It never ceases to amze me how many people beleive you can go down a chimney
to get into a house. I guess they figure if Santa can do it so can they.

I’m just dumbfounded at how stupid some people are.

Musta’ voted for “O”.

At least she won’t have to face Obamacare.

[barb-tex]

She still believed that Sandy Clause doesn't really come down the Chimney

Dr. Jacquelyn Kotarac, 49, first tried to get into the house with a shovel,

I doubt her tunneling efforts would have been any more succesful.

What a horrible way to die; what was she thinking? Photo link.

[keat]

She’ll hold a special place in his hearth forever.

Ah, the Doc got the flue, eh?

Here's a link to a local newspaper and a pic too.

Police: Alcohol may be factor in doctor's death

[sodpoodle]

Almost posted this article - then I checked her patient reviews - two of which were really bad and have been removed.

Stupid things supposedly intelligent people do:
1. Attempting to climb down inside chimneys for absurd reasons.
2. ???

[Bronzy]

Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ey
Chim chim cher-ee!

Everybody keep in mind that this woman, who tried to climb down a chimney after failing to break in with a shovel, then got stuck and died, is a DOCTOR. A medical doctor. Think about that the next time you accept your doctor’s advice as the word of God.

I was initially tempted to make some sort of humorous comment, but after thinking about it, I am just too sad about this story.

What a horrible way to die.

[Spunky]

"While she was trying to break in, the man she was pursuing escaped unnoticed from another exit "to avoid a confrontation," authorities said."

How many days before he came back? Bakersfield gets real hot that body must have really stunk the place up. YUK! Crazy woman!

[StormEye]

Just imagine if you were on of her patients (I’m assuming she was an medical doctor.) What must they be thinking about the medical treatment they received from her? I’d start looking for a second opinion.

Darwin Award candidate!

"Dr. Jacquelyn Kotarac...slid feet first down the flue...."

...at which point she diagnosed herself as suffering from a severe case of santa claustrophobia.

Look lady, knock on the door. If he doesn't want to see you, go away. Go home. Grow up.

[FormerACLUmember]

An attractive woman, a professional, but a bad alcoholic. What a horrible, horrible way to die. I am rarely freaked out, but this did it.

[MediaMole]

While it’s unfortunate she died from this idiocy, she did win the 2010 “Diapered Astronaut” award for crazy stalker chicks.
