One of the more incongrous whacky headlines of the year, and just in under the wire, is this one appearing on BBC News on 12/24 (that’s 24 December for those of you on the other side of the pond).

“Festive drinking deaths warning”

I can’t even imagine what makes a drinking death festive. Maybe the deceased is draped in garland and flocked with fake snow?

Of course, what do you expect from the people who brought you “Miss Peru beat off 106 contestants to take the crown from 2003 winner”?

Happy Holidays, everyone!
