Jody Mason of Olympia is locked to the Washington State Grange office building Tuesday to protest war. He intended to chain himself to a federal Department of Energy office building, but discovered he was at the wrong location.

OLYMPIA -- A man spent hours chained to the wrong building Tuesday in an ill-planned effort to protest war with Iraq, police said. Jody Mason padlocked himself to an entrance of the Washington State Grange building at 924 Capitol Way S., thinking it was a sub-office of the U.S. Department of Energy.

Welcome to Olympia! ;-)

ROTFLMAO 8-)

[Charles Henrickson]

Chain, chain, chain . . .
Chain of fools.

[boomop1]

A not too smart bomb.

[mhking]

"Hold muh beer 'n watch this!" PING....

If you want on or off this list, please let me know!

[gramho12]

Oh, Man - this made my day - a great laugh relief. What a twerp!

[dead]

They at least could have left him there for a few days.

I would also have written "Moron" on his forehead with magic marker and set up a delicious buffett just inches out of his reach.

[null and void]

Police officers used heavy-duty bolt cutters to free Mason.

OK, but why???

[Eva]

I wonder if this guy was another student from Evergreen.

[N. Theknow]

Howdy Stranger, I'm a Granger.

[HamiltonJay]

Stupid is as stupid does.

[Charles Henrickson]

Jody Mason,

You are . . .

THE WEAKEST LINK!

[prairiebreeze]

He didn't have the key?? I think they should have left him chained there until his bladder exploded.

[joesnuffy]

What if they had a anti war protest
And nobody showed up

[Commiewatcher]

I lost my coffee just reading the title but you made my morning. No charge for the keyboard.

[HairOfTheDog]

HA! - I am so proud of my Home Town!

[Semper Paratus]

"He asked for help because he didn't have the key,"

LOL, that's great. I missing those stupid human shield threads now.

[South Hawthorne]

 

Finding that one of your opinions coincides with one held by a guy like this is an excellent indicator that you should reconsider your stance.

[Mrs.O'Strategery]

Would you please put me on your ping list? Thanks!

[Olydawg]

Ahhh, those radical leftie Greener-types ... one of the many things I miss about Olympia

[SquirrelKing]

[Ramius]

Good grief. Evergreen strikes again, methinks. Though, showing the basic ability to navigate off campus means this must be a grad student.

[Drango]

~SNORT...I just blew coffee all over my computer screen.

[Spruce]

...one end of the chain around his neck and the other to a door...

I would have loved to YANK open and SLAM close that door all day.

[Tijeras_Slim]

Police officers used heavy-duty bolt cutters to free Mason.

Doesn't anyone see the obvious NWO connotations here?

[MHGinTN]

My thoughts exactly!

[Ramius]

or: "It may yet be that the only purpose of your life is merely to serve as a warning to others."

[Mr Ducklips]

"Oh, it's 249 Capitol Way S. Darn!"

[SquirrelKing]

"Police officers used heavy-duty bolt cutters to free Mason."

OFFICER: Sir, we'll have to use these heavy-duty bolt cutters to free you.
MASON: It'll grow back right?

[per loin]

I wonder if this guy was another student from Evergreen.

My first thought too.

[freedomson]

I would also have written "Moron" on his forehead with magic marker and set up a delicious buffett just inches out of his reach.

BWHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

That's one of your best, just hilarious.

[MotleyGirl70]

LOL! I can't even type. Oh man! That is soooo funny!

[concerned about politics]

Grange employees found him about 11:45 a.m. Tuesday and asked what he was doing.

"Oh, wow, Dude. Like, where am I, man? Wow. Far out."

"He asked for help because he didn't have the key,"

ROTFLMAO!!!!

[Chad Fairbanks]

Like I told someone else once - Evergreen has Killer Weed... it explains A LOT...

[freedomson]

A new word for the freepspeak lexicon; DEFICIT

[TheErnFormerlyKnownAsBig]

Police officers used heavy-duty bolt cutters to free Mason.

It'll take more than bolt cutters to free this man from the chains that bind him.

He looked up the address in the phone book huh? Yellow book!

[gridlock]

My God! They're EVERYWHERE!!!

(BTW: What kind of sick puppy picks up on that one?)

[HairOfTheDog]

I think I dated this guy. ;~D

[SquirrelKing]

Wow! Is that you in the picture on your profile? One tough lady!

[Semper Paratus]

~SNORT...I just blew coffee all over my computer screen.

That story does qualify as worth of a "Danny Thomas Coffee Spit".

[Grampa Dave]

Thanks!

Instead of cutting him loose, they should have used their own hand cuffs and leg restraints. Then left him there for the duration.

[Ingtar]

I wonder if the police would have let him go if he had been chained to an abortion clinic?

[Grampa Dave]

A Grange bump!:)

[Chad Fairbanks]

No. He'd have been arrested as a 'Domestic Terrorist'...

[MotleyGirl70]

Nope, not me. Third time I've been asked that. I have to change it...right after I get finished laughing from your post.

[FrdmLvr]

Police officers used heavy-duty bolt cutters to free Mason. "He asked for help because he didn't have the key," Olympia police Cmdr. Steve Nelson said.

This was their mistake. They should be letting these numbskulls get themselves out of their own messes.

[Ramius]

I wonder if the police would have let him go if he had been chained to an abortion clinic?

Only if he had chained himself to a Chiropractor's clinic by mistake...

[Chad Fairbanks]

Let them chew their arms off LOL... "but... but... I don't eat meat!"

[Grampa Dave]

I figured that you would ask this question:I wonder if this guy was another student from Evergreen?
