CREEPING FASCISM
Now they want to take away a man's fundamental human right to collect damages from his university because he was injured while horsing around in a kiddie pool filled with gelatin.

Oh, I bet he thinks he's SO clever for coming up with that!

At the risk of incurring Annie's wrath this early in the day, I'd have to say I would have paid to see that Siouxie. ;) *ducks*

Personal responsibility? Huh? What's that?

Think of all the starving Day Care kids that wasted jello could have fed.

Gee, just last night TruTV (the network formerly known as Court TV, which I guess wasn't as Tru as it is now) on its popular show "Beach Patrol" had bikini-clad girls wrestling in a pool filled with Margarita mix. I'm only thankful that no injuries were reported; but since the ever vigil Hermosa Beach task force (to a man) was keeping a close eye on things, I was sure there would be no problem. Unless, of course, one of the bikini-clad girls was caught drinking on the beach, then there might be a problem...

I'm just guessing here, but I'm thinking alcohol may have been involved.
