy to ignite the stash before it has been entered into the evidence locker?

Actually..... Wouldn't a metallised suit block a taser?

*starts gluing old Kit Kat wrappers to jacket*

Paris - that's hot

"it's just a flash in the pants."

Damn! I wanted to say that.

...leads to Tazing Saddles (cough)

Mines the one with 57 Varieties on it.

...but I've got to go discharge the ol' tazer...

He got tazered in the lavatory. Someone came and Yanked his chain. And burned his fizzing out remains.

Oi, where's the IT buttaaargh.. no.. donyyyyyzzznngfh

Did the perp yell out "Hey, watch this!" before going for a blue flamer?

yah, shoulda just billy clubbed his @ss. Or as the liberals want, let the guy go because he's only a criminal because of social/political/economic policies...and libs know all about those crippling policies because *they* created them.

Ethanol food shortages, anyone? Who's been pushing for that since the 70's? Not "oil baron" conservatives...but I don't expect any liberals to ever take the responsibility (another non PC concept these days) of their own actions. Especially when there's record of how many so-called "backwards" conservatives warned them explicitly that this sort of situation was *certain* to occur.

I wonder if El Reg could set up comments to automatically turn any sentence starting with "Mine's the one..." into "I'm an arsehole who thinks I'm funny", and any sentence starting "Paris because..." into "I need to get laid" and then printing their full name and address and a request to be shot?

And just to make a point:

mine's the one that paris hilton is wearing!!1!

N.B. I am quite capable of being an arsehole, I am capable of being funny (I don't intend to be on this occasion), and I do in fact need to get laid, but I manage to hold myself back from the most irritating two phrases in existence.

<---- and thats not!

Where is the 2 icon selection Mr Orlowski has cheekily used before huh?

Burning trousers aside, there's a lot of interesting taser information available on the blog at www.Excited-Delirium.com.

By the way, their stock (TASR) tanked about -20% today.

>poof<

Is why you should shell out extra for a sturdy hip flask! Cheap PVC and thin aluminium ones just don't cut it under fire! Use a sturdy stainless steel Flask!

(Takes quick nip while keeping an eye out for Cop-rogers of the 21st century)

There is no such thing as an "underpant" - the only possible exception being someone who pants under his or her breath!

You don't buy one scissor, one trouser, or one pant. These things come in pairs by definition. And underWEAR is never sold for just one leg.

... wich reads "don't taze me, David" on the back.

Paris because she can appreciate a good discharge

Mine is the one... forget it, I'm too hot already. Because of Paris, y'know.

The transit police can taser passengers for "non compliance":

Mine is the one with the conductive metal lining...

, this little known but prolific splinter group within the PajHamas organisation , achieve their objectives by snagging the big toe as the victim stands on one leg in the process of dressing. This usually results in overbalance and serious fractured limbs/head injuries often result . The discovery and use of fire by the sect is predictable and represents an escalated level of threat .

Good to know that the police are alert , prepared , and most of all that members of the public are willing to " have a go " in order to thwart the evil of ...........etc

a google search reveals more..........

Don't bother, they're made of plastic, now.

The last time this happened to me, I was in no mood for jokes.

(Yeah, the one with the burnt gerbile in the pocket)

Last time I checked it would be a Provincial unit not a "state" unit.

USA = States (oh, and Puerto Rico and Iraq)

Canada = Provinces and Territories

France = Departments

Germany = Lander

Australia = States and Territories

New Zealand = Had a provincial era, sadly forgotten.

etc. etc.

Now isn't that Yankee Doodle Dandy.
