IRONY LESSONS FOR THE DAY

Irony 1

We are told not to judge all Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics.

Then on the other hand, we are also expected to judge all Gun Owners by the actions of a few lunatics.

Irony 2

The Food Stamp Program, administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, is proud to be distributing this year the greatest amount of free Meals and Food Stamps ever ... to 47.5 million people, according to the most recent figures released in April 2013.

Meanwhile, the National Park Service, administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, asks us to "Please Do Not Feed the Animals." Their stated reason for the policy is because "The animals will grow dependent on handouts and will not learn to take care of themselves."

Irony 3

Actor Paul Walker and co-star Vin Diesel starred in six Fast and Furious movies and have been working on a seventh one. In the films they were driving different makes of cars at breakneck speeds and survived spectacular crashes with nary a scratch.

In real life, Paul Walker died about 3:30 p.m. today as a passenger in a 2005 Porsche Carrera GT that was speeding in Valencia, California when it crashed into a light pole and tree and burst into flames. Death for both occupants was fast and furious.

Thus ends today's lessons in irony.
