GREER, S.C. -- Police in South Carolina say a man is recovering in a Georgia burn center after he chased a rabbit into a power station and was shocked with thousands of volts of electricity.

Hospital spokeswoman Olena Scarboro said Thursday that Joseph Asher of Greenville is in critical condition at the Joseph M. Still Burn Center in Augusta, Ga.

Asher had been listed as a missing person before he walked into a Greer hospital nude and covered with burns. He was later transferred to the Georgia center.

Say Pete, I hates to ruin a good story, but this future Darwin Award recipient was more than likely stealing copper. Utils around the country are having a problem with this.

I do have an open mind however, and it occurs to me that this might be a way to field cook a rabbit quickly. After the rocket scientist is released from hospital, I would like to interview him.

Gee, someone else that remembers them as the Airplane.

White Rabbit - Jefferson Airplane
One pill makes you larger
And one pill makes you small
And the ones that mother gives you
Don’t do anything at all
Go ask Alice
When she’s ten feet tall

And if you go chasing rabbits
And you know you’re going to fall
Tell ‘em a hookah smoking caterpillar
Has given you the call
Call Alice
When she was just small

When men on the chessboard
Get up and tell you where to go
And you’ve just had some kind of mushroom
And your mind is moving slow
Go ask Alice
I think she’ll know

When logic and proportion
Have fallen sloppy dead
And the White Knight is talking backwards
And the Red Queen’s “off with her head!”
Remember what the dormouse said;
“Keep YOUR HEAD
_______________
Keep your head”

Do your own Grace Slick voice

I had considered those possibilities, but it may have just been a cunning and vicious bunny.

Correction: the lyric is “feed your head”, not “keep your head”

Daffy Duck: All right now, let’s go over it once more: now, what are you?
Elmer Fudd: I’m a hunter.
Daffy Duck: And what season is it?
Elmer Fudd: Wabbit season.
Daffy Duck: [pointing to Bugs] And there’s a rabbit! Shoot him! Shoot him!
[Elmer hurries over to blast Bugs, but actually just blasts to smithereens a snowman dummy version of him]
Elmer Fudd: Good heavens! He disintegwated.

IMO that is what happened to the Wabbit when he ran into the power station.....he disintegwated
