Funny!

Whenever a new stop light was installed at an intersection where I grew up, you knew that someone had been in a bad accident there, most likely someone died.

With the weird warnings on labels, you can bet that most of the companies experienced a lawsuit on the issue that they put in the warning!

Yes I'm sure some lawsuits were involved but that's a sad commentary on how litigious our society is don't you think?
