I found this image online and thought to myself...pretty interesting way to present information.
I know this tiny image is hard to see, so simply click on the image itself to go to the gallery page or follow this link.
The information presented is "The number of men in the United States who will die in 2008 as a result of ..." What really threw me was that 5 men are predicted to die from fireworks accidents.
This may be a silly estimate, but it's an even sillier way to go.

Did you notice the other stupid thing to be doing? Diving into shallow water - 47 deaths.
If they did this for women I'll bet neither fireworks or shallow water would be on there at all.

A lot of folks just go to bed and that's that, no wakie upie.
10 percent of all human beings ever born are alive at this very moment, I am grateful to be one of them! Cheers to 2009.

Hmmm... Or maybe they meant "falling down the steps"?

More people die from having foreign objects left behind during surgery, than from shark attacks....
And yet no one runs when the see a doctor approach, no one lynches surgeons, and Spielberg wont make "Docs", "Docs II", "Return of the DOCs".....

What would the sound track feature other than screaming patients?
