A candidate for the Darwin Awards if ever there was one....

Quote:

FORT WORTH -- Here is something to add to your list of things to not use as a back scratcher. At about 3 a.m. Sunday, Jorge Alberto Espinal, 44, of Fort Worth, was outside playing poker with some friends when he went inside the house in the 3500 block of Montague Street. While inside, Espinal got an itch on his back. To scratch it, he chose a .22 caliber revolver. About 10 minutes later, he went back out and announced that he had shot himself. "The two witnesses said they didn't believe him until they saw blood coming down his back," the report says. Police interviewed Espinal before he was transported by ambulance to John Peter Smith Hospital. He was released at 6 a.m. Sunday, a worker at the hospital said.

He's lucky his ear wasn't itching.

Perhaps they should have been instead of his back.

We wouldn't have to worry any more about him procreating.

And that's a good thing.
