| Psychopath Registered: Sep. 00  | U.S. Couple Sues Over Flaming Pop-Tart PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) - The popular breakfast pastry Pop-Tarts has become a burning legal issue in New Jersey. The Philadelphia Inquirer reported on Saturday that a New Jersey couple are suing the Kellogg Co. for $100,000 in damages caused to their home when an unattended Pop-Tart allegedly burst into flames inside their toaster. Brenda Hurff of Washington Township put a cherry Pop-Tart in the toaster and left the house to drive her children to preschool, the newspaper said. When she returned 10 to 20 minutes later, smoke was pouring from the home and firefighters were already on the scene. ``I never thought a Pop-Tart could turn into a blowtorch,'' Hurff's attorney, Mauro Casci, told the newspaper. ``Did it pop? Did it not pop? Who knows?'' The local fire company listed the cause of the blaze as ''unattended food.'' A Kellogg spokesman declined to comment on the lawsuit but told the Inquirer that the cereal maker's products were safe and do not cause fires. Pop-Tarts, which are filled with fruit preserves, carry a warning on the box advising customers not to leave the toaster unattended due to a possible risk of fire. The lawsuit, filed this week in Gloucester County Superior Court by Hurff and her husband, also named toaster-maker Black & Decker Corp. as a defendant. The newspaper said the appliance maker had no comment on the suit. In 1995, Kellogg paid $2,400 to a Springfield, Ohio, man who said that a fire started from a Pop-Tart had damaged his home, the Inquirer said. The man's lawyer had considered calling as a witness humorist Dave Barry, who had written two years earlier that he caused a pair of strawberry Pop-Tarts to ignite by putting them into a toaster and holding the lever down for six minutes, the newspaper said. --- That yummy goodness is just too good.

| Psychopath Registered: May. 01 | Thats the problem with society today..we protect the idiots from removing themselves from the gene pool. Thats why there are so many problems. Like people need a warning 'coffee is hot, don't put it between your legs' or 'shit in the toaster can catch fire' are people really this dumb? "Just think how dumb the average person is.

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Sep. 00 | Argh, I love how it is now the job of coroporations to protect us from ourselves. You are using something in your house which heats up to a few hundred degrees (yeah, the heater elements in toasters get that hot) so you decide to leave while it is on. You do not deserve to be in the same gene pool with the rest of humanity. If hate were people, I'd be China  I can levitate birds. No one cares. | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Nov. 00 | I picture a mandatory test for all High School seniors. Put the person in a sealed room. One wall is covered with buttons, switches, and knobs. All they have to do is follow written instructions on the wall. Follow them correctly and a door opens and you go home. Don't follow the instructions, and the room fills with poisonous gas and you die. And the instructions will be REALLY easy. Like push red button once. Flip green switch twice.

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Sep. 00 | Dent- that test is wrong and will never happen because prejudice against ANY group is bad and ... a) It's prejudiced against people who can't control their hands. b) It's prejudiced against illiterate people. Just because they're in high school doesn't mean they can read. And just because they can't read doesn't make them a bad people it just means that they they've never been loved or had a caring teacher. c) it's prejudiced against people who can't stand to reach the buttons be them paralyzed or just short. d) It's prejudiced against people who are colorblind e) it's prejudiced against those who are too weak to push a button or pull a lever. and f) We live in a country where no one should die since everyone is great and perect and has WONDERFUL things to offer this society. Death has to be bad because we never fully use these people's potential (just like how they should all go to college). For some reason this conversation reminded me of a statistic that I read regarding how Standardized tests are biased towards ethnic group so a test was devised to see how people in different regions analyze things and they ask people in inner cities the definition for the word DUST and 60% of them defined dust as a drug and I mean seriously, it's DUST if you don't know what DUST is and need to revert to a slang term then yes, you are fundamentally stupid.

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | Can the mother bathe herself? She's clearly rocket scientist, because feeding small children Pop Tarts is like giving them a kilo of blow. But she's smart enough to realize that she should sue someone, because, really, when you think about it for a long long long time, up to the point when yourears hurt, she's really not to blame. Ponderous, effing ponderous. I hate this job! I hate this goddamn job and I don't need it!!!  capnfudge@opieanthony.com People say that I neglect my responsibilities But I don't mind cause I'll live longer. Need Adoption???

| Psychopath Registered: Feb. 01 | quote: YES SHE IS!! At some point people need to take responsibility for their own idiocy. Anyone with any life experience knows not to leave the oven or anything like that on and leave. And how much of a hurry are you that you cant wait 90 seconds for your pop tarts to toast? And remember that girl that called in to Ron and Fez who was babysitting when the kids put some pop tarts in the microwave for five minutes? STUPID! A piece of chicken 5 times as large as two pop tarts doesnt take 5 minutes. Me, sometimes I take a risk and put my pop tarts in the microwave for 5 or 7 seconds,... but i stand there and watch it. In conclusion, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRGGGHHHH!
