    How the hell can you be killed by a teddy bear!?

    I'm suprised trousers aren't there. Last time I saw a report like this trousers were high on the list - people fell over and banged their heads while struggling to put them on.

    Lots of scope for Awake! articles here... SPONGES, HOW SAFE ARE THEY? or FLOWER POTS, JUST HARMLESS FUN?

    Is it legal to shoot teddy bears in the UK?

    Maybe if there are less of them. A hunting season maybe?

    Useless fact: the "Teddy Bears" came about when Teddy Roosevelt refused to shoot a bear on a hunting trip and a shop then started selling toy ones as "Teddy's Bear" (which was then shortened).

    An estimated 438,000 people attended A & E after having an accident while walking or simply moving through their house or garden.

    Oh don't I just know it! Did it say how many injuries were caused by fruit - it'd be a comfort to join a support group for people injured by fruit. I am waiting for operation No3 after my close encounter with an apple.

    (And no sly digs about grapes being to blame!)

    So was the lingere garment, "the teddy" named after Theo Roosevelt also?
    (Would have been better if it was called the "J Edgar"?)
