Yesterday it rained a lot, and, not to my surprise, this rain led to proof once more that Darwin was right and evolution, to some extent, still works. At least, ask to the three people that died yesterday, to my knowledge, near or around my little bubble of existence, due to their idiotic behavior.
One guy made me get home 40min late by trying to guess who was stronger, the man or the machine, but the locomotive won, again, and trains were diverted to a secondary railway while he was detached from the ground. The other two blocks followed the stereotype of a complete jackass: English, young, and drunk, though being English and drunk are most of the times synonyms.
It seems that they didn't pay attention to any evident signal, neither heavenly nor mundane, and had a bath in Salou at 2:00AM in a beach they didn't know at all, while the furious sea was hitting the coast. Toll: 2 dead. Every year, the same thing; the same kind of people, the very same places. They wanted to be the coolest and, yes, they are now!
Actions have reactions, and consequences. Probability and the law of large numbers are powerful, and can't be easily beaten, if not by intelligence, which those guys obviously lacked. Even in our Disneyland's Wonderful World, the difference between life and death can be just as narrow as the edge of a coin. I know it.
Today it rains again, let's see what happens!
